TCU quarterback Max Duggan plans to ‘thrive’ amid Georgia defensive chaos
LOS ANGELES — Max Duggan sounds very much like a quarterback who knows he’s in for the challenge of his lifetime.
Comments
I guess we'll see which QB feels the best about "being comfortable being uncomfortable". Two "resilient" teams going at it on Monday. Which one is the hungriest and most resilient?
My bet is TCU goes up tempo as much as possible to wear out and slow down the likes of Carter and company. I also expect Duggan to run more than he did against Michigan.
Also, concerning Washington's health...From The Athletic....“It’s fine. It got better throughout the (week),” Washington said of the injury. “It’s up to the doctors and (head coach Kirby Smart) and things like that. It’s their decision on what they see.”
Georgia’s coaches like what they have seen from his progress.
“He’s gotten just as many practice reps as he gets in a normal week,” Georgia tight end coach Todd Hartley said. “It’s no different now than it has been. We don’t talk about injuries, but we are very pleased with the preparation of Darnell Washington for this game.”
I'd say he's a GO. We need him for blocking as much as anything.
I watched Duggan try to carry his team on his back in their conference championship game. I was convinced that he would have won the Heisman if they had been able to manage to win that game. I just don't think he can "carry" his team that way against UGA. We just have to win the turnover battle against their opportunistic defense. I think it will take a little time to adjust to their unusual defense, but Kent State and Mississippi State both played versions of that defense, so we have a little experience against it. I think our defense will be able to adjust to their offensive style as well. Will have to contain Duggan's running. I suspect that our need to cover tOSU's multiple NFL caliber receivers negated our ability to "spy" Stroud and stop his "runs". We seemed unprepared for him to run. I think that the game plan will account for Duggan's running.
I expect TCU to come out fired up and play inspired football. It will probably be close at halftime, but the Dawgs will wear them down and TCU will not be able to keep up. Dawgs 38-17.
Take care of your business, my Dawg warriors! Don’t lose focus! Go get after them on every play! Eat, Big Dawg! EAT!
GO DAWGS!
BEAT TCU!
Agreed!
Congrats on your recent comments badge.
Go Dawgs!
TCU is living the DREAM.....the sooner we strike that DREAM with physical hits, smart decisions, and consistency, the sooner The DAWGS control the game. If we play the way we are capable of playing, TCU will realize quickly that they are in for the fight of their lives just to keep it somewhat respectable. When that happens Kirby will be playing everybody that traveled, which is a very great opportunity for our young guys!
