Such a long season of what looks like not very exciting games tbh. I agree that the talking heads would be doing us a favor to put us at 2 or 3. Since Michigan and Ohio State only have 1 game vs. Penn State that they could actually screw up I think it is likely they both go 11-0. Alabama most likely will lose a game vs. Texas or LSU and so where they start is not as important. I think you want to finish #1 so you get the playoff game closest to where your school is. I think in an ideal world Penn State upsets one of the 2 and the person they upset wins the big game. Then we go into the SECCG as #1 again against the winner of LSU Bama. In an even more perfect world Bama loses to Texas, beats LSU and goes into the SECCG as 11-1 and we beat them and knock them out of the playoff.
That's how I envision it. As far as the playoff goes not too concerned about any of the teams as long as we make it there. Our biggest challenge is not slipping up to anyone in the regular season.
Almost a week now and the ESPN Fan Boys have yet to pontificate/bloviate on the Northwestern debacle??? I suppose when there is real fire they'll wait until the whole house burns down before reporting the obvious. Just the facts would be refreshing. There is so much conjecture....how is though, that a HC does not know what's going on in the locker room??? Maybe it's a BIG 10 thing.....Jo-Pa claimed not to know???
I don't like the fact that the talking heads at ESPN are constantly undervaluing UGA and overvaluing their pet teams but at the same time, I am sort of glad they are because we saw last season what happens when a group of young gifted athletes feel disrespected! Go DAWGS!!
Agree. Essentially it’s ours to win IF we don’t shoot Ourselves in the foot by dropping a regular season game we should have won.
The only really hard questions I have at this juncture for really Any of our three starting QBs is do they have the leadership skills ? And also can they handle tough adversity ?
All three bring their own individual skill sets. And all three are pretty darn good in their own right. Barring the injury bug, ( Please No !!) we have More weapons on Offense than Stets did.
And I’m thinking our Defense could be one of if not The best we’ve seen in the Kirby era, collectively. But I agree with you, and you made very good comments. Just get to and Win the SECCG and we’re In !!
To me Bama is our greatest challenge if we meet them in the SECCG. OSU lost Stroud and allot of their best receivers. Michigan is All the usual hype from the talking heads !!
I think we’ll know allot about our Dawgs after the SC game because their gonna come in and play pretty tough I think. IF we beat them by a high score the Auburn game will be of less concern to me.
If we barely slide by the GameCocks then my concern level will be greatly elevated vs Auburn !! Both of those games Especially SC should give us fans a pretty decent idea of what this team is capable of. Go Dawgs !!
And Michigan's QB couldn't even beat TCU last year, and the LSU QB didn't fare any better against UGA.Just because a team has a returning QB doesn't guarantee he'll be better, I've seen it go the opposite way many times. Have a strong year and the next season receive high expectations and not even come close to living up to those expectations. It takes a TEAM not just a QB.A good QB Is almost irrelevant when your defense can't keep the opponent out of the end zone. Your QB better be a superstar if your defense gives up 35-40+ points almost every game. JJ McCarthy is no Joe Burrow or Stetson Bennett..not even close. Michigan has supposedly had the best OL in the NCAA the past 2 years. 1st year The UGA defense dominated that super OL, then last year TCU did the same thing against that "great" OL. I'm not impressed in the least with Michigan or their QB..GoDAWGS!
That's generally how the media works, these days. Cover for the ones you love...and expose the ones you don't...even if you have to make crap up. Like a "speeding issue at UGA"...Lol.
They...the media...couldn't be anymore transparent and there are STILL those that would believe em. Because, it's in their immediate interests to do so. But, what happens when they come for you and yours? How do you fight back against a lie...when the truth is being buried faster than it can be dug up. People better wake the hell up, is all I can say.
Go Dawgs...7 more weeks till Kickoff. Tune this stuff out and keep your head down, while they're shooting at you. Pay em no mind, just like Kirby teaches.
The season is almost upon us and then it will be in everyone's interest (except the AJC and clickbait media) to focus on the games.
2 weeks to go....dah dee dah.
Kirk Herbstreit and Rece Davis, two butt hurt idiots from Ohio State and Alabama who have seen their worlds turned upside down. ESPN is a shadow of it's former self and the continued employment of these two morons shows just how desperate they are. They are so Disney woke that they should drop the "S" from ESPN and replace it with a "C" for cartoon.
