Bravo !!! Bravo !!! Very well said !!! I Love ole Kirby but he’s in deep denial !! A bad air of complacency has gotten into the Dawgs program. That’s a failure on Kirby and his coaching staff. He has often spoke of being elite.
It’s Very obvious after Both Bye weeks there was little to no change. So what are these Highly paid coaches doing ?? It’s their Job to have these young players prepared. But week after week in particular on the O they come out flat. Even the vaunted Defense looked lost today, Rebs WRs were just running through them like a back yard game.
It was a nightmare for Dawgs fans to behold. No it was far from being All on Beck though he sure wasn’t much help. This was a Team Effort LOSS !!
Guards have injuries but that’s the excuse for tackles? We don’t have a left tackle. He did nothing
Worst OL of the CKS era. I remember when UGA recruited Greene. He is built like an OG but said "I'm not a OG I am an OT". He will play OG at the next level. He was exposed today. Ran out of 5*'s stacked up from Pittman when Mims left. It is starting to show. Losing #77 (RIP) hurt this team.
UGA has been out- recruited at WR since Pickens. BBowers covered it up. Fully exposed today. A bunch of 3*'s aren't enough. Will be even harder to recruit WR's with the Bobo O and no proven QB in '25 (look for a TP add). Makes you wonder if CKS decided to crack open the NIL to get 2 high 4* WR's committed this week for '25 and '26.
UGA has also been out-recruited at QB. And left behind. You need a QB that can run like a RB in CFB. If he can't he better be a 5* and play like it. Pro style O can only work with a dominant OL and very high level O skill position players. A running QB can cover up a multitude of deficiencies. AL, LSU and tOSU all have 5* QB's committed in '25.
Bobo is gone. Just watched AL dominate LSU by throwing the ball all over the field to the AL RB's. Didn't see UGA run a single RB screen, wheel route or jet sweep today. I think the UGA playbook only has 5 plays in it.
Kirby will have a hard time giving the media the Nick Saban treatment anymore. This UGA team has not been close to the UGA standard. Too many young players?
UGA has been signing 25-30 player recruiting classes for the last 4 (?) years. Harder to predict when (or if) young players will be able to compete at a UGA standard level. Meanwhile guys get hurt and there is no experienced depth ready to step in. May make sense to see UGA use the portal more to add experienced and mature players and recruit smaller classes.
CBeck's fall has been unprecedented. Shows you how important protection is to a QB. At every level. Not sure he can even play at the NFL level. Though I doubt anyone wants to see him back next season. See above about immobile QB's.
Missed blocks....dropped passes....fumbl'itis.…inaccurate passes....lack of urgency....fatigue in the 4th....blown defensive assignments....missed tackles.…poor pursuit....red zone issues.
IMO....This ain't UGA Football. It's sloppy, and if Kirby doesn't see that, he's in denial. These are fundamental failures. There's a weak link, somewhere in the coaching staff and on-field leadership....that wasn't there, the last few years.
The question to ask, is...."What is different about this team vs the previous 3 teams?". Is it Coley? T-Rob? What or Who is different? Besides the obvious lack of an experienced RB, Bowers and McConkey...it's basically the same offense without consistent playmakers.
As absurd as it seems....I'm beginning to wonder, if this unit has reached it's peak. They should've matured by now. The inconsistencies, seem to indicate otherwise. In fact...their inconsistencies are the only thing, they've been consistent about. Lol
I don't know what the answer is....except to have faith in the process and keep choppin' wood. The talent is there, the coaching is there and the support is there.....but, where's the desire.
With things being the way they are...I'm not gonna critique the quarterback position, till everybody else on the offense, gets their act together. It wouldn't be fair...and, it wouldn't be accurate.
Next week is do or die. Maybe this group of Dawgs "needs" their back to the wall, in order to perform. Lol...every team has it's own personality.
Go get em Big Red. It ain't over, till it's over.
I just don’t get the love affair with Yurosek. He can’t and won’t block and catches maybe half the passes thrown at him. I can only figure Delp is either hurt or has seriously P’d off Smart or Bobo.
I questioned why we picked up a one-and-done tight end from a lesser conference and now I question why he gets the passes.
And good grief, he is a terrible blocker.
Bobo is the problem. He's making us look like a richt team again...no creative anything...no screens, nothing to change ge up anything..last yr there was some carry over from monken, this yr even that's gone
Give some of the Freshman offensive lineman a chance. The tackles on offense ****. Except #57. These offensive lineman is out of shape. That buddy system doesn't work when you get to the top of college football. You got to get better coaches!!. The Defensive lineman are great. But you have hole in the slot cornerback. #8 is terrible covering the slot and lost . The Defensive Back has to man up on the cover.. Ole Miss gave it to the pass Defense with all the passes in the middle of the field. Play $24 in the slot and move #4 to the safety position
I can't believe Beck is sitting there smiling in Q4 when he should be upset and rallying the troops. Lack of real leadership is what I call it.
One of the most uninspiring and pathetic offensive performances that we've played all season. We got outplayed and out-executed on both sides of the ball. And Dart was hobbling!! Then a freshman QB comes in and torches the defense going 5/6 and leading the Rebels to a TD.
The DAWGS have reached a new low and may not recover. Even if we make the playoffs, I don't anticipate us going very far.
Greene plays L guard like a statue—they blow by him like he didn't exist. Don't think he's a Div 1 offensive guard.
You know it's bad when I didn't see one post get a thumbs down! Dang the 'dawgnation crew' all agrees this week. The punter and place kicker are the only ones exonerated…..the rest are cardboard
Delp [TE]…and, Greene [LT], flat out missed blocks on the left edge, that resulted in blindside **** sacks. Ya didn't see that kind of ineptitude on the offensive line, over the last few years. Lol
They were all over Beck from the 2nd series, on. Lol...he didn't stand a chance, with only 2 or 3 seconds to drop and throw.
If there was a question I'd like to ask...it would be as follows...."Why didn't Beck run the ball more?". The whole time, Beck backed Bennett up,...the narrative was, that Beck could run the ball, too. So far, Bennett would've run circles around Beck.
Is Beck injured, in some way?
Saban would have put Gunner in late in the 3rd quarter, when we still had a chance.
The players share in the blame on this game. But this was mostly poor coaching. The entire offensive staff has taken a drastic step backwards this year. Searles was not impressive when he was on Richt's staff. The receivers were a lot more consistent after Coley left to go work with Fisher at A&M. Bobo is Bobo. Falls in love with certain plays. On third and 4 everyone will have 15 to 20 yard routes. No creativity. Same playbook. Defensively the secondary is definitely not benefitting from the new coaches. Even Starks, who is one of the best players in the nation previously, looks lost. Then the scheme. Dropping Walker and Williams into coverage. What exactly happened last night?
