Georgia defense knows how it can slow Auburn quarterback Bo Nix
Georgia football faces Auburn quarterback Bo Nix in an interesting matchup.
Comments
I didn't know he was that fast. Fast? Yes, but...
22 mph fast. Wow!
That's hard to deal with. He is a very dangerous quarterback. Auburn is a dangerous team. It seems to me that many Georgia fans and pundits are overlooking them and/or mostly just wondering whether the Dawgs will or won't run up the score on 'em.
Still, I don't think he has faced team speed like ours, at least not this season. As always much depends on our D-Line vs the Barn's O-Line. How's that going to stack up for Mr. Nix?
I'll be happy with a W.
Go, Dawgs!
There is no way that Nix is as fast as Arian Smith. NO WAY!
Smith has been clocked at 4.21. Nix's best has been 4.71.
Not 100% on this, but the way that reads, those are not his current stats. Looks like (including that baby-face) that's all pre-college.
It seems Auburn has a 4.2 guy every year. The Legend Of Bo Nix grows taller on down the line.
Yep, definitely should not overlook Auburn and luckily this year it seems like we aren't overlooking anybody.
Our key seems to be to put the throttle-down. That may be an obvious statement, but you can bet that Auburn will be giving it absolutely everything on every play especially at home and conservative isn't going to cut it. If we get to a 14 pt lead, he have to keep attacking or they'll come back and beat us.
Were not players so let's be real. We are gonna absolutely "beat the dog crap" outta Awbarn and Bo Picks. Our DL and LB will not let him extend and create like he did against LSU and his pocket will be collapsing and he will be throwing off kilter and be on his back all night. We are running away with this one something like 37-10. I don't know if we go up 21 in the 1st quarter again, but it will be over by half time. Lock of the week.
We didn't force a turnover you say!! Well, we blocked a punt and recovered it for a score! That ought to count for something!
Hey Connor are you trying to give Auburn something to hang up in their locker room. We've been very fortunate in containing Bo Nix in the last 2 meetings, but he's a great athlete who made LSU look bad. I've been watching Auburn ruin our season since the mid 60's. We've got to stay elite to beat Auburn in Auburn.
Posting the the most obvious way to stop another bo at auburnt.. Shut down the offense and keep nix on the sideline. You can't score being a sideline cheerleader.. And this defense is very capable of doing just that to auburnt..GoDAWGS!
I understand how a PLAYER can have 3.0 sacks. But how does a TEAM get anything but a full sack. How do the Dawgs get 2.5 sacks, as a team? You either sack a quarterback, or you don't. Other than a player on the same team, who else gets credit for 1/2 a sack? The other team? The refs? I don't see the point in using a decimal to indicate team sacks.
Posted same screenshot on a different article lol no way nix hits 22mph with a 4.71 40 time, only at auburn..
Usain Bolts fastest time is slightly over 27mph, for a gold medal winner. NO WAY nix even comes close to bolt. 4.6 40 converts to less than 22mph, nix at 22mph running a 4.7? 😂
Somewhere btween 4.2 and 4.7 is the truth. I've seen the kid run and he's defenitely not 4.7. Most of our linebackers arre that fast or faster. I 'll guarantee you he'd beat most of our linebackers. Maybe not Tindall and Anderson. BUt there's no way he's 4.4 or better.
Or, maybe Auburn doesn't even score 14. Don't get me wrong, I'm not taking that for granted (although if ever there was a defense...) I just don't see how you can say they'll definitely beat us if we don't build a bigger lead than 14 points.
Yes. I had this same thought.
