Kirby Smart: Georgia players ‘slowly’ turning focus toward Orange Bowl CFP Semifinal with Michigan
ATHENS — Georgia football isn’t anywhere close to being ready to take on red-hot Michigan in the Orange Bowl College Football Playoff Semifinal, but the Bulldogs don’t have to be at this stage.

Oh yeah, we have a game in 2 weeks!
It sure will be nice to have less down time when the 8 or 12 team playoffs emerge. I think this is too much time between the end of season and the playoffs. Let's get the boys focusing in on the Wolverines!
Have you seen some of the stuff coming out of the Wolverine fans? They were ready to fire Harbaugh and now we shouldn't be on the same field. Shut them the Heck up guys and take every bit of frustration out. Us real fans are behind you 1000% and know that this team can win it all.
IDK, we view the players as our representatives and gladiators, but they are actually kids enrolled in college. Final exams were this week and the Christmas holiday is at the end of next week. As frustrating as it may be for us fans to wait so long between games, it is undoubtedly a good thing for our players to have necessary time off to take care of things outside of football. 🤣
Michigan who? Yes, a bit of unfinished business. With all that has been going on, Harbaugh is in a football dream world up there in Michigan. Hopefully, it has all gone to his head so the Dawgs can bring him back to earth and reality on Dec. 31. Kirby says the Dawgs are dialed in for a win...okay...let's get at it. Two back-to-back losses is not acceptable! Leave it all on the playing field, Kirby. Expect the unexpected with Harbaugh.
UGA needs to be completely healed. The time off is good....this time.
Excited to get this thing going! I know these players want to go out and dominate Michigan. I am excited to see some of the changes being made - I expect fire and brimstone to rain down on the opposition ! GO DAWGS!
So pumped for this game! Excited to see practice starting.
Fix what needs to be fixed and play ANGRY and let's do these Wolverines!
Go Dawgs! Hate on Michigan!
Mike, Why do you constantly get your little digs in regarding Bennett as you did AGAIN in this article? It’s totally amazing how you are routinely tearing him down, usually in a sneaky and **** way. Why don’t you mention any of the numerous negatives regarding JT like he was 1 for 11 on 3rd down conversions against Cincinnati and he threw for 1 TD total against Cincinnati and Clemson with 2 INTs….while Stetson had 3 TDs and 2 INTs against the #1 team in the country? To be clear, I only want Kirby to start the best QB and I sincerely don’t have a preference. I just get so pi$$ed-off with your malarkey and non-stop efforts to counter CKS’s decisions. I believe Kirby is likely at all the practices and knows which QB is ready to lead our team. Please quit undermining the coaching staff and instilling doubt with Dawg fans regarding our coaches and QBs. You truly don’t have any more of a clue as to what is going on than I do so stop the BS.
Tom Brady is one of the least mobile QB's in the history of football. He gets sacked but he also has 7(?) rings. Why? Because he knows where his 2nd , 3rd and 4th reads are. He knows where to go with the ball at all times and when to throw it away. While SBIV is a decent runner he seems to get tracked down in the pocket for sacks more than he should. He is a 1 read, then improvise then throw the ball up when the pressure closes in. Somehow the multiple read route still seems like the better option.
I hope all the UGA players have been instructed to wear their masks all the time between now and the games. With players breaking for Xmas and dispersing to the 4 corners of the country it would be just like UGA "luck" to have guys test positive when they return and create player group shortages for the most important games of the season.
UGA 49 MICH 6
Sounds like your boy has an “injury” excuse in the only (2) games he’s played against teams with winning records. Thus, according to you the 2 TD total in 2 games was a huge accomplishment. BUT, you blasted Bennett for poor play last year against Florida when he played with a dislocated shoulder. Of course Bennett spotted us a 14 point lead in the first quarter before getting injured, but you don’t seem to remember facts and constantly ruminate over his Florida loss. Talk about biased and clearly clueless.
I love SBIV. He is a good QB. But we have seen him for the better part of 2 seasons. And he played a season at JC. He is who he is. We have seen his ceiling. We have not seen JTD ceiling. It may not even be as high as SBIV's. But we have seen SBIV vs AL twice and FU once and he hasn't gotten it done. Saban changed QB's twice vs UGA. If CKS rides SBIV for 2 more games Bama will win again. You need a QB who will pick Bama apart. Sometimes to pick a team apart you have to hit your 2nd and 3rd reads. By then SBIV is running and scrambling.
It's time to get back to work buckle down and take care of business. Go Dawgz!😎
