Georgia is about to clear the stadium by the way they are playing to am inferior opponent.
Lot of angst on here, and I get it.
First Half comments: Myself, I'm not as worried about the offense as a total package. If you subtract three turnovers and an absolutely horrific day from McConkey (what the heck happened!? and, BTW, those two dropped long balls were actually really good throws by SBIV, IMHO... if Ladd catches one or both, I agree with announcers that SBIV looks "eye poppingly great" today), it's not horrible, though still way below Natty winner standards. You're gonna get some "playing down" every once in a while from a group of young guys, and a QB is going to have an INT sometimes. Thank goodness for Brock!
The defense? Different story altogether... there is zero excuse for the 2Q missed tackles, esp for the TD run after catch up the left sideline. In another case, Brinson actually stopped right in the middle of a tackle that would have been a TFL! Unfortunately, can't rewind the streaming I'm watching to confirm all the various play-by-play suspicions.
That leads to the worst thing of the day (so far) for me: absolutely HORRIFIC coverage by ESPN. Bad announcing, poor camera angles, commercials out the **** at inopportune times, bad lighting of the announcers, no ability to rewind (at least my ESPN app via Comcast), glitchy streaming between commercials and the game itself, huge difference in volume between game coverage and ads... there's lots more, but it's made for an unpleasant viewing experience (above and beyond the game itself 😁). I know ESPN/SECN is always poorer than CBS, Fox, etc., but come on 😳
Sorry for the long post, but I hope the silver lining is that the first half happened outside SEC competition and has provided film for CKS to use for "teachable moments" not just this year, but years to come 😃
Go Dawgs!!!
Added comments in 2H: Ladd came back, so good. But it was a FG fest for much of game, not good. Also was hoping O line would improve, but it actually got worse ☹️ D just surprisingly lackluster. Haven't seen final yards allowed total, but can't be great. Plus falling for a fake punt... again. Add to bad ESPN coverage some real questionable officiating... what a great day for fans to forget, and Dawgs players to remember! 🤣
Hope everyone's weekend goes better than the last three or so hours!!! 😁👍
I'm glad this isn't on regular TV the dawgs are stinking it up against inferior opposition - should never happen.
So far,2nd half same as first...cannot score a TD. Reminds me of all those games of field goal wins years back. No offense generation. UGA is having a relatively bad day....forget #1.....must concentrate on catching the ball.....WRs. And turnovers. From none to many. Teams will have more confidence against UGA now...yes, they are mortal.
It looks like the student section at the goal post area already has been cleared out mostly.
Georgia is winning, but this is a sad and depressing game.
Kent State run game looks better than Georgia. Since Coach Pittman left, the offensive line looks average and the run game can't be found.
Everyone getting ready for Kirby press conference where he says Kent State is a good team. Instead of saying the team looked like crap and we didn't prepare them well during the week. It's more about coaching this week than Kent State being a good team.
Don't see the team leadership on the field.
This is utterly pathetic.
Penalties.....looks like many Jake Fromm games...FGs. UGA is not playing well at all...IMO. Will plummet in polls because of lack of TDs against a very inferior team. #4 Michigan not looking good against MD either.
Dawgs looking completely lost. Defense has holes everywhere.
Gonna be the toughest week of practice coming up...
Now with another fake punt, make that all 3 phases of the game.
UT will score all over this defense. They are actually just getting pushed around and missing tackles. This game may go over, because UGA can't stop them from scoring, and UGA just kicks fg's. SMH
UGA IS ABSOLUTELY IS BEING EMBARRASSED. THIS IS A TOTAL EMBARRASSMENT. What is bad is that the KS coach refused a 10 minute 4th qtr. UGA will not be No. 1 on Sunday. And rightfully so. AND someone said before. NOBODY is going to fear UGA now. UT beats these same type of teams by 50 plus points.
I was right, Bennett has to play in the 4th qtr. That does not help to keep backups, when they can't even play in a game they should dominant. 25 plays in the last 2 drives for KS.
One of the only positive things, is that Edwards looks a lot better then Milton. 1st and goal, and Milton gets smoked again. I honestly don't think he could break a tackle from me. LOL
Fake punt fools UGA again. Kent State could pull this one out yet. I know, sounds crazy, but UGA is just not that good. KS is scoring TDS while UGA feeds to the kicker Jake P. I am sweating the outcome of this game..and Kirby Smart better do something drastic after this fiasco. UGA big dogs won't like this lack of performance by Kirby. UGA defense not nearly as good as last season. KS having its way. Good QB.
I see Georgia have some starters limping. Playing a team like this, they shouldn't be in the game right now. However, they are because Kent State is putting a 5.2 millions dollar butt whooping on Georgia.
