    Agree. Would never have happened last year. We're not missing talent, we're missing leadership on the field beyond SBIV (and no QB can do it alone). I'm hopeful this game will cause leaders to step up, as I think I saw with JDJ, Darnell, etc.... but will our current group of coaches under CKS drive and/or capitalize on it? TBD...

    Well, if there was one thing positive to say about Richt is that he NEVER would've allowed/put up with a Georgia player taunting an opposing player on their bench. He would've benched him and rightfully so.

    Football is a mental and emotional sport as much as it's physical. That's why there are so many upsets - weaker teams can often prevail when they are "fired up" and have a reason to hate the opponent. It'd be interesting to see a stat of how teams responded when the other coach/team was saying **** and arrogant stuff about the other team. I'd bet the odds change quite dramatically when that happens.

    Georgia doesn't do that. Smart never says **** stuff that often other coaches do and he should not allow that type of behavior. If it were me, I would've publicly apologized for the player and stated that it will not happen again.

    The "bad word filter" is really quite amusing as ironically, it makes you look like you are cussing when you are not.

    S T U P I D and U G L Y are not bad words. No broadcast is going to bleep it if you say, well that was an ug*y performance.

    I think the biggest problem is that our NFL defense last year made up for the often lack of offense. People have forgotten how many points our defense scored and I think it's underestimated how much momentum they took away from the other team and gave to Georgia.

    The offense needs to step up. We need aggressive play calling and put in Beck when it's not working out.

    Oh, you mean like the time Bama came to Athens and several of Richt’s Dawgs acted like absolute fools going over and barking at the Tide players as they came onto the field. Then, those same Dawgs proceeded to have their but*s handed to them on a platter by those same Tide players. That Richt?

    Last year’s team was loaded with upperclassmen, especially the defense. There’s a reason that same defense wasn’t “generational” in 2020; the bulk of of that defense, though talented, were young underclassmen just like this year’s Dawgs

    Checkout the Dawg roster. We are young and anywhere else in college football this would be considered a rebuilding year. Yes, even Tuscaloosa!

    Saban said last year’s Bama team was in a rebuilding year. Well, that team didn’t lose 15 players to the draft.

    Winner’s: This entire young Dawg team for finding a way to get an SEC road win while overcoming turnovers, blown assignments, very mediocre QB play, and the worst game Monken has had as a play caller since he came to Georgia
