So glad we left Kentucky in relatively good, physical shape...games like that can be hard on a team. I'll gratefully take the win and **** as it was and be happy with it! Now, it's time to WRECK TECH! GO DAWGS!
@robinsdawg
Milton isn't the guy you want in there on the goal line. You would think he would be with his size but IMHO he lacks the vision to be able to adjust in the moment. He just ran straight into the pile, then kept kicking his legs while lying on the ground. Sort of sad. Like a fish flapping on dry ground. We just don't have that big bowling ball back with a little bit of vision. Maybe more importantly we don't have an O-line that can blow their individual matchups up! No cracks or creases to be found anywhere on short yardage. Hope Kirby doesn't try that when it matters most.
A great coach knows his team's strenths and weaknesses and utilizes them to his advantage. How many times do you have to get stuffed at the line by different teams to understand that's not your teams strength, running straight up the gut on 3rd and 1 or 4th and 1? Forget all the macho stuff. It's no shame to score by a different play.
Two questions here for my fellow Dawgs fans and Mike. 1) Is Branson Robinson injured or some what dinged up ?? Might just be Me ( my old eyes Lol) but I haven’t seen him in a while. 2) I fully realize he’s a true freshman and perhaps Kirby & Coach Monken might fear he’d fumble the ball in a Big situation like a goal line run. But any speculation Why they haven’t given him a shot on these OR when KS has decided to run on 4th down to pickup a first down ?? It’s probably Just Me again, I’m probably To Excited about the potential, but To Me and what I see Branson runs with Power, Authority, and Explosive !! Yes he’s been stopped and Yes a couple of times stopped short, But from what I’ve seen or at least Think I’ve seen if the O Line gives him just a smidgen of breathing room this kid Blows through rival Ds like a wrecking ball !! I’m probably just to excited on his potential Lol !! Thoughts ??
Wait a minute. Aren't you the guy that says CKS knows more than all of his questioners combined and he should never be questioned? Yet here you are questioning his choice on short yardage carries.
Did you forget that Milton, now healthy, is UGA's biggest, most powerful RB and highest ranked RB recruit on the team? Or that BRob is an unproven, inexperienced freshman with no track record for producing during crunch time?? Or is it just okay for you to question CKS but nobody else?
I just asked a couple of generic “what if” type questions. If you want to make a big stew out of it that’s all on You. And I stand by my comments of the past that Kirby Smart knows FAR more than Me, YOU, or any other typical fan. There Are some out there that might be Dawgs fans and Might have a high level of experience, knowledge, and expertise on the subject, but I doubt many of them comment on these posts if ever. Sounds like your just desiring starting a feud, but Sorry I’m not playing. Hope you and family have a Great Thanksgiving !! Go Dawgs !!
Dude...come on. Lol...it's 1 word. And, "autocorrect" has screwed me up far more than it's helped me. I turned mine OFF.
I disagree with the term "beatable" as it applies to UGA, this year.
I don't believe for a second that UGA is beatable by ANY of the teams I've seen, so far. That includes, BAMA, TENN, LSU, OSU, MICH, TCU, USC UCLA, OREGON...etc..
However, I have said, that they are capable of losing...if they beat themselves, with turnovers, penalties, play-calling, etc.. Mistakes, in other words.
I don't know what the rest of you think. I haven't read everybody's take...yet. But, I haven't, once this season, thought that the Dawgs were in danger of losing. Not even when they were down to Mizzou in the 4th qtr..
Not because I'm some "brainless homer", but, because I know the weapons that weren't being used against em,..... yet. If Kirby needed a TD or FG to win...with less than a minute to play...I know they've got the players and the plays (which they weren't using) to get it.
Let's all wratchet the anti-hype down, just a little bit. Even though, that's exactly what Kirby's trying to generate.
I think Kirby likes screwing with the media. Lol...When they say, "The Dawgs are the greatest.", he plays conservative. When they say, "The Dawgs are fallible and may lose to...", he blows the other team out and the defense goes on lock-down.
Kirby knows he can do any darn thing he wants to, and there's not a dadgum thing anybody can do to stop him. Great position to be in, as a Coach. Lol
No interest in any feuding. I just thought the irony was worth mentioning after some of the meltdown posts you made this week.
Absolutely, Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours and all Dawg fans. There is a lot to be thankful for.
"Did you forget that Milton, now healthy, is UGA's biggest, most powerful RB and highest ranked RB recruit"
Stop pickin' on @navydawg. I think he had a valid question. Why don't you try answering it, without be condescending and throwing out some irrelevant recruiting rankings? Lol
You throw around phrases like, "most powerful running back" (which I haven't seen, yet), without qualifying them.
How is Milton the "most Powerful", pray, tell? What qualifies him as "the most powerful running back"? In my opinion, there isn't a more powerful or talented RB on the team, than Kenny Mac.
Now, in time, Robinson may replace him...or it may be somebody not even on the team, yet. But, pound for pound and to the eye, Kenny Mac has been the most powerful back on the team over the last 2-3 games.
I'm wondering if K-Mac was hurt (not injured) during the first half of the year. He's not the same guy that started the year out. He's running with authority, breaking tackles, finding lanes. His vision, speed and power have improved dramatically from the first game of the year.
I'll wait, while you do your internet search. Lmao
@navydawg ....You have a good Thanksgiving too, Brother.
@UGADad20...you too, UGAdad.
@MikeGriffith ...lol...you too, Mike
See yall in the ATL on the 3rd!!!
Go git em Big Red Machine!
Well I appreciate it. But in fairness I don’t think I was alone in the melt down department Lol. Different type of metal melting down maybe, but certainly not alone. I saw Plenty of other melt down posts of a different type than mine, including from you. But that’s OK. The thing is we’re Both Dawgs fans and along with our fellow Dawgs fans we All want to see our beloved Dawgs achieve at the highest levels possible, and in the end That should be what matters most. We might have different ideas of How our Dawgs get there and have much discussion even some disagreement but as Dawgs fans we All want and hope to see Kirby hold that shiny trophy up again. I have and hold Nothing against you or anyone else here, and sure hope you and them feel the same. Yes I am very passionate and very vocal about the things I believe, but I don’t think I’m anymore such as allot of people here are about their beliefs. So that’s all I can say on that. If I’m being offensive that’s Not my intent, Defensive of Kirby and our program maybe, and maybe a little over zealous in that regard. I’ll try to tone that down some. Take care and I sure Hope we’ll Both along with our fellow Dawgs fans have Allot left to enjoy !! Go Dawgs !!
Don't tone anything down, Navy. You be you. You aren't offensive in the least, IMO. Your opinion, is your opinion. And, as with most of us, your opinion can change, with the introduction of new factual data.
I don’t know for how long or how bad it was or how much it might have slowed him down, but earlier KMac had a thigh contusion and ( once again my memory fails me Lol) but seems I remember he had some other type injury earlier this season. But your right as rain !! Man Oh Man KMac Has Indeed been running with Power, Authority, and Explosiveness !!! I guess I’m seeing flickers of those same traits in B.Robinson which was cause for my question. Course I Do fully understand and appreciate that he is after all a True Freshmen. If all goes well and he has no significant injuries and puts forth his best effort in S&C training he Could end up being a BEAST !! None of our RBs are slouches !! Edwards is a great RB to !! As well as Milton. But at This Point in time Id totally agree with you KMac is the total package !! He looks ready for the NFL today !!! Let’s All hope we see Kirby holding Another Ntl. Title Trophy and I honestly Believe that’s Very Possible !!
I'Ve seen the same flash out of Robinson. I'm looking forward to his development, as well. I don't see how UGA's strength and conditioning is going to help this kid. He's already a monster in the weight room. His development is going to be mostly mental. Learning the system and working on blocking and ball control. The basics.
Thx Bro. !! But I guess I do come on a little to over zealous some times. I’m pretty BULLDawg headed Lol !! Best Thanksgiving Wishes to You & Family !!
