You've got a younger UGA defense playing to its own potential and sitting exactly where its older brothers did a year ago ....that tells me a whole lot about coaching. Two perfect seasons. UGA is an elite program under Coach Kirby Smart.
YOU DNFROCKERS HAVE PLAGERIZED ONE ANOTHER AN ENTIRE SEASON. 15 Drafted, 5 first rounder, 13 to portal..... Its like a chant!
Nice article.
I still think losing Nolan Smith 3 weeks ago is going to rear its head over the next three games against elite offenses.
Not taking anything away from the Dawgs defense, I am very proud of what they did in 2022. But Nolan is and was a beast and a leader on this defense, and his replacement Chambliss is almost 2 steps down as was seen in the last 2 games at OLB and ILB. These teams the Dawgs are playing the next 3 games have seen that and will exploit that, there is ZERO doubt about that.
Gibroni88 - I agree. They better practice and learn harder than ever if they want to get through this difficult slate. They have weaknesses that they must work to fix.
