    The only game we need to focus on is Vandy.....Sunday we can see how The Gators came out against The Game **** in Columbia and then plan accordingly......predictions at this stage of the season are pie in the sky speculation and are worth nothing.

    asserted their dominance against a No. 24-ranked Kentucky team with a 51-13 victory.______@MikeGriffith

    Mike...Kentucky was ranked #20 at the time of the beat down. To maintain "consistency in reporting"....that's how it should be referenced.....as it is with every other team in the FBS.

    just sayin'..

    BTW....What did I tell you, regarding Rosemy-Jacksaint?. He will be UGA's Williams, Waddle or Smith...by the time they get to the Florida game. The connection between, Rosemy, Bowers, Beck and Thomas will be a must-see show, every Saturday....going forward.

    And, Edwards, Milton and Bell will be putting on a show of their own, behind one of the best offensive lines I've ever seen, in Athens.

    Mews is gonna break a few returns, before the end of the year...and the Defense is gonna be responsible for a hundred points on the board.

    Who do think the Dawgs "can't stop", and must outscore in a "track meet"? They aren't playing LSU, which I think would be the most dangerous team for the Dawgs.

    IMO....Tennessee, Ole Miss and Mizzou, don't have the defensive hosses to stop em. The Dawgs don't "depend" on a ground game or air-show....though, they can play either style at an "elite level".

    The only question is....which of the 3, can keep the game close into the 4th qtr.?

    I think Mizzou is "that team"....if UGA has 4 or 5 turnovers and a discipline melt-down. Lol....I don't see that happening, any more than I saw the GT win over Miami...[coming with less than a minute remaining, last Saturday].

    Soooo....you're sayin' there's a chance. Lol....covering the UGA Bulldogs has GOT to be the easiest gig in Journalism, these days. And, the best. I like the way you guys have handled the last few years, withe few exceptions. Keep up the great work.

    Now that is funny no matter what.

    What it would take: UGA team-wide availability issue

    Great line @MikeGriffith and good analysis. That made my day

    Bottom line....

    If you can't stop UGA's Offense...run the football...win the Turnover/Penalty/Special Teams battle [discipline]....and....you are forced to "pass the ball for over "400 yds".......fuggidabout'it!

    Tennessee's ONLY hope...is that, the game will be played a couple of hours up the road, in Knoxville. But....Dawg Fans travel...and, will turn that into a "Home Game". IMO.

    "No Hope"...or "Low Hope"...that's the only two options, for UGA's Competition. Lol...if the game's in Athens....it's "No Hope". If the game is "Away"....it's "Low Hope".

    Mistakes (ie too many costly penalties and/or turnovers) are about the only thing that could derail our season with a loss...so basically, us beating ourselves is the only way I see the Dawgs laying an egg against any of these teams.

    Exactly...and, that's NOT gonna happen. The Dawgs are tied for #1 in the FBS...[The Least Penalized Team]. Now....THAT is "elite" and speaks loudly as to the discipline and mindset of this Bulldog "team".

    Talent, schematics and everything else aside...if you are capable of playing "mistake-free football", you give yourself "a chance". Nobody can match UGA, in that aspect, either. That's why I characterize the Dawgs competition with...."Low Hope" if you get em at home...and...."No Hope" in Athens. At least, that's the way I see it, in 2023.

    I love this year's soon-to-be....record-breaking "Team".

    OK I know people have to be very careful when talking about how teams played each other. A shining example is KY decimating UF, then only the next week our Dawgs Destroy KY. So I understand and appreciate that factor.

    I don’t have my SEC schedule in front of me as I’m posting this but I think KY plays TN before our Dawgs play TN. Again I’m not so naive not to realize comparing how opponents played each other can be, IS risky business. But I’m gonna be interested to see how KY fares vs TN.

    Regardless I believe ( with one proviso) that our Dawgs Can and Will run the table including beating TN. The one proviso is if ( Please No !!!) we have Another terrible rash of injuries.

    Dawgs are getting Healthier and Better at a BAD time for our rivals !!!! They would never Say it but I bet their Thinking it, rival fans are thinking Oh No here we go again !!! Go Dawgs !!! 3Peat !! 3Peat !! 3Peat !!

    The crowd noise at Neyland worries me, not the Vols themselves. But the Ole Miss Offense is my biggest concern.

    The game you have to play next should always be the focus. A whole season can be derailed by looking ahead and not paying proper attention to your next opposition.

    Very true. No matter how good you are.

    Just look at Miami....Tortoise & the Hare, my friend.
