It’s Nick vs. Kirby when Alabama and Georgia meet, a head coaching storyline for the ages
ATHENS — The Nick Saban-Kirby Smart dynamic presents a compelling — and unique — teacher-student story line at the highest level.

The Dawgs need to go into this game looking to do a few things. Give the University of Georgia it's first victory in a SEC championship game against a Nick Saban Alabama team. Beat Alabama by 3 or more touchdowns so there will be no excuses for the loss. Prove to the world that UGA is the new dynasty. Leave no Doubt. But one out of the three is just fine with me. Go Dawgs!!!
Liked the statement "Most dominant dynasty against the longest winning streak" or something to that effect. Probably in your other article. They all are merging together for me.
If we both play our A game we win. We are the better team hands down. Dawg practice was very energetic and they are motivated. Hopefully Bobo has a couple tricks up his sleeve and we can lay 50 on these jokers. I'm expecting a win but think a blowout is possible if our defense steps up. Obviously, last game has me a bit anxious but hopefully that was an outlier.
Expect Mykel and Jalon Walker to have big games on defenses and Bell and Bowers to dominate on offense. Did I forget Milton? He will run for 80+ and Edwards will get 50+. Beck for 300+ and 4 tds.
Minnesota did not win 3 national titles; a media outlet awarded them a national title several years later. If UGA was to make the CFP and win the National Champion for three years in a row it will be the first time in the history of the sport a team has ever done so.
I can't see us putting up 50 against the Tide, but I do hope we can win by more than one score so it doesn't come down to Milroe driving Bama for the lead at the end. But I'll take a victory any way we can get it. Go Dawgs!
I hate Alabama. I’m so sick of hearing “Roll Tide” I could slap the next person I hear say it.
Let’s go Dawgs beat Bama! I don’t care how we do it just do it!
Go Dawgs!!
Win, or lose.....I happen to know The Dawgs will win, when the final second ticks, Nick and Kirby will meet on the field, shake hands and compliment each other.....both men are pinnacles of sportsmanship, legends in their own right, irreplaceable assets to their universities and to the young men they coach and the very best college football offers! GOOO DAWGS, SICEM!
It's going to kill a lot of sportswriters around Atlanta and the country (especially in Ohio, and Pennsylvania, Michigan and Texas) to have to write how the Georgia Bulldogs are the greatest college football team of all time.
Time and Circumstance Meet to Create Greatness.
The right timing with the right coach met and greatness was realized. This has happened before in all of sports. Just in college football you had Don Heinrich, Buddy Bierman, Bud Wilkinson, Bear Bryant, Barry Switzer, Tom Osborne, and Nick Saban. I might of missed one of the greats but those 7 span over 150 years. A great one every 20 years or so.
Kirby Smart is the next great one.
Dawgs should win. But if the refs get involved (for all you conspiracy folks) Bama(Saban) will win the Natty and retire on top.
so if you start seeing calls reversing TD’s or critical 1st downs. Put on your tin foil hat and just see if the Dawgs can out-play the “BIG MONEY” And walk into the CFP as SEC Champs!!
Georgia 34 - Bama 27.
A win is a win in this contest. Kirby and Nick may be buddies in casual conversation but not on the field of play...no way. Nick is saying his best RB may not play and Kirby gives little indication whether Bowers, and/or McConkey... will play...though Bowers did play11 on 11 this week. Looks promising. Ladd...no idea. RaRa ...no idea. Others as well. Ever play a card game with less than a full deck? Tough. I am counting on Georgia's depth. I am still predicting a solid UGA victory.
Go Dawgs!!!
Nick Saban has won 16 straight games in Atlanta and never lost in Mercedes-Benz Stadium...Kirby is 0-3 against Saban in Mercedes-Benz.
Make no mistake, Saban wants this one BADLY. He is lobbying for a spot this year in the CFP if he beats the DAWGS. He is expecting to win. He lobbied last season for the final spot in the playoffs, and honestly, I think Bama deserved it the way they played in the final stretch. TCU Frogs turned into a real dud & disappointment, and you know there is no such thing as a dud-coached Saban team. He will have the Tide ready.
This will be Kirby's BIGGEST challenge game to date.
Something to keep in mind: Don't tell who is Alabama's QB, tell me who is their back-up QB. UGA's had to face the Bama back-up more than once recently. Of course, Milroe likes to take off, and UGA's going to be focused on getting him on the ground. I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see Milroe get dinged to the point he has to leave the game. I think Bama's in trouble anyway, but if Milroe's not in the game, they're in REAL trouble. Bama doesn't have a Heisman-candidate-in-waiting behind Milroe, and having one of their back-up QBs in the game would be a disaster for Bama. And they don't have the receivers to bail out a second-tier QB. Whatever the case, GO DAWGS!!!
This Alabama team is overhyped. We should win easily. They should of lost 2 other games. They are overrated and we are going to expose them today. It is going to be a beatdown. Dawgs 51-27.
