    So I guess Gunner Stockton didn't get rid of the ball fast enough either, eh Coach Kirby Smart? Amazing.

    Good job. Way to pad some stats before half, with no chance to score.

    FIRE MIKE BOBO. That’s a pathetic play call after they had sacked Stockton on the previous series or so. Throw a short pass or run it first. SMH. About to be down by 17 after the kickoff.

    That was on the O line failing to block Not Gunner

    Somebody is not blocking (getting beat) on Gunner’s blind side.

    You know their QB is going to run. Keep someone in the middle with the sole responsibility being to stop him.

    Play better. Coach better.

    If you have a set eyes and have Ever watched football that was Not on Gunner. You Know this and your bashing the kid for No reason. Please stop !!

    The O-line blocking has been a problem all season long.

  • navydawgnavydawg ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    LISTEN to the announcers speaking right now. THEY SEE that our O Line Especially Freeling is not blocking for Gunner

  • navydawgnavydawg ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    I mean if we’re gonna blame put it in the right place ! And someone please slap the Idiot that blocked the Referee earlier. That probably cost us a TD

    @budknox310 With the singular exception of the misfired pass on third down, Stockton has played well. There have been 3 problems.

    1. UGA's skill players, including Arian Smith, can't break away from the defense. They always slip up, get tripped up, get forced out of bounds or get caught from behind. Amazing. Even when the QB and OL make great plays to get them the ball and create space for them, it doesn't do much good because they somehow manage to turn 25 yard plays into 7 yard plays like no group I have ever seen.
    2. Trevor Etienne chooses the red zone for his first fumble of the season. That play changed the complexion of the game.
    3. The offensive line just isn't getting it done, whether it is failing to open up running lanes and having breakdowns in pass protection at critical times.

    Keep in mind: Carson Beck dealt with this for 27 games (minus the ones where he actually had a healthy Bowers and McConkey, or at least one or the other). Everyone said "we need a dual threat QB! That will solve all of the problems with the supporting cast!" Yeah, no. Even though these guys are suddenly deciding to catch all of the balls that they dropped for Beck, the OL, the above is still happening.

    I wasn't meaning to bash him. But his 2 biggest jobs are ball security and not getting sacked. He failed on both of those. I know freeling is getting beat like a drum, but even with Greene in there, it's not going to get easier for him. He has to feel it or make the throw quicker. ND is going to make him throw it to win. They are loading the box.

    On pass plays Dawgs need to put an extra guy on the Samoan Dude or he’s gonna kill Gunner. And Gunner HAS to let his receivers get open or All he can do is throw it away Or throw an INT. I don’t think that’s a very good plan for Winning
