Our bulldogs and the 4th was wavering at the end
I think all of them picked Bulldogs. :)
We are a trendy pick. If they had beaten ND last week vs two weeks ago it would go the other way. Either way, I think it's a war Saturday night.
We're more physical than them and hit way harder. Only question is, can they do it on the road without the energy from the crowd?
Our DL vs their OL is the biggest mis-match for either team in the game.Quote:

Herby just said that auburn "& maybe Mississippi State" may be the only challenge to Bama this year.
Agree. If we can run it Saturday night, we are going places.Quote:

To add: I think we may be able to run it but we'll have to run it differently than we did vs LSU. As Matt Wyatt's video showed, LSU really struggled to set the edge which allowed us to violate the outside.
My guess is that UGA will specifically prepare for that and we'll have to scheme them in a different way.
Nothing gets by Jack!Quote:

TE may be wide open.
If our D-line plays like they did against LSU, we should dominate their OL and possibly shut their offense down. Their OL is not very good.Quote:

On that play specifically, if the corner had kept better contain on the outside, Aeris had a clear hole with a lead blocker inside the RT. Which is exactly why the corner dove inside - he saw the same hole. Just a good play call, good blocking, and good vision from Aeris. Not much you can do about it.Quote:

If Fitz keeps developing his touch on passes then he could be the most dangerous man in college football. He already runs like Cam Newton with more top end speed. It takes 2 guys to bring him down and then he can also run by them.Quote:

It doesn't matter how good a RB is if the Oline can't block.Quote:

In fact the only ones you can rank and have as sure fires are players that already weigh the 300+ like Tunsil, Little, and Robinson. Even then it’s guess work.Quote:

Did no one see AUB vs Mercer last wknd? They were awful! I was most worried about them among these 3 games. Now I'm leaning towards Georgia being hardest of the 3. But I still see us winning.Quote:

They left early too and I know it was a blowout but with all the students streaming out at half, I thought I was in OxfordQuote:

Downvote.
I don't think these Georgia fans posting smack realize that was not their fathers ND that they beat.
