Almost all my friends Bleed that Red and Black - including my parents.

My confidence comes from the fact that my UGA friends that really know football are dead ass silent about this game. They know the OL is suspect. They know that Fromm is green. They are not sure if Kirby Smart is the second coming of Saban, or the second coming of Ray Goff. They know that Michel and Chubb have injury histories and a lot of miles on them. They know that the east is weak and are already wondering if Kentucky or Vandy will be the inexplicable loss of the season - or God forbid they lose both. They know we are hungry, and they are already looking for this season's disappointment. They project the confidence of Alabama coming into the game, but in their gut they know they aren't.

I think we win by 2 touchdowns, if not more.
Yep. I was never a UGA fan, but I did go there for a few years and know and work with a bunch of diehards. I've asked several if they're worried about Saturday and all they will say is, 'Yes.' They are not confident in what they have this year, especially with Eason down, and they are very concerned about us.
