Georgia runs 12 times to score on first drive vs Kentucky... all runs, no passes. Mizzou ran all over Kentucky last week. This is a reason to really dislike our offense... we can't take advantage of a piss poor run defense, and it cost us what should've been a win.

[Irondawg]

I think KY also lost their run stuffing NT early last week and it was a pretty big loss for them on the DL

That certainly explains the gashing they've gotten lately on the ground. Thanks

Shit just happens !!!

[bluelightstar]

There?s really no excuse for Georgia?s offense to be as thoroughly mediocre as it is all the time under Kirby

[msstate7]

With the offense Kentucky runs, wonder why they didn't pursue key. Key seems like he would've been good in their offense.

[Hambone]

I know a certain qb transfer that would do well running that KY offense.....

Well Key lost the job at UVA, maybe he's just no that good and the Kentucky coaches saw that. But like then next poster says, Shrader would be great in this O. God I hope he goes out of conference, it would suck to lose to him

Agreed

It's like going to war with only one weapon

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

There?s really no excuse for Georgia?s offense to be as thoroughly mediocre as it is all the time under Kirby

5*s and 4*s at literally every position, their pick of grad transfers, plenty of time to get a system taught... yeah my guess is Kirby meddles in the O to have it be the "ball control" style to not mess with his D. Pruitt too. I don't know why defensive HC's so often insist on controlling the O, when offensive coaches love the idea of a stud DC taking it all off their hands so they don't have to think about it

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

Agreed

It's like going to war with only one weapon

As opposed to... 2 weapons? this analogy is weird since most soldiers only have 1 gun on them

[Cowbell]

Well I like grenades and tanks personally

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

Well I like grenades and tanks personally

If not being able to run = 1 weapon, then being able to run and pass = 2 weapons

[msstate7]

Well Key lost the job at UVA, maybe he's just no that good and the Kentucky coaches saw that. But like then next poster says, Shrader would be great in this O. God I hope he goes out of conference, it would suck to lose to him

I guess, but Virginia is 57/43 pass. Kentucky is 65/35 run, so I think key would be a much better fit at Kentucky. Also 35% of Kentucky's rushes were by QB entering game

[msstate7]

As opposed to... 2 weapons? this analogy is weird since most soldiers only have 1 gun on them

Then expand the analogy... like going to war with only an Air Force, no army

[Turfdawg67]

There?s really no excuse for Georgia?s offense to be as thoroughly mediocre as it is all the time under Kirby

Kirby does less with more, for sure. If Mullen is going to break the O'fer against him, this is the year to do it.

[bluelightstar]

Well Key lost the job at UVA, maybe he's just no that good and the Kentucky coaches saw that. But like then next poster says, Shrader would be great in this O. God I hope he goes out of conference, it would suck to lose to him

Or a graduate degree from UVA is better than one from UK...

[ShotgunDawg]

Clemson down 28-10 with 31 seconds left in the 1st half. I realize Lawrence is out, but Clemson's defense can't play like this and expect the playoff committee to throw this game away. Wouldn't be right

[Leeshouldveflanked]

I know a certain qb transfer that would do well running that KY offense.....

Yep... he would go 3-0 against us.

There we go that makes sense

I've got to admit that I'm just frustrated at the moment. I wasn't criticizing this offense after LSU (haha). I'm trying to be patient when I'm just not very patient.

[KOdawg1]

I like BC's coach

[Cowbell]

Seeing the same thing over and over with the same results makes me insane lol

[ShotgunDawg]

BC pens Clemson inside the 5 twice on punts but the refs call holding on BC on 3 of the last 4 plays. Seems rigged

[PGHBulldogBG]

I really wish we would?ve hired Clawson. He sure gets every ounce of effort out of the worst talent in the ACC. What he does at Wake Forest is under looked. They are on track for another winning season.

[bluelightstar]

That Kentucky loss looks worse and worse by the week

[ShotgunDawg]

He sure gets every ounce of effort out of the worst talent in the ACC.

Seems like you could say the exact same about Leach in the Big 12 and Pac 12

[PGHBulldogBG]

I was referencing when we hired Moorhead because that?s the one who is at fault for this mess along with Cohen. I don?t question Leachs coaching or discipline, but I question his system working in the SEC and his stubbornness to not adapt if it doesn?t.

[Quaoarsking]

Georgia - underrated upset opportunity for Leach? If we can figure something out on offense by then, that is.

Gotcha. Makes sense

Interesting. Obviously depends on the offense, but you'd think our defense, if healthy enough, could hold them to 28? maybe

[msstate7]

So you think we can score 28 on Georgia?

[RocketDawg]

The plexiglas shield in the CBS announcer's booth is shorter than Gary. It does no good when they're standing up, which is likely all the time.

[BrunswickDawg]

So you think we can score 28 on Georgia?

Based on today, we might need to only score 14-15 - our defense could do that. Of course it would hinge on Bennett still being QB. I'm still shocked that kid is their best option. I saw him a couple of times in HS, he really had nothing that even made you think he would be a P5 starter.

[Turfdawg67]

Announcer just said AU has four turnovers all year... hell KJ averages that per game, doesn't he?

[Quaoarsking]

So you think we can score 28 on Georgia?

Our defense is better than Kentucky's. I don't think a 21-17 win is out of the question.

[Turfdawg67]

I hope our D is still our bright spot after tonight.

[Irondawg]

Boy OM is just pouring it on Vandy

[basedog]

Vandy is everyone’s homecoming game.

They came in avg 33 ppg. Maybe using a 1 game sample is a bad idea.

I might wait on that declaration

No - only tiny sample sizes and cherry picked stats can be used on message boards - that's the rulz

[PGHBulldogBG]

When is the last time LSU has really been this bad? 1999? I?m not sure I see them winning another game this year. Crazy how the defending National champs fell this far.

[msstate7]

Lol, I'm down with that

[basedog]

LOL, you win!

[NCDawg]

When is Ealy going to sign that baseball contract like everyone on this board said he was going to do. I knew we lost the best RB in the state when he signed with Ole Miss.

[RocketDawg]

Probably when DiNardo was there, whenever that was.

Yet the original question to you was if we could score 28 pts? 28>33??

[msstate7]

It was to shotgun. He asked if we could hold Georgia to 28

[ShotgunDawg]

So you think we can score 28 on Georgia?

Maybe. Kentucky held them to 14. Why not?
?

[msstate7]

What does Kentucky holding them to 14 have to do with us scoring 28 on Georgia? We scored 2 onKentucky.

[ShotgunDawg]

My bad, I misread your post. No, today I don't think we can score 28 on Georgia.

HOWEVER, we've got a number of weeks till that game. So maybe we'll be better by then. Probably not, but you never know

Man, I really wanna believe. Let's break 20 tonight. I'll consider that progress

[ShotgunDawg]

Totally agree.

Oklahoma State getting creative. This is ridiculous

[Quaoarsking]

They came in avg 33 ppg. Maybe using a 1 game sample is a bad idea.

And a 4-game sample is a good idea? Neither are close to credible.

All I see is that we have a decently good defense, and Georgia's offense isn't very good. So maybe we will have a shot, but only if we get better on offense.

Ok, well one is 300% greater than the other. Let's call a truce, and use a 5-game sample... Georgia is avg 29.2 ppg. They've given up 16.2 ppg. Have you saw anything suggesting we can out play Georgia? I haven't.

[LC Dawg]

We beat the defending national champions.*******

Yes. I haven't seen enough to predict it, but I've seen enough to think it's possible. The transitive property does not apply to football, but qualitative comparisons make me put that game in a totally different plausibility category than our game tonight (for example).
