with our erratic play I don't see much hope for a UT win. Ga always plays like they are on a mission

I agree. They've had our number in the past. I think if we can get out to a fast start, we have a shot. Just got to go punch them in the mouth.

This is not the Georgia teams of the past. This team has played some close games to teams they shouldn't have played close to. I think they're beatable. But we'll have to play our best game of the year.

Mostly true, although last

I'm hoping it's like last years.game, where the visiting underdog team comes in with lots of extra motivation and gets the dub.

Last year we hosted my wife's two cousins who are big Georgia fans for the Texas game. This spring one of those cousins unexpectedly passed away. He was really looking forward to hosting us. The surviving cousin isn't an UGA graduate, so one of his nephews that is an UGA graduate will be standing in for him, and show us around Athens.

Weather predictions look great, hopefully Texas wins, but either way it should be a great weekend.

Have a fun weekend. Hopefully it will be better than last year. 🤘🏼
 
Texas has to bring their A++ game in this one. Texas has not looked great on the road this year. Not surprising because this is a young team. Offense, Defense and ST need to all be on point. Having McDonald (hopefully) and Taaffe in the backend should solidify it and help them become aggressive and not play soft.

On offense, hopefully the OL is now solidified and can give Arch time and open holes for Wisner and Baxter. Wingo needs to be back and the WRs need to block better this game.

Has to be the best game of the year.

I don't think they're quite the Georgia they were a few years ago. And I think we're playing better.... still erratic, but better..... there's hope. I give us better odds than Samford against aggy.

Everybody is expecting us to get bum rushed between the hedges, especially aggy. The boys need to shut them up. I for one am tired of aggys strutting around and then pissing and moaning because they're not ranked #1. I hope the boys show them something to worry about come Nov. 28th.
 
The short pass quick hitting offense we’ve been more successful with of late is the one that Georgia easily shuts down due to their skill and discipline on defense. They’ve largely shut it down against us the last two games. Sark and the team need to figure out how to get more vertical but is that something our team can pull off? Arch will need to use his legs again. We will have to in order to win.

Defense needs to hold up and I believe they will.

ST - make the damn kicks!

I agree that Georgia will be ready for Ryan Wingo screen on the first play…or any play. Sark Needs to come up with some form of trickeration out of that set.

1. Run the same formation and motion and fake block by the two WR's. Then send them deep. Have Wingo go upfield 8-10 yards and sit while Endries comes across the field on a drag route. Endries is the main target.

2. After the Bert Auburn debacle, I really don't have anything bad to say about Shipley.

You should run our O. That would be a nice tweak to see...

I think we have a real good shot at beating aggy in Austin. I give us better odds there than this one.

I do think we have a shot in Gawgia.... but I'm not betting the house on it.
 
Sark pointed out several times Georgia is 51–2 in their last 53 games at home.
