First thoughts when I saw the line, "Is this a freaking joke, or the trap of the week!!!"

-SC can't tackle and are scared to lay the hit on someone. Granted, they cut the missed tackles in half last week, but they also outweighed ECU by 50+ lbs. per lineman. The SEC school comes back to town this week.

-Lammons and Harris Jr. played a lot better last week. The middle of the field was open due to poor safety play from Moody and the LBs not dropping back to take it away. Brison Williams needs to be moved back to his safety spot, then they may have a chance at a decent Defense.

-SCar HAS TO TACKLE against Georgia. If not, Gurley could go all Darren McFadden on them again. They seem scared to tackle to me, and these wimpy arm tackles aren't gonna get the job done here.

-SCar always seems to play Jawja tough, especially at home. Davis and Co. are gonna need a good game to take some pressure off of Dylan as he's gonna be scared to death again, and throwing everything high, which will result in a pick or two.

It's very hard not to pound the shit out Georgia here, but the line tells me SCar loses by 3, or somehow pulls the upset (which is almost like a miracle to me right now).


Good stuff here.

The UGA D dominated the whole second half. Especially the 4th as you said. -19 yards in the 4Q means they laid down or UGA halftime adjustments were nothing short of spectacular. We saw the same with Oregon and MSU last week.
To me it's part halftime adjustments, but I wouldn't be surprised if that sort of thing became a common theme this year for Georgia: Gurley is a class of his own in their backfield, but they have so much depth at RB and keep running the ball at you and in a very physical type of groundgame, that opposing defenses will just wear down, the longer the game goes on.
So once you get to the 4th quarter holes will open up and become bigger and bigger because RBs share the work and defenses will have been on the field too long and be tired, losing a step, etc.

That's why I disagree when people reduce the Clemson game to 1 good quarter and pointing out that the score was close after 3 quarters: Yes, that's true, but Georgia was comfortable with not taking any unnecessary risks because they trusted in their gameplan and that Clemson eventually would wear down. So the 1st three quarters although being close, were also kind of a build-up for that huge 4th.

it was one of them for sure...the whole point of the thread was to try and middle which if you did what I did and played Georgia at -5 and then play USCe at +7.5 then I had a chance to middle on 2 very key numbers in football 6 and 7 . Unfortunately it didn't middle but it was a worth a shot and I took it.

Haven't you been told numerous times about calling him big bookie and said you'd stop AGAIN this year? Your act grows super old. You're a negative for this forum. Just stop
