Carson is who we thought he was, a “good” QB who can…..

pile up statistics against moderate and inferior opponents, but who cannot defeat the Alabamas that we play. The main difference in the game was Jalen Milroe. A dual threat quarterback is the most dangerous weapon in college football and even in professional football. Why can we not recruit a quarterback who is equally a threat running and throwing the ball. A dual threat quarterback makes life much easier on the offensive coordinator calling the plays; he can cause people to miss and create plays with his legs that cannot be drawn up on the chalkboard, and the D has no answer for him.

Just a word about our overall recruiting…. just because rivals or some other organization says we finished with the best recruiting class in the nation doesn’t mean that it’s a fact. Too many of our highly ranked players failed to live up to their billing for whatever reason. Alabama had a much better team size wise and speed wise last night.

And I will broach a subject which I have been hesitant to do these last three years….. We have had so many players charged with driving infractions, so many more than other teams have had; I’m afraid this might be due to KS’s letting up and not being as tough and hard nosed on discipline as he once was. That’s the only explanation that makes sense to me, and if that’s the case, Kirby might be letting up somewhat on his offensive and defensive coordinators also. And a lack of D certainly carries over to the players on the field.

So many mistakes and bad plays last night; too many poor throws and poor decisions from Carson. Things better improve and quick..

We are not the Standard. Bama is.

It’s unfortunate as I believe we crowned ourselves that after Saban retired last year. But Kirby simply is owned by them. It’s a huge problem for him and last nights loss is a huge setback for him at this point in his tenure as UGA’s coach. I do think the missing piece continues to be our lack of rollling in year over year explosive talent on the offensive side of the ball. We just don’t measure up consistently enough on that side of the ball to beat Bama more.
I am concerned we have lost the fear of other teams when they play us now. Not good situation right now.

Got a question for the positive thinkers

This board was total chaos last night. As to be expected. I’m sick of losing to this same team over and over and over! I know everyone feels the same way. But I want to know from the positive thinkers out there did we show enough in your opinion last night that makes you feel encouraged about us going forward? This is a long season. We still have to play Texas, Ole Miss, Tennessee. The road is gonna be tough. But does this team have the goods or not? The start last night was inexcusable. You simply cannot spot that team 28 points. Can Kirby learn from this? Would it be any different if we played them again? Can this team improve and still make a run? I don’t want smart a** answers. I genuinely want to know if there are positives to take from that last night. Go dawgs.

Sunday Thoughts

With all the criticism going to Bob and Beck (all valid by the way) we have to remember that we came back from 28-0 and took the lead with a little over 2 minutes left to go in the game. That in and of itself showed heart and moxie however what you CANNOT do is rush 3 and let them connect on a 75 yard hail mary to their #1 receiver. Humphrey has got to turn around and find that ball and the safety coming over to help has got to make the tackle.

We had the game there for the taking and Carson took it. Then we gave it right back. Carson almost tied it up again but underthrew a back shoulder pass inside. I didn't love that play call at all in that spot.

What is actually the most annoying…

thing about the doomsday dawgs is their insistence that their take is reality. It is not reality it is in fact them being able to say “look at me look at me I told you we would lose and that we suck.” An obvious example is pointing to the only reason we came back as Bama “sitting on the ball”. Well I know for a fact if the roles were reversed you guys would cry about how we let go of the lead and are soft and don’t have the right mentality and Bama owns us and wanted more while you gargle sabans nutsack. Also Bama continued to run trick plays, run outside zones and throw the ball up 28 so that take is completely false anyway. The actual reality is yes there was a lot of ugly things that happened last night, and I agree on most criticism of the game. In the First half we were undisciplined, caught off guard defensively, couldn’t tackle and Beck clearly needs to see an exorcist.

But to dismiss coming back from 28 down in Tuscaloosa on a night we looked like we had zero juice is also not reality, it’s picking and choosing what you want to believe so you can feel like a big dick swinger on a message board. Both halves happened and like always the “reality” is much closer to the middle of the constant glass full or glass empty takes that have piled up since last night.

Stop being so dramatic and Go Dawgs
