GMac: I think Bama's gonna beat Georgia. Georgia is excellent. Carson Beck is right up there with Caleb Williams and Drake May in my book. But their defense is not what it was. They've been gashed for 200 multiple times on the ground this year.*
Georgia is 112th in the country on yards given up on zone reads.** Which is nuts to me. A Georgia defense giving up 6 yards per carry on zone read. I think Bama matches up really well and Georgia is riding a 29 game win streak and it might come to an end on Saturday afternoon.




*Bama's D has given up 200 yards twice in November. 177 to South Florida and 154 to Miss. State. One of those two teams that gashed us got 244 yards vs. Bama.

** As Brent discussed, Bama doesn't run zone reads much because Milroe can't read it properly. When they run it, he knows pre snap whether he's keeping it or not and has nothing to do with the defender or reading anything.
