We really should be looking for improvement Defensively more than offensively.
We likely will be improved on Offense based on QB and OL. The OC certainly needs to improve vs elite defenses but has scored more points versus Alabama than just about anybody else. But for turnovers - we likely would have won LSU and Texas.
I just do not get the whining and gnashing of Teeth about our Offense.
Statistically we are better on Offense in the SEC than anybody but Bama.

Conclusion:
UGA Defense is more of a problem than Offense based on the (lying, grin) statistics.
Hells Bells, Chaney’s Offense is scoring more points than The Dread Pirate Mike Leach’s Washington State PAC 12 team. Let that sink in before hollerin’ about making a change.
Am all for Offensive improvement, especially vs elite defenses - but based on hard cold statistical facts - am not in favor of changing OCs.
