2-14 on 3rd down! What can we do to correct this?

How to improve ? Stop running into the guy who just called fair catch on a punt. Stop moving before the ball is snapped. Catch the punted ball if its not in the end zone. Don't run a pass play when you are 5 yrds deep in the end zone. Practice plays that counter the blitz. Incorporate the use of tight ends.

And stop holding the ball for 5 seconds. Throw it away or run

I think if you rewatch it, you'll see the UGA player had to step forward several feet to catch it after signalling a fair catch. He stepped straight into a UT ST player.... This the penalty.

The measuring stick was laid out yesterday and we fell short. We need bigger OLine guys and better players . That’s the answer. I love this team but it showed yesterday where we are. We are making 24k gold up cakes right now compared to what I thought this season would be. So I’ve been impressed but the gap is closing!

We weren't as effective on first and second down. Our usual seven yards (or more) first down completions were only getting 4. Second down runs we're going nowhere. (Missed Small after he went down.)

And add in at least one false start on nearly every series, and we were behind the chains a lot. Those false starts were a big story IMO.

UGA played a great game and we played our worst. Yesterday was similar to the Pitt game. Difference is that UGA offense made us pay for our screw ups.

That’s a very good analogy. Let’s just hope we don’t see anything similar over the last three weeks.

Again all offensive woes started with the Oline getting their asses whipped.

What he said! Not just Oline either, I saw fant whiff on a few blocks on Hookers blind side as well. Pass protection was pitiful. Our guys seemed uncomfortable the whole game. I am not worried, it won’t happen again

Play them in a neutral site where their crowd noise doesn't have us in lots of 3rd and longs from false starts, for one.

More rollouts and designed QB runs for another.

Wish he was just a bit more durable. Not being able to rotate him and Wright did not make things easier

They have out recruited TN. Didn’t lose 17 to transfer portal not long ago. They schemed for weeks with film as we prepared for the next top 25. They was very loud cause Kirby ask them to be. Last but not least Kentucky didn’t paint our rock blue and Stetson Bennett got his number giving by a Ga fan to fire them up. (Opinion). It’s hard to be up every week. We was not up and they was. Could we beat them yes but they have more talent right now.
They have scored higher in almost every game. Game was a few passes away from being close.

Specifically speaking about the line getting whipped. Last year, they threw Coooer Mays into #75. This year, they just threw Cooper Mays....😂
