Vegas may be taking into account that UGA just came off a huge game with LSU and may indeed come out a little flat. If we could get Murray out of the game our chances do increase considerably.

I'm more interested in their physical condition coming into the game than their emotional state. LSU was very physical. Gurley may be out and iirc Marshall limped off on at least one occasion.

Not only that, but last year's defense gave up multiple 3rd and long conversions to Georgia State and Troy. We didn't know it at the time, but there were signs that our defense was bad early in the year. Georgia State couldn't stop us, and they eventually faltered some. But, I could not believe how many plays they made in the passing game.

We've seen some of those this year, although certainly not to the same extent as last year.

georgia is not near as good defensively as last season, but don't be fooled by these numbers.

georgia has completed the varsity portion of their schedule

The teams we have played are ranked so high in pass D because they played against our terrible offense which gave them inflated stats, look for Georgia's pass D ranking to improve after the weekend

Georgia's schedule does get easier. After us (whom they should beat but hopefully won't), only Florida really stands in their way to the SEC Championship game.

But even against really good competition, the 108th worst pass efficiency D is awful.

i understand, but by the end of the year they will be around the middle of the pack in the country.

just like florida's defensive stats are going to look less like playstation numbers by the end of october.

no. just better competition will fare better.

the defensive numbers will still be impressive, just not ridiculous.

but, the offenses florida will face in october are about to improve just a tad and they will miss easley against opponents who have good offenses.

Georgia's offense appears to be so good, it masks their defensive short commings. We must remember this is the 6th ranked team in the country and they present a mighty big task for our Vols. If we could somehow upset Georgia it would be Huge to say the least!

stats dont really concern me as they tend to be misleading. if we execute well on both sides of the ball and dont turn the ball over we will have a chance (as always). we have yet to fire on all cylinders this season though, so i am hoping it clicks this game. i will say i expect uga to come out flat after that brutal first month of a schedule and the slugfest they were in last weekend. obviously i expect us not to come out flat like we did for south alabama. even when we were winning 31-7, it looked very uninspired. to be expected though with a young team after 2 big games with another coming up

Cam Sutton is the one everyone exploits but he has made quick strides and stepped up. it hurts when we rotate in second team corners and second team safeties.

Our passing game is worse than their passing D. Now we may improve but that's how I see it. More concerning for us is UGA knows how to score points and Murray is playing like a 4 year starter on a great team. Look at his stats they've gotten better and better each year and he's peaking.

Maybe we catch them napping but even if they wake up late they still have the ability to beat us.

They just had a tough game, Gurley may not play and they are probably overlooking us and thinking about Mizzou. It is a trap game and we can sneak a win if things go our way...winning on turnover ratio, penalties, and special teams, taking good angles/not missing tackles and being consistent on offense. A tall order but it can be done, especially with strong fan support.

GBO!

I expect something similar to this.

The ninth-ranked Georgia Bulldogs survived a couple of first half special teams mistakes and a 21-21 third quarter tie to roll over the North Texas Mean Green 45-21.
Murray connected on 22-of-30 passes for 408 yards, three passing touchdowns, a rushing touchdown, and an interception. His TD tosses were caught by Reggie Davis, Arthur Lynch, and Chris Conley.
Murray’s three touchdown passes pushed his career total to 102, making him only the second player in SEC history to reach 100. He now only trails Florida’s Danny Wuerffel (114).

I honestly don't think they even did a plan for North Texas. I think they just prepped for LSU and winged that game. Assuming they come in flat it might look like this game but by the 3rd they'll be rolling.

Maybe they're just prepping for Mizzou this week!

Gotcha. I don't think factoring in our 10 interceptions against Austin Peay, WKU, and USA, gives an accurate depiction of our defense. JMO.

Correct. We also have multiple picks where receivers just missed the ball and our guy was trailing the play and got the int. these would be incomplete passes if our secondary was in their grill because we wouldn't have time to react. There have been very few picks where we jumped the route for a great play.

As rough as we've looked on Defense, it's insane to look at the improvement in those numbers and realize how once in a lifetime awful last year's defense was.
