They haven't lost a home game since October 2019. As much as I hate to say it I don't think the streak ends Saturday. That's also the only home game Kirby has lost outside of his first season there. And when we lay eggs, it's always on the road.

Just hard for me to watch Georgia be as bad as they have and think we don’t have a shot with Nico. They’re not great on offense and not Elite on D like years past. Not sure what makes yall think it’s such a mismatch

Craziest environment Nico will have faced thus far, desperate UGA team and they’re going to get the whistle. We haven’t clicked on offense at all this season and UGA’s defense is still a top 10 unit.

I gotta see it on the road for me to believe it. Think we’ve been bailed out by Neyland several times this year.

I’ll still be in some bar in Boston VTFU’ing tho

They absolutely lose to UF and Alabama if those games were in Gainesville and Tuscaloosa, or even at a neutral site.

Theyre just not that good. Environment will be crazy but I’m not worried if Nico plays. We will be right there with them

The absolute only comment I want in response is Carson beck is not great, because true!

Otherwise you’re just orange tinting it (which is fine because fan!) and I’m not really listening.

The way Heupel coached that Arkansas game, I almost think he was trying to lose.

The mask came off the offense in that game, that's for sure. I actually believed Heupel at first when he said he "slowed it down" against OU, the implication being he could have ramped it up but didn't need to because OU's offense was so awful. In reality he was running the offense like that because he had to.

I hate to say it, but Nico's only played one good half of football against a defense with a pulse this year (second half against Alabama). Everything else he's done either been against warm bodies, hasn't been asked to do much, or simply hasn't been very good. And that's assuming he plays against UGA, which I am far from convinced of.

Most of the theorizing I see about Georgia winning convincingly relies on a mythical "they're angry, their backs are against the wall" narrative. Considerably less actual explanation of why they'll just line up and beat us.

Now - we can point to why they could. Horror show of procedural penalties on their DL shifts. A Kirby disguise knowing Nico will throw those underneath routes to find rhythm. Etienne, Frazier, and Delp take turns making Arion have a bad day.

So they are probably angry. With their backs against a wall. But teams get to that place via ~playing poorly.~

I remember being depressingly convinced they'd show us who's boss in 2022. Less so this year.

Nothing mythical about “UT plays poorly on the road. UGA plays very well at home.” Sometimes it’s that simple.
