UGA is vulnerable

[LAVol1]

Unfortunately, so are the Vols.

Nico looked much better than Beck today. But, Vols receivers had their worst game in years. To beat UGA in Athens, Nico and the receivers have to have great games. Hopefully, the Dawgs get all they can handle in Oxford next week (Ole Miss will be playing for their playoff life). UGA could come into the Vols game worn out physically and mentally after those consecutive tough games. If UGA were to lose to Ole Miss, the Vols game would be a potential elimination game for them. This new playoff system makes the season really suspenseful.

If we can put it all together we roll the dawgs. We definitely have the talent, we have the coaching. But we cannot go down to Georgia and barely score in the first half.

It’s all so close. It’s right there. We literally have it on the cusp. If we can put it together come the GA game. We can win the chip this year.

If opposing teams keep barely scoring in the first half we can, but I’d rather not keep playing that game. It’s gonna bite us again eventually.

Tennessee has to have a solid rushing attack with no turnovers to hang with Georgia in Athens.

Georgia's offense has weapons that will test the UT defense. Kentucky's success with the running game against the DL is a concern.

Should be College Gameday game without a doubt…not a game close to as important that week

 

[EtowahVol]

Georgia will throw 3 TD's to the tightends. We can't cover and look back. Book it.

Why not? Georgia's offense has struggled a lot and Beck has thrown a lot of interceptions. I think the most likely scenario is a sloppy low-scoring game and we are very capable of beating them if that is how it plays out. If our offense gets it together we could win by multiple touchdowns, but that is a big if.

What are you talking about?

Bye week hangover and UK plays UT like its the Superbowl . UGA thinks they are the best team ever so they may play bad

Looked like a night off to me. KY ran the ball against UGA too though. I believe that game ended 14-13

This will probably be a low scoring defensive game. The key will be scoring off defensive takeaways. Our defense is gonna get a pick or 2 vs Beck, we will HAVE to score points off of those to win.

I think our D will keep us in it closer than what it’s been the past few years. The question is how the OL holds up and can our receivers take the next step.

I see four general outcomes as distinct possibilities:

a. Beck cleans up the interceptions and throws enough dots to consistently score on us. Mutts run us out of Athens.
b. Nico plays like he did today, while the receivers not named Bru or Donte elevate their level of play to match him. We embarrass Georgia between the hedges.
c. Neither a nor b happens. The game is an ugly defensive battle. Televisions all across the states of Tennessee and Georgia get roundly cussed out for the duration.
d. Both a and b happen. The game is a medium-score thriller not unlike the Oregon-Ohio State game earlier this year.

 

[DaddyChad]

Nico was good tonight. Hell the play calling was good as well. We left a ton of points on the field due to lack of execution. Kicking game and punt return were both terrible tonight

We have the number 1 defense against the run in the country. Why are you concerned. First play of the game was a 50 yard run. They had 116 yards rushing the rest of the game. And I'm pretty sure we've only allowed 75 yards rushing per game

lol I knew a post like this was coming.

Georgia is better than anyone we have played including Bama.

Let the air out of the tires on Beck's Lambo.

Of those four, I’d put my money on A or C. Call me whatever you want. Our 2022 team was never in the game, and this isn’t 2022. I see it being a 33-14 type of game.

I feel like some of you are forgetting we are not good on the road. Most recent example...see Arkansas

 

[FLVOL_79]

UT could win it all if the offense could click. Part of the issue is every other defense out scheming UT the same way which puts the UT offensive game plan on the backburner for the first half.

Because they hit one big pass to their TE who was uncovered due to a blitz? Ok sure

Gatas pretty much ran right at the dawgs all night and were effective with it. We have one of the premier rushing attacks in the country. Time will tell.
