UGA would've gotten spanked by Oregon, too...

[MurfVol]

I'm sorry but I disagree I think GA is worth the hype look at who they have played and they showed up in every game. I think with a healthy Gurley running the ball I think there just as good as any team in the nation. To be honest I don't see them lossing any more games that's just my opinion. GO VOLS!

GA is ranked to high...POOR DEFENSE

 

[MurfVol]

How would Oregon stop Georgia? That would be a great game.

Oregon would beat GA by 21 +++++

 

[Volsfaninva917]

And their offense will fizzle, as well, when they have to play Florida. I do think our offense looks much worse than what it really is, simply because we have played the best offense in College and the best defense. Plus, Oregon's defense > UGA's.

Had it not been for turnovers, we probably would have come out of the Swamp with a W. It's like that old adage, "it's never as good as it seems and never as bad as it seems." I do believe this team is MUCH better than what we give them credit for. Our main problem is that we simply haven't gotten SEC caliber play from our QB position, and in the SEC, one big weakness can be the difference in W's and L's.

UGA is close to having 2-3 losses already, so I don't see them as being a juggernaut, by any stretch of the imagination. If the staff can develop Worley enough to simply be efficient (like Daryl Dickey was in 85), this can be a good SEC team.

We may not have a lot of experience at WR, but we definitely got more size and talent than most teams do, so, I'm not as concerned about them as most are.

You do know that UGA has played 3 top 10 teams so far this season right?

Keep Dreaming, Slappy.

GA Would Score On Oregon And Probably Could Keep It Within About 14 Points.

They don't unless you are determined to see nothing good and are blind to the "stuff" guys like this post and the attitude behind it.

Don't be like the left-wingers who think Muslims only hate us because of conservatives.... 99gator thinks you're stupid too. He likes you better because you help him look down at UT...

The last one if you have listened to what Jones wants from the various position groups on O and then watched what they did.

The D might have taken a step back. The O grew up a little more.

I Respectfully Disagree. 99 Doesn't Start Threads Bashing UT From What I See. He Chimes In When Our Idiotic Fans Start Claiming That The Stats Show UT Is Back And That We Will Destroy Team X Or Whomever Our Bubbas Wanna Rag On.

Same For Most Of The Gators On Here That Post Regularly. You Guys Get Mad Because They Don't Agree With You And The "All Is Well" Crowd.

we have been over this ground before.

when there are positive things to speak of, i will. i have no problem doing that. i made a post in a thread about there being noticeable, across the board, improvement in special teams. i am not saying something negative about tennessee because i hate tennessee. hell, i am one of the biggest fans you have this weekend. but, like espn, cbs, and anyone who is not blinded by the big orange, it's difficult not to notice what is obvious.

tennessee has struggled in recent years, badly. so, what is one supposed to say if one is being honest?

even to use your example. you say you saw improvement against south alabama.

i'll take that at face value and accept that. how bad are things if there was noticeable improvement in a game, at home, against south alabama that was an eyelash from going into overtime?

i have been consistent about the season for tennessee before it happened. i have not changed my mind and have not seen reasons to change my mind.

1. qb is an issue.

2. defense lacks speed and is still pretty poor.

3. salvation for the program is on the recruiting trail, where butch is doing well. and i was telling people how bad dooley's recruiting was before it was cool.

4. 2014 will be better than 2013 because people will have been in the system for a year.

5. tennessee had a better shot to beat florida than oregon.

what i don't understand (just to use an example) is if i say oregon will beat tennessee badly because tennessee isn't good enough to hang with oregon, you will say i am condescending and bashing the tennessee program. then, tennessee goes out and gets blown out. i don't get credit for being right about that. i was just a jerk.

there is not much i have posted about the tennessee season that has not come to pass. i even mentioned that it was a bad idea to start peterman before the florida game in a thread that week. that was when EVERYONE was dying to bench worley. i said it was a bad idea. i understood the decision, but thought it was a bad idea. i even explained why and that looks to even be fairly accurate. i also made comments about peterman when he was recruited if you want to go look in the recruiting forum for it. but, it's not like i may have an opinion that's different than yours that could possibly turn out to be correct. no, it can't be that.

i have defended butch jones because i don't think he has much to work with. if you think that's condescending toward the talent at the program, show me some "facts" that tell me i am wrong because all i see are a bunch of losses.

i have never, not once, bashed butch jones. i have never said he can't get it done or won't get it done.

sounds 'bout right to me. i've read on some other forums some pretty nasty florida posters. this guy seems fairly reasonable.

 

[ptclaus98]

Basically he's playing more aggressive rather than apprehensive. I would much rather someone make a mistake while trying than to fail by not trying. IMO, he took almost no chances until after he was benched. Afterwards, he started playing looser and more as if he had nothing to lose.

The issues you point to and others are correctable. If he had not taken those shots then maybe UT beats USA worse... but the coaches have nothing to coach him up on. He is taking chances and going ahead and throwing to where he expects the receiver to be rather than only throwing at open receivers. That was an open criticism by Jones that he's improved on. Now they can work on assuring the receivers get there and that they are on the same page as to where that should be. Again, before he actually started playing like that... there was nothing that could be corrected.

The second pick if I am remembering them in correct order was blamed on Pig by Jones. Worley said they read the coverage different. Nontheless... that's something that can be reviewed and coached.

Throwing into coverage like he did to Pig can be coached.... and if the read had been correct the pass would have been perfect.

Oddly to me the tipped ball may have been the worst read of the game. The one view they gave from behind showed two receivers too close together with defenders in position. I'm not sure where Worley was going with that even before it got tipped.

That INT and the bad short throws are the most troublesome to me. The other mistakes lend themselves to improvement by coaching.

The coaching isn't taking, though. If it was, he wouldn't be throwing into triple coverage to a man that had no size advantage when the game was at the tipping point. If it was, we wouldn't have gone the majority of the second half having problems with the offense. Justin Worley hasn't improved, as a matter of fact, you could take a look at his stats and there is a trend of regression from game to game when teams get better at stopping the run. And take notice, I said stopping the run, not stacking the box. Teams aren't doing that.

I've known him in the chat board sense for about 5 years now. He was probably more overt on GVX... but the attitude has not changed.

What difference does it make whether he starts a thread or just chimes in? And I have not claimed that UT is "back".... and he certainly isn't limited to those who do.

 

[Cartervol]

They have enough speed to not get beat bad. They'd score 30 plus on Oregon's defense. Oregon might still hang 45-50 on the dogs though, especially at home.

 

[TXA&M07]

To the thread title: so?

 

[BOP]

Oregon could have scored at least 80 on us. No exaggeration whatsoever. We NEVER stopped them after they got their timing until they showed mercy. This Oregon offense is one of the best in college football history. Doesn't change the fact that we are terrible at every position group except Oline and that is no better than average.

 

[Jave]

I watched that Florida game and couldn't have been more angry at your team. You had them on the ropes, punching away, only to slip, fall on your face, knock your head on the counter, and break your wrist trying to stop the fall. Florida never stopped you, your offense, or what you fielded that day masquerading as an offense, killed any chance you had.
Props to the defense for keeping it as close as they could. There is hope in the land of giant tits and fake blond hair. You went toe to toe with Florida in the swamp and nearly won. Just. need. more. recruiting. classes. (had to try it).

 

[TXA&M07]

No one in the east can stop them.

No one in the east can score with them.

No one on the west coast can do either sans maybe, maybe Stanford.

It's not really a discussion.

 

[sjt18]

The coaching isn't taking, though. If it was, he wouldn't be throwing into triple coverage to a man that had no size advantage when the game was at the tipping point.

I disagree for two reasons. One- 4 weeks ago... he sails that one out of the end zone if he attempts to make the throw at all. Jones before benching him was trying to get him to take some chances and throw to spots. He did. Two- if you take chances and throw to a spot... you are going to make bad reads occasionally. It happens to EVERY QB. You hope to minimize it. The truly great QB's do not misread as often... but they ALL do it.

If it was, we wouldn't have gone the majority of the second half having problems with the offense.

That's not necessarily true either. But if the D had done its job... it wouldn't even be a discussion now.

Justin Worley hasn't improved, as a matter of fact, you could take a look at his stats and there is a trend of regression from game to game when teams get better at stopping the run.

He most certainly has gotten better. He needs to be more consistent with it now.

And take notice, I said stopping the run, not stacking the box. Teams aren't doing that.

They stop the run then adjust to what UT has had success with. Would you expect something different? They are continuing to install the O. The QB is developing. The receivers are developing.... there are limitations to what they can do to counter a D's adjustments right now.

That is not a surprise nor is it an indication that they have not improved including Worley.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Oregon has a good defense

Based on what, their schedule? That has to be a joke. Georgia has a much better offense than anyone Oregon will face including Stanford. Georgia would put a lot of points on Oregon.

Alot in the relative sense maybe. UGA would try to run the ball. Oregon really doesn't have to stop the opponent every time early for the game to get ugly late. They just have to wait for a couple of drives where the opponent doesn't score.

UGA scores more than UT and stays in the game longer... then they get beat by 25-30. Oregon hits their big defensive players with their tempo game and a D that already has some issues and youth after replacing 9 starters becomes mush.

 

[UTjonez]

I truly believe Oregon would beat any team in the nation by 14 or more besides bama and LSU.

 

[rocketskates]

I agree. They would have scored more than us but there are very few teams who Oregon wouldn't spank right now. I will be shocked if they aren't the national champs this year, they've hung 50 or more every game.
