This will probably be the best chance we have against UGA, and it could potentially be our last as well. They don't have an all star QB this time around, and they don't really have the stable of WR's they've had in the past (at least off the top of my head). I'd be interested to see if we throw some tempo at them since I don't think it's something they see all that much in their division of the SEC, so we could get the defense on their heels a little. We've always been able to rush fairly well against them but they were able to keep us out of the endzone.
If we're having a good year going into that game, they should be worried. We've played them once with a team that was really operating at its peak, and another when we were damn close. We've never been able to catch them on a low though, this could be the time.

The kid they will have playing this year, especially by the time we get them, is better than Hudson Mason. Better runner, better passer. Ga's D will be improved and their running game will be as good probably. We still have a chance because we arent the same team either. We are much more capable right now to be a P5 team than we ever were. I dont imagine Ga will continue to play us if we continue to get better and start to beat some of the P5 teams we play in the next few years.

But ULM has a better shot? Right.....
I see all losses...the cajuns have the best shot at the upset..

Of course they look like losses you are not the favorite if you upset someone. ULL does look like the best chance not to lose.

RE: P5 Upsets?
we definitely need as many OOC wins this season after the year the sun belt had last year. There are definitely some winnable games on there, we just need to take advantage. I'm ready for the SB to finish over coosa in conference rankings.

BTW, Not obsessed with either of you (ULM/Southern) . . . . But ULM poster didn't come in here saying they were "beating Ga." Southern poster did, if other posters find that HIL ARIOUS, don't get your beak bent out off shape . . . .

P5 Upsets?
If folks on this board want the SBC to look better out of conference and not have as many GS posters bragging on here, you need us to beat UGA. It would be a huge OOC win against a most likely ranked team, and a good number of our fans would get arrested for the weekend after storming their field and tearing down the goal posts.
