Ok @HankHill...Time to give Chryst a shot...There I said it..JG is not getting better at this point, and this offense is not going to be good enough to hide his shortcomings. I know he has potential, but he just is not realizing that potential at all. He is just football dumb, and just can not process info quick enough to use his talents.

I really don’t think it will make a difference. I just wish JG would use his athleticism more if he’s not gonna make strifes in decision making and the mental aspects.

Might just be me, but was anyone else not really impressed with Georgia yesterday? I think their offense is a lot better with Fields out there...I don't think they are a playoff team

They’re very good imo. They’ll need both QBs down the stretch. Their game plan yesterday was good - basically decided they were going to grind us down all day and keep the ball away from us until our lack of depth revealed itself. It was a very Alabama esque win.

I don't think they are better than LSU, and if they lose to both LSU and Auburn, then they probably don't make the SEC East. We got to their quarterback quite a bit.

They can beat 10 teams in their schedule playing like they did yesterday.

They won't win a conf title game or a playoff game playing like that.

They're certainly capable of playing better. They have time

Georgia had success throwing at freshman Bryce Thompson, but Thompson and Taylor are the future at CB, and Buchanan had his worst moments (a couple completions to Mecole Hardman and D’Andre Swift’s ankle breaker) out on the boundary. He was much more effective sliding inside and the secondary had better communication with him there and Theo Jackson or Trevon Flowers off the field.

Darrell Taylor didn’t erase Tennessee’s overall pass rushing concerns, but he damn near tried.

The redshirt junior had three career sacks before Saturday. He matched that total against the Bulldogs. He whipped tight end Isaac Natua for sack-fumble, only to see UGA run it back for a touchdown. Taylor could only laugh afterwards, saying, “I couldn’t believe it happened. I mean at least I knew we had a long game to go.”

Pruitt credited Tennessee’s secondary for some of the pressure against UGA, specifically noting Taylor’s second sack (see above). Fromm was forced to hold the football because there was no where to throw it and Taylor collapsed the pocket and nailed the quarterback. “He’s one of the guys who’s improved every week,” Pruitt said of Taylor.

Darrin Kirkland wasn’t great live, but was worse on rewatch. He rotated with Quart’e Sapp and Will Ignont at linebacker, but with my eyes, he easily was the least effective of the three. The redshirt junior had one really nice stop in the hole, but otherwise routinely failed to make plays. Ignont still struggles at times in coverage, but I thought he showed some real flashes in the run game. He’s not afraid of contact.

While Daniel Bituli led the team in tackles (8), of all the linebackers, I was most impressed with Sapp. Considering what happened two weeks ago, all the noise behind the scenes previously and his health … for Sapp to play like that speaks highly of both the player and the staff to let bygones be bygones. ... Lastly, I'm not sure what the final count was but Tennessee had to miss north of 10 tackles.

It was another tough game for Trey Smith. It started on the opening two series, too. He didn’t block anybody on the first end around and got pushed back on the failed 3rd-and-1 run by Madre London. The sophomore is clearly banged up right now and the bye week is probably coming at a good time for him. …

After all the background scuttle about K’Rojhn Calbert throughout the week, the redshirt freshman didn’t play a snap Saturday.

Put the guy in that will move the chains period. Pruitt may have something going on with the defense. Going to be the same script over and over if the offense doesn't give the defense a breather. I like JG he is tough. Tough isn't the number one compliment you want in a QB. Give Chryst a chance . He did get them down the field against Florida.

They won't win the SEC, which means they won't get into the playoffs. I know Alabama did it last year, but thats because they lost to Auburn and didn't get to the SEC. I think UGA gets to the SECCG but lose it to UA.

UA is a machine this year. Could go down as Sabans best team and disgustingly one of the greatest teams of all time. Hopefully that will propel Saban into retirement.
