This was a close game and to coin the over used saying, “it could have gone either way”, who thinks we could win a rematch or, if we meet again in the CG or playoffs?

Yes, we can beat them. We should have beat them.

They can whip us too.

I like our chances with healthy D line and either McCoy or Gibson, ideally both, back. Truth be told we need to focus on each game as it comes. AL, Ark, OU, UF are all losable games with a sub-par effort.

Be the best version of ourselves on each game day, improve, hold to the Maxims and we could be in for a lot of fun ladies and gentlemen!

Of course. Especially if we go for broke. When you're up on a talented team that you're 0-4 against and it's 4th and 2 from midfield be aggressive and go for it. The rewards far outweigh the consequences in situations like that, especially since the refs started cooking and helped Georgia drive and score after the punt anyway. They were on the ropes and shell-shocked after our first 3 series. We looked unstoppable. You score again and go up 28-7 and the doubt creeps in big time. I don't care how good of a game manager that Kirby is.

Not without McCoy or Gibson back in the lineup. Redmond is going to be good, but he’s still a true freshman and will continue to get exposed for the foreseeable future. Still proud of his resiliency.

Yep, he will eventually be All SEC type DB but as a true freshman UGAs game plan was to throw at him and get multiple PIs which worked. It was the difference in the game.

Both teams lit each other up. Who would be more likey to make effective defensive adjustments from game 1 to game 2, Kirby or Banks?

Everyone (including Kirby" admits were the more impressive team on Saturday.

So yes, we can absolutely beat them in a rematch.

The defensive adjustments won't matter too much. Our offense is gonna score points.

The question would be who is more healthy. We had 4 defensive starters missing. I would argue McCoy, Gibson, Moi are 3 of our top 6 defenders.

will each team improve during the season? or will they become worse? Does the question assume both stay healthy or lose more players, which is more likely. Its a hypothetical that cannot be stated with certainty because of the amount of unknowns.

I don't know. The offense ran out of steam late 1st quarter, early 2nd. One more touchdown then, I think would've made the difference. Could that be done in a rematch?

Well the rules state that there are no more sitting out transfer penalties.

I think offensively the adjustment we would make would be to try to establish the run a little more than what we did.

Right now I can't even consider the possibility of a rematch with UGA. Folks act like the rest of our schedule is a gimme. We got miles and miles of tough SEC games ahead. Even the "cupcakes" on the schedule look a helluva lot harder today than they did before the season started. Just pray we're over the injury bug and no one else goes down. Focus only on the next game. UGA is over. Forget it and move on. Keep patting ourselves on the back because of the way we played and someone or multiple someones on this schedule will kick us in the keester instead.

I don't think they hit that many deep shots on them again. They would have to win a lower scoring slugfest.. I think UGA would win this matchup 70% of the time with these two current teams. Saturday was Tennessee's 30% chance.

I don't really see any cupcakes. This conference is like tiptoeing through a minefield. I like the Arkansas matchup after the bye week, the rest who knows.
