Because were playing the #3 team in the country that has immensely more talent and depth than us.

Your right , the puppies do have way more talent than us. But. We’re making the same mistake in this game that they made in the first game of the season. I don’t believe Georgia state is ranked that high.

Stop talking about Ga st. That was nearly a month ago. Let it go.

Not sure what else they can do with the talent they have to work with on defense. We can't find a way to pressure the qb. Our DL is below standards. The secondary can't be expected to cover for 20 seconds. Hell, I don't think we've gotten within arms length of Fromm more than once or twice tonight. Our secondary throws shoulders but can't/won't wrap up. They're always receiving the blows and falling backward. It's amazing we're as close as we are. Suspect that's about to change. Team looks gassed.

Shamburger has to be the biggest pansy when it comes to wrapping up a player. So sick of the shoulder lunges.

BT is just like him. Hell, very few in the secondary will lay a blow on someone. None of them will wrap up. Weakest position on the team IMO. Then again, our kickers are starting to get consideration.

In preseason they kept saying our secondary was supposed to be a strength. I never understood that.

Bad thing is we are going to waste good players like To' because we don't have the players in front of him.

UGA has a loaded offense, top QB draft prospect in FBS. The defense gave up some yards but gave the ball back to the offense multiple times with a chance to make it a 1 score game. All with zero pass rush, no depth a LB, and young guys all over the field. Everyone knows we need talent. What else can be expected right now. The D gave the offense multiple chances to make this a legitimate one score game against the no.3 team in the country.

We continue to improve we can give ourselves a chance against msu, uk, vandy, scar, and mizzou and turn this season around.

Defense has more personnel holes than Swiss cheeses. Gonna take some time to get right guys in there to run the 3-4.

Honestly I think this is why Simmons is getting the RS. We don’t even have a true nose this season. Next year we will have 2.

Clearly Pruitt is having some problems, the personnel not being lined up is indicative of that. But we also just don't have the players on D Line. They aren't even close to SEC caliber. Then there is youth sprinkled throughout.

Too many holes to not sink this year. If we recruit the D line well, my guess is with more exp everywhere else...the communication issues would improve as well.

Feel like our D is one big negative feedback cycle atm

The OL is just as bad. They're gonna get the QB killed.

Agree. I still believe this is a “throw away” season for Pruitt to get more of his guys in for that side of the ball. But Maurer gives me hope for rest of season (outside Bama).
