Georgia.

UGA offense is scary good. My goodness. Defense understandably not as good as last year. They didn't pressure QB like last year.

Kirby is rolling in Athens.

Not getting pressure on the QB is my biggest concern. But they were suppose to be a good OL and Bo was getting rid of the ball quick, but wasn't good. Secondary played well, the 1st int, was a WOW, play by a frosh, the 2nd Bo him him right in the stomach.

24 is legit. That play was unbelievable. Oregon moved the ball pretty well, but turnoversv killed them.
 
I was a little surprised how we looked yesterday. Oregon clearly isn’t a top 15 team, but I’ll take a win like that over anyone after losing what we did.
You enjoy coming to our board and gloating? Will you be here in basketball season?
 
I do not know if the Vols can out score Ga. but, I think Ga. will have to score 35+ to beat them and I hate Tn.

UT's offense will put up some points, but let's not forget they were throwing against MAC DBs and LBs. That won't be the case when he plays UK or UGA.
 
I don't see us beating Georgia, they just have too much talent. There isn't another game on the schedule we cant win with the qb and offensive playmakers we have.
 
GermantownDawg is a good poster. So is Grumpy. Honestly Georgia fans seem to be the most respectful fanbase that I encounter. May be biased because my sister in law went there and my niece is a huge fan...
You’re not biased, it’s true. Can’t read content of above posts from two posters because I have them on ignore, for good reason. But GTG and Grumpy shame both as posters on here. All class that I’ve seen.

I understand and you speak the truth, but, I think the UT offense was a load last year and this year they should be better.
 
What’s up with Gilbert not playing?

I have no idea, at one point he was over 300 lb, but is at around 250 now. All I can tell you is he is behind Bowers and Washington and apparently Delp. We have 6 TE that are pretty good, some are better than that. He played in the 4th with the backups. He isn't the blocker Washington is, or the receiver Bowers is, but he isn't bad. Just guys ahead of him I guess.

From what I understand, a tougher kid to coach and still struggling with a personal issue. Kirby won’t kick him off because his life would very likely turn downhill quickly if he does.

Annnndddd......he's a 5 star talent. If this was a third stringer, he would have been long gone probably.

No doubt they will be,but while our defense takes a step backwards, our DBs don't. Ringo and Smith saw it last year, the frosh S is better than I expected. Had an amazing int and led team in tackles because he played the 4th getting reps while rest of starters sat. Ringo is projected 1st rounder at 6'2" 205lb and 4.3 40. Good numbers for a CB. UT receivers don't run routes, they just try to catch you not ready.

What makes you think that? pre Kirby and Kirby have not booted kids unless there were some real issues regardless of depth chart. We certainly don't need him to be elite at TE with Boweres, Washington and Delp ahead of him ondepth chart. He is elite talent, I am surprised he isn't in the rotation with the top group.

Which tells you there are other issues besides talent. This Dude has been a problem everywhere he has been.

Some head cases just can't be fixed. We have had our share of them, just most not as talented as Gilbert.

At some point, character has to outweigh talent.......even for Kirby.

I don't think his issue is character, he hasn't been in any kind of trouble. Let's just say his time at LSU wasn't good for him. Mom stepped in and took control of her son's life. He is still trying to recover. They were giving him meds to get him so he could play, he liked them too much and is now in the process of trying to recover.

There is no doubt Ga. is by far the better team and should win the game. I just think it is going to be hard for most teams to slow their offense. Now the UT defense is another story and teams with good offenses like Ga. will take them to the wood shed and out score them because their defenses will get more stops than than UT defense.
