If Saban beats this GA team twice...
- Thread starter machineheadCAT
- Start date
It should be, but might only be a battle for the first 40 minutes. It depends on just how many people suit up for either team or both. I could see either team crumbling a bit if they get down a bunch early. There's a LOT of guys put for Bama, and we won't have the ridiculous ctest numbers until game time.
Could say the same thing about UK, just like the media has for 20 years.
Georgia isn't UT. I think they can beat Bama, unlike UT, but they will still.have to show me. I'll be bruised afterward from pinching myself, but if they beat Bama the world will finally make sense
I like UGA in this one. If Bama had their WR, I'd lean towards Bama in a close one. I say UGA 31- Bama 24.
I think the UGA D will also be inspired after giving up 41 to Bama in the SEC Title game.

Not the same situations. Saban is part of the satanic football cult out here slaughter’n goats.
Georgia is a great team this year no doubt. And they could beat Bama, maybe even logically probable given the fact they’ve already lost to Alabama and the weaknesses. I’m just assuming Saban is going to want this one worse than Brady wants another in Tampa. I think Alabama wins this one by the Saban system itself.
Bout made me spit out my drink! Lmao

He is for real though!
Could you imagine being like a backup center right now going through a walk throughs and screwing up some simple sht right in front of Saban? And all he needs is a clean little snap to work on something with his running back?
Kirby knows what’s about to happen and so does most of the Georgia fan base. There’s a certain mysticism IMO when it comes to a situation like this. The ghost of Georgia’s past still looms I’m just tellin yall.
I would be afraid to call it, my head says Georgia, but can you go against Ala?
Napoleon Bama-mite
Beware when Saban says "I hhhate you"
Dude's probably got a little bit of hair from each player and a voodoo doll that looks just like em
Disagree completely. We played them ultra conservative in SEC championship game on both sides of the ball. Even if it's incomplete I believe you have to stretch the field. Bama's DBs were sitting on our short game because we didn't threaten them deep.
Bottom line we game planned scared,afraid to stretch the field and afraid to pressure Young. When we sent 4 or less Bama averaged 11+ yards per play, 5 or more and it was 4.5. He has to play them aggressive like he played the other 13 games. Results may not change, but they sure aren't with another conservative gameplan.
Plus, UGA is not going to play the same defensive approach as it did in the SEC game. Expect more of what Auburn brought. It will be multiple and designed to put more heat on Young, and heat from different locations. UGA played it too safe in the SEC. I think UGA will sacrifice some rush yards to Robinson to bring more exotic blitzes.
I agree on defense you can and should be more aggressive.
But in offense….Bennett can’t stretch the field very well and he’ll give up TOS of you out the game on his shoulder potentially. I’m not sure I want him throwing the ball 30+ times do you?
If Kirby doesn't beat Saban this year with this team vs a banged up Bama, he never will.
That's how I see it as well. Young is awesome but he still struggles a bit with pressure. If Kirby doesn't try to put heat on him, he's asking for the same result. Williams can get behind anyone, even double teams.
Agreed. It will be interesting to see how Saban prepares. He must know (some would claim the SEC game a conspiracy) that UGA will play Young differently. UC tried, they just could not do both, apply pressure and stop the run. How do Saban and O’Brien move the ball? Establish the run and quick passes? Harder to do without your best possession/short yard WR.
I think Kirby thought his line and linebackers could get home in the first game. Bama had issues on the left side every time I watched them this year. Saban adjusted and UGA allowed Young enough time to pick them apart. Saban is a master for sure, he will throw some new wrinkles at Kirby who doesn't appear to react as quickly. I think Kirby does as you suggested, twists, stunts, delays, anything he can do to speed up Young's progressions.
After the UK game I said Bennett does not look like a QB that wins a national championship. UGA has one heck of a defense, but that kid can lose them this game. And I think Saban is going to help him do that. I might be wrong, but we will see.
If UGA has to rely on Bennet with Will Anderson bearing down on him, I think you are correct. Kirby's whole job in this one is to not allow a track meet, if he does, it will play out just how you say.

He did have some great Jimmy and Joe's based on NFL results. Off the top of my head, Jamar Chase, Burrow, J Jefferson and Edwards-Helaire.......those 2 WR are already two of the best in the NFL
You seem to think UGA is playing UTEP. Mark Richt is not the coach in Athens any longer. UGA beats Bama in 17 Kirby's 2nd year without 2 blown calls. The last 3 years teams that had historical offensive season ended UGA's season. Only 1 team can win the NC each year, Bama has the Heisman winner at QB and a WR with almost 1500 yards receiving, a guy that led the country in sacks, but it's under achieving to lose to them? Bama will have more 1st team AA too. UGA can win the game, could lose it, but either way it will be in the hunt next year.
Oh, Bama doesn't have the Heisman winner, the national sack leader, a WR with 1500 yards. UGA has a good team, but not the stars Bama has especially on the offensive side. And if Kirby doesn't adapt and open the offense up he may never win it without rule changes favoring the defense. Every team winning the NC has had an elite QB, UGA is playing with a walk-on, and that is the difference in the game.
UGA is the favorite and college football fans that have followed the season know why. UGA should have beaten Bama for the SEC championship. It will beat Bama on Monday night, absent something wild happening between now and then.
Nothing you said changes the fact that, as far as resources, UGA is historically the most under achieving program in the country. The only argument I’ll give you is Texas, but they’ve actually produced something of late.
UGA has too many resources to have one title and that’s attributed to a once in a generational talent. You have friggin Atlanta to recruit from, lol.
There’s no need in defending the Georgia program. As a fan you should be a little embarrassed boss. I mean the saying isn’t Florida is South Georgia, it’s Georgia is North Florida. There’s a reason for that and as a Georgia fan you should find it inexcusable.
If you guys don’t win this title I’m not sure it’s going to happen for a while if ever. With Oklahoma and Texas coming into the conference and Saban likely to pull a Joe pa, that window for Kirby is going to be smaller.
I forgot you had a team of walk-ons and low 2* recruits. IMO UGa has the better talent overall from top to bottom. Yes, their QB is better, but you have the better team talent-wise overall. Nobody is making you all play a walk-on QB you have had multiple recruiting classes to fix that position. I stand by my previous statement, if Kirby doesn't beat Saban this game then he won't ever do it especially with the players Bama will be without for the game.
What exactly does having Atlanta to recruit from have to do with anything? Is there a wall up that keeps other programs out? Every kid didn't grow up in Atlanta or pulling for UGA. Nothing you have said is correct. Mark Richt was one of the best men in college athletics but he let the program go down. When Kirby arrive we had zero OT on the roster, not one. We not talking history, what happened 10 years ago has nobearing on today. If getting to where UGA is as a program today is underperformed then there is only 1 that isn't.
UGA may not win a NC before I die, but as long as Kirby is there anyone in the East expecting to get to Atlanta has to beat his team and why every single East fanbase dislikes him.
I have to agree. The narrative that Kirby has somehow underachieved seems to me more like wishful thinking or sour grapes.
This is all I am asking for. I believe the two best teams in the nation are playing and it could be one of the best championship games in many years.
When considering all factors, UGA might be the easiest school in the country where a coach should win.
The fact that Bennett was a walk-on AT Georgia is irrelevant. I am not sure why that is repeated so much. It’s a good story, but it does not describe his talent.
