Georgia Southern scored on us...

I agree with McShea87, the ist string players on both side of the ball were very dominate. SO many weapons on offense and the D is unbelievably fast and physical. Only sloppiness came from the 6th stringers and boredom.

ok it was 38-0 when the starters started coming out of the game with like 5 mins left in the 3rd. the goosd part abt playing other players is more experience in a game situation. over the weekend our team was the only one who's back-up qb got a touchdown and espn even showed the highlight. if usc jumps us next time richt just needs to run up the score!!! all we ad to od was keep the starters in. all in all the team looked a lil sloppy at times but there were a lot of big plays which we lacked till the later part of last year.

Yeah, but can you point to a season where we didn't look rusty in the first game?

Sure: 2002, 2003 and 2007. We beat tail off of Clemson and Oklahoma State in those games, though. One thing that's always bothered me about Coach Richt is that his teams have had a tendency to play down to teams worse than them. Anybody remember just barely escaping UAB 16-13, or Colorado 14-13? Anybody remember going into the locker room down 2-0 against Vandy at halftime a few years ago?

That said, the Eagles scored one touchdown on our second-string and two on our third-string. I don't know that some of those boys will see any action outside of special teams against SCarolina or Florida...

You got me, but I'm thinking that if this is us looking rusty, then \"well-oiled\" is going to be pretty much unbeatable.
