Thoughts About UGA Football Program Now

growl, looking forward to meeting LSU again. Feel that circumstances a while back in Sanford Stadium, we got the shaft on one play. Game will also let us know just how far we have come against another SEC Giant.

Really going to be an interesting year, and if I were one of the teams on our schedule,there is much for them to prepare for. Particularly like this comment from ogredawg.

We have a solid offense proven point machine. Can play with anyone. O line has a year together under its belt if the same ones start. Will leave that to coach Friend. I like his "Army of nine" concept.

One thing is for sure we will know what we have by the 3 game I for one say this team will be some thing we have not seen before all heart and pride no me all team.
Also Murray came back to win it all nothing else will do,

DWS, wlayton has made a point of saying that this offense is all that. Others also. AM might and will get stopped on occasion, that is football. With his experience reading defenses, many receivers that can and will catch the football, spells trouble for those facing Georgia.

Really like the thoughts of scoring points many different ways. These runningbacks and fullbacks will have much to be proud of this season. Really want to see Quayvon Hicks in action . . . . against the likes of that young man from South Carolina that is all that also.

ogredawg and I are on the same page with Will Friend. Needed some pp and vinegar to get the young pups attention, Friend is doing that. He cares about his players but, have to give me this . . . . Will Friend is "old school". Rewarded by deeds. Left offensive tackle means a lot this season, do however like having a quarterback that is capable of being mobile, and he has mentioned that he is not frozen in space.

Edit: Went back and read the below about AM.

Murray rushed for 167 yards as a freshman, then 111 as a sophomore and minus-68 as a junior. Of course his passing numbers improved each year because he was learning to be a better pocket passer. Now Murray would like a good blend of the two, or at least sprinkle in some good runs.

“I need to move more,” he said with a laugh. “My freshman year I ran a lot more, at least was a little more agile. I don’t know if it’s because of the hits or what, slowed me down, I’m an old man. But I felt like I just needed to lose a couple pounds, be able to maybe catch that (extra) five, seven yards if I can.”

While I don't mind him running a little (and getting down), I find it very interesting that the 2010-11-12 season records show that the LESS he ran, the better our record....a fact....just caught my eye is all.....

Could the coaches (CMR/Bobo) be right??

Ok, start the bantering.....actually is a good discussion.

Really enjoyed reading the link below. Reinforces my thoughts and feelings about those that post regularly on this board. While reading the content in the link, took me back to some of the scribblings that are brought to the front here. Was like going over the many posts on our board that have basically said the same thing . . . . not basically, have said the same things. Football

Don't get me wrong, DavetheDawg did a good job in my way of thinking, regardless of who said what first, it was said. Really like hearing it from someone outside of our immediate circle. Makes me think that we know a "little something" about what is going on in Athens.

The video of the two champions from North Carolina, everyone that engages in discussing Georgia football should watch that video. It has been posted our site.

Many topics open for discussion in DavetheDawg's thread.

I particularly like #15.

Actually a very good post wlayton.

AM in the early going had to figure out how to discipline himself a bit. New from high school, got away with a few things, would bet the farm one of the reasons that Richt/Bobo cautioned him was simple. Young man, this is not high school football, SEC can change ones thoughts. Opponents watch film and every player has tendencies.

What I think AM is saying . . . . Got the Richt/Bobo methods down. Last few years have been more of a pocket passer, good thing. Now maybe he can go back to the beginnning of his college career and run in "select situations". That would come from being able to read what is going on, called experience, allows that yardage he referred to . . . . 5 to 7 yards to keep the defense on the sideline. It forces the bad guys into situations that they prefer not to be in.

I know this, in the short time that AM has been our quarterback, there has been some awesome defensive talent that he has had to contend with. Young man has a big heart, is not afraid, also is not stupid. Going to watch him and his mates this season playing with a lot of effort, beginning with Clemson.

Finally, AM knows that he has to get down, he did not fully understand that in his first year at the helm. This is the year that getting down, playing smart, so to speak enhances his chances in the NFL. My opinion.
