Cats coming to town.

The play that you mention Wartdawg, New England has made a living on for quite some time. Beauty is, even though the defense knows the play is in the offensive book, still hard to cover.

Have had thoughts that we would see this from Keith Marshall. Whether he comes out of the backfield or lines up in the slot, (would prefer him in the slot) along with Hicks and Gurley in the backfield, and AM able to use his "wheels". Don't really know how this can be defensed. Still comes back to the offensive line. JMHO.

Also, opens up other "possibilities". We have receivers than can burn you or come back to the ball. Lots of talent in Athens.

Good football post Wartdawg.

I think we can score on anybody but have to agree somewhat with TampaDawg. My concern is they will run downhill on us and I'm not sure we can "man up" and stop it. I think we can win the game though but also agree with ogredawg that we had better jump out to a good lead.

If LSU gets on top of us they are going to pound it.....their D isn't as strong as in the past but their OL is VERY good.

Key to this game for me is....can we stop their running game? We stop it or even slow it down, we will win the game....imo.

Goes without saying .... this is a BIG game. If UGA is going to go to ATL and be considered for NCG and crystal trophy, we must win the big games.

UGA will have to play a flawless game and hope LSU makes a few mistakes. LSU is a solid team top to bottom. We match up pretty well, but their D is more experienced than ours. Os re similar in philosophy and talent.

Should be a good game. Hope our special teams play is that - special- and not what we have witnessed so far.

Go Dawgs! GATA!

Yeah... it forces a LB to try and cover the back. If it's zone, the LB is dropping back and you hit the back underneath. If it's man, then
a LB has to try and stay with a KM.. lolol good luck with that. If the D goes into nickel or dime type coverages, then the O can just
check to a power run and if they can get past the first level the D is in big trouble. All you have to have to make this play work is a
credible threat at TE and a back that can catch. It's similar to the middle screen except you are trying to hit the back in stride already moving forward in the second level. Not all teams have the personnel to run it, but we do... in spades.


wlayton... agree completely. If we don't get slap run over, we have a strong shot to win.

Believe that you are on your game Wartdawg!

Appears that we remain a 3 point favorite as of today. Standard spread between two good SEC football teams. When I see those numbers, know a little about both teams, better hold on to the football. Special teams have been mentioned in this thread a couple of times, that makes me a bit nervous.

Found myself looking for a long range forecast . . . . If forecast holds, this could be a barn burner.
