There has been much debate about whether or not the SEC’s accommodation of Florida’s COVD outbreak and subsequent rescheduling was good or bad for Georgia. I’m of the opinion that having the bye week after the Auburn, Tennessee, and Alabama games was and is much needed. Despite their combined records, there is no question that those 3 teams are the most physical in their style of play that UGA with one exception, Kentucky. Kentucky is a very physical team and one that is built roster wise in a similar construct to that of Georgia. The Wildcats pride themselves on a hard hitting defense, a ultra-physical offensive line, and running backs (and even a QB) that run in a downhill, slashing fashion.
Monty Rice, Jermaine Johnson, James Cook, and several other key players have been banged up at varying times throughout Georgia’s first 4 contests. The Dawgs have been able to use this week, according to Kirby Smart, to focus on correcting areas that lack execution, build depth, and maybe most importantly, rest players whose bodies needed time to recuperate. Going to Kentucky is never an easy trip for Georgia it seems and under Mark Stoops you’re guaranteed to face a group of players that compete for 60 minutes and are well coached.
Georgia’s offensive line more than held it’s own against Alabama averaging 5.7 yards per carry, not including the 2 sacks taken by Stetson Bennett IV. The O-Line and tight ends will need to produce that same success rate with even more attempts, especially on early downs, to win this football in the fashion which Georgia should. The Wildcats are physical with their front 7 on defense and Kentucky heads into their game this week versus Missouri only allowing an average of 106.3 rushing yards per game. That mark is good for 4th in the SEC behind Georgia (65.5), Texas A&M (75.5), and, shockingly, Mississippi State (103.3).
The fact that Kentucky has to play a game this week on the road at Missouri is a definite plus for the Bulldogs. I have no fear of Georgia overlooking Kentucky next week. Kirby Smart and his staff have plenty of mental errors and subtle technical glitches to hone in on and to use as teaching tools to re-center and refocus the Dawgs for the 2nd half of the season. This week Georgia’s Head Coach alluded to the team working “on themselves” in press availabilities this week. Georgia will focus in on Kentucky beginning Sunday and will be looking to implement a physical “Georgia brand” game plan to help them defeat the Wildcats and head into Florida with momentum.
so recruiting question. Would folks be happy if we go ahead and take Amari Daniels (if he wants to choose us over AtM) or do we wait for the chance to get the kid out of Michigan
it really depends on what type of back they want. daniels is a smaller dude
True but he might be a nice change of pace
to what we have now with Milton/Zeus or another speed back to add to James Cook. I think we need more speed in the backfield and we haven’t had great luck the last couple of years waiting on backs to commit at the last minute.

He looks good tonight. Some really nice touch throws and then good zip on an out pattern as well.
im just worried of the huge learning curve once he gets to college and hes surrounded by athletic people everywhere
Agreed. Hopefully Daniels or Beck will be QB1 next year and give Vandagriff time to acclimate. Side note, my son played for Coach Vandagriff a few years back.
thats awesome. Yea if brock is the starter next year either the QB room is really bad or hes picked it up really quick
Malaki Starks 3 TDS in First Half reports state.

BVG !!!
score o to o middle of 2nd qtr.
Glad he’s there but is there a connection to the school (family member playing for example) that allows him to do so since coaches aren’t currently allowed to make in person school visits?
Son is a water boy for Price Ave so
bases covered.
Excellent. Can we get CKS to adopt a California and a La kid so he can go see Forman and Smith as well. ### kind of.
Ha ha !
I Would take 1 of 2
Hopfully Foreman.
im rooting for Forman as well but tonight I feel like being greedy so I want both
never thought of them not being able to go to games. I bet kirby made his kid be a water boy lol
Maybe is wife can be a water girl like Mrs CMR. Lol
He can attend any game he wants as long as he doesn’t contact any recruits.
Pretty sure during this dead period coaches can’t attend any games or schools. That’s why you haven’t seen our coaches on the road at all to visit coaches etc
Definition of dead period taken from the NCAA website.
What is a dead period?During a dead period a college coach may not have face-to-face contact with college-bound student-athletes or their parents, and may not watch student-athletes compete or visit their high schools. Coaches may write and telephone student-athletes or their parents during a dead period.

lHow do you edit this new way
That’s how, the thing at the lower corner got it
Seems to me that as good as Zeus can be he needs to step it up it up to keep Milton & Macintosh behind him.
Is Luke Ford finally going to get to play for Illinois tonight?
its illinois. they still have time to say they wont play this year lol
FYI.. the Thunderbirds are at the Rome Air Show tomorrow and Sunday. They are doing a “drive in” viewing this year. The Thunderbirds are staging at Dobbins ARB here in Marietta and they are keeping the leaves out of our gutters.

nice. i think later this month they are doing a rare airshow around orlando with the a-10, f-16, f-22 and f-35. I guess they are hardly ever all at the same show
Rummy,
the A-10 is the warthog right?
yep. I think the 3rd oldest attack plane in the air force outside of the b-52 and f-15
October31/November01..Lockheed Martin Space and Air Show.

Marietta Dawg,
I Used to go to Dobbins Air Show every year back in the day.
The Marines had that jet that could also fly and hover like a H.Copter.
Talked to a Brit that flew them
Roswell Dog Here.
the harrier. The f-35 replaced them and that specific model can do the same thing
Thx Rummy,
it was wild when that thing came screaming down the runway and would turn to the crowd and just hover.
yea they were pretty loud. Loudest plane i’ve ever heard was the f-22. That plane has so much power you can feel it on yourself
Getting up fallen leaves may not have the same effect on recruits committing as mowing (did that last night although grass is definitely growing slower now) but I’m going to test it as my yard is full of leaves. Y’all have a good rest of the day/evening.
have a good one. Lets see if it works lol

Just click on the smiley face
Well ain’t that nice
Honestly, in most ways, this commenting platform works almost identical to Disqus.
Speaking of smiley face why doesn’t the smiley face show up that I selected within this text box? https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.0.0/svg/1f603.svg

It may just be one of the features that Greg hasn’t been able to activate/customize yet. If you read down some on the thread, this platform didn’t allow him to modify in anything other than a live environment, so he’s obviously having to prioritize tasks for the most important functions/features.
I could be wrong but i think he said the previous platform didnt allow him to make any changes. This one he can do what he wants.
That’s correct but he can only make them in a live environment (i.e., he couldn’t have prevented a lot of these hiccups by making changes in a test environment and then launching the platform with those changes into a live environment).
Yea i think once he irons this system out it will just be like the last one. Seems the avatar thing is really the only big issue. After a few hours on this is pretty similar like you said
This ! works !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
all joe kennedy needs to be happy
Finally figured out and had to create a new account
All i had to do was just make a account. IDK why i didnt have to choose a profile picture and it gave me this one. Must be a previous system or something
Yeah I had been commenting as guest for couple days even though it was using my old avatar.
oh ok a few years back i remember we briefly used a comment platform that required gravatar so it must of auto linked for some people because of the email addresses
By the way Rummie,
does the admin job salaried or hourly?
i get paid by post## he promises my checks are just lost in the mail#

at this point im not really sure if zues is the out front #1. mcintosh and milton have really played great.. Granted if i had to rate them right now i would still have zues 1 and cook/mcintosh 2

put your cursor on the time stamp of the tweet and paste – it will automatically embed
ahh ok so like the old old way lol
I hope you kept those parachute pants from junior high as they’ll be back in style soon – what’s old is new again.
parachute pants were wayyyy before my time in junior high. When i was in jr high is was huge jeans and wallet chains circa 2003 lol
Okay it’s official this new system is in full scale suckage mode. I ain’t lyin.
well, that’s helpful
Definitely different
Why are the comments section now all Orange/Yellow? Is this still a UGA website? We need Georgia Bulldogs colors.
i think yellow means new comment. this was the only one that was yellow until i clicked it
It is and if you run your cursor over it, the yellow disappears
yea i figured that out. It is kinda nice to not to half to search for the new comments lol
I’m putting you in charge of the color pallette
I feel like this site is comparable to being an officer in a homeowners’ association – everyone stops you to complain about every little thing but surprisingly, doesn’t want to be part of the solution to fix the problems
1man,
you have it nailed down big time!
Here’s a solution. Go back to the Discus site ASAP.
You can go hang out in the Disqus site and that’ll make you (and all the rest of us on this site) feel a lot better ###
Are you the reincarnation of So_Fl_dawg?
Not sure who that is so I’ll have to say no. I’m just being extremely cheeky this afternoon as I don’t really have anything else distracting me at the moment.
It’s all good – this will settle down soon. Either we flip back to Disqus or stick with some version of this.
The thing with Disqus is that it is completely their thing – no modifications allowed and there is no control over down-time. They are serving worldwide and if they are attacked everyone goes down and stays down until they fix it.
This platform is working off our server, so we have complete control. Additionally, we subscribed to a really expensive and secure server a couple of years ago have had one outage (lasted about 8 minutes).
I got your back, Greg. Dang, we have a bunch of instant gratificationer’s on here (I’m taking full George Bush privileges and creating my own words) and won’t give you a little time to work through some issues in the settings and functionality of the site.
BTW: I’m color blind. 😉
lol – btw I replace all of the reds with the official UGA red (#BA0C2F)
i am so confused.
You’re just now figuring out what all of us have known for a long time ###

im not on for a couple days and yall change everything and got me fired as a mod## https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.0.0/svg/1f605.svg
Rummy,
How Is Your Day Going?
just been busy busy busy. how bout u
In the man cave watching movie/ now Dawgnation to see what Jeff Sentell Has On CRUTING. https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.0.0/svg/1f600.svg
anything thing of note on the crootin front from him?
Sentell in nutshell as follows:
need DB’S that can take 50 50 balls to like 60 40 balls to good guys.
need at least 6 or so CB/Safety.
need really fast wide outs, one on roster now A.Smith.
2nd RB Small Back from s.fla or D.Edwards which would be my pick.
getting 6 DBs on the same campus that are all experienced enough to do that will likely be impossible anywhere. Granted kirby sure is stocking up on those types. The issue vs bama was they were just perfect passes that only the WR could get.
The WR speed thing isnt that big of a deal to me if they cant run routes or catch lol.
Not sure why a small 2nd rb is that big of a deal.
My Thoughts are they want A bruiser type back with home run speed.
kenny M. Is that type but Kendall Milton is not.
L.Carroll is though.
We’ve been trying to get rid of you for years but you don’t really catch on to hints quickly so we had to take matters into our own hands ###
It was a mutiny, I tells ya ###
its more of being too stubborn to listen https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/13.0.0/svg/1f60a.svg
I just changed your status and gave you a raise – triple your old pay rate
Dang – now we’re never going to be able to get rid of him as he’s like an old dog that just hangs around and won’t ever go home ###
im just too annoying to leave https://socialbanjara.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/giphy-1.gif
You’ve got to stop with all the motion gif’s as they’re giving me motion sickness (particularly that jurasic park one)
Is this system supposed to allow you to login from the old discus data? IF so I must be doing something wrong.
Never mind.
Was having a bagel at the Columbia SC Fairfield this AM.. when a guy in a UGA shirt came up.. He told me that the Swim Team is in Cola for a meet ..but only parents are allowed to attend. Guess all that chlorine does not scare off Covid.
You’ll catch funk in Cola that Ajax won’t take off, so USCe is really doing a good deed for the general public (when you get home, you need to take a strong Clorox bath). ###
I get an email from UGA each week that discusses upcoming events and all sports that are currently being played with the exception of football are ‘no general public access’ so this may be an SEC policy instead of one that is elected by each institution.
It’s crazy that Bama is only favored by 21.5
Time for my walk:
https://media1.tenor.com/images/252022ee1bb988e1a17f9a30cdae8205/tenor.gif
Greg,
you’re killing me.
How far do you walk Top? I do my old man walk as well. Usually 3-4 miles when the knees allow it!
It is about 6.5 miles
That’s a long one. During the approximate 3 months that my gym was closed, I did a daily walk that was a little less than 3.5 miles but includes lot of long, gradually rising hills. I lost about 20 pounds doing nothing but walking (i.e., didn’t change my diet, portion sizes, etc.)
geez u training for a marathon or somethin?
I doubt u are bent over like that. lol
Strange with no game this weekend
Joe,
how was the work out.
Thanks for asking. Very exhausting. Lol. He’s still mad about his vols
Yeah lol ,
All coach’s except for Pruitt And probably the AD are getting pay cuts.
Well then you’re gonna dread next week after that thumping that Bama puts on them.

I wonder if they would promote Steele?
IDK, but they always want to make a splash
Very true. Will they have the money to make a big enough splash?
I think there would be significant backlash if they fired Gus and paid him that ridiculous buyout and then the best they could do is to promote and/or hire a coordinator with no previous head coaching experience. AU fans are the west’s equivalent of UT’s delusional fans and they truly think that their school and team is a top 10, if not top 5, destination for both academics and sports. I think the AU administration (President and AD) would need to hire a fairly big name guy who has been a successful head coach (Les Miles or someone equivalent) to appease the fan base.
If you look at it from a recruiting perspective he is surrounded by UGA, UT, Gumps, LSU. This is going to be a tough row to hoe for anyone.
Napier and or Healy would be better with the right OC.
