    PTCDawg asked about 2017 WR Nico Collins yesterday and if Georgia had a shot at him or were the Dawgs on the outside and looking in.
    I thought Georgia was a longshot here, but after talking to some other folks on Collins, it seems the Bulldawgs have now moved up as one of his top 3 schools along with Alabama and Michigan.

    You mean the info on Sony, the wrong Natty count, or the ridiculous Kentucky upset alert? Which one?

  3. freddawg

    Greg Poole If you’re referring to the one national championship they cite, they probably gave the other one to Alabama.

  4. Bulldawg Bob2

    Bulldawg36  Anything’s possible, but that is asking a lot of a first-year head coach who could potentially be asking a true freshman QB to play a lot of minutes this season; not to mention the questions at kicker and possibly punter along with a young team overall.

    Bulldawg Bob2 RobDawg IYH_BI I mentioned it on the dedicated page, but where did @IYH_BI play his college golf?  lol!

  6. Bulldawg Bob2

    Bulldawg36  It’s possible. I don’t think Georgia could lose more than 2 SEC games in order to do so though, and I don’t think they can have 2 losses against East division teams.
    The Dawgs could lose to Ole Miss, but they would still need to beat either Tennessee or Florida in order to capture the division title.

  7. Bulldawg Bob2

    TeeHDawg   I think Georgia could take six o-linemen whether Dixion decommitted or not, but they could pick up another d-lineman …. Solomon.

    MMCSDAWG freddawg bahits  Hood didn’t have but 14 carries in the game because Larry Fedora for some unknown reason went away from running him. After watching that game last year, I wondered if he had stuck with Hood if the Tarheels would have upset the Tiggers?

    AlphaDawg I am still livid that that scrub from Auburn was awarded best center in 2014. David Andrews was the best center in CFB by a landslide. Reese Dsimukes can barely get teams to look at him. Howcome these kids can’t see that our players are NFL ready when they come out of UGA and the players coming from Auburn, Bama, etc are a bunch of duds?

    RobDawg  Thanks RobDag. IYH_BI and I had a lot of fun doing the show. Looking forward to the next one

  11. freddawg

    bahits  It helps that college players don’t have enough time to prepare for a more chaotic gameplan that a running qb requires.  In the NFL, those guys know their assignment in every situation.

  12. MMCSDAWG

    freddawg MMCSDAWG Let R. Smith or Natrez catch him coming across the middle on a delayed cross or slant….

  13. bahits

    MMCSDAWG freddawg bahits I have always believed that in college, a running QB is better than a pocket passer.  It often takes too long to develop the timing and understanding between him and the rest of the team vs. the NFL pocket passers are better because they don’t get pounded as much.

  14. RobDawg

    Bob did an excellent job with the interview with Huck which is a Soundcloud out today. It was very entertaining and the addition of the movie soundtracks was spot on. Huck’s comments were great and informative. Very impressive job Bob

    Bulldawg36 You’re gonna need to put football out of your head for a while.  Embrace the change.

  16. freddawg

    MMCSDAWG Yeah, and that Switzer kid doesn’t strike fear into my heart.  Five foot 10, decent speed but not a blazer.

  17. Bansai buckeroo

    You could always pay the doctor to slow down the labor…your wife would love you for that…..#####

  18. MMCSDAWG

    freddawg MMCSDAWG  Exactly, they also lost one of their top receivers from last year who went to Detroit in the NFL.  Quished Davis.   It should be an interesting game, but if our team can control the LOS on offense and defense, it will be a long day for the Powder Blue!

  19. Bulldawg36

    Ole Walt Deptula thinks he will be better than Williams. That shows you how much of a troll Walt is. Y’all should call his show and tell em off. Frustrate the man! Do it for me!!!

  20. freddawg

    MMCSDAWG  Not having that potent running threat from the qb changes the entire gameplan.  Receivers have to run different routes against tighter coverage, OL has to block differently, defenses change their schemes.

  21. Greg Poole

    Bulldawg36 That girl wouldn’t dare come during a Georgia game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  22. Bulldawg36

    I agree. I’ve just prepared myself because their is gonna be many bumps in the road with Kirby being a first year coach. But who really knows for sure, we could get lucky like that ole gator coach and win the east!

  23. freddawg

    Bulldawg36 Too many unknown variable right now for me.  If we get competent quarterback play and stay healthy on the DL, we have a decent shot.

  24. Bulldawg36

    I’m scared of em!!! I may miss the game anyways if my wife has our little girl!!!!! I hate the Tar Heels!!!

  25. Bulldawg36

    Not many replies to my question about UGA winning the east!!! I guess y’all don’t have the faith or the rainy weather had scared everybody off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  26. MMCSDAWG

    freddawg bahits Not even close, here are the stats for Williams last year, so who replaces the lost production?  

    Passing: 3,072 Yds / 24 Tds / 10 Int
    Rushing: 948 Yds / 13 Tds
    Receiving: 37 Yds / 1 Td
    Total: 4,057 Yds / 38 Tds / 10 Ints

    I know a lot of people think Trubinsky is going to be as good or better, but I don’t believe that to be the case, he may be a better “pocket” passer, but he is not nearly the running threat and he hasn’t faced an SEC caliber defense.  He played a total of 1 play against Clemson in the ACC championship game.   Who lead UNC in rushing against Clemson in the ACC championship game????   That would be M. Williams with 18 carries for 81 yards compared to E. Hood with 14 carries for 65 yards.

  27. freddawg

    bahits It’ll be interesting to see how their offensive success carries over with a new quarterback who’s not as good of a runner.
