Crunching a few numbers for fun, I discovered the following in 11 games thus far:

Our defense gives up just short of 27 points a game.  That includes Tenn Tech putting up a doughnut and Vandy putting up 10.

If you take the non Div 1-A school of TT out of the picture, our defense gives up 29 points a game.    We have given up over 40 points 3 times this season.   We have given up over 30 points 5 times this season - which would be 50% of the time if you exclude the TT game.

If you follow my game day threads, you know I absolutely believe the O and ST throw the D under the bus on a regular basis with big returns and turnovers.   But these kind of numbers speak directly to the defense.  Especially when you look at games like SC and Ark where our offense was scoring big and fast.

I am sure the stats folks like Kyle can jump in with even more, and I look forward to it.

Hey Y'all,

I intend this to be the first of a series of posts about the upcoming Dawg - Gator throwdown in Jacksonville.  Some threads will be a serious discussion about the game, and some of it will be filled with satire and humor.   Just to wet your appetite, there is soon to be a roast of Tim Tebow that will be ON YOU to provide the material- and I seriously hope yall join in on that one.   

For the Tenn fans out there - satire and humor means - nevermind.

So - to begin this series, I just realized Georgia MUST beat florida.  It's bigger than just the cocktail party.   The nation is dependent on us.   I think even Penn Wagers may overlook AJ Green smiling in this game.   I looked at their schedule and it seems it is on the Dawgs to dethrone this team that was pronounced champion before the season even started.   Sorry Gamecocks, I wish you the best, but I can't depend on you in a pinch.    Florida's schedule is so weak I think EPSN may have created it just to sound like they knew what they were talking about when they declared them champs.  After the Bulldogs, the alligators face Vandy and Florida International.  I am still not 100% sure Florida Int is a school, but definately not a school I am sure has a football program.   Hey, florida, after Charleston and Troy, you sure you couldnt pencil in Duke to round out your season?

I mean, really, do y'all remember now?   Florida was pronounced SEC champs before the season even started by everyone with a microphone, a camera, a beat, or a blog.   Well, maybe not this blog.    Maybe they will win it all, but it seems the University of Georgia Red and Black Bulldogs circa 1785 and you wish you were us is the lone gunslinger left to show the nation that the bigger the Gator, the more meat to eat!

GO DAWGS!

i just found out i have 1300 posts here.   which is like, uh, a lot more than most people.

I am scarred this means i am overdue a deployment, or need a life.   Or maybe I just wanted to push T Kyle to the ...to the, well, whatever the top of the blog world is.

tankertoad - need a life, talk amongst yourselves.........(and, feel free to bring the heat, i can handle it!)

West coast Defense to go with it.  Any thoughts on what ASU is going to try next week?   Can someone please phone CWM and tell him?  Its, uh, like, totally obvious.

I am going to go out on a limb here and say they are going to throw the ball all over the place.   The question is, will UGA have some sort of ball control to thwart the big play and a solid pass D?

So, my early, early, early thoughts are that 3 weeks in a row of this insanity can not happen or we will all die from heart attacks and UGA will win in a more normal football game by 14 points.  

Things that get way annoying that I hope change:  penalities.   1st and 10 bombs, repeat.   turnovers.  Poor kickoffs and coverage.  Poor punt coverage and returns.   not flipping the field.   not controlling the ball and clock and field.   and lastly, whatever on earth this Defense is doing in the zone. 

I am already looking forward to next week!
