Georgia's O-Line was a BIG question mark before the season. It's easy to put up big numbers against nobodies. Our O-Line is just plain big and nasty and we shouldn't have a problem running the ball all year. We HAVE to keep throwing it down field to keep defenses honest.

one thing to remember is they were playing from behind so they had to throw it in order to get back in game, so I say if we get up on them early we have a good chance of breaking 100

well, to be fair, Bama was up 31-0 in the first half. Running was not the focal point of the offense from an early point.

They played a very good game in all phases, but the 34 yards for Moreno is a little misleading

didn't Moreno get hurt? Did he have to come out of the game for any long period of time?

Big Herm, Ciron and Barksdale are all gonna play half arse because it's Bama and Saban and they are going to go easy on them on purpose because they are fans of nick.

Big Herm and company and Quinn Johnson and Charles Scott are going to knock the crap out of the Bama defense and we'll see if they can go toe to toe...

The UGA offensive line has 2 freshmen and 2 sophomores starting, I'm pretty sure. I didn't see the game, but I read that the Bama Defensive front manhandled them all night. I think our offensive line will be a little tougher for Bama to contend with.

Charles Scott would run on the Baltimore Ravens.

O.K., not really, but we will run against Bama. He'll have another 100 yd. game.

Moreno did have a bruise to his elbow.
He ran only 9 times for 43 yards or so. almost a 5 yard average. Great Scott can top that average and hopefully run 20 times.

plus i feel depth will have a little something to do with their level of success later this season. by the time we play them their d will be hurting.

all i have read is that bama has no depth. we will be playing them at a great time.

I think yall will be the first team to have a RB break 100 on us. Yall's line will definately be a test for our D-line. That will be the biggest concern of mine this game. If yall are able to get a running game going, that will wear down our D-line and while we've got a great starting unit, our depth is still not what it needs to be.

this is why i am laughing at those in the national media jumping on the bama band wagon.

congrats on a great start. but i just don't see how it is going to last. i think by the time we play bama will be worn down. if we played right now it might be a different story.

but then i am no expert.

I don't think we'll be worn down by the time we get to yall. I do however, believe that if yall commit to the run, which I'm sure you will, that we will be worn down by the 4th quarter, which is where the game will be won I think.

That was for the quarter or so that Georgia was still in the game enough to try to use him. Once it was 24-0 midway through the second quarter, it was pretty much a pass-or-lose situation, so they went almost exclusively to the passing game.

If we're down 24-0 in the second quarter, probably very similar to the game Moreno had. As long as we're in the game, though, he'll have decent numbers. Our OL is better than Georgia's, and of course we hope our defense performs better than theirs did against Alabama. That combination should insure that Scott puts up bigger numbers than Moreno did.

it's okay to speculate...we are fans...we can do this...you are NOT playing the game...i repeat, you are NOT playing

with that being said, right now i still stand by saying scott gets 100+ yards although my opinion may change after his performance in the next 4
