beat GA? Maybe it says something about the coaching skills of Coach Miles vs. richt. Never hear the media criticize richt like they do les. Has GA under richt ever really lived up to expectations?

The same way Arkansas beat LSU. When you're down, you're down.

I think that Georgia went in with an overinflated ego and didnt think they had to play to their full potential.... its not talent and its not coaching talent. It was purely execution... It is on Richt for not getting his team up for the game though.

We had big wins against UGA, Miami, and FSU

However, we should have lost to Gardner-Webb (10-7 win)...and we lost to a 5-7 Virginia team at home....and lost 28-7 to a 7-6 UNC team.

We play like a team that starts 16 freshman and sophomores...one game up, one game down.

That does not minimize how well LSU played last night though. The lines were tremendous.

That was the key. Add Jordan Jefferson, and we can only see what "could have been" for LSU this year.

Check the stats, yardage was similar. And passing percentage. The line play and the GT turnovers made the difference.

GT was way up for the UGA game - it's a very underrated rivalry game, and there's a lot of hate in that series.

LSU's line play was incredible last night and made all the difference.

I guess you missed the plays where JJ had to avoid 2 or 3 pass rushers and then make great plays on the run.

JJ played a great game and made some plays. But the biggest difference in GT's games against UGA and LSU was the play of the lines.

No, Douchebag. JJ was stellar. But getting defensive penetration that we had been missing all year, broke the option up before it could develop. That's how we kept them out of the endzone, and that's what made it a blowout.

3 weeks to prepare for a triple option doesn't exactly hurt either. If we had them on our regular season schedule, the results may have been a little diff.

No, and they're not doing it right now vs. MSU either.

UGA had a week to prepare. G-tech didn't turn the ball over on special teams and kill themselves.
