I think the OP nailed the biggest point...
Make Murray uncomfortable. This will be his best chance to prove to scouts he's ready to be a potential NFL starting qb. I don't know the exact stats but I know his record against top teams isn't very good. When we beat Georgia in 2011, we made him uncomfortable

Allen, rasco, hunter, freak, ego, Eugene, Thomas... Any or all blitzing players can make a name for themselves or earn the respect their hype lends itself too if they play well.

We haven't put a lot of pressure on qbs this season to date, that's the mission and a must for a W in Athens

Yup, absolutely got to get pressure on Murray, and then he's a different guy. He's not someone like McCarron or Boyd who can stand in and take the hit. He'll blink and start falling away.

Be careful about blitzing UGA. If there's one thing I like about UGA's offense (most of it I think is embarassingly overrated) it's their endless supply of pressure release packages. They are an exceptional screen team, and if you get someone like Marshall or Gurley in space, look the f out. They also have quick hitters to the TEs and even TE screens.

Clemson was able to get pressure on UGA with just their front four, and it was the difference in the game. UGA's OL is stronger on the edges than up the middle so Ego and Freak really need to make a name for themselves. They need to have the kind of game Logan did against Bama. Their OTs are pretty solid.
