I like Klatt.  He's a welcome and refreshing anti-ESPIN viewpoint.
I'm not the biggest fan of his, but man he looks like a genius compared to someone like Danny Kannell or Joey Galloway or Desmond Howard lol.

Yeah, well I am. Oregon is a pretty good team. And UGA absolutely destroyed Oregon. Made them look like a high school team. Stetson Bennett is A LOT better than any of us thought he was- and he's an even better player now than he was last year when he lead UGA to the 'chip. UGA had 2 weeks in a row where they played down to poor competition and didn't live up to expectations- probably should've even lost to Mizzou- but they didn't. Since then they've went back to murdering bad teams the last 2 weeks. And that's what the great teams do- they murder the teams they're suppose to. The only real test they have left is Tennessee and that game is in Athens and Tennessee doesn't play defense. Georgia does.
Georgia is interesting because they’ve had a few stretches where they play like butt, Plus their receiver depth is more athletic potential than actual output at this point and their running game isn’t really “control the game” quality.

I hate to say it, because I generally dislike Smart, but their offense is really fun in a quirky way.

yeah their offense is really different, fun to watch. you don't really see very many other teams doing the stuff they do.

They don't appear unique to me.  They pass more than many think.

can't say I've ever seen a TE reverse or jet sweep til UGA did it....they seem to feature the TEs and RBs into the passing game A LOT more than most college teams. It's pretty cool to be honest.

The Dawgs two starting wide receivers have been injured most of the season.  Moncken has had to adjust for that.  And yes, they try and get their TEs involved more than most teams.

With the quality of tight ends UGA has, I would involve them as much as possible. They have at least 2 TE's that are already good enough to be playing on Sunday.

a good O-coordinator will find ways to get the ball into the hands of the best playmakers

if that is the TE, so be it.

The Dawgs got burned so often with circle routes I think Todd decided to try them himself, and they have some RBs who catch the ball well.

Some of their passing yardage is a one foot forward toss on that jet sweep.

I personally still have Ohio State at the top, not that it matters.
