The UGA OL looked like a bunch of swirling fatties.  Wow.  Amazing result.

It wasn't that amazing to me.  UGA had managed to play well most of the year and just laid a stinker with mistakes all over the place, and the offensive play calling seemed unwilling to put the game in Fromm's hands, which was the only way to stay in it.  They weren't going to run on Auburn, and the usual tactics against a heavy rush seemed to be absent from the playbook.

You have to be willing to pass on first down, and pass again on second.  But the OL was exposed for being mediocre (again) and a freshman QB no matter how good is still inexperienced.

Surprised me...after Auburn had PROVED that we couldn't run between the tackles against them...that we kept trying to do so.  Don't we have a few misdirection or reverse plays designed to get the running back outside...give Chubb or Michel a chance to get to the open field?  Seems like we just kept on with that "Let's just blast it off tackle again!"  And Auburn was the one doing the blasting.  (Reminded me of the offensive scheme back during the Vince Dooley days.)

Going to be interesting if Mark Richt finally wins a national championship, and it's with Miami.

I don't think this Miami team is in any danger of winning a NC, but who knows what the future holds.  Richt might have a lot of years left in him.

It would appear Coach Malzhan has learned to not take the foot off the gas against a good team now....excellent, dominating performance by Auburn EXCEPT on kick coverage and punt team.

How can our O-line play so well against Auburn and Alabama and look so shaky at times against Arkansas and Ole Miss?  

I guess inconsistency is what you get with multiple true freshmen on the line.  Prior to this year a tr.fr. had never started on OL for LSU in my lifetime.  After this year, I hope to never see it again.

Specifically, I want to see Fromm against the Barn defense.  I'd like to see AU get after him some and clamp down on the run to see what he does when he has to be the man.  But we'll see.  It may not come to that.  
It came to that.
