UGA might be pretty good in a couple years.

Anyone saying UGA isn't great this year just doesn't understand or watched them the past few years.

They tend to play to the opponent, which is normally a bad thing, because you MIGHT not get up for that good team.  But UGA simply doesn't play the same against Whatever State as it does vs Alabama or a Michigan. 

They get up for those opponents every time.

In a couple of years I heard we might field a defense.

A&M  41  USCe  31

MSU  27  Auburn  20

Kentucky 34  Tennessee 31

Ole Miss 38  Vandy 13

Florida 27  UGA  20
Wow, I missed quite a few, again.  And the two I got right were easiest to pick.  It's good to be wrong in such cases.

UK put up a fight but couldn't close.  The Vols looked pretty decent.  I somehow figured UGA would be flat and have TOs, not the case.

Told you last year…..UT doesn’t lose to UK.

I don't think UGA can be flat against Florida.

I think Napier is a good coach and on the right track but he hasn't had the time to get the guys to stand up to the UGA lines. I think, barring a 4 TO trainwreck, the Dawgs win handily.

Dawgs 31-Stinkin' Gators 10.

I like UK to upset the Vols afterr the Tide beats them rwice.

Chalk on every other SEC game.

Utah getting a td at home seems like easy money but that just means stay away from that game, the books are professionals for a reason. Ducks by 10.  Go Bo!

None of the other games this week are particularly appealing to me.
This wasn't bad but I was wrong on UT.  I never saw Milton playing like that on the road. Not looking forward to Neyland in the cold with a baby qb.

Obviously getting Ladd back was a huge bonus, I hope he can stay healthy.  I think he was a 3 star back in the day, he certainly plays at a high level.

I have more confidence in the Dawgs at this point with the next two home games, though they obviously could lose them.  Neyland will be a big ask.  A lot of these games come down to random events like TOs.

Florida has self destructed of late against UGA resulting in a very sudden melt down.

Aaron Murray has been mighty stout in his picks and game assessments.  Been watching his podcast he does with our former guy this season, and he hasn't been wrong much.  He said UGA wouldn't "improve" per se without Bowers, but would become more explosive at times due to Beck being forced to use other weapons with his security blanket gone, plus the return of a healthy McConkey.  By that point I had quit doubting him, which is why I picked the Dawgs to win handily.  It once again played out pretty well like he said.
