Per Dave McMahon, here’s a breakdown of Georgia’s pass defense against Boise State versus the three games which followed:
… Georgia was stellar on defense in the last game as well. One of the major improvements throughout the season has been pass defense. Check out the Georgia’s stats after facing Heisman candidate Kellen Moore in game one compared to what the Dawgs have done in the last 3 games.
Comp Pct Pass Yards/Game TD passes Interceptions vs Boise State 82.4 261 3 1 Games 2-4 45.1 113 2 5
That translates into these specific defensive passer ratings per game: Boise State, 170.07; South Carolina, 85.50; Coastal Carolina, 61.99; Ole Miss, 79.39.
Rambo missing that first game may also factor into those stats. But one thing you have to feel good about is that Georgia won’t see a quarterback as stout as Moore the rest of the season.
Bray > Murray
We are doomed.
Oh really?
Lolz. Not so much. Especially now that Justin Hunter is out of the picture.
Not saying that I agree that Bray is better than Murray, but it is worth noting that Bray leads Murray (and the rest of the SEC, for that matter) in YPG, Comp. Pct., and QB rating. Granted, they’ve played fewer games, and an easier schedule so far, but still, the numbers suggest that this is hardly “lolz”-worthy. And of course, Murray hasn’t exactly been mounting a Heisman campaign himself.
I watched that UT/FL game and UF should have had 3 or 4 more INTs. Bray consistantly tried forcing passes into tight coverage that were simply batted away or the DB’s were unable to catch. UT has no running game which inflates their passing numbers. I’m not sold on Bray YET, I see him as nothing more than an average QB having to throw the ball 45+ times a game. IMHO
Ummmm….I was joking.
This is what happens when you joke on GTP.
All the pressure off the UT passing offense is squarely on Da’Rick’s shoulders now – just like he always wanted. Rambo says, “Be careful what you wish for.” That will be must-see TV.
TroLOLin!
“Georgia won’t see a quarterback as stout as Moore the rest of the season.”
At least until right before Halloween when we see the stout Charlie Weis’ version of the Air Brantley attack

…or until we meet Dan Persa and the Northwestern Wildcats in an epic Gator Bowl showdown.
We’ll see Robert Griffin III when we play Baylor in the bowl game.
Well, except for Tevin Washington, whose 286 rating dwarfs everyone in the nation and has Moore beat by almost 100 points
It’s hard to believe his name isn’t coming up in the Heisman discussion.
But it is, by drunk Tech fans.
Maybe the drunk Tech fans should show up for the Tech-NC State game this weekend with “Russell Wilson for Heisman” signs. I’m sure that would go over well with the NC State HC.
Oooooohh. Feindishly clever.
None of those other guys are even in the same area code of Kellen Moore. This is a slam dunk if there ever was one. Moore by miles.
Keep an eye on Russell Wilson too.
I was referring to guys we have or will play in the regular season. Luck and Wilson are very good. Moore is by far the best we will face this year in regular season.
Robert Griffin has more touchdown passes than INCOMPLETIONS.
70 for 82 — 13TDs in three games.
That’s astonishing.
Agree, I have never seen a stat like that after 2 games into the season. Griffin and Moore would be my front runners for the Hesiman at this point although I am not confident about KM’s future in football beyond this level.
The Mississippi State Bullpups are going to be VERY sorry that they stomped on the G in the middle of the field! Lay half a hundred on the Dawgs!
