“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23
Hopefully, Sony and Brian and Elijah will be able to carry more of the load the next couple of weeks.
I’d like to see a fresh Nick Chubb face a tired defense in Oxford.

No matter how great a back, there will always be a need for someone to step up and give him some help.

Nationally Chubb was over shadowed by the RB from Pitt that was back from cancer. At least he is back in the discussion for the Heisman.

It will be real fun if we could have a legit Heisman contender the entire season.
I believe the last time that happened was Hearst in 92.

Coaches are loving “Kirby the Genius” now and voted the Dawgs up to #9, at least till the next big game, LOL.

I can’t express how thrilled I was for Nick Chubb on Saturday. I can’t think of anybody else on the planet who deserved to have that kind of game more than #27. Chubb is the hardest working athlete that I’ve ever seen. And he certainly seems to be one of the finest men we’ve had in our program.
I really think Chubb’s my favorite Bulldog ever. So happy to see him overcome a huge obstacle. It’s inspirational.

Maybe but can you name ten that are definitely better than us? Not a lot of great looking teams in week one.

Chubb is now my 2nd favorite UGA RB. what cemented that was sitting in the dome and telling my dad before that long td possession that it didn’t matter who the QB was because that drive was gonna be about Chubb. Little did I know that the drive would be all of one play. I can’t think of a better sports example of humility, hard work and perseverance.

Well shit, Ed. I guess Bama would be in danger of losing without all those 5 stars as well. I guess there’s a reason coaches recruit so hard.

We’re gonna find out a lot about Smart’s abilities as a HC over the next couple weeks. Between what Chubb did and the huge jump in polls it’s gonna be tough. From what I saw from everyone else, yes, I believe we’re top 10 team but I wish the polls didn’t reflect that right now. Also, I believe we’re at least as good as anyone on our schedule but I also remember how that’s played out before. Just be like Chubb, guys. Just be like Chubb.
I also think it’s gonna be tough for Kirby to not micromanage and he basically admitted as much after the game. He’s got a tough road ahead.

Whether we’re ranked 9 or 19 this week, doesn’t really change anything. Still have a game to play and the newspapers won’t affect the outcome.
