Hell, I don’t have a clue what’s gonna happen today. I never had an inkling that Auburn would destroy the Dawgs three weeks ago, so anything I think about the SECCG should be taken with an enormous grain of salt.
That being said, I think this team and staff has enough of a sense of pride for history not to repeat itself. Not being blown out doesn’t equal winning, though. That’ll require a few things we didn’t see on the Plains, like better line play on both sides of the ball, more creative coaching by Chaney, special teams contributions and, of course, minimizing the fuck ups and loss of composure that led to the wheels falling off the wagon three weeks ago.
Can they do it? Well, I’ve already given you the reason for my doubts they’ll do so. Between getting the team focused and slaying the historical dragon that’s plagued this program for decades, Kirby’s got a monster of a coaching job to do today. That being said, this staff has already exceeded my expectations this season, so what’s one more unexpected pleasure?
I’ll be on the edge of my seat today at 4PM, with my fingers crossed. GATA, Dawgs. And, oh, yeah…
Have at it in the comments, folks.
Today is the day the Dawgs get to flip the script on past shortcomings and bring home our first ‘Ship in 12 years. 2017 marks the official beginning of the good ‘ole days!
I’m feeling more confident in the win after attending the SEC coaches luncheon and listening to Gus. Don’t think Kerryon will be able to do much and will be surprised if he is even in the game in the second half.
We have Nick and Sony (and others) leading this team; they have dumbasses like Trigga Tray and are drunk on Cammy Cam juice. I’ll take that all day long!
Today is about Georgia: Not going to concern myself about anything else today other than the Dawgs and this game. This includes UT, Ole Miss, Jimbo, Bama/OSU, Miami, Libs vs Trump, Matt Lauer, or Rocket Man.
For those among us that go into this game with a stutter or bitch ass thoughts (like Charlottedawg yesterday) , I say man the fuck up if you are headed down to MBS or sell your tix to a Dawg fan that will!! Don’t bring any negative shit into that stadium. Dawgs have not gotten the chance to play for something meaningful all that often – today is not the day to be a wussy!
Link to Charlottedawgs comments (scroll up a wee bit), this is a prime example of thinking like a bitch – https://blutarsky.wordpress.com/2017/12/01/the-sad-poetry-of-one-game-away/?c=560101#comment-560101
And, if the sun does not shine on the Dawg Nation today, we will NOT have to wait another 5 years to get back here!! Finally, we (well, Kirby) are building a real Mean Machine in Red and Black!!
GATA!!!!
P.S- to all you closet Kirby haters and other myopic, self hating “fans”: I truly hope you are able to finally get your mind right and enjoy today!! To quote a great man and former coach of ours, “life is too short”!

I don’t bet but follow betting action trends, and how the line has moved in the last 24 is shocking. AU was a 2 point favorite yesterday. As of noon today the line has moved all the way to UGA being a 1.5 point favorite. According to Vegas, AU is the underdog; try swallowing that one.
Apparently one of the most respected and successful sports bettors rolled in and dumped a ton on UGA, which helped move the line. Vegas obviously knows something; doesn’t mean we will win, but it’s a good omen.

Nobody wants you to be right more than I but thinking a running attack against that front seems like a long shot. And 42 is really optimistic. If we get that many, Fromm will have over 300 yards and 3 TDs. I think our running game has to look different if we succeed on the ground. We are capable but just feel scoring comes in non-conventional ways today, but I DGAS, just win baby. Let’s get the 1st rings for this team.

For a number of the reasons Mac mentioned, I think we have to win a close game. I just don’t see us consistently knocking their DLs off the ball. Therefore, the offense is going to look constipated at times. I would be saying the same thing about Alabama.

We’ve outplayed Auburn. Not by a lot, but by at least 4 more points.
