Post-Game Discussion: FLORIDA vs Georgia

What is Smart’s first offensive coordinator doing these days?

 

How many times did LSU, a lesser team that UGa, punt? I would have to say however incremental, its an improvement and at this point I'll take any improvement.

 

Richt left UGa well stocked with talent and Kirby brought in the #2 class in his first complete recruiting cycle. He entered a much different situation than Napier has.

 

Hopefully, we can win out and finish 8-4.

 

OK. You say I am negative, I say logical.
And I didn't exactly predict sub .500 record, so there is that, too.
As for the constant seasonal comparisons to Smart's first year. It is total BS.
So next year is playoff or bust because that is what Smart did. Is that fair to add to? Feel free to add all the caveats you want (Richt left much more talent) when it adds to your narrative.

As for my "garbage" takes, and your constant "google is your friend" comments (Urban Meyer was 9-3 his first year, FYI) I will sleep just fine.

 

That is all true. I guess the OP should perhaps should lead with that.
I just don't like the seasonal comparisons. In doing so anything short of title game next year then would be failure.

 

It is very true fans are quick to bring up middling first seasons by great coaches while dismissing expectations of actual greatness achieved in year 2 or 3.

 

When you have all your receivers together, you attract a herd of the defense making AR’s decisions harder. Spread it out for him to give him a better ability on the pre snap reads. You know, all those routes we can’t cover

I don’t know if it just CBN offense, he thinks he needs blockers in or what.

 

Meyer was 9-3.
Do you feel compelled to argue with everyone on here?
No one is turning on anything or bashing Napier.
Here is an idea, why don't you do the OC play calling?
Just loved how thoughtful your analysis was. What was it again, "AR should just run more and throw less." Groundbreaking, innovative stuff.

Someone get Stricklin on the phone, and give this guy a blank check to join staff

 

this what i mean

 

I'd like to see what Oregon would do against Georgia if they played now as opposed to the 1st game of the season. Maybe they flop again but nix is actually playing well now. Georgia looks beatable this year. Bennet should have been picked off two more times and that's with very little pressure if any.

 

UGA is still really good but they played us fat and happy like some 90s FSU teams. They weren’t as sharp and focused as last season. But it doesn’t mean they couldn’t play like that in a truly big game. We were obviously not a real challenge.

 

“Florida football can be great again, and Napier, a meticulous, smart, relentlessly energetic CEO, is capable of that build, if Florida fans give him the time to do it.”

“It’s just that it won’t be an easy. And that has never been more obvious than after Georgia’s 42-20 Cocktail Party win on Saturday.”

Florida football: Georgia loss shows just how large gap between the Gators and college football’s elite has become

 

Oh i don't disagree. They could turn it on in any given game but let's not act like Kirby and the team overlooked us. He is their spurrier and he hates us. They just aren't sharp right now. Missouri maybe was overlooked but not us.

 

Apparently someone is hitting the portal. Man, bad look for the him, the team and coaches.
Unless of course, once again, I can’t translate twitter

 

Torrance would be the best lineman on nearly every team in the nation…

A slow developing pass game doesn’t help

 

Yep.

 

Yep.

 

We have some really, really questionable coaching.

I know we aren’t allowed to say the quiet part out loud around here, though.
