Pretty good read, but I wonder if Jimmy realizes Arky was 8-5 last year... not 10-4.

article sucks. y'all think we're just going to stay the same from last year. no improvement at all. I guarantee we will be better than last year, a lot better.

Should we believe the hype?
What hype?
The hype about Boobie Miles.
Now hype is something that's not for real. I'm all real.
GO DAWGS!!!!

"Georgia has to be considered one of the most talented teams. Look at schedule: going to SC, ASU, LSU, Auburn and playing Florida. That has to be the toughest schedule in the country. If they survive, they make it to the SEC championship. There is no way that Georgia gets through that schedule, no matter how good they are."

Since when does the schedule mean anything? Georgia was supposed to lose several SEC games last year that they won. Georgia over Florida in the SEC East in spite of what some 'expert' thinks.

Yeah...this is thread number 247 on the issue by my count. We get it....Georgia has a brutal schedule....NEXT??
Phyllis-But it is a big deal. You almost killed Stanley.
Dwight-Yeah right! I filled him full of butter and sugar for 50 years and forced him not to exercise!

Isn't it already well known that Georiga has the best team but their schedule is just too tough? Florida does have the best shot to win the East even if they do lose in Jacksonville.

Of course people think UGA has improved. Improved enough to overcome a significantly harder schedule than last year? That's the question.

And lost some they were supposed to win... barely scraped by Vandy after losing to them the year before. I guess that's the point. Undefeated in the SEC is tough... undefeated through that gauntlet at all those away venues is going to require a lot of breaks and bounces for UGA. In any event, anybody who thinks the schedule is irrelevant in the SEC doesn't follow football very closely. They call them home-field advantages for a reason.

I'm going to kill a puppy the next time somebody starts a thread about how tough Georgia's schedule is.

Kill a kitten, not a puppy. You know what it means every time a kitten dies right?

I know about home field advantage and you do bring to light about lucky bounces. I follow Ohio State pretty closely and they're known for lucky bounces. I just don't think it's appropriate to say that Florida's season is looking brighter because of an easier schedule as the article implies. I know that UK should have won some of the games they lost too because of those 'unlucky bounces'. It's what makes college football great.
