109 - Scoring D
110 - Total D
115 - Rushing D
104 - Opp 3rd Down %
126 - Time of Possesion

128 total teams..

They're as good as anyone offensively, but that hurry up isn't doing any favors on the other side of the ball.

 

[Shmuley]

They could fix that next year ... if the NCAA would stop snooping around.

 

[KurtRambis4]

The hurry up, and the

fact that teams can just pound the ball over and over and over, wearing them out.

 

[msstate7]

Really hope Georgia can run between the tackles Saturday. If they can, they'll keep doing it and may shorten the game enough to win it.

 

[coach66]

Depth getting them later in games.

[DerHntr]

I'm not saying they are much better than those stats reveal, but they did play #1 in in the country already and possibly a top 25 team at Florida State (no way that team should even be top ten after what Louisville did to them).

Their hurry up offense is going to kill them all season.

 

[57stratdawg]

They have been gassed the two games I've watched this year. I wouldn't even want to venture a guess what they're averaging per rush in the 4Q this year.

 

[Wizard.sixpack]

they are definitely the best 2 loss team in America. This is a team that if they had 2014's defense would be a major threat.

 

[coach66]

I don't think Georgia has much of a shot because they can't stop Ole Miss from

scoring but if they can establish the running game and force Ole Miss to come up in the box then it could get interesting with a QB that can spin it and stretch the field.

 

[MSUDC11]

They've let freshmen QB's get them twice now. Hopefully Eason is the third.

Like others have said, I'm not sure if Georgia can stop them. Swag is the best passer this conference has seen since Manziel and Murray.

But if UGA can hang with them, Ole Miss's defense could wear down again and Chubb could have a field day in the second half.

 

[Wizard.sixpack]

This game is going to be hard for Patterson to watch. Especially if Eason lights it up.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Yeah he's such a good passer that he leads the conference in turnovers. Lol.

 

[johnson86-1]

fact that teams can just pound the ball over and over and over, wearing them out.

I don't think anybody can just pound the ball over and over and beat them. UM's offense is explosive enough and their run defense is good enough for a half that a team that just tries to wear them out is going to find themselves too far behind for wearing them out to do any good.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Yikes, that's below the McCorvey line

 

[MSUDC11]

Yeah he's such a good passer that he leads the conference in turnovers. Lol.

Wanna show me an SEC quarterback that's better?

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Take out Wofford for passing his stats and so far he's 47/90 @52% 734yds 7td 4int 2 lost fumbles. Fantastic he is I tell you.

 

[KurtRambis4]

I didn't

literally mean run it every. single. play. Bama did just what I'm speaking of. They just wore them out.

 

[patdog]

"Best SEC QB" is pretty much just the tallest dwarf these days.

 

[Wizard.sixpack]

Exactly. There is not a stiff competition this year at all. Chad Kelly is garbage. He'll be back to working the street in 2017

As much as I'd like that to be true, it's just not. He's a badass and is going to make a lot of money playing football.

 

[dawgstudent]

He needs some better ball security. He's cost his team 21 direct points in 3 games.

But I do think he will definitely make a pro roster.

 

[TheStateUofMS]

He can throw the ball down field really well and get it to his play makers. He's a great athlete as well. He is turnover prone and his maturity is questionable, but he'll definitely be drafted somewhere.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Yeah. You said he's the best since Manziel and Murray. I bet I could name 5, but I don't have to look far and give you one. Dak.

 

[rugbdawg]

Any Ole Miss probation updates?

 

[rugbdawg]

Problem is that Georgia's OL is bad and struggled with Mizzou's Dline. Mizzou's Dline is actually really good but not in the same ballpark as Ole Miss'.

 

[MedDawg]

Exactly. There is not a stiff competition this year at all. Chad Kelly is garbage. He'll be back to working the street in 2017

Just like last year, most of his long passes are jump-ball launches. He can hit a wide open receiver like Engram 30 yards downfield, but mostly OM has really good receivers who are able to out jump or wrestle the ball from defenders. So the passing game is successful and OM deserves credit for that. But Kelly isn't as talented as his stats, or at least make sure to count his turnovers when looking at his passing yards/TDs.


Seeing the strong WRs for OM win jump-balls last year and this year (even against 5-star Bama DBs) made me see think we need to try that more. Last year Bear was able to catch some jump-ball passes, and I bet Fred Ross could this year. Some of our younger big receivers who can't yet run crisp routes could make some of those, too.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

No he's not. He makes horrible decisions and doesn't have it upstairs.

Indeed. A lot of Kelly's completions are borderline miracles. His receivers just out wrestle the defender and make some crazy athletic catches.
