Did anybody notice how bad Matthew Stafford played against South Carolina?
Now South Carolina has a fast, underrated defense that is led by thoe outstanding twin linebackers and a pretty stout defensive line+ Captain M. who is a good corner but Stafford consistently made poor reads...at least three of which would have been for 30+ yards and two definite touchdowns.
Instead UGA struggled to move the ball and tensed up when they approached the Red Zone.
A bunch of "experts" claimed UGA would win the SEC East behind Stafford as he was the best QB in the conference.
Judging from his outing on Saturday Stafford still hasn't found himself.
Stafford played ok
the trouble was the freshman on the o-line. a few more games and they'll be fine
Agreed. I was disappointed in the loss but not all hope is gone. We should some flares of greatness and definitely did not play up to our potential.
This game was lost at the line of scrimmage. With the exception of a few plays, we couldn't consistently run and USC ran all over us, most notably when we had to stop them w/ 5 min left. This is due to a rookie line.
Stafford played fine. He didn't win the game I guess..he didn't lose it either (no INT's this season? Quite an improvement). I look forward to more of him.
The receivers played ok. A couple great grabs...a couple of key drops.
If you were watching, we were very close to winning this game despite being outplayed by USC thanks to Staffords leadership at the end. A few penalties and a few drops kept us out of the endzone.
Also, I would be really surprised if Richt leaves. I think this discussion is way off base. The fans at UGA love him despite his conservative play calling. Last season was a rebuilding year and before that he had an amazing record specifically in away games. With a few exceptions I really like that Richt handing over playcalling to Bobo (that playaction super playfake on fourth sucked though). Richt's recruiting and player management (w/ the exception of say the loss of lockdown CB Oliver). The loyalty to Richt is there, Ive not really heard anyone say anything bad about him in all my time in Athens.
Look to UGA to play out a decent season as Moreno and Stafford find their groove.
Look for them to dominate next two years as the young offense gets more experience and Bobo finds the right balance of plays.
