Jimbo with an excellent point. #5 with bad coverage, but recovered to tackle Latu. Held em to a FG. Effort matters.

uga with a 49-yard field goal. 9-6.

Will anyone find the end zone tonight?

Alabama's defense is nasty. I will be surprised if Georgia scores a TD. Might turn into a FG battle.

Bama loses a star WR only to have their 3rd stringer make a huge play.

They both hit big pass plays. Someone will break one at some point. Probably from outside the red zone. These defenses are too good once the field gets compressed.

Bennett does appear slightly hyper and a little out of control so far.
I watched him against Clemson, FL and Bama last time they played…he is cray cray 😜

Great experience for him for next year though…he will come back little more polished and reserved.

Franklin-like clock management from bama.

Jimbo crucified Saban for it as politely as he could on the film room telecast.

His staff wasn't as keen on it.

Saban is at his best when he's aggressive. That wasn't aggressive when they could have been. The likelihood of Bennett running the 80 second offense is minimal against this defense. Force him into a mistake.

Kirby is happy to go in down 3. It might be top 100 city in the WR room, but you like your chances vs #84, #7, and Bolden much better than Williams and Metchie with Bolden.

Georgia is going to need their run game to get going somehow.

UGA just doesn't have the game breaker at RB they usually have. No Chubb. No Michel. No Swift.

They have good to great backs, but there is a reason they rotate 4 vs riding one.

Bama is also stopping the run with 5-6 regardless of how UGA lines up. Bennett is known for play action and Bama isn't respecting it.

Does Kirby slip Daniels in there for better down field passing?

It wouldn't shock me to see Daniels for a series or so. Maybe he hits a big play.

looking at all the injuries on Bama side, this is UGA game to lose. UGA lots of penalties, but played Bama good in red zone. Bama is very vulnerable in this game vs when these teams played in Dec.
