Talk about a team that was just happy to win the first half!

You obviously have no idea how difficult a task it is to go to the home stadium of the #1 team in the nation. Georgia was favored by 27 and our team played their guts out.
This.
There's something to be said about being happy they didn't do it in the first half as well.
Georgia is the best team in the country for a reason. They made great adjustments and we’d were over matched. Had little to do with “desire”. Had a lot more to do with just being overmatched and playing a team that is very well coached.
Finally a rational post. When you can put 19 players in the game on defense and not lose a step....wow.....that is depth. Definitely don't think we were outcoached and you are right it had nothing to do with desire......they simply can run players in and out of the game and wore us down.

Our defense on the opening second half drive was a disappointment and we did not appear to be dedicated to making a statement coming out of the locker room. Stopping them and extending our lead would have made a statement.
I will tell you where you’re wrong. See that 3rd and 2 late in the 4th when everyone knew the game was over. The boys could have given in but they stuffed that run. That’s not a team that quit. That’s a team that got beat by a better team and that’s all. Second, the offense stalled every time because of 1 bad negative play. They were still fighting, just made dumb mental mistakes. Your take is terrible. Just because a team got outplayed significantly doesn’t mean they gave in. Get out of here with that crap.
They did exactly what UND did to us and Clemson last year....used their big *** and deep OL to knock us out. We don't have the depth on the DL yet to keep players fresh and able to handle that.
I just don't think that was it. We made no adjustments defensively. They want to get off the field but play way off the receivers on 3rd down and give up easy receptions for easy 1st downs. They are so worried about being beat deep that they would rather have death by a thousand cuts! Meanwhile exhausting an already thin defense! This is not a recipe for success. I do think the defense played hard and never gave up, but they just weren't put in position to succeed.
Yep. Just got whipped by superior LOS play. We didn’t turn it over.
You’re not going to beat a team like Georgia unless they help you a bit.Carolina needed to be plus 2 and not minus 2 in TO to win the game.Talent gap just too great.
Can you imagine if Rattler played for Georgia? Heisman.
This could be debated. One could argue UGA slept through the first half. They seemed very flat.
Much easier to make a statement when you have the superior talent. The DL overall competed way better than they did in the first 2 games.
They made adjustments to what UGA was doing in the first half. UGA changed and went more to the power running game in the second half....and we don't have the depth on the DL to handle that.
You have no chance against UGA if you give up explosive plays.
You just described us getting outcoached, yet your original post implies our team gave up. Again, get out of here with that crap.
Nobody said they gave up....I said they were happy with their 1st half accomplishment and did not come out of the locker room with that same fire! So no, I will not get out of here with that crap!
I semi agree but the defense was in good shape many times and gave up way to easy 1st downs on alignment issues.
What chance do you have getting the ball run down your throat and exhausting your defense. When you are the underdog you have to take chances to win and we just didn't.
That is just what you want to hear so you can fight... just stop already! If you don't like the thread GTFO of it!
We needed to take chances to win and we did not. We had nothing to lose. I blame OC for this.
Yea well apparently that’s just what I and about 5 other people read who responded. But yea I’m the one who’s wrong.
That DL played a lot of snaps in the second half......too many and we don't have enough to substitute the way we need to. Absent Bama, I don't think there is a bigger more talented OL than UGAs. We didn't play perfectly, but we played well.
What did you want them to do about that? That's just size on size and one side could substitute if they needed to. That is simply being outtalented, period.
We do not have two starting receivers. One of them All SEC and the other was showing signs of being a third weapon. That concerns me the most. We have to be able to throw and Juice. X, and Brown are hard to handle
They would have definitely helped, no doubt. They easily could have kept drives alive with their ability to get open and create yards after the catch.
Don’t think we got out coaches or gave in. Georgia has superior athletes at most positions. A lot of their second group is better than our first group. Heck, their coach even said that they have 19 starters on D for 11 spots. We aren’t close to that and as the game progressed, it showed. We got beaten by a team that is superior in most positions.
I will say that I am a Beamer guy, but I didn’t like the comment at the half. Your team did play well in the first half. You also have to know that the first mistake you make may create a snowball you can’t control. Don’t have enough horses in the starting group and certainly not the backup group.

Dude, play semantics all you want. It boils down to the fact that you questioned the fight of the players which questions their character. Anyone who watched the game knows that wasn’t the problem. So I’ll ask one more time politely sir, get out of here with that crap.
You are your 5 can shut up and leave. If you don't like what us being discussed you don't get to shut it down! You have got to be a Democrat! Shut all speech down that I don't like or agree with! Get a life!Yea well apparently that’s just what I and about 5 other people read who responded. But yea I’m the one who’s wrong.
I agree with you...can't just invent size but I am more frustrated with the DB play. Not the DB themselves because I think they did exactly what they were told to do. I feel they needed to be put in one on one positions on 3rd down to try and stop those easy throws. Could it have resulted in being beat deep? Sure but when you are the underdog you have to take chances. I think the whole D played hard.
Both sides of the aisle do that.....neither have "free speech" bragging rights.....and haven't for a while.
Careful….we both know the mods are the real democrats trying to shut down any speech about politics. I kid mods. I appreciate the work you do. This @uscjunkie guy though….I think y’all better check on him before he has aneurysm.
