I'm gonna go ahead and get the ugly out of the way. Georgie has a really good D, full of future NFLers. Fast is an understatement. #2 looks like he has another gear compared to our guys. It pains me to compliment them even backhandedly but iiwii.
I dreaded going to this game. Dwag fans are scum. Only the early start saved it from being truly awful in the stands. I wasnt alone. GT fans don't show up. At what point do we admit GT fans are unwilling to make this a home game? The heathens come in and literally drive us out by making Bobby Dodd unliveable. We should have moved this game to the Dome. We could have bought a lot of helicopter rides and support staff with the millions we could have made.
Obviously Bobby Dodd is a sacred place, but I believe we need to claim the Dome as ours as well. We own the 404 and that includes the literally walkable from campus center of the college football universe. I simply cant respect the "dont move the Georgie home game" when it is barely a home game now.
(Yeah, yeah, lets keep doing the same thing and expecting different results)
Anyway, more important, college football is a special game. A combination of talent, emotion, and "chess". Briefly, before we put the season to bed, I want to note how this team really excelled at the emotional aspect. However, the recruiting rankings said we had a talent disparity and they were absolutely correct. Its a huge gap. Iiwii.
Step 1 though is the emotion, and this staff has it. Step 2 is closing the talent gap and that will take time. Signing day matters. We need the commits. And a great class in 2021 as well.
What frustrates me is idiots jumping straight on Step 3, the chess aspect. As if there is any way to tell what kind of chess players we have when they basically have the king and 15 pawns to work with. We all agree that the jury is still completely out on if they can coach or not. However, right now Lombardi himself aint pulling out wins over Clemson or Georgie without better talent, and this staff in one year has us on the cusp of a historic class. If they actually build on that, lookout. Because the ACC Coastal is goal 1, and its absolutely a reasonable goal if we close out with a little more help on the DL.
Optimism is the only way to be people. Pessimism sucks. Lets close the talent gap and see where that takes us.
