Alabama took a big step backward in ‘21. They took a second step backward in ‘22. And, while they have plenty of great recruits, if you take a look at their depth chart and what they will lose it is hard to believe they might not take a third consecutive step backward in ‘23. Coaching staff changes have taken a toll. Much like Clemson, they are trending down. Admittedly they are moving from the dominant, premier program to a very good program. But, if you look at their depth chart next to Georgia’s, the Dawgs are most likely to be as good or better next season.
Georgia’s schedule is a joke next year - Tennessee in Game 11 is their biggest challenge. Ole Miss in Week 10 is their second toughest game. I sincerely believe we will be one of their tougher games - for I believe we will be better than UT-Martin, Ball State, UAB, Auburn, Kentucky, Vandy, Missouri, and possibly USC-E and the Gators next year.
Our best hope is that LSU, USC, or Ohio State can be strong enough to beat them next year.
