Title: Stopping Georgia's Offense
Post by: Townhallsavoy on November 12, 2010, 02:05:23 PM

What's more important - stopping AJ Green or stopping the Georgia running game?

Stopping AJ will be most difficult for us no doubt.

Fairley will help in a round about way.

Well I think if we can shut down the running game, it will help against AJ Green and the rest of the passing game. 

While it may seem more obvious to focus on Green, I think forcing them to pass in difficult situations is the best strategy.

The DB's will have a hard task at hand, even more so because I'm sure Thorpe will be covering AJ. So, with that said, I am hoping to see Murray on his back a lot.

I really think this is going to be one hell of a frustrating and balanced attack.  They're playing good in all phases of their offense and our D has been known to...well...suck.
