Title: Why does it look so ugly?
Post by: JR4AU on November 14, 2010, 12:56:49 PM

UGA: Rushing: 24 att. for 81 yds, 3.4 per carry, 1TD

Passing: 15 of 28, 53%, 273 yds, 3 TDs.

354 yds total offense.

Absolutely nothing stellar about those offensive stats.  Not bad passing, but not great completion percentage.  Problem is it's a big play when they do complete one....but while this defense looks bad doing it, they seem to be getting the job done when they have to.

I noticed that too.

Our defense seems to struggle in spurts.

I know after Georgia's first 14 plays, they had 21 points.  It's those kind of spurts that can really hurt a football team's chances of winning.

I think at one point in the Arkansas game, Arkansas had 3 TDs in 5 plays or something ridiculous like that.

Seems to me we have gotten better than average at adjusting at halftime.

Really only had one bad quarter. Had a rash of penalties that added to the opening misery.  I can't get over the continuous wide-open space down the middle for such a receiver like Greene. The D really started hurrying Murray after the opening quarter, especially Bates. Early in the season we couldn't find the ball but least that has subsided.
