Our defense

  • cpavol said...

    I think UGA's first year struggles with the 3-4 are a little overrated. Sure they were 5th in the nation last year and 30th or so their first year, but the schedule had a great deal to do with that. Cam Newton ran up and down the field on them the first year and they played a very weak schedule last year. I think most of their imporvement was illusory.

    Illusory...I like that word...it is very illustrative. Seriously I do like it.thumbsup

    After consulting with Mr. Webster, I've decided that I like that word,too.

  • I think our offense is going to be so much better that we won't have to worry about our defense as much. Longer possessions and better field position after punts makes a defense look so much better. Not to mention far more points on the board.

    I agree with Watauga and others who have said we will give up a few more long plays this year. But I think added aggressiveness will more than make up for it with more sacks, turnovers and game changing plays. In short: don't worry, be happy. IMO, we'll do just fine.
