Heck with SC, we got to Play Austin Peay first, and I am worried about them.

We should beat them, but to write them off would be foolish. Muschamp is doing surprisingly well recruiting but you don't hear about it because he's not Clemson, Uga, or Bama. Depth issues usually start becoming a problem around week 6 or 7. Of all the games on our schedule this one gets the most concern from me imo.

I’m looking ahead or around but depth issues get you in the 3rd and 4th quarter first. Here’s a look at what his classes look like since arriving at Cakalacky...

Just remember this ain’t Richt UGA football. I’m not declaring victory but I’m not in the least worried about that game. Muschamp has yet to prove he’s a great HC. It’s a road game in a tough environment it won’t be easy but we should win. His classes aren’t even in the top 5 of the SEC.

USC is not being coached by Spurrier. I have ZERO fear of losing to the chickens. And it's in Athens. Dawgs roll the gamecocks!

And there's not a single Gamecock in this forum that is willing to do an Avatar bet on this game cause they know, they suck!

For the gamecocks that recruiting is not bad at all. They might not be getting all the 5 stars, but getting a bunch of 4 stars isn't bad. I'm agreeing with it should be a win but it won't be easy. It's a more important game than fans realize.

they getting a bunch of 4 stars cause UGA is getting all the 5 stars, 4 stars are just the Dawgs rejects:p!!!! Ill confidently walk out on that limb and predict UGA wins by 17+ in chicken town.

You Dawgies will learn soon enough that there doesn't necessarily have to be just 1 number one back. Or just 1 number one of any position. When you have depth players of equal talent can be rotated in and out, or started in alternating games ect.

It really isn't important what number Holyfields starting number/position is. What is important is his numbers on the field.

My point is over the last 3 years he’s still below average in his own conference. That’s exactly where they’ve always been. Spurrier was a heck of a coach and Muschamp hasn’t done crap in 6 years of trying. He couldn’t do it at UF and that place is a lot easier to recruit than his current job. Don’t be fooled by his class having a few 4 stars look at the depth at each position. He’s in trouble for a couple more years or longer if he can’t recruit even better than he has. Kirby will be his daddy in recruiting and winning.

If only Roquan Smith had one more year of eligibility.:bounce:

He had a year of eligibility left. That being said, his agent's next move may be to ask for Roquan to be reinstated. The way the NCAA has been granting waivers, who knows how it would turn out. Surely Kirby can roll another seven.....or has a copy of the picture he is using to blackmail the NCAA.

It may just bluff the Bears into stepping up and paying Roquan.

Oh I agree 100%, Kirby should own him, I'm just saying that game worries me more than LSU and possibly Auburn. Our line alone should be able to own anyone in the sec

Got to agree with that. certainly was not a #1 rb last year.

For what it's worth, I've been saying I felt Holyfield would have a breakout year for months. Dude showed flashes of what he can do last year. I think he feels he has something to prove and ready to prove it. I'm pumped to see what he can do. If he is able to perform as I expect, we may not have to burn a year of eligibility on one or more of our other backs. Man, we have so many horses to put on the field, it seems unfair! Gitty up, boys! :LOL:

Are any Dawg fans concerned about a bad playoff performance after playing such a weak regular season schedule?

....kind of like the Seminoles I root for playing Samford. It’s a shame. Great for the kids I guess to say they played the Noles, and the money the game provides, but a shame for competitive football.

To go to a true bracketed playoff system all out of conference games and gimme money games to smaller colleges would need to be cut out. I am all for conference division play only for a shorter regular season, then a conference championship and brackets from there on out. But then, that would rob a ton of $$$$ out of the NCAA's pocket so they are never going to let that happen.

I get the money games for smaller colleges. It is the only way they can grow their programs. Citadel got around $500k for playing Clemson last year. This year they will play Bama and there is no telling how much they'll make off of that game. Those are huge figures to programs such as theirs and go a long way in helping fund their programs.

Sort of like when Tennessee plays a big team, it helps them foot the food bill for Phat Phil Phulmer. ::ke:

That’s kind of embarrassing. They should’ve at least made it a Tulane or someone like Middle Tennessee. Austin Peay!?!?...

What you say is probably true, but I still worry about them.
