- Can the defense stand up to the big play threat? I'd say we did ok here. We held them ~100 yards below their rushing average and well under their total yards per game average. They only got off one long pass play and 7 or so runs of longer than 8 yards. We held them to 4.6 yp rush, over a yard per rush below their season average.
- Passing Play competence? 19-29-1 vs 6-17-2; 252 vs 112; 4 tds vs 0 tds. We only got smoked on one pass play. Murray could have been 24-29. 9 Bulldogs caught a pass in the game. This was a resounding yes.
- How much are we looking ahead to the Dome? I admit I bought into the drivel being spouted at ESPN, CBS Sports, CFN, AJC, Fox Sports, SI and the troll that kept emailing me. I was worried we'd be focused elsewhere. I was so wrong.
I think this win is so much sweeter because a loss might have taken away all the good juju we've gained from the win streak. Lose to Tech this year and the whole 'Georgia is a product of the schedule' meme continues. I am much happier with the 'Tech must be mediocre because they lost to Georgia' meme.
TD
