Not a lot to complain about but also not a lot to be excited about…sounds like 8-4 to me!

What are you not excited about? Didn't get a chance to catch the game tonight

Probably the way a G5 team put up 170 rushing yards in 2 quarters and 5 seconds.

I would still be excited about our two transfer WRs, Reed’s upside, and our junior TE (Theo). This defense also has all of the pieces needed to be a top 15 unit.

Oh there’s a lot to be excited about. Feels like we hit the transfer portal jackpot. Craver and Concepcion were amazing. Niblack and Boerkircher also look dangerous for those underneath throws. 

Also defense showed some positive signs. Ratcliffe especially felt like he’d made some big strides this offseason.

Defense looked the same as last year for the first half. Just missing tackle after tackle. They tightened up after the 75 yarder but I think that’s just a talent and depth difference.

I definitely agree. I loved what I saw from our pass defense. I have really high hopes for our CB room mainly due to our starting trio of cornerbacks. Will Lee and Tyreek Chappell have been a mainstay for a while and are entering their final season at A&M. The new addition in Julian “Julio” Humphrey is also a great one, mainly based on what I saw from him as a fan of UGA.
