I mean they are in the east? Maybe they are overrated. Which would mean so is the barn. That was their only good win. Thoughts?

They're a good team but not a great team. Their QB is nothing spectacular. I think we would beat them without a problem in the SECCG. Our guys know the pressure of playing in a championship game but their guys don't. I think that would show in such a game. I do think Georgia is capable of beating Auburn in a rematch though. I know that may sound crazy to some but if Auburn finds a way to beat us I think they would be emotionally drained and probably banged up physically for the SECCG. Auburn has not beaten a quality opponent away from Jordan-Hare and Georgia would have a lot of fans at the game. Georgia wasn't just beaten by Auburn, they were embarrassed so I'm sure Georgia's motivation would be high. If Georgia ends up in the playoffs I'm not sure they could compete with the other three teams. They could not outscore Oklahoma and any other playoff team would probably shut down Georgia's running game.

I think they are a good team, not great. I don't think they've played many teams who are balanced on both sides of the ball. Fromm is decent but I think he's been masked a little this year by their D and their running backs. I'm not taking them lightly but I think we face a much stiffer competition in Auburn than Georgia. Just my two cents

They have elite talent but they're one dimensional. Against a top tier defense they're exposed because they don't have the QB play to win a National Title. Top ten? Yes, I think so. But any team with a great defense will force them to throw the ball and I'm not sure they can do that.

Georgia is a very good team, not great, but very good and capable of beating anyone if the ball bounces the right way. Their oline is good at run blocking but suspect at best with pass protection and their backs are legit. The defense is sound.

The Auburn game was ugly and I think they let it get out of control when things started going south for them. I chalk that up to inexperience of those types of games. Make no mistake, they would be a tough out in the seccg. The problem for them is that they may have peaked too early in the season.

I"m certainly no Georgia apologist, but they have 3 wins over teams currently in the top 25, two of which were rather convincing. Again, the Auburn game was ugly, but to think they aren't a very good team given their body of work this season I believe is incorrect.
