From the outside he seems like a single minded kind of competitor. We'll see but I don't think he'll have that problem.

To be fair, Smitty wasn’t the WR1 the first few games , Waddle was.
I don’t know him, just see what I see. Been too many exceptional ball players who can’t handle the success and fame and money.
I think that could be Courtney Morgan in the red Alabama polo standing next to him. Not sure though.
I know we gave up yardage, but A really cool thing, we had 3 true freshmen on the field in the defensive backfield a lot in the second half. Mbakwe, Morgan and of course Brown.
Yep, that was a coaching issue. I understand not getting down to 2-3 seconds every play so the defense doesn’t jump the snap, but at least get it below 10 seconds the entire second half. We could’ve milked at least 3-4 minutes off the clock by doing that one thing.
Heck of a game.
Few things I've noticed from last night game but I'll try not to repeat same thing that most of us are saying.
First half v.s. Second half offense: day and night. We were super aggressive and we had them where we wanted them. I don't understand why we went with conservative playcalling in second half. You can't do that against teams like Georgia. I hope Deober and OC learned their lesson.
They definitely opened up the playbook and I think going forward, we will be okay.
Ryan Williams is unreal!
Jalen Milroe: say what you want but he's a QB and after last night, he's definitely gonna be top three NFL QB prospect. He's continuing to show everyone he's improving and getting better each week. He's not the same quarterback he was last year. Immediate throws were there last night.
Use of the running backs: I wouldn't worry about them. Take what defense gives to you and go with it. I expect us to run a lot next week.
Defense. They were aggressive I'm first half and I think they just tired in 2nd half because offense didn't help with conservative playcalling. One thing I'll say this: we shouldn't be this tired with the depth we have. That's something to monitor going forward.
They targeted Brown ten times!!!! He will be a better player at the end of the year. Just be patience with him. You can tell he finally learned by turning and grabbed interception at the end of the game.
I see issues with DL and it'll be a continued problems throughout the season. It is what it is at this point but we can manage it.
This game should've been 50-20.... But hey take the W.

That's something he'll learn from this. Keep foot on pedal going forward until he's sure the game is over which is in late third quarter, not at the beginning of third quarter.
Another thing to remember. Georgia converted five 4th down situation. That's unheard of .. stop them half of the time and we wouldn't be in this situation we were last night.
A meteor comes to mind.
Barring that, I go UGA bc eff Texas and Red is better than orange
On that drive UGA went for it on 4th down 3 different times. At their 29 yard line, at their 37 yard line, and at their 46 yard line. All 3 plays resulted in a 1st down.
High risk, high reward.
If Bama stops them even once or twice out of the 7 times UGA went for it on 4th down, the game isn’t very close. 5 times UGA converted. Twice Bama penalties lead to first downs. Pretty lucky. Desperate times call for desperate measures.
As I said above, they were effectively 7/7 on 4th down. Unreal.
Great job guys!!!
I’m just happy Georgia tried to make it close after it looked like y’all were gonna walk away with it!

And yet we got to him 3 times for losses.
We pressured him the first half, we backed off in the second half inviting them to run the ball and run short routes to condense the clock.
It would have worked too except the offense went too conservative too early. Watching in real time, we went completely away from presnap motions and alignment shifts on offense and went with the 3 verts and a crosser that has been the essence of our boom/bust offense to this point in the year.
Honestly think that kdb and staff know that this may not be the only time we play UGA this year and put a lot of stuff back in the bag for the second half.
The mistake was thinking you can do that with an honest to God championship caliber team. And the stuff we went to in the second half reminded me a lot of what we have put on tape this year up to this game.
We shook em, got conservative and played into the strengths and prep of their defense
Nope thats auburn.
Some Georgia fans expected us to run all over them. I expected Haynes and Miller to get more work myself.
His down field blocking alone is legendary
I think we had plans for him this game. Sucks he went out and on one of those stupid trick plays at that.
Truly worthy of wearing 2 at bama.
