| GAME THREAD UGA vs Alabama: Bama downs Georgia 41-24

My wife was just echoing you.

No but they've been beaten whoever is on the schedule handily. They haven't given a reason to be unseated. CFP poll is all that matters anyway.

She’s a smart lady.

While I agree with the assertion that they haven't played anyone like UGA, I couldn't see this UGA team beating Lawrence & Etienne... They're D is stout and legitimately impressive but 2020 is highlighted by stud QB's. That dude ain't beating Clemson.

Agreed, Georgia can’t hang with Clemson this season.

What was Bama’s time of possession in the second half?

Well Kirby has stolen our recruiting roster, our fitness coach and finally went too far. He stole our field goal kicking game

What was Bama’s time of possession in the second half?

For the second half as a whole, I am not sure. They kept the ball 11+ minutes of the fourth quarter.

You aren't beating Alabama with a walkon quarterback

It wasn't the "walk-on" bit that kept hitting me about Stetson before this game. It was a mixture of history and knowing what's been going on in Athens as well as that QB room.

I'm having a hard time separating Lambert and Stetson going into tonight's game.

On page one I mentioned Greyson Lambert. Friday, Friday night, and after watching the previews early yesterday I just couldn't get him out of my head. Everything I was hearing and seeing mirrored 2015. The end result did as well.

May to a stats dive thread on this game later, but...

2nd half TOP
UGA- 12:12
UA- 17:48

4th Q TOP
UGA- 3:39
UA- 11:21

I noticed their kickoff kicker looked like he kicked one through the uprights. Looks like that would be some kind of record

My big "worry" all along was how poorly our D had played especially in the OM game. As I was watching the game it became evident that our strategy needed to be stop the run and make the QB beat us. I had seen enough even in the first half to feel good about that strategy. I would be VERY surprised if we see Stetson as the starting QB the next time we see UGA. Of course this assumes we take care of our business which in 2020 is not a guarantee with all the crazy stuff that can happen.

If #44 played like he looks then he would be great addition to this defense

When the 4th started! And it took Bama over five minutes, I knew Bama had this game!

Seems like UGA scoring and leaving 23 seconds before half and Bama able to march down the field and get a FG was a big deal. Then taking the lead in the 2nd half with the 90 yard TD followed by the interception when it looked like UGA might score. Those three things really swung the momentum for the good guys. The D then played better 2nd half and got some turnovers. Hope they can build on that 2nd half this week against the Viles.
