UGA fan here , you do great work and even when I don't completely agree with everything your saying I respect what you are saying ! Enjoy this SAT evening , I will be beside myself just like every UGA and Bama fan.
Lol enjoying* it don't matter which side of the fan page you're on, this one is always a nail bitter. Bama fans can say they dint sweat it but I promise they do. Most games vs uga aren't blow outs. Most come down to one single play, drive, turnover or score.
As a die hard Dawgs fan I will have tums, rolaids, and pepto bismol close by. I have needed it every time we’ve faced Bama since forever I feel like. I know it will be a good game and I will enjoy it no matter what, but even with an expanded playoff I really, really would love to have this win. All due respect for Alabama and all that they have accomplished .
I am a lifelong UGA fan, my wife is a lifelong Bama fan, we will not be watching this game together. I hope we win, but UGA isn't the same team it was last year. Beck isn't the same. So I remain optimistic, but if we lose it wont be a huge shocker. On the other hand for the last several years we have been tight with UK every time we face them.
One would be a fool to expect Georgia to play anything like they did at UK. They will play great, both teams will show their full deck. Will be an absolute war
Bama players should watch this podcast because it sounds like a Georgia pep talk rally by Josh.Players, after watching the podcast, remember the word LANK as motivation. Roll Tide.
Really? It sounded to me, a Georgia fan, like he was doing the opposite, saying how complete Bama looked and how incomplete Georgia looked. Perception's a funny thing.
Sounded absolutely like a pep talk to Georgia and motivational board material. That said, leave the LANK in the past. Lank is a problem, not a benefit. It's an excuse. Take ownership if you play bad. Don't say LANK this, LANK that. If you play well, then receive the rewards and accolades. I bet the offensive line when they were getting run over a couple of games ago, they were crying LANK, LANK, LANK.
We aren’t traditional rivals. This is just the third “on schedule” in 16 years. Never played consistently for some reason. Hope new schedule increases natural matchups.
You may want to think about what Chris@SECUnfiltered pointed out in his podcast today. Since 2021, when Kirby has had more than a week to get his team ready for their opponent, Georgia is 11-0, and 8 of those games were decided by 22 points or more. I would add that during that same span, they have also won 42 straight regular season games having run the table the past 3 years in what is undoubtedly the best conference in the league. They also haven't forgotten how last season ended and know this is their chance to show who really rules college football and is the next sports dynasty!!!
Nah…there may be lots of folks unable to watch the game with power out. I’ve been waiting weeks for this game and may not be able to watch it if my power is out.
I worry about the home run nature of our (Bama's) offense. UGA is not gonna just let us pop 10 explosive plays, so we will have to matriculate it down the field to win. Can we do that? BTW, There is a reason we've had two of the top 3 coaches of all time with 12 Natties combined under both.
I wouldn’t be so sure about that.. bama has hit explosive plays against UGA all the time. 2012 sec champ game deep pass to cooper, 2015 at Athens deep pass to Ridley, 2018 natty game. 2&26, 2020 waddle and Smitty and Metchie all had explosive catches, 2021 Sec champ game Jameson & Metchie were having a field day… all those UGA defenses were way better than what they have now. So it’s very possible bama will hit explosive plays, maybe not 10, maybe more than 10.. we shall see.
@@coltonhorstman7637 I watch them play a couple of times this year and it’s not the same defense of old just like we’re not the same Alabama defense of old but our offense may be better than the last year and yall offense is pretty ass 😂
Georgia can’t lose to Alabama because they still have to play Tennessee, ole miss and Texas those teams can do what Alabama does offensively and defensively. RTR
Bama fan here, The key for this game and its maybe not what most would think but it's the georgia d-line. Georgia's d-line has been very weak for the past two seasons and you saw it in the sec championship last year and against Kentucky a week ago. But even if Bama takes advantage of that Georgia will not go out with out a fight and for that I'll say 28-24 Bama with maybe 2 25+ yard rushing touchdowns for the tide RTR.
Weak no. But comparing any line to having both Davis, Wynn & Carter is crazy. I'll never understand this. Don't compare the freak years as a drop-off to now. Georgia still has a great dline.
Caveat is Nick Saban is still affiliated with Bama, still has an office at Bama and is getting paid half a million a year as an “advisor”…ROLL TIDE ROLL!
I think it comes down to the lines of scrimmage. We saw vs USF how big of a difference O-line play is for this Alabama team. If the line is healthy, I like Alabama's chances to win. If they have to shuffle players around, it will get ugly
I'm a Bama fan who has the same mindset. I go ahead and prepare myself for a loss, keep my mouth shut and don't do any trash talking, and am pleasantly surprised if we win. You guys will give us a good game, and I expect us to have a "quality loss." Respect. RTR.
With our weak lines (especially D-line) at this point I just don’t see us winning. But I’m still saying go dawgs! We will get better as the season progresses.
I’m just ready for the collective aneurism the rest of the college football world is going to have if Alabama beats Georgia. They have been tormented by Alabama and Nick Saban for almost 2 decades and they finally got away from the bad man and see the light at the end of the tunnel but nope here’s comes Deboer 😂😂
All the pressure is on Georgia, because Kirby can’t afford to be 1-5 against Saban and 0-1 against Deboer and still be considered the best coach post Nick saban. RTR
Kirby can afford plenty. He's got a good 15+ years of coaching to do. Besides regardless of the outcome of this season Georgia is about to have a retool year after this season is over.
@@bri0013 I have predicted Georgia to go 9-3. So if they lose to Bama then they don’t have anymore room for error. who’s to say Kirby won try his hand at the NFL?
@@brucemcgoose7609 well I did meet Kirby back in 2014. He is built by bama. I know who Kirby was when he was at bama. If things start to snowball at Georgia which could be happening now we just don’t know it. I could see Kirby bolting for the nfl. The nfl is way better job that college ball coaches get way more time off no recruiting.
@@TheRayfield77 Two separate sentences. Did you see the period? You just have to ask what if both team loses. If Bama loses, it's DeBoer's 1st season. But if Georgia loses, it's not about the coach. It's about the schools. I was also at the 2018 Natty and two of the SEC Championships.
IMO , DeBoer did great with Washington , and now he has Alabama roster to coach. So I figure he will be great there. Offense should score plenty ! And he has a similar QB now as he had at Washington. But milroe is even a better runner. So yeah bad as I hate to say it , I figure the score will be around Bama 31 Georgia 16 Hope I’m wrong
Finally Bama has to play a non cupcake game- and when was the last time Alabama had to go to Athens???? They have the advantage playing at home, but the Dawgs aint gonna be easy - Go Dawgs!
You don't want the game to be in Athens. The last two times the game was held in Athens Bama beat the breaks off Georgia😮. Remember the blackout Julio Jones first year, Remember Calvin Ridley and Derrick Henry come out party😮.
Regardless of how it works out on the stat sheet or within the rankings, I think there are occasionally games a coach/team simply has to win: could be the first game, could be the fourth game, it all depends. This is absolutely one of those games for my Dawgs. Now that Saban's gone, Kirby needs to show himself, his players and the rest of the college football landscape that they're top dawgs (pardon the pun). With this sport being the way it is now, perception of a team is more important than ever, and Kirby and co. need to prove they're as good as we all know they are. The best teams win the hardest games in the toughest environments, and this one absolutely qualifies. Make no mistake, I expect Georgia to win, but it ain't gonna be easy. After all, there's only been one Georgia coach to ever beat Bama in Tuscaloosa, and that was Mark Richt: he did it twice ('02 and '07).
AS A GA FAN it just seems right in the heavens when these two collide there gonna be a hell of a storm, didnt think it would be a hurricane but bet rest of cfb will be watching ,
I think the ideal first half stat for my Crimson Tide has to be north of 100 yards rushing with at least 70 yards by Justice and Jam!! If we can run on them and give them some problems running with a few hurries for Beck? We win, if we can’t run on them and give them issues running and throwing, gonna be a long night! ROLL TIDE!!!
My god y’all not getting anywhere close to a 100 yards in the first half lmfaoo. Maybe in the whole game sure. But you gotta be an absolute idiot to think you’re going to run up and down the best defense in college football
I feel like UGA is in the same mindset they were with Florida about 15 years ago, so it doesn't matter who coaches BAMA, they have the Dawgs number. For at least for a few more years. 31-23 BAMA.
Bama can’t score 30 on Georgia. To be fair nobody in the country can score 30 on Georgia. Think it’ll be more of a 24-17 type game. Obviously in Georgias favor
As a Dawgs fan this is a fence we just have problems climbing at the moment. Kirby just had a mental block coaching against Nick. The game he won was due to some incredible players making it happen. I see this as his chance to start leveling up against Bama. We know that Nick probably has told and discussed Kirby's tendencies and game plan to the new Coach. I think this win goes and helps Ga better than hurting Bama. Ga needs confidence that this Nemesis will not haunt them especially if we play them again. I am a Ga fan , but can see this going bad if this game goes bad. This can become two Bama bad games if we meet again later if this one goes wrong. Either way Go Dawgs.
UGA got over the UF hump but weren't happy without a dominant nemesis. Dawg fan all day but we couldn't tackle Milroe last year and couldn't tackle UK last week. More of the same this year mixed in with a Bobo offense long moments of silence and we go down pretty big this weekend. Hope I'm wrong, but a blind optimist I am not.
Georgia coming to town! I love it. Georgia can win this game, Alabama can win this game. If we play like how we did against USF, Georgia is gonna manhandle us. If we play like how we did against Wisconsin, Alabama could win this game. 3 things for Alabama to win….. 1. Milroe has to play good. He has to, 2. O-Line needs to play well to, 3. Defense need to get stops, this will be the best offense we’ve played so far. They have to play well. The Key is Milroe. Milroe has to be play his best game
As a bama fan, in my opinion i feel like it will be a tight game & whomever wins the turnover battle wins the game. So being fundamental sound means everything to both team! A early loss to either team means nothing in a 12 team playoff depending on how they finish the season. The lost really only matters to the fan base trash talk whether its the "saban is gone" or "uga cant beat bama". Both team's will still have key games to win down the road in order to keep their playoff hopes alive. In my opinion i don't think milroe gives up another big home game like last year to texas but i also understand the difficulties playing quality opponents. Lets handle business, show some southern hospitality & roll with the tide!!! RTR 🏆🐘💨
If there's one thing I've learned in the last two decades, is that Georgia can still lose to Alabama with a four touchdown lead. If my dawgs come out with this second-half bobo offense bullshit, they are absolutely going to lose.
Bama guy here. I really thought Georgia was the better team, until last week. Bama absolutely has a good chance the win. GA looked beatable. I can't wait. Just like the Clemson/Bama years, Bama/GA games are great.
Dawg fan here and while of course I want UGA to win in the grand scheme of things it probably does not matter if they lose because at the end of the season they will still be a top 12 team and make the CFP. They probably will lose twice this season. This is the first season where it does not matter what you do in October but what you do in December and January. Go Dawgs!
Josh! You of all people should know that Coach Saban never passed for 1 touchdown or made 1 tackle! As a lifelong BAMMER , who bleeds Crimson I can tell u that these defenses are both really good HOWEVER the Bama offense is loaded and explosive and Milroe is pretty comfortable in this offense and is making better decisions! Georgia poodles are going to have to score 35+ to win! I don't see georgia being able to do that, especially playing in Tuscaloosa! Georgia doesn't have elite offensive threats like they've had in past years meaning they're going to run and do alot of dinks and dunks which Bama has elite edge rushers and the best starting linebackers in the country who can run sideline to sideline! J.Campbell/D.Lawson are big, fast, athletic, intelligent and have played alot of football! If Bama gets a 10-14 point lead before halftime its over! Bama with our full compliment of O-linemen Haynes and Jam can just run the ball and melt the clock when they want. Georgia don't have the offensive fire power like other years to get in a shootout with Alabama on a Saturday night in Tuscaloosa! RTR🐘🏈🏆 Bama wins
Josh, I love ya man, BUT.... you can compare the rivalrys of TX V OK, and Ohio State V MI in the past but there is NO comparison in 2024. COME ON MAN!!!! :D
Since smart has coached ga is 1-5 against bama. DeBoer has elevated Bama’s offense so far. What has Bama’s scores been last two years against teams like usf, Wisconsin, western Kentucky lol. That’s all I got to say.
If you’re a college football fan and not just a fan of a team. An actual fan of the game, you will definitely not want to miss this matchup. I’m not a fan of either team but you can bet I’m going to be somewhere I can watch it.
Game will be great and has meaning in the very short term, but it's not impossible or hardly unlikely that they meet one or 2 more times with much more importance and this game is just another game in the long term/legacy of these teams
Michigan vs. Alabama for the National Championship. Kalen DeBoer and Alabama get a shot at redemption from last years playoff. Alex Orji vs. Jalen Milroe features two Texas-born Herculean athletes playing the QB position, in a Marvel comics level Clash of the Titans. Post-Saban. Post-Harbaugh. For all the marbles.
Just as Luge's(Maybe the most knowledgeable of all the so-called "analysts"-With no real biases ala a joelle KLACKie) feels, Ga. is going to PIN all their hopes defensively by loading up in a crowded box to stop the run. They are going to "dare" jalen and our WR's to beat them. Ga wins the game IF: *They can run the football effectively in early down situations and stay ahead of the chains. It sets up their PA game,in which Beck is so good and accurate at.RB's are good. How good? NOT as good as in the past without question. But decent enough. *They beat THE TIDE over the top 2-3 times for big plays(Arian Smith watch).Ga doesnt have the best WR room or TE room in America. There is NO question about that. But they are NOT exactly chopped liver either in Smith,Lovett,Young,Bell,Humphries,Luckie,and Delp. And they will screen a lot,also to the backs. *Their O-Line plays up,and are better than I believe they are. *They win the Turnover battle,we cant block their front(Which I seriously believe we kick their ass),we dont neutralize the speed of their LB's, they whip us on the 2nd level,and the perimeter with numbers,their backend comes up big,and Jalen pisses down his leg. THE TIDE's ballcatchers have to WIN in 1on1 matchups and 50/50 balls.. Going into this matchup,and kind of saying everyone plays up? Which of course probably wont occur. But just for shits+Giggles🤣......Lets compare rooms QB-Push....IF they both are outstanding it is going to be a helluva game... RB-Bama...I wouldnt trade Jam+JHaynes for ANYONE else's...... RB-Bama...Blocking alone gives Outzs,Dippre,Lewis,and Cuevas the sizable EDGE..... O-Line-Bama...It wont be hard to find their defenders,and IF we pound on them like we did last December?....Game,set,+Match unless we turn it over,Jalen fails the test,or we have typical,shit SEC officiating crew over-officiating the ballgame for evaluation purposes. Or are "Bought off" jason autry-like..... WR-Bama-Based off explosive,overall speed+athleticism,plus Coaches KD,NS,JS,+BE whom are superior to Bobo and his staff IMO....And hopefully sooner than later? KLaw is going to smoke somebody's backside. He is a combo of the strongest/most explosive/and fastest college football player in the land. And he has 1 stinking catch. And 2 touches. Somebody is going to pay. Interior D-Line-Bama.....THE Tim's are playing solid football,as is James Smith+DPayne...Come on BIG Jeheim!!...Your turn to eat.... Edge-Push....so many outstanding,explosive players if all are "reasonably" healthy and can play.... ILB-Push-The same....I think THE TIDE has a higher ceiling(Especially if Lawson is active,physical,and plays fast-in fact IF he does then I give the edge to Bama with Campbell+JJ also) Secondary-Push...Both are athletically and speed-wise,outstanding .....Let's see who makes MORE plays and LESS mistakes..... Special teams- Could be the difference...
I’m hosting some friends to watch the game on Saturday and I worry I’ll be a serious nervous wreck. I get nauseous when we play Kent state so Idk how I’ll manage this 😂
UGA had better get some trash cleaned up on both lines. Glad we are not #1 as long as we are in the top 12 by the end of the year. College football is a new game
Have faith brother. UK had oline problems against USC, then cleaned them up when they faced UGA. UGA had the same problems against UK, now we have 2 weeks to clean it up. Plus we should get a lot of guys back from the injured list. I have a feeling you're gonna have a good time Sat night. 😉
Don't even need that Tuesday's show to know who Josh is picking. He is picking 'bama. He will praise UGA to high heavens, but he is not picking UGA in any game he can reasonably pick against them.
@@AceWillliams no, he is gonna pick them cause he does not want to be seen as a homer. He will pick Texas, Ole Miss, and Tennessee as well. He is a UGA hater when it comes to actually picking the games.
The Saban legacy wins Saturday no matter who wins the game. This scenario is all new for Georgia. It's tough to maintain a high standard over multiple seasons with staff changes, player challenges and all the voices in your collective heads! In a way, both teams are the underdog. ROLL TIDE
I'm of the mindset that Georgia will win. Just remember, a win or loss isn't the end of the world for either team. They can still meet each other in the playoffs or for the Chip. Just like the year LSU beat Bama and then Bama played LSU for the natty and won.
According to the models I've seen, the hurricane should be past Tuscaloosa by Saturday, so even though the field will be wet, the chance of rain is low. Hopefully, we don't have a mud bowl, and we can see these teams really lay it all out on the field
I just hope Kirby doesn’t put two spy’s on Milroe like last year. Last year was essentially 9 vs 11 bc two LBs literally just stood still watching the QB most of the game.
What annoys me as a bama fan if we win they will still say Georgia is favored to win the sec and the natty they no matter what these days still say they are the better program and I have no idea why
Just because we lost Coach Saban that doesn’t mean we will lose the game this Saturday. People are crazy to not put respect under Coach Deboer’s coaching skills..he is the best coach right now because he had to rebuild a ship that was sinking that everyone was jumping out of. And if he beats Georgia, just wow 🤩 and RTR!!
UGA can’t make too much of this game win or lose not with the remaining schedule (Texas, Tenn, Ole Miss). Kirby will have them physically ready to play but the players have to get that mental toughness to get over the bama hump!
The true Alabama ?! So we never won an SEC championship or National Championship before Coach Saban arrived ?! Is that what you’re implying ? I sure hope not considering there were 20 SEC titles and 11 National Championships in Tuscaloosa prior to the arrival of Coach Saban lol 😝 RTR
@@skipgumphrey9579 yeah Like Harvard dominating the 30s… Alabama has been good multiple times but not since the 70s… the Shula years were more often than not.
No i know about bear Bryant and most the halfway coaches lol I remember how bad or in consistent bama was before saban personally don’t care for Bama but Saban knows how to win I give him that much
2 people get exposed this weekend. Either UGA or Bama , and Josh Pate after claiming these are the best 2 teams in the conference with the best atmosphere. I said what I said.

Bama fan here, The key for this game and its maybe not what most would think but it's the georgia d-line.

But even if Bama takes advantage of that Georgia will not go out with out a fight and for that I'll say 28-24 Bama with maybe 2 25+ yard rushing touchdowns for the tide RTR.
As far as I know they have a lot of injuries on their D-line so depth is a concern. Might work in our favor as the game goes on.
"very weak" might be a stretch. But you're right in that the UGA D line will be a major key to the game.
Weak no. But comparing any line to having both Davis, Wynn & Carter is crazy. I'll never understand this. Don't compare the freak years as a drop-off to now. Georgia still has a great dline.
@@JustN0pe3 Oh yeah. The D line in 21 and 22 was GOAT.

I think it comes down to the lines of scrimmage. We saw vs USF how big of a difference O-line play is for this Alabama team. If the line is healthy, I like Alabama's chances to win. If they have to shuffle players around, it will get ugly
As a Georgia fan I expect a loss. Never underestimate bama. But if we win, it will feel all that much sweeter.
Same here unfortunately

All the pressure is on Georgia, because Kirby can’t afford to be 1-5 against Saban and 0-1 against Deboer and still be considered the best coach post Nick saban. RTR
Kirby can afford plenty. He's got a good 15+ years of coaching to do. Besides regardless of the outcome of this season Georgia is about to have a retool year after this season is over.
@@bri0013He really don’t. Don’t mean saban did, he will. He already feeling a burn out. Now with expansion, we will feel it more
@@bri0013 I have predicted Georgia to go 9-3. So if they lose to Bama then they don’t have anymore room for error. who’s to say Kirby won try his hand at the NFL?
@@darnellrtr252You definitely don’t understand Kirby Smart if you think he goes to the NFL
@@brucemcgoose7609 well I did meet Kirby back in 2014. He is built by bama. I know who Kirby was when he was at bama. If things start to snowball at Georgia which could be happening now we just don’t know it. I could see Kirby bolting for the nfl. The nfl is way better job that college ball coaches get way more time off no recruiting.
I was at the Black Out Game. Pressure is all on Georgia.
You were at a game 16 years ago... so that means all the pressure is on Georgia? Mmmkay
@TheRayfield77 what about 2015. Derrick Henry and Calvin Ridley went bananas on the dawgs😂
@@TheRayfield77 Two separate sentences. Did you see the period? You just have to ask what if both team loses. If Bama loses, it's DeBoer's 1st season. But if Georgia loses, it's not about the coach. It's about the schools. I was also at the 2018 Natty and two of the SEC Championships.
IMO , DeBoer did great with Washington , and now he has Alabama roster to coach. So I figure he will be great there. Offense should score plenty !
And he has a similar QB now as he had at Washington. But milroe is even a better runner.
So yeah bad as I hate to say it , I figure the score will be around
Bama 31
Georgia 16
Hope I’m wrong
Uga fan; no expectations really at this stage as injured as we are rn. Need to peak at the end of the year and get healthy.
If Bama can run for over 100 we win because we can get some big plays on that secondary.
We have to be physical in the front.
Can't wait!!
Uga has the best secondary in college football. What big plays? Milroe running and maybe 1 deep pass is hit all game
You're gonna get your big plays on the best secondary in CFB, bar none? Well if you can do that, an undefeated season awaits. Good luck.
@@Digitalsapien they've done it before. They haven't played against receivers like them yet.
Never a blowout?? Bama has whooped their ass multiple times by almost 3 TD’s. Not saying that happens this weekend, but it has happened.
Finally Bama has to play a non cupcake game- and when was the last time Alabama had to go to Athens???? They have the advantage playing at home, but the Dawgs aint gonna be easy - Go Dawgs!
You don't want the game to be in Athens. The last two times the game was held in Athens Bama beat the breaks off Georgia😮. Remember the blackout Julio Jones first year, Remember Calvin Ridley and Derrick Henry come out party😮.
Agreed!!! I hope the weather is not a factor!!!
Regardless of how it works out on the stat sheet or within the rankings, I think there are occasionally games a coach/team simply has to win: could be the first game, could be the fourth game, it all depends. This is absolutely one of those games for my Dawgs.
Now that Saban's gone, Kirby needs to show himself, his players and the rest of the college football landscape that they're top dawgs (pardon the pun). With this sport being the way it is now, perception of a team is more important than ever, and Kirby and co. need to prove they're as good as we all know they are. The best teams win the hardest games in the toughest environments, and this one absolutely qualifies.
Make no mistake, I expect Georgia to win, but it ain't gonna be easy. After all, there's only been one Georgia coach to ever beat Bama in Tuscaloosa, and that was Mark Richt: he did it twice ('02 and '07).
AS A GA FAN it just seems right in the heavens when these two collide there gonna be a hell of a storm, didnt think it would be a hurricane but bet rest of cfb will be watching ,
I take nothing away from Bama even with a new staff.
I think the ideal first half stat for my Crimson Tide has to be north of 100 yards rushing with at least 70 yards by Justice and Jam!! If we can run on them and give them some problems running with a few hurries for Beck? We win, if we can’t run on them and give them issues running and throwing, gonna be a long night! ROLL TIDE!!!
My god y’all not getting anywhere close to a 100 yards in the first half lmfaoo. Maybe in the whole game sure. But you gotta be an absolute idiot to think you’re going to run up and down the best defense in college football
Let’s just hope the referees don’t decide the outcome of this game.
Amen. I don't want to see a flag after every play. Let them play.
This will be real SEC championship football!
You nailed it with the psychological part. It's time to win for UGA.
I remember the last time it rained hard during this game… Roll Tide
Weather is really going to impact this game.
I feel like UGA is in the same mindset they were with Florida about 15 years ago, so it doesn't matter who coaches BAMA, they have the Dawgs number. For at least for a few more years. 31-23 BAMA.
It stupid AF for this comment you make zero sense
Bama can’t score 30 on Georgia. To be fair nobody in the country can score 30 on Georgia. Think it’ll be more of a 24-17 type game. Obviously in Georgias favor
@@dynamiicon0030you crazy bama can put up 40 on Georgia yall won’t score over 20 on us
Never make a football prediction leading with the phrase 'I feel'.
Sounds like Mr. Mackay counseling Eric Cartman.
Or a woman talking to her kids.
@@dynamiicon0030 Bama did it in 21 in the SEC championship game when UGA had that all time defense but actually they put 40 so its definitely possible
As a Dawgs fan this is a fence we just have problems climbing at the moment. Kirby just had a mental block coaching against Nick. The game he won was due to some incredible players making it happen. I see this as his chance to start leveling up against Bama. We know that Nick probably has told and discussed Kirby's tendencies and game plan to the new Coach. I think this win goes and helps Ga better than hurting Bama. Ga needs confidence that this Nemesis will not haunt them especially if we play them again. I am a Ga fan , but can see this going bad if this game goes bad. This can become two Bama bad games if we meet again later if this one goes wrong. Either way Go Dawgs.
UGA got over the UF hump but weren't happy without a dominant nemesis. Dawg fan all day but we couldn't tackle Milroe last year and couldn't tackle UK last week. More of the same this year mixed in with a Bobo offense long moments of silence and we go down pretty big this weekend. Hope I'm wrong, but a blind optimist I am not.
Georgia coming to town! I love it. Georgia can win this game, Alabama can win this game. If we play like how we did against USF, Georgia is gonna manhandle us. If we play like how we did against Wisconsin, Alabama could win this game. 3 things for Alabama to win….. 1. Milroe has to play good. He has to, 2. O-Line needs to play well to, 3. Defense need to get stops, this will be the best offense we’ve played so far. They have to play well. The Key is Milroe. Milroe has to be play his best game
As a bama fan, in my opinion i feel like it will be a tight game & whomever wins the turnover battle wins the game. So being fundamental sound means everything to both team! A early loss to either team means nothing in a 12 team playoff depending on how they finish the season. The lost really only matters to the fan base trash talk whether its the "saban is gone" or "uga cant beat bama". Both team's will still have key games to win down the road in order to keep their playoff hopes alive. In my opinion i don't think milroe gives up another big home game like last year to texas but i also understand the difficulties playing quality opponents. Lets handle business, show some southern hospitality & roll with the tide!!! RTR 🏆🐘💨
Very much looking forward to this game. Just gonna leave this with a Roll Tide!🐘🏈🏆🔴⚪
If there's one thing I've learned in the last two decades, is that Georgia can still lose to Alabama with a four touchdown lead.
If my dawgs come out with this second-half bobo offense bullshit, they are absolutely going to lose.
Bama guy here. I really thought Georgia was the better team, until last week. Bama absolutely has a good chance the win. GA looked beatable. I can't wait. Just like the Clemson/Bama years, Bama/GA games are great.
You think the Georgia that showed up in Lexington will be the Georgia that shows us in Tuscaloosa???
@@dbvictor7289Georgia better hope they don’t play bama like they played Kentucky or it’s gonna be a long game for Georgia.
@dbvictor7289
They had better show up. I know Bama will.
@@dbvictor7289 I don't know which version will show up, neither do you. They showed no weakness until last week.
The Clemson game is closer to the Georgia you’re gonna see show up.
Dawg fan here and while of course I want UGA to win in the grand scheme of things it probably does not matter if they lose because at the end of the season they will still be a top 12 team and make the CFP. They probably will lose twice this season. This is the first season where it does not matter what you do in October but what you do in December and January. Go Dawgs!
Thanks for that Josh
Go Dawgs
Josh! You of all people should know that Coach Saban never passed for 1 touchdown or made 1 tackle! As a lifelong BAMMER , who bleeds Crimson I can tell u that these defenses are both really good HOWEVER the Bama offense is loaded and explosive and Milroe is pretty comfortable in this offense and is making better decisions! Georgia poodles are going to have to score 35+ to win! I don't see georgia being able to do that, especially playing in Tuscaloosa! Georgia doesn't have elite offensive threats like they've had in past years meaning they're going to run and do alot of dinks and dunks which Bama has elite edge rushers and the best starting linebackers in the country who can run sideline to sideline! J.Campbell/D.Lawson are big, fast, athletic, intelligent and have played alot of football! If Bama gets a 10-14 point lead before halftime its over! Bama with our full compliment of O-linemen Haynes and Jam can just run the ball and melt the clock when they want. Georgia don't have the offensive fire power like other years to get in a shootout with Alabama on a Saturday night in Tuscaloosa! RTR🐘🏈🏆 Bama wins
Josh, I love ya man, BUT.... you can compare the rivalrys of TX V OK, and Ohio State V MI in the past but there is NO comparison in 2024. COME ON MAN!!!! :D
Since smart has coached ga is 1-5 against bama. DeBoer has elevated Bama’s offense so far. What has Bama’s scores been last two years against teams like usf, Wisconsin, western Kentucky lol. That’s all I got to say.
If you’re a college football fan and not just a fan of a team. An actual fan of the game, you will definitely not want to miss this matchup. I’m not a fan of either team but you can bet I’m going to be somewhere I can watch it.
Over / Under is 48.5 which will be covered! Final Score: Georgia 17 55 Alabama! RTR
Cocaine is a hell of drug
Delete your account. Nobody scoring over 30 against Georgia all year
@@dynamiicon0030 Over 50! BAMA will take out Mirloe in the fourth as a sign of mercy
@EduStarEnglishCenter again cocaine is a hell of drug if you think that bullshit
GATA Dawgs
Should be a great game that comes down to one possession. Hopefully Georgia ends up on top.
Game will be great and has meaning in the very short term, but it's not impossible or hardly unlikely that they meet one or 2 more times with much more importance and this game is just another game in the long term/legacy of these teams
Alabama wins
Be a good measuring stick for both programs. Nothing either team can't rebound from. RTR!
Alabama wins with a night game at home. Likely will meet again down the road though and I would be inclined to take UGA in the rematch.
I believe that too. Dawgs lose this one but win in the playoffs
UGA fan and ill be cheering for UGA
But I think Alabama ends our 42 game regular season unbeaten streak
Michigan vs. Alabama for the National Championship. Kalen DeBoer and Alabama get a shot at redemption from last years playoff. Alex Orji vs. Jalen Milroe features two Texas-born Herculean athletes playing the QB position, in a Marvel comics level Clash of the Titans. Post-Saban. Post-Harbaugh. For all the marbles.
Just as Luge's(Maybe the most knowledgeable of all the so-called "analysts"-With no real biases ala a joelle KLACKie) feels, Ga. is going to PIN all their hopes defensively by loading up in a crowded box to stop the run. They are going to "dare" jalen and our WR's to beat them.
Ga wins the game IF:
*They can run the football effectively in early down situations and stay ahead of the chains.
It sets up their PA game,in which Beck is so good and accurate at.RB's are good. How good? NOT as good as in the past without question. But decent enough.
*They beat THE TIDE over the top 2-3 times for big plays(Arian Smith watch).Ga doesnt have the best WR room or TE room in America. There is NO question about that. But they are NOT exactly chopped liver either in Smith,Lovett,Young,Bell,Humphries,Luckie,and Delp. And they will screen a lot,also to the backs.
*Their O-Line plays up,and are better than I believe they are.
*They win the Turnover battle,we cant block their front(Which I seriously believe we kick their ass),we dont neutralize the speed of their LB's, they whip us on the 2nd level,and the perimeter with numbers,their backend comes up big,and Jalen pisses down his leg. THE TIDE's ballcatchers have to WIN in 1on1 matchups and 50/50 balls..
Going into this matchup,and kind of saying everyone plays up? Which of course probably wont occur. But just for shits+Giggles🤣......Lets compare rooms
QB-Push....IF they both are outstanding it is going to be a helluva game...
RB-Bama...I wouldnt trade Jam+JHaynes for ANYONE else's......
RB-Bama...Blocking alone gives Outzs,Dippre,Lewis,and Cuevas the sizable EDGE.....
O-Line-Bama...It wont be hard to find their defenders,and IF we pound on them like we did last December?....Game,set,+Match unless we turn it over,Jalen fails the test,or we have typical,shit SEC officiating crew over-officiating the ballgame for evaluation purposes. Or are "Bought off" jason autry-like.....
WR-Bama-Based off explosive,overall speed+athleticism,plus Coaches KD,NS,JS,+BE whom are superior to Bobo and his staff IMO....And hopefully sooner than later? KLaw is going to smoke somebody's backside. He is a combo of the strongest/most explosive/and fastest college football player in the land. And he has 1 stinking catch. And 2 touches. Somebody is going to pay.
Interior D-Line-Bama.....THE Tim's are playing solid football,as is James Smith+DPayne...Come on BIG Jeheim!!...Your turn to eat....
Edge-Push....so many outstanding,explosive players if all are "reasonably" healthy and can play....
ILB-Push-The same....I think THE TIDE has a higher ceiling(Especially if Lawson is active,physical,and plays fast-in fact IF he does then I give the edge to Bama with Campbell+JJ also)
Secondary-Push...Both are athletically and speed-wise,outstanding .....Let's see who makes MORE plays and LESS mistakes.....
Special teams- Could be the difference...
I’m hosting some friends to watch the game on Saturday and I worry I’ll be a serious nervous wreck. I get nauseous when we play Kent state so Idk how I’ll manage this 😂
UGA had better get some trash cleaned up on both lines. Glad we are not #1 as long as we are in the top 12 by the end of the year. College football is a new game
Have faith brother. UK had oline problems against USC, then cleaned them up when they faced UGA. UGA had the same problems against UK, now we have 2 weeks to clean it up. Plus we should get a lot of guys back from the injured list. I have a feeling you're gonna have a good time Sat night. 😉
52-10 Bama.
As a die hard bama fan i know Georgia wants it more. But its ok we will see u again this year, one way or another.
Hope he does a Louisville vs notre dame preview ?
I was amazed that Georgia lost to Alabama last year, and I'll be amazed this year if that happens.
Don't even need that Tuesday's show to know who Josh is picking. He is picking 'bama. He will praise UGA to high heavens, but he is not picking UGA in any game he can reasonably pick against them.
Tbf he’s been right
@@AceWillliams or wrong
@@jefferyparker4277 well he’s picked Bama everytime and has been right 5 out of 6 times. So he’s prob gonna pick them bc it’s worked well
@@AceWillliams no, he is gonna pick them cause he does not want to be seen as a homer. He will pick Texas, Ole Miss, and Tennessee as well. He is a UGA hater when it comes to actually picking the games.
Columbus ga here roll tide all day
I bet ur black
AGREE. 100%.
GO DAWGS!
The Saban legacy wins Saturday no matter who wins the game. This scenario is all new for Georgia. It's tough to maintain a high standard over multiple seasons with staff changes, player challenges and all the voices in your collective heads!
In a way, both teams are the underdog.
ROLL TIDE
I'm of the mindset that Georgia will win. Just remember, a win or loss isn't the end of the world for either team. They can still meet each other in the playoffs or for the Chip. Just like the year LSU beat Bama and then Bama played LSU for the natty and won.
I'm an FSU fan, but I'm going to be watching this. I think UGA will win it
The hurricanes name is BIG AL !!
According to the models I've seen, the hurricane should be past Tuscaloosa by Saturday, so even though the field will be wet, the chance of rain is low. Hopefully, we don't have a mud bowl, and we can see these teams really lay it all out on the field
Bryant Denny has a very good drainage system under the field. It wont even be wet.
Kirby is the only coach that has lost 5 times to Nick Saban and didn't get fired. Great job Kirby.
Kirby, Kirby, he’s our man if he can’t do it GREAT! - The Genie
@@Byrd21590 🤣🤣
I don’t think losing to Nick Saban was the reason those other coaches got fired. It was the non-Nick Saban games that were the problem.
Bama fans are so fun because it’s legit a 50/50 chance that comments like this are serious
@@ThemDawgsIsHellDontThey it is serious. Just remember “Saban assistant” 😂
Bama was Bama before Saban
I just hope Kirby doesn’t put two spy’s on Milroe like last year. Last year was essentially 9 vs 11 bc two LBs literally just stood still watching the QB most of the game.
What annoys me as a bama fan if we win they will still say Georgia is favored to win the sec and the natty they no matter what these days still say they are the better program and I have no idea why
This schedule is brutal for the SEC. Alabama is facing multiple ranked SEC teams in the next couple of weeks.
Bama is Bama, at home also, will be a tough game for GA. Be close, turnover may be different in game.
Just because we lost Coach Saban that doesn’t mean we will lose the game this Saturday. People are crazy to not put respect under Coach Deboer’s coaching skills..he is the best coach right now because he had to rebuild a ship that was sinking that everyone was jumping out of. And if he beats Georgia, just wow 🤩 and RTR!!
Rebuild a ship lol. He was handed a yacht.
UGA can’t make too much of this game win or lose not with the remaining schedule (Texas, Tenn, Ole Miss). Kirby will have them physically ready to play but the players have to get that mental toughness to get over the bama hump!
2best teams. Roll tide
ROLL TIDE ROLL 😊
What’s sad is there’s people that are now adults that only know a Saban Alabama lol
I wish they could see the Mike Dubose to Mike Shula years… that’s the true Alabama lol.
The true Alabama ?! So we never won an SEC championship or National Championship before Coach Saban arrived ?! Is that what you’re implying ? I sure hope not considering there were 20 SEC titles and 11 National Championships in Tuscaloosa prior to the arrival of Coach Saban lol 😝
RTR
@@skipgumphrey9579 yeah Like Harvard dominating the 30s… Alabama has been good multiple times but not since the 70s… the Shula years were more often than not.
No i know about bear Bryant and most the halfway coaches lol I remember how bad or in consistent bama was before saban personally don’t care for Bama but Saban knows how to win I give him that much
The truth is that with the new playoff format, it doesn’t matter who loses. They’ll both still make it in.
I really hope the hurricane doesn't screw this up
Man, I’m nervous about this game as a UGA team
Kirby is about to get boatraced!
2 people get exposed this weekend. Either UGA or Bama , and Josh Pate after claiming these are the best 2 teams in the conference with the best atmosphere. I said what I said.
It's not in ga dome in Tuscaloosa yeah baby
The hurricane won't effect the game and we have weather men to keep tabs on it👍
ROLL TIDE ROLL FOREVER AND ALWAYS ❤
