Georgia now has a problem.
They didn't just lose to Bama, they got completely exposed. Now Harbaugh has almost a month to scheme for them.
Harbaugh is a very good coach and has finally found an identity this year at Michigan. Iowa isn't a great team by any means but he dismantled them, in a game that I thought had a high chance of being a trap for Michigan after finally beating Ohio State.
Georgia, on the other hand, now has a schematic on how to take advantage of their defense and limit their limited offense. They also just got walloped by Bama again so their confidence and morale has probably take. A decent hit.
This is all true but….
1. Harbaugh will have to curb his ego and abandon the run game, not sure he can
2. Michigan does not have Bruce Young, nor to they have any real talent at WR
However, the morale and mental part is definitely worth watching
I doubt Michigan pulls it off but the only time I watched Michigan for any length of time was the Nebraska game. I would love to see them do it though.
I have a thread regarding the four QBs in the CFP. Cade McNamara isn't Bryce Young, but he has made plays late in big games this year. Like the dime he threw to that TE in that big win over Penn State. Bennett has done nothing as such. He's not that type. In a close game, I think the Maize/Blue gang can pull this one out.
He literally curbed his ego this year and went to power run.
So you'd like him to abandon what's gotten them to the playoffs?
How does that make sense?
"I know we got here by dominating the line of scrimmage and running the ball but we're going to switch to a high-powered passing attack against Georgia."
What?
It'll be the same old story. Can UM's defense shut down UGa long enough and keep the game close until the UM Oline can wear down the UGa defense and get the running game going in the second half? Uga has a pretty deep roster, might take until well into the 4th. But the UGa offense is pretty average, so it's worth trying. If UM was playing Bama from last year or LSU from two years ago, they'd get run out of the building. WIth this UGa team, we will see.
How does that make sense?
Did you see Bama try to run yesterday? They couldn’t.
You think Saban wanted to throw on every play? Hell he had to throw to run the clock out.
So yeah he can say thats what got us here or he can, ya know, coach and come up with a scheme to exploit UGA.
And I assure you that UM has not faced a DL half as good or deep as UGAs.
Rooting for a big Notre Dame upset of Georgia. In that Notre Dame gets in and Georgia does not.
I get it dude but you act like I'm 3 weeks Harbaugh can just change them to a spread offense.
that's ridiculous.
He's going to have to gameplan with what works for them.
I DO think that they have the ability to use the short passing game as an extension of the run game and open up the deeper pass plays.
it's going to be a difficult game for Michigan but then again, keep this in mind, Bama was the first real team that Georgia faced all year.
So we'll see. But it's kind of silly to think that Harbaugh and just flip a switch and turn into a pass dominant team.
Ok, now I gotcha.
Yes, obviously he won’t and can’t come out and become a vertical passing team. That you are 100% correct on.
I was simply saying Harbaugh has a “tough guy” image he tries to portray, honestly it damn near cost him his job. Its if he can tweak to some of the plays to open up the run. He has traditionally not done well when he can’t run between the tackles.
These teams are honestly identical clones of one another. Great front seven, suspect secondary, need to run to win.
I think there are two major differences:
1. georgia is deeper and has more talent
2. if you watched the selection show Harbaugh was having a party, hanging banners and starting a campaign for his DE to win the Heisman. Kirby was in his office prepping for the game.
All I know at this point is that I almost lost it on my father last night when he openly admitted he was pulling for Georgia.
The same man that once threw a beer bottle at the TV because of Buck Bellew and a Lindsay Scott.
Georgia winning a national title is unacceptable to me.
In fact, any self-respecting Florida fan should be thanking Nick Saban for doing everything he can to keep that reality from happening.
I sure was glad my bookie gave me that 6.5 and Alabama yesterday. I knew you don't piss Nick off and make his team an underdog. The first time they were an underdog in 93 games. So with the $3200 I made off Florida this year I took that and put it on BAMA and took the points. So now I sit at $6400 and I have a month to decide if I want to let it ride or cash it in.
