Smelter and Waller make hay while the sun is shining. UGA's secondary is thin, thin thin!

1) Shootout like UNC but this time we have the ball last.
2) Clock killing drives with no errors like Miami game.
3) Win turnover battle by two or three.

Do what we did last year. Be stout vs the run and put the game Mason hand. Only this year, we will be a little more aggressive on obvious passing downs.
As far as the O goes, just play physical smash mouth football and not try to get too cute

Offense: Have to have success throwing the football. UGA's defensive front won't be as good as Clemson but it will be extremely talented. We won't be able to blow them off the ball like we did against Pitt, NC State, UNC, etc. We have to score TD's. Can't settle for FG's like we did last year. If we go up 24-0 against UGA last year instead of 20-0, it's a different story. Justin Thomas will have to play his best game of the year and can't turn the ball over. Smelter and Waller will need to make plays.
Defense: Turnovers. Need to force them. Be aggressive as ****. Bring the house on obvious passing downs. I highly doubt we'll be able to force many punts on Saturday. Rotate often on the DL. We remember what happened last year. Defense was dominant in the first half. UGA ran it down our throats in the second half.

Justin Thomas stay healthy. Watch for the same BS they did to Nesbitt in 2009. They know JT is our best chance to win Saturday.

This. If we are +2 or better we will win the game IMO.

We win by Miami-ing them. Move the chains offensively. Have no big-breakaway, three-play drives—instead, grind out 4, 5, 6 yards on the ground every play, eating lots of clock time in the process. Win the ToP battle 40-20, so that the enemy feels pressured to abandon their ground game and go to the air. Get a few stops/turnovers when they do.

Last year we came out passing. Put up 20pts doing so then it seemed we let off the gas and of course we couldn't stop Gurley, you sure we shouldn't change it up?

Feeling better about the passing in this game then I have in a long time.. JeT seems to be able to make the touch passes count, which is where we will need him against uGA.
I don't think we are going to see our wideouts running free with busted coverage

Kick it through the end zone. Don't want that guy getting the ball in his hands on kickoffs.

agreed on the passing game. to be a little more specific, we need to be successful in the passing game early on. A couple times this year, thomas seemed a bit "off" early on and then warms up...we can't afford to be inefficient early on in the passing game.
