Osu/uga

[stander]

Pretty much everything I've been reading here at the RX is people high on OSU in Stillwater. And given their high-powered O and the pourous UGA defense of last year it's easy to see why.

Though I've read a few posts from some vets who are looking to take UGA if the line goes up to +7.

GA is one of my favorite teams so I am always hesitant to put in a play on their games, but I think this year's dawgs might be a lot better than most people think.

Anyone out there on the dawgs ATS or to pull the upset?

Yes, I am, and have been since early July.

i follow uga

they lost a great RB.. but they always have a back up ready to take there place. The qb stafford gone. but got cox who was a back up and knows the system.

wait tell it hit +7 then take them..

Georgia has injury problems. Ri:cripwalk:ght now, RB Caleb King is questionable with a bad hammy. Starting Center Ben Jones is questionable with a sprained ankle. I would wait until the injury situation clears up before taking Georgia.

Ben Jones didn't start the year last year at Center it was Chris Davis and now he has replaced him. BJ has a high ankle sprain and is day to day. Caleb King has a sore hammy and should start back practicing this week. He will be behind Richard Samuel (true soph). I'm expecting a UGA win so I'll take the points and throw some on the ML as well.

Rule #1 in wagering. Bet with your head, not your heart. Georgia is facing an offense far superior to theirs, on the road. Right now, the line is -6 and solid. I do not know if it will get to 7, and I would have to have at least 7 points to even consider playing Georgia in this spot.

And, Georgia is facing a defense far inferior to their own. Richt will implement ball control in this game and try to keep OSU's offense off the field as much as possible. The points look very good here . . . . .

I personally think the under in this game is the better bet. UGA will try and play "keep away" from the OSU offense in this one.

UGA has focused completely on getting back to attacking the football, and tackling in the preseason. Additionally, I am not sure how the UGA offense will come out in the first game of the year.

I am on Georgia as well. They should be able to wear OSU down with a physical running game and keep the OSU offense on the sideline. Always like getting points with the better defensive,running and coached team. Also, OSU does not have a good history of playing well in big games in recent times. Can't recall them putting everything together in a prime time pressure game other than the Missu game last year.

Like others on this board....I have been on UGA since the lines came out also...I understand how really freaking good OSU's offense is...no denying that....but last years defense was atrocious...not because of scheme or coaching...but because they just didn't have the talent there...

Georgia lost a lot. Anyone who loses their 2 best offensive players in the top 13 of the draft is losing a lot. However, this is a team that when healthy is deep. Very deep. They will control the LOS in this game. Richt will have the defense in position to pressure Robinson and keep the ball away from them while on offense. I like Georgia in this game.

Just some additional information in regards to OSU's offense last year....

This is from another website that I read.

"Yes, they have great stats on offense, but look at who they ran the numbers up against. Overall, the Cowboys averaged 40.8 points per game on offense. That's good enough for 9th in the nation. However, against schools with a losing overall record or from a non-BCS conference, that scoring average ballooned to 55 points per game.

Against BCS schools that did not have a losing record, they only averaged 29 points per game. Just saying...look closer at the numbers."

I'm betting with my head and on the Dawgs completely. Last year's bowl games have shown how overrated the Big 12 is as a whole. UGA's defense shuts down the Okie State offense and wins it moderately big. UGA getting any points is a blessing.

Agreed 100%. All the talk has been about the big 3 on the OSU offense, nothing mentioned about their sieve for a defense. My money will be on Richt, this won't be the first time that he has had to go on the road with a young team.

I see a better line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball... experience on UGA OL, stout DTs on the DL. Be very very careful. Dawgs will play with a chip on their shoulder this year.

Under is the play.
