Re: Atlanta radio host and former UGA QB Buck Belue: "Barrett Jones overrated"
yes they are.Georgia fans are like this all of the time.

Welcome to my world.I can take that kind of overrating. Reading the UGA boards is sort of bizarro world. The vast majority feel that they're going to steamroller us. There're few who even think it'll be a game. I've never seen such a cocky fan base, especially being substantial underdogs. I hope the fans' attitudes have seeped into the team's psyches...

Good Lord don't i know it.yes they are.
Earle, I've noticed over the years that teams and fans of those teams who trash talk or smack talk like Georgia has are hiding a secret fear that their going to get their butts handed to them once the game starts...lolI can take that kind of overrating.

Two of their best players were suspended for the South Carolina game.
Players who get themselves suspended before a huge game like that can't really be counted on anyway.Two of their best players were suspended for the South Carolina game.
A friend just PMed me that teams which are 7.5 pt underdogs lose 73% of the time...Earle, I've noticed over the years that teams and fans of those teams who trash talk or smack talk like Georgia has are hiding a secret fear that their going to get their butts handed to them once the game starts...lol
The last time I remember so much smack was from the Miami Hurricanes and their fan base before we showed them how to play football in the 92 Sugar Bowl.
sip
Unless it was Superman and The Incredible Hulk -- I find it hard to believe 2 players would be that impactful unless it was the QB and your KickerTwo of their best players were suspended for the South Carolina game.
as mentioned earlier, the suspended players were back for their wonderful performances against tennessee, s cal, and kentuckyUnless it was Superman and The Incredible Hulk -- I find it hard to believe 2 players would be that impactful unless it was the QB and your Kicker
it don't even take black jersey's to skeer me, them silver britches have me quaking in my bootsI'm scared that in addition to having us so very overmatched, they'll break out the black jerseys again. That'll seal our doom right there.
Against good competition...he comes up short.AJ is certainly over rated when compared to Aaron Murray.
Look at these stellar statistics against the two top ten teams Aaron faced this season
Against South Carolina 11-31, 109 yards, 0 TD's, 1 interception
Against Florida 12-24, 150 yards, 1TD, 3 interceptions
That's 23-55 for 269 yards, 1TD and 4 interceptions in their biggest games this season. Hard to top that
In defense of Buck Belue, he played in a different era. I'd be very surprised to hear him say Barrett is overrated as he usually is just kidding around about that sort of thing. I've met him and talked Georgia and Bama football with him before. He's really a class act. You have to remember, he won with their only real national championship team back in 80. You have to understand that he's going to be a homer -- not to be a jerk but believe me Buck bleeds black and red. If you've listened to him over the years he has been very complimentary towards Bama. I have no animosity towards him. Yeah but I do admit, it will be good to beat those Dawgs tomorrow RTR!!!!Buck Belue's statistics, per Totalfootballstats.com

Buck's highest rating is below A.J.'s lowest rating. Look at those TD/Int ratios as well, and passing yardage to boot. I've gotta admit, it looks like Buck should know a thing or two about being overrated.
Try living in Athens and hearing their smack talk on a daily basis!!Georgia fans are like this all of the time.
Well, I think Murray's big game performances pretty much has determined what our game plan will be on defense. Lots of blitzes.Against good competition...he comes up short.
No doubts. I'm going to be a homer as well. Buck picks at Barrett, Bamachile picks at Buck - nothing personal. :wink:In defense of Buck Belue, he played in a different era.
