Watching the Clemson game, Davis was disruptive the whole game going against their offensive line. I think his height and athleticism will impact Georgia's offense when Fromm passes. He's going to be an All American next year in my opinion and can impact a game like Nick Fairley did several years ago. Kelly Bryant of Clemson is a much better athlete than Fromm and we bottled him up most of the night. Hopefully our defensive front can make Georgia's life miserable on Monday.
Raekwon Davis could be an X-Factor in this game

He's certainly come into his own. The problem I have with Georgia's Oline is that lesser defensive lines have given them fits. Oklahoma still got considerable pressure on them as well as Notre Dame, and South Carolina. I think this Dline will pickup where it left off Monday night. RTR
The health of the whole DL is an X-factor to me.

I think our defensive line "turned a corner" in the Clemson game. Hand, Davis and Payne were PHYSICALLY mauling those guys at the line. It was the first time I'd seen our guys play with some outward emotion and intensity in a long, long time. They looked like a pack of wolves chasing a three legged dog. I hope that intensity and attitude shows up Monday night again.
The key is stopping their running game. I'm normally not worried about this but Georgia has excellent backs that can house it on any play. If the defensive line and linebackers can stop their run enough and force Fromm to pass, I like our chances. Alabama is probably the best secondary that he has seen to date. If he makes plays on us as a true freshman then all we can do is tip our hat. I want to see Lewis, Miller, Hand and Davis get after them.
Yep, I think Raekwon can be really special before he leaves. I also think that Hand seems to be feeling better, contributed against Clemson, and could be a significant factor Monday night.
Well, we are in the zone of talking up the game anyway we can; its a good observation, hope he is right.
Agree, nothing wrong with the topic ...any position or player is worthy of discussion in this game
Any penetration, limiting the backs ability to hit the hole with quickness, combined with sure tackling (we were suspect last game in corralling Bryant) from the defensive line will be an added bonus if the linebackers can continue their disruptive play from the Clemson game. We need the line to occupy blockers and force double teams, Davis and Payne should be able to do that.

I may be wrong but I just don't see Fromm having a lot of success against our defense and if he don't....then we all know what our defense can do to any teams running attack.
Jarrett Stidham and Nick Fitzgerald had success at the end of the season against out defense but I think that was more of our defense being injured, worn down and maybe just a little complacency involved.
This defense is rejuvenated, healthier than its has been since....last week
, but much healthier than late November. They have a hunger too that was not present at the end of the season!!
If our offense can play ball control, time of possession, and not turn the ball over...which they can, Bama rolls!!

Blue font intended: but what about Ben Davis??
Lol, sorry I had to do it before someone else did.

FIFY - I’m a little nervous about the number of points we put up, might not need many, but still need them

Yes!! His height is very disruptive off the edge, we need big plays on the perimeter in this game.
