If Florida wins this weekend what does that mean?

I heard GMac say on Thinking Out Loud that he has analyzed Justin Fields's play so far and thinks he is about a half second to a second off on his timing/reads/checkdowns, etc.. that's why he thinks he is not ready. (Or something like that, this is not word for word). I personally think Kirby should try Justin Fields more at the position.. he won't get much better unless he has more play time.
Not while UGA still only has one loss. If they lose a second one then put fields in.
I've been of the mind that Kirby is still being too conservative and like Saban used to be with backups. Look at his numbers. He threw eight passes against Austin Peay and MTSU each. In the other five games, he's thrown a combined nine passes.
The guy won the Elite 11 last year. He's got the ability. Might not be all there mentally, but Kirby doesn't appear to be giving him the chance to improve or show it, either.
Fields is legit, but so is Fromm. IMO, neither is improving. They need a better QB coach.
Fromm should have been pulled in the 7SU game. He was just having a really bad day that day and Fields maybe could have provided some kind of spark to get them going. It seems Kirby doesn’t trust Fields for some reason. It could be that Kirby is too conservative in his offensive approach.

It means my wife wears her Gator clothes in downtown and makes incendiary remarks to the natives for the next year. It'll be glorious.
Fields is a really good passer who won the Elite 11 but he's raw, like how Tua was last year, now yes, Tua last year was still a better passer than probably 95% of QBs in 2017 but there was a reason why Saban didn't give him meaningful PT until the NCG.
The problem is we have heard how great qbs are, but until we see them in an actual game its nothing. Tua is an exception to the rule. There are more Perrilouxs, Jeremy Johnsons, and Blake Barnetts (then not now) than Tuas. If Kirby isnt using Fields with an average qb that is stinking it up against his best competition that tells you all you need to know. Personally I believe that Eason was better than both.
This is very special......

Just like me in my Bama gear. It's quite fun, this year especially. :biggrin2:Ha....good for her!
100% agree. I think that Georgia is the better team of UF and UK and them. UK did themselves a great favor by beating UF, but that should have happened last year, in reality. Florida is not all that sound at the point of attack, and they are not set up to get into an offensive showdown with anyone. Keys for UGA is to get a fast start. Don't let this get into the 4th quarter with only a 3 pointer separating them. UGA wins, FLORIDA is then OUT officially, and UGA will curb stomp Kentucky.
Similar "problems" are seen at other programs from time to time, when there is elite talent everywhere. Cardale Jones at your school comes to mind. Guy was lights out against Bama in 2014, or was it 15? But he had hella competition at the position there in Columbus, and that's why he wasn't a multi-year starter. This season for Bama, same deal. Jalen has more than proven himself, but has weaknesses, and Tua got the job.
Some problem to have. UGA has elite talent everywhere. They aren't a one year thing.
