Game Thread: Kentucky vs Georgia (2:30 CDT on CBS)

[Tide&True]

Two undefeated teams. Have to give Mark Stoops credit for building a pretty good team. They just happen to be playing a really good Georgia team that looks like the best team in the nation at this point. Will Kentucky keep it close?

I hope Kentucky wins just to shut up the uga fans. It sucks living here right now.

I’m sure it does. UGA is one of those teams who think their “you know what” don’t stink.

If it was at Ky, I’d look for an upset. I still think they’ve got a shot, but I do think Ky covers. Their D is better than Arkansas.

Maybe this will be Georgia’s version of our game with aTm

Gotta have a QB that can sling it to beat UGA. Does UK have that?

 

[PA Tide Fan]

Nope. I expect Georgia to win by at least 3 TD's.

Will Levi’s is a good athlete. But though 6 games he has 64% completion and around 1200 yards with 6 ints. I know Kentucky leans on the run game. So, to answer your question…probably not good enough.

Georgia has the 63rd ranked passing offense (Ky is 97).
and 34th ranked rushing offense.
Neither team is an offensive powerhouse. Georgia may be more efficient but they both win with defense. Kentucky has 10 senior starters on defense (some fifth year).

I think they get a scare. But UGA stays unbeaten.

The Mildcats likely keep it close through early 3rd quarter then UGA's depth takes over. Bennett, mostly a game manager, is good enough to beat UK. I do agree that Stoops has done a good job this year. Toughest remaining game is UT in Lexington.

Go Cats! If this was in Kentucky, with the great atmosphere, I'd give them a chance. I think they lose by at least 14 in Athens though. I hope Florida can beat UGA just so UGA will have 1 loss.

 

[JayBama_in_PCOLA]

UGA will ravage UK, and the game is in Athens.

UGA will ravage UK, and the game is in Athens.

I feel like this game may look like the Arkansas game. UK will need some bounces and some timely flags.

 

[TideEngineer08]

I'm afraid Georgia covers the spread and then some.

 

[CoolBreeze]

Got a good Dawg friend that is worried about this game. He seems to feel that they will struggle BECAUSE they are at home and playing so well this year. So far, they have looked unbeatable to me and I will keep that impression until shown otherwise.

Winning with grace is an alien concept to those who’ve not done it at the highest level for a protracted period of time. UGA is the poster child for that. If something happens and they don’t win it all this year, I think their fans will go ape dookie.

Here’s hoping something does happen.

Apparently is the first time Georgia will play a game as the #1 ranked team since the 1980s?

It would be just like them to go out and puke all over themselves in this game. Maybe they wear those black jerseys. UK just isn’t anywhere near the same level of talent. But they are a veteran team.

I just wouldn’t advise anyone to get their hopes up.

 

[DawgAlum2054]

This is a true number as crazy as it sounds

I thought I remembered them being #1 at one point in the Stafford/Moreno days?
