Texas A&M/Georgia

**paste_me** · 12-27-09, 09:15 PM

I agree! They play a legit schedule

**mmike032** · 12-27-09, 09:19 PM

U 66.5 for me
probally wont play a side

UGA will control the LOS and run the ball down Texas A&Ms throat all game.
Richt has said he will look to keep the ball away from A&M like they did with GT.
I look for nothing but clock killing drives for the Dawgs.

who knows what UGA defense will show up...

**Mac4Lyfe** · 12-27-09, 09:21 PM

Georgia covers in a shootout that they take over in the 4th. Georgia's defense will contain JJ and defensive line will give him fits.

Georgia impressed the hell out of me with their victory over GTECH.

I'm leaning towards the under due to Georgia's run game...a run game that will put up points...but also bleed the clock.

I agree the under is the play for me as well. May put a small wager on Geo.

**mmike032** · 12-28-09, 12:01 AM

AJ Green will play also for those that didnt know

I haven't pulled the trigger yet....

the thought of a possible fire fight with a game score like 31-38 scares the hell out of me. Both teams can put up points and have done so against highly ranked teams.

per Richts press conference:
Richts gameplan is to slow the game down. He doesnt want to get into a shotout with A&M.
UGA will run the ball early and often and try and control the clock.

whether the gameplan comes through or not is anybodies guess.

the defense is going to be the same kind of scheme Martinez would run.
which would be a soft zone I assume. that worries me.
however Garner said he has threw in a few wrinkles into the defensive scheme for this game.
I have no idea what that might be but I'm guessing some different blitz packages.

**Boddhissatva** · 12-28-09, 12:29 AM

Good points Mike...this is making me more confident in my pick.

**Boddhissatva** · 12-28-09, 12:39 AM

Here is another factor to consider...all the losses Texas AM suffered...all of their opponents scored 35 or more...they have poor defense...and the Georgia RB's both averaged more than 9 yards per carry in their victory over GTech.

$hit..I'm leaning towards the over now...

Maybe I should just stay away from this game.

**Cornerback** · 12-28-09, 01:18 AM

I'm taking the OVER. Like MAC said it should be a shootout.

**capper123** · 12-28-09, 01:34 AM

Tease vikings down and georgia down 7 points. They should both be able to atleast win by a feild goal. Thats your best bet!

**nightlife32** · 12-28-09, 01:51 AM

Love the under in this one.....A&M pulls it out in a close one!

**Jonah** · 12-28-09, 02:45 AM

Georgia has one Defensive Coach left...Grad Assistants will be helping construct the Defensive Game Plan...Yes, I think Richt will try to keep the ball away from A&M, but when A&M does get it - watch out... AJ Green is coming back as well...This is a hard one.

**Shortstop** · 12-28-09, 05:08 AM

Under! Under! Under! 66.5

**droc** · 12-28-09, 08:24 AM

A&M +

**zagat** · 12-28-09, 09:33 AM

am and under for i

**Straight Cash** · 12-28-09, 10:03 AM

I'm rolling with the under as well.

**BigdaddyQH** · 12-28-09, 10:07 AM

This game defines the word PASS. The Georgia defense had 4 games where they gave up 20 points or less, and 4 games where they gave up 37 or more. A&M's defense had 4 games where they gave up 19 or less, but the other 8 saw them give up 30 or more, including 60 or more twice. A&M scored 31 or more 9 times during the season. Georgia scored 30 or more 6 times. I have no idea how these teams keep the score under 66 1/2, which means this could be a wild game. Still, if UGA is just going to grind it out, and not throw the ball, the game could go under. This was the most definate "No Play" I had in the bowl season.

**teaserpleaser** · 12-28-09, 10:09 AM

2 good offenses and 2 bad defenses... You know Texas AM hits 30+ I'd be shocked if Georgia can't hit 30s vs that AM defense. wait until you get a gander at the A&M cornerback play vs T. king and Aj green joe cox should have a big game. I know martinez is gone and im reading on the bulldogs.com that the defensive scheme is changing we'll see if the dawgs come out with that weak ass pass rush and soft corners if so you can kiss those unders goodbye imo. If i had to pick a side it would be georgia AM defense is beyond terrible.

**cadillac pete** · 12-28-09, 10:59 AM

The Dawgs should be able to point up a ton of points here and have enough defense to stop the Aggies when it matters..Dawgs -6'

**keitht** · 12-28-09, 11:04 AM

cool

grad assisants are not helping with the gameplan. yes they are helping with practice and will be on the sideline.
Rodney Garner who has been with UGA as a defensive coach for a long time is in charge on the defense.

**Superman455** · 12-28-09, 11:55 AM

I am on Georgia, i think the speed of an SEC defense will be too much for A&M to handle. GL

**TodayIsForgotten** · 12-28-09, 12:08 PM

I could see this game being like the Middle Tenn Southern Miss game. Dasher ran all over Southern Miss. Johnson has some of that ability too. The hardest part about the O/U is I can see the game being played in the 40s - 50s but i can see it being played right around the 65-70 mark. Why didn't i just put the money on Dallas or the Under in the dallas game. Nope, instead lets put it on Kentucky to win the spread. This game is both tempting and evil.

**phatgentleman** · 12-28-09, 04:16 PM

still like A&M im puttin 1G on them.
