BCS Allstate Sugar Bowl - Hawaii vs Georgia

[onlooker]

New Orleans - January 1, 2008, 8:30 p.m. EST - Fox

I am sure the odds will be out any time now. Lets get this thing going and get a discussion going on this bowl.

[rjt721]

Winnable game for Hawaii.

[Illusion]

This line should be -8.5 Georgia.

[bigboydan]

I'll take my chances with [iSBRFORUM]Hawaii[/iSBRFORUM] +7.5

HAWAII +7½-110
GEORGIA -7½-110
Total: 70-110

[hawk 5]

Bookmaker has it at 8

[hawk 5]

Up to 10 at Bookmaker, I took Georgia at 8

[hawk 5]

If this goes much higher I'll try a middle.

[rjt721]

Hawaii wins this game outright. Remember what Ainge and UT did to UGA? It will happen again.

[imgv94]

I'll take my chances with [iSBRFORUM]Hawaii[/iSBRFORUM] +7.5

Anyway,


Backdoor will be open all night with Brennan and co. Spread at +10 now I hit it.

GL Everyone

[hawk 5]

Up to 11, damn, how high will it go?

[imgv94]

I'm surprised with this line at +11.

[hawk 5]

I'm surprised with this line at +11.

Me too, I get 12 I'll try a middle.

I wish GO would beat them by 50. Im not a fan of HI getting in the BCS.

HI is going to spend the next month figuring out how to stop the run, if they can hold GO to low rushing yardage HI might be able to score enough points in this game to keep it close.

GO is going to have to find a way to play man against HI WR's and not get beat for the big play. If you sit in zone all day HI will just march down the field and you will have to hope you can stop them on the short field in the red zone. Getting pressure on Colt will be a must as well.

[ShamsWoof10]

The one thing I would be worried about if I was Hi. would be the pressure they are going to put on Colt... Pressure if it gets to the qb can make any super star qb, even that tool Manning, a below average qb.. I think GA. is physical and that D might be a much bigger problem then their running game...

[Louisvillekid1]

Georgia is so much better then hawaii it's ridic. They will prove it with a balanced attack. They will pound the ball against those eleven players on hawaii's defense who can't tackle anyone, and will get absoutlely no pressure on matthew stafford. Thomas Brown and Knowshon Moreno will each surpass 100 yds rushing. Colt will throw a few picks, and probaly fumble or two from Georgia pass rush. Hawaii should have lost to Nevada and to washington, teams that aren't very good at all. Georgia rolls in this one 44 - 17

[cashflow50]

they want to play in the sugar bowl, georgia doesn't. i think IMO the team that is more determined and has a whole lot to prove wins. hopefully D will come to play cause moreno is one tough customer. brennan is too good to pass up. ya ya i know they played cup cakes, but winning when it counts matters. they proved that they can overcome deficits in games. oh well just my thoughts. lean hawaii for now.

So if Hawaii beats Georgia will THIS be the game that finally earns them a little respect?!?

Short answers is: Yes.

The slightly longer version is: When the best victory on your
resume is over the bottom feeder of the Pac10, perhaps you don't deserve a lot of respect.

[The Seer]

Isn't all of this Georgia killing Hawaii talk kind of like Oklahoma killing Boise last year talk. Does Georgia feel snubbed? Does Hawaii have the O to get a back door cover? I also remember Georgia taking an ass beating by WV in the Sugar Bowl the last time they were there. I think this game needs to be looked at real close.

i would consider their double digit win over boise state as their best win, but that could just be me

[sweethook]

2 most over rated teams in top 10 = WVU & GEORGIA, but because of wvu bad outing last game they may cover in bowl game , no way georgia will. NO WAY.

[Rollins08]

I think Hawaii is going to get a lot of action because of Boise from last year. Basically Hawaii can't be stopped on O and can't stop anyone on D. I'm guessing though that Georgia will stop Hawaii at least a couple of times and win this game by 2 TD's.

[HAWGMOLLIE]

GA wins big...

[cashflow50]

rjt and gyno both on hawaii. 2 respected cappers. hawaii is the hungrier team. they want to play at the sugar bowl. no whinning here. it depends on which dawg team shows up, whinning one or serious one. i believe hawaii's D with a little less than a month to prepare will be ready to stop the run.

[VolinArizona]

I have 3u on Georgia -9.5

[joeygats]

after watching hawaii vs wash last week Georgia in a blow out bank it

[manny24]

IF my aunt were my uncle she'd have balls too.

[Big Flo]

If Hawaii is'nt playing at home they don't stand a chance in hell of covering let alone winning. They're so out of their league in this one it is'nt even funny. I'm so tired of hearing about Hawaii this and Hawaii that. They should have lost that game against Washington. They got lucky. I can tell you one thing fo sure. They won't get lucky against Georgia thats for gotdamn sure.

[pavyracer]

Georgia will ridicule Hawaii on national TV. They will control the game at the OL and DL. You can't throw if your OL is getting beaten consistenly. Georgia defense will cover the spread alone.

[HAPPY BOY]

love the Bulldogs I think they cover this game easily. Two different breeds here. *5* unit play on the Dogs.

[cashflow50]

david will beat goliath
