2025 UGA-Texas game has been on SEC Network today. Had it on in the background while doing some stuff around the house. Couple random thoughts…
- Really impressed with the back that Nate Frazier became last year. Doled out a lot of punishment in that 4th quarter
- Kirby’s big game experience has allowed him to feel momentum and take his swings (4th&5/onside) before it becomes predictable. As the sport continues to compress, that might be worth a couple wins a year
- Gunner’s ability to influence second/third level defenders off RPO/rollout/play-action looks when UGA gets the run going is really good. When gap scheme runs are hitting they become really hard to defend, especially when using the depth of the TE room to offset predictability.
- UGA has to fight temptation to go into a shell after an early turnover. Lot of wasted possessions after Gunner’s INT in that game.
- Zayden Walker’s bend off the edge is high level. Will be fun to watch in 2026
- Losing Bobo/Harris in those last two games is why Kirby and every other SEC coach are distressed by the CFP selection process and a 9-game SEC schedule
- Mike Bobo is the favorite punching bag of some but he was cooking in the fourth quarter of that game. Found ways to freeze defenders and create leverage after Texas keyed in on Branch and did a good job stuffing a lot of zone looks up front.
