As much as I hate Tech, I would rather lose to Tech and win the SEC. But..I would rather just have them both. Go Dawgs.

I want them both. One game at a time. I can't imagine this team looking past Tech.

Looks like Crowell should be able to play.

Not sure what team you have been watching but that would not be true. Tech's defense is not as good as Kentucky's. Tech really needs help and if we go into that game and turn the ball over like we did against Kentucky then they will have shot. We definitely need Crowell to be back but Thomas could probably carry us against Tech if we had to. The key is we need some type of serious running game. That is how the passing games works so well off the play action pass. Otherwise, we need to do something like screen passes, which I don't understand why we did not do that against Kentucky. If we push down the field and score TDs then it will make it very tough on Tech and they will have to keep up. Our OL is huge so they need to do against Tech what we did not do against Kentucky and that is run the hell out of the football. Running the ball will take time off the clock and wear them down so that in the 4th quarter you pick up 10 yards carry like we did against Auburn.

The other thing we need to watch with tech and it will be the key - they cut / chop block and will have to given our distinct size difference with our DL to their OL. If we can continue to shut down the center of the field and force them outside and our LBs can contain - we will do a pretty good job of shutting Tech down. I would plan on a 8 man front - play man to man and have a spy on the QB in case he runs. Put Jarvis on the QB and hit him every time he touches the ball.

I'm right there with ya! I expect Murray and the offense to be much sharper this week and cut out the turnovers.
