Who you takin'; A&M or Georgia?

The Bulldogs got tested last week when they took on what I think is a highly overrated Auburn team on the road, but Kirby Smart’s team hung on for a 21-14 win to wrap up the SEC Least crown and remain in the CFP conversation. Georgia has now won four in a row since suffering their only loss of the season and now knows for sure that they will play in the SEC Championship Game.
If the LegHumpers want to remain in the conversation, they can’t lose again. Even an SEC championship likely won't be enough to get them in the CFP if they lose one of their remaining regular-season games.
As for the Aggies, they head to Athens on the heels of a four-game winning streak after a rather sluggish 30-6 win over the DirtPeckers last weekend. A&M is currently 7-3 with losses to Clemson, Alabama, and Auburn. A&M’s brutal schedule continues with road games against Georgia and LSU the final two weeks of the regular season.
This feels to me like a trap game for Georgia. The HydrantChasers are coming off an emotional rivalry game and might have their guard down after clinching the SEC Last. That could be a problem against Texas A&M, who is better than any SEC Last team Georgia has played this year with the possible exception of Florida; another team that I think is vastly overrated.
If the Aggies can find some semblance of a rushing attack against a pretty solid CrotchSniffer defense, it’ll put Mond in a better position. Mond has quality receivers around him and has played some of his best football over the last month. Given the quality defensive teams he’s faced this season, Mond won’t be intimidated by the Georgia defense and should be able to create some explosive plays.
That said, I think the key will be the Texas A&M defense and whether they can slow down the Georgia rushing attack. At times, the Aggies have fared well against the run but certainly not consistently. If the Aggies can force Fromm and Georgia’s receivers to do the heavy lifting, they should prevent the Mutts from dominating the game and building a comfortable lead, but that will require containing the Georgia rushing game.
UGaY has played some of their best football since their loss to South Carolina, but any team that loses at home as a 4 TD favorite to uof5c is subject to getting beat on any given weekend. The 13 point spread is enticing but I like A&M straight-up in this one.
What say ye !?!?!

Georgia by at least 10 points!
A&M can't just pass it every down. Georgia is stout against the run.

Is the A&M punter better than ours?

Yes, counting the bounces. I'll take A&M.

Do you remember the TAMU game at all?

It was not even close, and never in doubt.
Mond could do nothing against us. UGA defense is statistically better than ours supposedly so I don’t see how you could imagine TAMU having much of a chance here. They are the epitome of mediocre.
Now, next week Vs. #53 Defense, there’s a chance. This week Vs. #1 Defense? Not unless UGA ****t’s the bed again like Vs Carolina.
A&M is just not on that level. Luckily Jimbo gets an Uber Cupcake schedule in 2020.

Georgia leads Clemson in: points allowed a game: 10.5 compared to Clemson at 10.7.
Total yards per game it's all Clemson: 238.2 compared to Georgia at 267.2.
Georgia defense is really stout against the run only giving up 755 yards on the ground all year. But, it seems you can pass on them. 1, 913. For reference sake Clemson has given up 1, 413. And at last check there were somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 - 11 ACC QB's in the NFL(so at least we get to get tested by good players in that aspect).

I'd say that's a pretty good write-up on it

I hope A&M wins it, but I think the leghumpers win this one by at least 2 TDs. They can still out-talent teams like TAMU, and even though neither coach is a very good gameday coach I think Georgia's RBs and their game manager QB will be enough to carry the day.

I actually think A&M has a better chance against LSU than Jawja.
A&M actually has a very stout (6th nationally) pass defense and LSU might struggle with Mond (depending on the version you see). On the other had, I think Georgia could just rush it past A&M without issue. Then again, Kirby could just call fake punts and Jawja could jawja. If Fromm runs into issues with a D, A&M would be it.

Just remember Bama plays Auburn next week and I believe Tua's little brother will take over sometime during that game as the starter. Mac Jones could only muster 3 points against a very bad Miss St. team. So depending on when Tua's brother takes over is if Bama will even beat Auburn. Auburn is the toughest defense Bama will face this year. If they can't score but 3 points against Miss St. They may end up getting shut out against Auburn.

Jawja. A&M has been majorly disappointing this year.

Bimbo is certainly not a QB whisperer, as Mond appears to have actually gotten worse, year over year.

Going to be a steady rain...

If you watched the UGA Kentucky game, it was a downpour and completely took away the passing game. UGA's best reciver is hurt, so it will be similar.
If Mond can protect he ball and get the short pass game going, they have a shot. Jimbo loves the short pass game.
I think the rain helps A&M.

I got A&M and the points. Hope they win out right but I doubt it. Mond sucks.

I think it will rely heavily on the play of Mond

A&M should be able to give him time. We’ll have to see how he’s throwing the ball. He seems wildly inconsistent.
They can certainly beat the Dawgs if Mond plays well. Maybe a 15% chance ?
