X Factors & Predictions
Aug 28, 2021, 5:49 PM

Who are your x-factors that put us over the top next Saturday? I couldn’t choose one, so I chose three:
1. Xavier Thomas. This is his moment to shine. I think XT gets 2.5 sacks with a forced fumble to remind the nation who he is.
2. Ajou Ajou. UGA knows what’s been said about this kid, but they can’t prepare for the physicality he’s gonna bring. I think he goes for 100+ & scores once on either a back-shoulder fade or jump ball in the end zone.
3. Every CB not named Andrew Booth. UGA knows not to try Booth, but will make the mistake of thinking they took the only solid CB left on our roster. I think one of our supposedly lesser CBs gets a pick, maybe more than one, & shows the nation our secondary is better than expected.
Final Score: 38-17, Clemson. SPOT THE BALL!

Sounds good all depends on O-line if he has time to pass. I think we win but
Georgia d is strong.

Like ur choices
I’m going to be pulling for our center....whoever it may be. Probably Brockhorst
Think XT and Murphy will bring it from the edge and keep JT out of sync.
Go Tigers

Haven't done any research, but here are my x-factors with the thought that our O-line has at least a decent (not great) game.
Possible offensive x-factors:
DJ running the ball
A WR besides Justyn Ross stepping up
A TE or RB stepping up in the receiving game
Will Shipley
Possible defensive x-factors:
Will officials permit blatant holding by GA O-line?
DE besides Bresee, XT or Murphy stepping up
Possible special teams x-factors:
A+ punting game
Will Shipley

WR- can Ajou Ajou and Nagata make some plays ... I think EJ is as good as Ross...
TE- will we see a return of the receiving tight end? We have a deep pool of good ones there.
O-Line- HUGE in this game, seems to be some concerns as they move players around, will they keep their assignments.
RB- Shipley has gotten alot of praise over the summer... can he provide a different look? Is Lynn-J going to step up? Watch him in pass blocking especially... Mafah and Pace, Dabo has been talking them up too...
Defense? Secondary and Linebackers... can Skalski keep his head up? Literally he's the QB on D... Turner and Zanders? or Turner and Makuba or Turner and Charleston? at Safety... Booth and who at corner? D line is deep and solid.
Special Teams... one more year with Potter and Spiers... and we have Swanson who is supposed to be really good as well...
Georgia's O-line vs Clemson D-Line ... if they give Daniels time or is he going to be in a hurry the whole game?
How bad do they want it?

I think Trenton Simpson is a physical freak, if it all comes together and he makes that big leap, I think he could dominate games similar to Isaiah. I think his development could be a big game changer, and his level of play could make this a great defense or an all time great, historical defense.
