Something VERY positive re: Dawgs

[RockmartDawg]

It looks like RB Branson Robinson is at full speed and without any limitations, ready to go. I was watching a couple of videos, last night, where they were talking about this year's backfield, and were saying this will be the best UGA backfield since the 2017 season with Chubb, Michel, and freshman Swift.

Branson Robinson (5'10" 220 lbs Rs-Soph)
Roderick Robinson (6'0" 240 lbs Soph)
Trevor Etienne (5'9" 205 lbs Jr)

Just those three alone will be a juggernaut. There are other RBs that are also available, if need be. Shoot, we don't know what other RB may step forward through fall camp and the season.

Add to that... that stable of RBs will be running behind what is arguably the best O-Line in all of college football.

I'm going to take a wait and see approach to the OL this season. They've been a good deal better at pass blocking than run blocking lately. They struggled to run the ball when they most needed to against Bama. I do hope you're right but we may not really know for sure due to the QB they have and the WR room and TE's. All said, I don't care how they run the offense as long as they move the ball, make first downs, and score enough damned points to win.

6’ 240lbs is a big boy toting the rock!

Yep.  I think we are pretty dang good at four positions and have the depth to back it up.  We were significantly different on offense in 2023 when Truss was playing tackle instead of Mimms.  I'm not in to shaming our players, but he got a little razzing on X when he announced he'd be back.  I hope he uses that as a chip on his shoulder and motivates him to prove the world wrong.

I canecur with all of that. The same can be said about any of them, at any position, in fact. I think we ran the ball best when Matt Luke was the O-Line coach. I think technique was a big part of that.

That said... we're going to throw the ball, a lot. I don't see us as a run-heavy offense, regardless... maybe not too run heavy, anyway.. not when we have a QB the caliber of Beck and all of the receiving options we have, including the RBs.

I know one thing I can count on with our offense will be that whatever we are doing that is working well, Bobo will go away from it.

They struggled to run the ball vs bama due to Bozo playing a hurt Ladd and a Hurt Bowers lol. Saban told everyone soon as he realized that he stacked the box.

2024 might be the best OL in the history of the G.

I'm sure some will find some nits to pick tho.............
