So yesterday I had an inner debate as to whether I ever recapped the Auburn win here in this space. At first I was sure that I did, but I was wrong. You see, I had my scheduled colonoscopy on Monday. So between the awful prep on Sunday and the recuperation on Monday afternoon, any writing slipped away like a drip from the anesthesia line. So here's my look back at the win on the plains...
It was a fumble. Use your stored up toilet paper abuurn fans to soak up those tears, because even if it had been a touchdown instead, you would've lost 20-17. We owned y'all when the game mattered. Kick rocks.
Need more amateur analysis, here is the latest 4th & 3 Dudes podcast. Now, onto Ole Miss.
May be our toughest test yet. This new quarterback Kiffin has under behind center is a legit threat through the air (1200+ yards and 7 TDs with just one INT) and on the ground (61 rush attempts for an average of 4.61 yards each).
In short, the defense can't take 29+ min off to start this one. And the offense has to emerge from the locker room in the first half as well.
It's the middle of October. At this point I know only two things about the 2025 Georgia Bulldogs tackle football team. 1) We are a good, not great team. Sure, we'll get better as the season progresses. We've seen that every year under Smart. How much better? That's a much harder question. And 2) We will fight until the end. We're a team that continues to mirror their head coach's fire in the belly. We saw it first hand Saturday night in Auburn. While the tigers rolled over in the wake of their coach's poor mouthing, them Dawgs was hell.
So who knows what we'll see on Saturday against the Rebels. Protect the football and we've got a great chance to pull off another great win. Disrupt their quarterback enough and we may see Kiffin start to play QB roulette.
I just love watching this team fight. Go Dawgs!
