  Speaker 1: Welcome back to sec football addiction presented by prize picks.
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: We're all new users who play a $ 5 lineup using
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: code H M a get $ 150 in lineups instantly. If
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: they win UGA put up insane numbers last week, Utah
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: put up insane numbers last week against Arkansas. And so
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Utah's opponent will play that team in the sec that
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: also put up crazy numbers.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: I sec play opens up.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: And so I think it's worth talking about, but this
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: game is, doesn't seem to offer a lot. Is there
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: anything here that you have your eye on between Georgia
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: and Arkansas, or is it literally just how many points
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: does Kirby Smart want to score?
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, there is like a path for Arkansas to
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: keep it close, but you look at what both teams
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: have done so far this year. I mean, yes, Arkansas
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: has gone and played Utah. Georgia hasn't, but Georgia has
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: the best scoring offense in the SEC.
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: Arkansas is the 16th.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: Georgia has 216 more yards per game on offense. They've
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: allowed 34 less total points through these first two weeks.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: So yeah, like I said, Georgia did not go on
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: the road to play Utah. But if you just watch
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: both of these teams, it's very clear that there's a
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: massive gap in how they're both operating. And that's not
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: a shock, right? So that's not meant to be a
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: dig at Arkansas. Just first year for Silverfield versus Kirby
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Smart and Georgia. trying to still punch back after a
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: couple of disappointing postseasons, really want to show the country
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: that they're still one of the top dogs, no pun intended,
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: in the entire country.
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: So there's a big gap between these two teams.
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: And yes, it's in Fayetteville, road game in the SEC,
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: but it's kind of hard to get super excited about
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: Arkansas in this game just because of how good Georgia
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: has looked.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: You just said that. That was a great segue. But
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: you just talked about how good Georgia has looked. Admittedly,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: they haven't played a team that is even close to
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: their seal level. And I don't little, little bump up
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: this week, but still not super great from that perspective.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: What have they done though?
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Like, what can you take away from those two games
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: that they have already played? That gives you some confidence
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: that man, yeah, they're, they're still one of the best team. Like,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: have they done things well that you've seen that you're like,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: all right, this is what I was expecting.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Or is that too tough to tell against the competition
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: they've played?
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: A little bit of both, right, because they are playing, obviously,
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: like I said, weaker teams where you can't, like, gleam. Like,
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: they'll be doing this all year long. But they were
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: doing the right things. I mean, they're running the ball
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: incredibly well. They have 8.2 yards per carry as a
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: team through those first two games. Their defense has been
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: absolutely suffocating. I mean, they've won those first two games
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: by a combined score of 133-23. Like, that's a pretty
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: good margin no matter who you're playing. So you've seen
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: both sides of the ball play like you expect a
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: Kirby-smart team to play. You've seen both those fronts be
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: incredibly more physical, just incredibly dominant. over a weaker opponent,
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: which frankly, a couple of other top 10 teams, you
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: haven't seen them do that against weaker fronts, right? So
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: being able to see Georgia trenches do that has been
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: really encouraging. Just everything about Georgia that you expected to
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: be there has been there, right? They haven't really had
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: any surprising questions pop up. Gunner Stockton has looked good
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: in just like three total quarters of action so far.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: The running backs have looked very good. The defense has
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: looked incredibly violent and fast. You have a couple of
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: skilled players who are maybe showing up, Sokopi White-Helton, has
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: a greater receiver. Tyreek Green's actually a safety, but he's
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: in some pretty good spots as a return man. It
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: just seems like they have all this talent, once again, surprise,
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: Georgia has talent, and the way they're utilizing it has
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: been incredibly strong, and they've really been playing to their
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: strengths so far in these first two games, which has
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: been really confidence-inspiring to see in these first two weeks.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: They've outscored opponents 133-23.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: They've got to have the best scoring differential in college
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: football when you think about they're plus 110 right now.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: I will ask this.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Is there anything you're seeing from them that does give
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: you a little bit of pause? We talk about how
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: thin the margins are at the top, like maybe the
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: top seven teams in the country right now, we would
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: say maybe any of them could win the national championship.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: And then I don't know if we can go much
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: further than that top seven, but it has only been
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: two weeks. Is there anything, you know, is there any,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: I don't even know if glaring is the right word,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: but is there anything that kind of stands out that
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: is either a concern or just unproven to you so far?
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: I brought up how they've had some explosive plays, whether
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: it was White Hilton, that receiver, or Tyra Green from
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: punt return.
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: And this is Kirby's favorite thing.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: He won't say this, but I still don't know how
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: much of an explosive threat that they have in that
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: passing game. Gunnar Stockton is a great quarterback, but he's
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: a game manager in a good sense. It's not an
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: insult to him. He does everything correctly. He will not
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: make a mistake. He's the perfect guy to play quarterback
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: for a Kirby smart team. And I look at that
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: receiver room and I'm like, I mean, do you have
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: a guy who you know on third and 13? Like,
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: I'm going to throw you the ball, and I like
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: the chances of that. Now, that's not a problem when
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: you're playing those first two games. And it shouldn't be
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: when you're at Arkansas. But when they play Alabama, when
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: they play Ole Miss, like, you're going to be in
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: spots where you might be down by 10. And you're
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: going to have to have that. You're probably going to
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: have to have, at least, that downfield threat, that quick
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: strike ability. I'm not sure if they have that yet
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: against high-caliber competition. Now, obviously, they have these weeks to
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: develop that, to find the receiver that they can trust
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: to go get downfield and to find those plays they
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: want to run there. But that's kind of been my
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: question all offseason. The pass rush has looked better. The
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: D-line has looked like it was much improved. That was
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: kind of their second biggest question coming into this year.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: So I would still say the only thing I still
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: want to see answered is against an SEC defense, do
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: you have that receiver who can go take the top
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: off and go score a 70-yard touchdown?
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: What is the thing that Arkansas does the best to...
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: potentially give them a chance to stay in this game.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Like how, how does Arkansas make this a game past
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: two quarters? Hey guys, I'll get right back to chatting
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: with Will, but first I want to ask you to

  Speaker 1: playoffs happen. We will certainly get there with you guys.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Appreciate that. Now back to Will.
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: There's really like two keys. So Quincy Rhodes Jr.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: their edge rusher, he's probably their best player on defense.
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: He's an alien of a build.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: He kind of has to pop. He's a really good athlete.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: He hasn't been producing super great in these first two games,
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: but he is the caliber of athlete where even against
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: Georgia's off to tackles, he can probably get into the
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: backfield a couple of times. So can you get to Gunnar?
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: Can you get your hands on him? Can you knock
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: the ball out and get a strip sack? Like if
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: we're going to keep this close, I think very specifically,
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: you kind of need Quincy Rhodes to punch the ball
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: out in the pocket once or twice. and give your
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: team a short field. And on the other side, you
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: have a pretty good one-two at running back in Cam
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: Settles and Braylon Russell. Those two guys need to be great.
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: If you're able to run the ball with Arkansas, that
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: does a few things. Obviously, you can move the ball,
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: you can score points. It will also take time off
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: the clock, and it will mean fewer overall possessions in
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: this game. The fewer possessions that happen in this game
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: for both teams the variance of outcome expands, and that
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: gives you a better chance to come out and win
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: this game. Because over 100 drives, Georgia will beat you.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: Over 15 drives, maybe Arkansas has the edge. So they
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: need to be able to run the ball, not just
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: to establish their offense, but also to shorten the game,
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: increase the variability of outcome, and give them a better
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: chance to actually be keeping up with Georgia. Because KJ
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: Jackson passing the ball to those receivers, probably not good enough.
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: They're going to have to establish the run and really
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: control the game if they want a chance.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Who has stood out the most to you for Georgia?
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Like, as they've been putting up so many points, holding
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: teams down so well defensively, like, do you have a
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: player on each side of the ball that stood out
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: the most through two weeks?
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, offensively, it's been kind of hard because they've
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: been spreading it out so well, right? Kirby's done a
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: really good job of getting every playmaker involved. I mean,
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: Nate Frazier, the running back one, he's looked very good.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: He has over 12 yards per carry in these first
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: few games.
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: He's just looked so violent, so physical.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: He really is one of the better runners in the
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: SEC who gets kind of overlooked because of, you know,
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: Ahmad Hardy, Kiwan Lacey, Jaden Ball. He's almost just as
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: good as those guys. And defensively, you've already seen, what's
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: the number? They already have five sacks as a team now.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: They didn't hit the five sack mark as a team
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: until way into the year last year. So, you know,
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: guys like Dean and guys like Lennon Jr. on the
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: defensive line, they've looked very strong. They've looked very encouraging already.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: Gabe Harris also has a sack. He was one of
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: those returning stars already. So you're seeing guys on the
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: defensive front who you were kind of waiting to pop.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: You're seeing them pop early on, which is a very
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: promising sign for this defense.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: 24 and a half points here. Um, it is on
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: the road.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: It's a huge, I don't remember many 24 and a
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: half point spreads on the road in the sec.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: Now I know we are talking about the standard bearer.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Of the sec and then the team that might be
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: at the very bottom with a brand new coach.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: So I, I get it right.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: But I don't, I don't remember very many 24 and
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: a half point spreads for a road sec game.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Like that is wild to think about. Um, where's your
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: lead in this one?
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: I mean, like it could just be like 41, 17.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: And if you bet Georgia, you're just screwed, even though
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: they crushed the entire game. So I do want to
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: stay away from the numbers, how big it is, like
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: you said, but I don't think this will be competitive.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: I mean, maybe because of how Georgia will play, which
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: is physical run the ball, just by nature of that,
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: it'll be 14 or 17 to three and a half.
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: You're like, Oh, that's kind of interesting, but it really
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: won't be. If you've been watching the game, Georgia will roll,
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: The number is too big for me to really make
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: a play on it, but I have no worries about
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: the Bulldogs in this spot at all. Yeah.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: It feels like how much does Kirby want to win
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: by and how much does he want to go get
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: ready for Oklahoma next week, which will be a huge game.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Obviously Oklahoma's margin for error is very small. Google AI
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: tells me that the largest spread in the last 10
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: years was Alabama at Vandy in 2017.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: I don't know if we can really not know, no
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: shots at Nashville. I know that's where you're at.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: I don't really consider.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: Vandy a road game. I'm sure there were more Bama
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: fans there.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: It probably was not in 2017. Yeah.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Vandy's doing a great job now.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: But 2017, I would imagine that there was more crimson
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: in that stands in those stands. Um, but yeah, pretty,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: pretty uncommon for a team to be this big of
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: a dog at home in the, uh, in the Southeastern conference.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: So yeah, give me Georgia to roll and not that
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Kirby cares about the spread, but, uh, if he wants
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: to cover the spread, they'll cover the spread. That's kind
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: of how I would, uh, how I would look at it.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: So we'll Thomas tailgate talk sec. You can also find
