I think that's a huge loss, and that they are going to be down more than I thought this year. I definitely don't see them going back to Atlanta, and our chances are much better than I thought.
I still don't trust that DD can pull it off and have a great year, but if he does USC won't be as big a fave as I thought previously. Title: Re: returning starters in the SEC Post by: Volznut on May 02, 2012, 01:58:21 EDT SC's offense will get Lattimore back, I suspect they will run it more. Their defense should be pretty good too, especially the DEs

Their defense should be pretty good too, especially the DEs I wasn't sure about him. Wasn't he in trouble for a while? Last year, with their backup QB I thought we showed signs of competing with them even starting our backup in his first game ever and with what were (IMO) some abysmal decisions by our coaching staff. So I do not fear them even though it's in Columbia. I guess without Alshon I would consider them the 4th toughtest opponent and move uga up a slot. It still will be a very tough game though.

Lattimore hurt his knee last year, I think. Title: Re: returning starters in the SEC Post by: Volznut on May 02, 2012, 09:54:39 EDT I wasn't sure about him. Wasn't he in trouble for a while?

No, he tore an ACL. Their QB Jeff Garcia was in constant trouble.

Yeah, I don't think I've ever heard anything about him being in trouble. From what I've heard he's always been a pretty solid citizen. Title: Re: returning starters in the SEC Post by: BanditVol on May 03, 2012, 04:52:59 EDT Yeah I was hazy on details and too lazy to look it up. It was in fact an ACL. Still, it sounds like they are going to be a bit one-dimensional on offense. A running-style QB and top notch RB. What has happened to sos? LOL!
