One thing we do have going for us is Georgia rarely sees the spread. This will be a bit different for them and something they aren't used to. If Satterfield can push the pace and creat confusion amongst an inexperienced defense, I think that we can be successful offensively. 30+ is tough to predict but its not a complete farse either I don't think.
Florida, Auburn, Vanderbilt, and Mississippi State all run the Spread in the SEC. Georgia opens against Clemson. Our game is sandwiched between two of their major rivals who run versions of the spread. I don't think they are going to be unprepared for a spread offense.
That being said, I like the matchups of our WR's and their inexperienced new DB's. If our OL can hold off the rush long enough to let plays develop, or if Satterfield can mix the plays up in order to keep them honest....we might have a shot at some good offensive production. A few turnovers by the Dawgs would be helpful as well.
I believe our WR's can play with anyone, but their DB's won't be inexperienced by the time we play them. They'll have 8 games against top teams under their belt by that point. Our guys are capable, but they'll have to earn it.
No disagreement here. I'm just looking at the best shot we have for a ray of hope here. I do think our WR's can play against them. I'm more concerned about the OL.
