Keys to the Game

The main thing this week is that we need to look like Georgia, and we need to make them look like Vanderbilt.

Brandon Miller, Marcus Washington and Thomas Brown are out, and Mikey Henderson is questionable. Depth could be an issue, so we're going to need to come out strong.

If we see the following things, I think we'll win today.

On Offense
1. Knocking Vanderbilt back on offense coming off the ball.
2. A steady, and productive, dose of Knowshon Moreno and Kregg Lumpkin out of the backfield.
3. Enough protection to allow Stafford to step into his throws.

On Defense
1. The defensive line putting pressure on the quarterback.
2. The linebackers shedding blocks and making tackles.
3. All defenders taking the proper angles on plays.

On Special Teams
1. Kick off deep.
2. Block for the punter.
3. Thomas Flowers (above) stepping in admirably for Mikey Henderson at punt returner.

If we can't do these things, we could be in for a long night. See Vandy last year...
