I still do fear UGA. They have better talent than us at more positions. And sometimes, getting a new coach can ignite that. See also: Urban Meyer at OSU. No, I dont think UGA will be world beaters, but they will probably beat us. I think Florida is the team to beat in the East, as UT will once again crap the bed.

As for Lock, he wasnt ready last year. And the OL did him no favors. I dont think its impossible for him to leave after 3, but I also dont think the offense will rebound all that much this year. I dont think we will be in the top 80 teams as far as offensive production goes. And because of that, Lock could be seen as a flash in the pan if we have a balling offense in '17. Regardless of that, Lock does have all of the tools they are looking for. And I think he is taking his job more seriously. So I think he turns it around this season.

Please explain why this message is being reported.
