More Willie
In the history of Georgia football, the Dawgs had never given up 35+ points in 3 straight conference games....until now!! I don't want to pile on Martinez, but UGA's defense is in trouble. The fundamentals have gone to shit. If an offensive lineman gets a block on Rennie, it's at least a 15 yard gain. They are constantly out of position, lined up wrong, or take the wrong angle. I don't doubt that Willie is a good position coach, and if he would have had the opportunity to be DC when BVG was, maybe the results would have been similar. But in the SEC today, the coordinators are better than ever, playcalling is better than ever, and Willie is getting schooled on a weekly basis. I could say the same about Bobo, that this isn't the conference to learn on the job, but I think the O-Line cluster buys him a break.

I'm willing to give Bobo a big break right now because we've seen so many moments of brilliance from him since he took over the OC job. And because our run of bad luck with the Oline is epic this year. Yeah, his trick plays are mind-bogglingly stupid and his redzone playcalling has been suspect this year at times, but we havent' seen anything like what we're dealing with from Willie. Yesterday's 5 TDs add to my point.
