Re: Vandy opens as a 31-point underdog to Georgia
we need to 1) not get injured and 2) not lose hope after the game.
we need to "look past" UGA and remember that there is a a winnable game the following Saturday that we need to focus on.

UAB beat J-State 31-0 and J-State won at Florida State.
UAB has 41 transfers. They are "one of those."

Re: Vandy opens as a 31-point underdog to Georgia
Honestly, games like these are why I'm not more into college football.
Let's be honest, UGA could probably set the score today during their practice, and just go about trying to meet it.
If they want to beat us by 31, they probably can.
If they want to beat us by 51, they probably can.
Just a matter of when they decide to ease off the gas pedal.

On the other hand, this is kind of how people were talking when undefeated Alabama rolled in as an overwhelming favorite to play an 0-3 Vanderbilt team in 1969. And rolled back down I-65 as 14-10 losers.

Oddsmakers definitely see something in us that I don’t.
I have the same reaction as last week when line opened at 12. Just seems like a lock.

Re: Vandy opens as a 31-point underdog to Georgia
Are we assuming that the oddsmakers are or are not taking into account how hacked the Oogas were last year when we cancelled the game due to Covid.
If I'm not supposed to mention this, let me know and I'll quickly delete.

Smart mentioned it in his presser along with the inference the stadium would be full if Dawg fans ,- so you can mention it, I suppose. I hope Bama beats UGa again in Atlanta this year. They need some humility.FayetteDore wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 8:00 pm Are we assuming that the oddsmakers are or are not taking into account how hacked they were last year when we cancelled the game due to Covid.
