The impossible dream ...

Friday night's whuppin' of Arizona State was a solid win for Georgia in a lot of ways. Roughing up a good opponent on the road -- 3,000 miles of road -- on national television has to help the Dawgs with poll voters. More importantly, the way Georgia won was impressive. A balanced offense produced several big plays and kept ASU disoriented most of the night. Stack the run, Stafford and AJ Green killed them. Loosen up the linebackers in coverage and Moreno made them pay.
Stafford was sharp, working numerous receivers into the mix but never forgetting about this best down-the-field weapon, Green, who has the stuff to be the finest Georgia wideout since Hines Ward. (But can he also play quarterback?)
Unlike last week, the defense got pressure from a lot of different angles and from a lot of players. The blitzes took their toll, particularly in the second half.
The announcers jabbered about the Arizona heat getting to Georgia but didn't mention it in regard to Arizona wilting in the second half. You tell me who looked tired at the end of that game. Somebody might want to tell Musberger it gets pretty dang hot in Athens.
The O-line got better as the night went on-- always a good sign -- and the kicking game looked solid.
Nice win. Good team.
But, NOW is when things get tough!
Here comes Alabama.
