Georgia-Florida: A Family Feud

Well, my brother, (Dermott really is my brother - See Dermott's article Florida-Georgia... A Rivalry) the proof will be known Saturday.  Injuries for Georgia have been pretty devastating, agreed,  but... every cloud has silver britches - Chapas was always an after thought behind Southerland,  take the Big Scott out of the equation for a few months and you see a boy FB turn into a monster FB man.  Now we have two, not one of the best in the nation (quoting Gary Danielson).  Then you look at Danelle Ellerbe,  behind him you have a few plays for Gamble,  now we have not one but two crazy LBs that are huge play makers.  Scary movie??? Who knew Gamble had it in him for two interceptions for two TD, tieing NCAA record.

Then lets talk about who Stafford tosses to now?  Oh,  gosh,  why don't I try this new guy cause he is taking the place of someone else that's hurt (Aaron White).  And then Mathew goes - Oh,  hey I don't have a play,  well,  I'll toss it out of bounds,  opps,  Khris Durham says,  "I'll get that one".  Oh, thats right he was injured.  Demiko Who,  yeah he is a Goodman!!!.  Now that is Scary

So my brother wants to put no credence in what happened in the past?  That's why he quotes "Florida won 15 out of the last 18 games, etc...".  Well I for one, am focusing on the present.  Not injuries of the past (both major injured players lost early in season).

Which team has the momentum?  Let's see UF 63 - KY 5 (a decimated team with half of the team on the injured list) Deland Highschool Football team could have beaten KY.  UGA 52 - LSU 38 at Death Valley with major key players out (Ellerbe and Chandler).  So much for momentum - unless of course you are talking about "style points".  I'd say thats some kind of style beating up on a team that is obviously beat after the first quarter.  UGA and UF are pretty even except, we got our ass kicked by Alabama (2) and you got your ass rubbed by Ole Miss (ranked, what, oh that's right not ranked). 

What about players out of rotation?  Let me give you rotation: 
Defense:
Rennie Curran, Darryl Gamble, Reshad Jones, Asher Allen, Akeem Dent, Prince Miller, CJ Byrd, Geno Atkins, Bryan Evans, Corey Irvin, Demarcus Dobbs, Vance Cuff, Jeromy Lomax, Justin Houstin, Jarius Wynn, Ramarcas Brown, Rod Battle, Darius Dewberry, Kade Weston, Dannell Ellerbe.  20 well seasoned defensive players.  Lots of fresh legs there my bro.
Offense:
 Mathew Stafford, AJ Green, Massaquoi, Michael Moore, Kenneth Harris, Kris Durham, Demiko Goodman, Shaun Chapas, Aron White,  Caleb King, Shaun Chapas, Brandon Southerland, Muzenmaier.  Brian Mimbs, Drew Butler, Blair Walsh.  Chris Davis, Clint Boling, Ben Jones, Zach Renner, Bruce Figgins, Cordy Glenn,   Justin (Bean) Anderson.

These players have all been in the last three games (except Dannelle Ellerbe).  So there is plenty of fresh leg rotation.
