Latest From The UGA Camp.. O-line not looking so hot..



UGA Offensive Line In Deep Doo Doo..

Richt attributes the offense's woes to lack of experience along the offensive line.


"We are having some issues up front," he said. "With Chester Adams out, that did not help, so we had two true redshirt freshman tackles and a redshirt freshman guard. Scott Haverkamp sprained his ankle early on and he is out, so we had another true freshman (Justin Anderson) guard.


"We had a senior center and four freshmen, three of which are true freshmen with the one unit. The second unit was Vince Vance who is a sophomore and everybody else was freshmen. It was musical chairs."


Despite the look of being loaded on paper, the fact that so many of Georgia's offensive linemen have little or no experience is troubling.


"It is very rare that you should have true freshmen out there, but we may be playing three or four," Richt said. "It is tough because there is no veteran competition. We have two seniors, one junior, one sophomore, and the rest are freshmen. Next year we have one senior, and the year after that we have one senior."


In the meantime, getting the first unit enough work together to build unity is the main concern.
"Chester will be out for a while, Haverkamp is probably out for a while, and that in itself just about guarantees that they won't be a group of five working together this week," said Richt.
