3. Special Teams- Mostly extra points. Its going to be a close game and something as simple as a PAT could alter the strategy or how the game unfolds down the stretch. Its pretty bad when kicking an extra point is an area of concern in a 5 vs. 6 game.
2. Blocking Taylor and Clowney- Offensive line has overachieved up to this point but has not seen anything like they will from Carolina. Theus was not all that great against Tennessee and was dreadful versus Mizzou. Gates is still fairly new at the Tackle spot. I assume Carolina's nine other defenders will focus on stopping the run and letting these two guys worry about one thing and that's getting after Murray.
1. Lattimore running wild- Two of his best games have come against Georgia. I have a feeling they've been trying to coddle him in preparation for this four game stretch. Georgia's defense was not great stopping Tennessee's lackluster running game and I'm sure SOS noticed.

3. It amazes me how a guy can kick it from 50+ yards dead center and BEERS the hell out of an XP.
2. I expect to see TE's staying in a lot to help block which sucks because we like to use them in the passing game so much. Gurshall has been great running the football but their pass blocking (as well as Hicks/Hall) will be just as critical here. I used to get pissed when CMR wouldn't play freshmen RB's because they couldn't pick up the blocking schemes but a missed assignment in this game could get Murray killed.
1. No question Lattimore's been held back so far. SOS will lean on him though with the game on the line and he showed that in the 2nd half against Kentucky last weekend. I don't see him getting 40 carries like he has in the past but he'll definitely get his touches. Saying we have to tackle better than we have the past two meetings is an understatement of epic proportions.
