Presented by dognation.com. This is Dog Nation Daily, the daily podcast for Georgia Bulldogs fame.

Here's your host, Brandon Adam. I want to talk about the Georgia defense here for a minute. It's going to lead us to in a couple of minutes. The over-under projection, you know, we've invited folks to participate in our show this week. We did this last week by I put out some numbers, and I simply said, these are my projections, kind of based on, you know, my own proprietary formula, if you want to call that. And I invited you to say, would you take the over or the under when it comes to, you know, this particular thing here, you know, whatever that might be.

0:47.3

Yesterday, for instance, we did offensive points per game.

0:50.3

I took the over.

0:52.3

One of the Dog Nation Daily listeners that we read out loud yesterday, he also took the over. One of the Dog Nation Daily listeners that we read out loud yesterday,

0:56.6

he also took the over. Some people not necessarily taking that over for Georgia give this

1:01.9

upcoming season. And so we're going to doing that with a lot of these things. And a couple of

Robinson was a former five star.

1:33.3

He's now, you know, almost he's going on two years removed from high school.

1:36.9

So his recruiting ranking doesn't probably matter as much as it used to.

1:40.7

But in addition to being like a former five star, based on his individual player

rating, Robinson, according to like, say, 24-7 sports and things like that, is one of the

1:50.0

highest rated recruits that George's ever brought in to the extent that you take that seriously.

1:55.6

The star rating matters to me, the individual player rating, I don't know that I put quite as

1:59.4

much stock into that, but you probably already know this. As a recruit, Robinson's individual player rating was very,

2:08.4

very, very high. But that only complicates the conversation even more when we say, well,

2:14.8

you really haven't seen a lot from Ellis Robinson on the football field as
