I swear that the UGA Greyson Lambert is not the UVA Greyson Lambert.  Maybe this says more about Malcolm Mitchell, Nick Chubb, Georgia’s offensive line and their coaching staff, but last year Greyson Lambert had a 59.0 completion percentage, 1,632 passing yards and only 10 passing touchdowns on the season.  This year he has a completion percentage of 76.5, 733 passing yards and has already thrown for 7 touchdowns.

I hear you Ole Miss fans, I hear you!  His worst game came at Vanderbilt where he was 11-21 for only 116 yards.  My rebuttal?  He had 0 turnovers, he was on the road and his team won 31-14.  O yeah, and  he followed that performance up with 2 incomplete passes, in his next 2 GAMES!  Yes, it was South Carolina and Southern.  I get it.  But Lambert has gone 33 for 35 (24 out of 25 against South Carolina) and 5 passing touchdowns in those 2 games and has 0 interceptions on the year.  That’s near impossible against a practice defense, much less against actual competition.  I know I am using the term “actual competition” rather loosely there, but we will find out who Greyson Lambert really is this weekend when he takes on Alabama team that will be ready for him.  Greyson Lambert made into our SEC Heisman Hopefuls list, even if it is for only 1 week.
