You’re going to think “sad” when A.J. Green and Joe cox combine for 4 scores in the first 30 minutes, and over 500 yards pitch and catch all game. Sorry defense!

… pretty sad when you realize that your own team is horrible so you troll the best team in the states sports page looking for opportunities to post your meaningless and insignificant thoughts. DAWG fans are the most pathetic pups in the world, someone needs to open a shelter and start up a suicide hot-line for them this year. THWG!!!

Here’s how bad Georgia actually is so far this year:
OFFENSE DEFENSE
Points/Game 27.1 (102nd) 26.1 (152nd)
Total Yards/Gm 344.2 (143rd) 332.0 (93rd)
Rush Yards/Gm 131.2 (148th) 120.9 (81st)
Pass Yards/Gm 213.0 (113th) 211.1 (137th)
So just HOW did UGA get that #49 ranking?

Should be a fun game Saturday. All the Dawgs in Athens Tailgating and getting Drunk Watching the Tech Game hoping Duke will win. Then getting their drunk butts kicked by Clemson without a lake. UGA fans you gota love them. Scouting had Derrick Morgan as a mid fisrt round pick and the first DE taken in this years Draft. Hope we don’t have a bunch of Juniors deciding to turn pro after this year. I hope Diesel Dwyer stills wants to finish his 4 years too. This Whole team back mext year would be great.

Pi$$onaDawg , I think the whole team coming back from next year would be better than great… I think it would mean a National Championship. The offense is a juggernaut and the experience on defense would get it up to a respectable level. If we win out, which I think we will, we’ll have a very high preseason ranking so all we’ll need is a perfect season. The only way to improve on a 1 loss season is to go undefeated.
Go Jackets!!!!

I feel like Joe Cox would hit Mario Butler, Rashad Reid, and Morgan Burnett for more scores then AJ Green. how many turnovers do you dawgs have? I thought we the ones running the turnover-prone offense.

NRE@gt, we will see. But your defense is pathetic. Vandy and Mississipi State ran buckshot over you. Our record may not show it, but I promise our offensive line and skill players are much better. We won’t have trouble scoring 40 or more points if our defense can make a couple of stops.

If you have to rely on your dogs, you are gonna be let down big time. GT hangs at least half a hundred this time on UGA.

Out of all the possible juniors thinking about going pro, losing Derrick Morgan to the draft would be the biggest blow to the team. He constantly fights off double teams and is still somehow 2nd in the NCAA in sacks. He is the only pass rush and disruptive force we have on the d-line. He single handedly put us in position to beat fsu and wake with sacks and forced fumbles. Without him, our defense would be almost nonexistent. I would hate to see Dwyer, Thomas, or Burnett go pro next year, but the void they would be leaving at their respective positions isn’t close to the hole we would have on the d-line if Morgan decides to leave. We have enough depth at the B back, WR, and Rover to stay competitive next year without those guys. The d-line has no depth and no experience. We will be forced to play sophs, redshirt frosh, or true frosh at Morgan’s spot. I hope none of them leave, but it is tough to pass up first round money and be set for life. Let’s worry about the dookies for now.
Go Jackets. Beat duke

Another 51-7 doesn’t seem likely. But I’m telling you, there’s a beat-down coming, and The Dawgs are going to be the ones doing the beating.

big south georgia dawg, why are you so confident that you are going to beat us down. Do you not remeber the second half of last years game. Get ready to see that kind of offensive production for the whole game this year. By the way didn’t last years team have 2 first round draft picks?

why bother? it’s always the same prophets who predicted the big win over ut-maybe their crystal ball left the tech off of tennesee, or was confused about which Tech they were supposed to beat..

Duke is a much improved team with a really, really good QB. However I see no problem beating them this weekend. I hope Auburn beats the crap, out of Georgia.

Little North Pup, you are calling our D sorry? If you score 40, and I bet you dont, we will probably still win by 24, because 14 of those 40 will be TD throws from Cox to Burnett and Butler.

Burdell: Good catch. Oghobaase is an All-ACC talent who would very much help them in their efforts to clog up the middle for our ground attack. He’ll be nearly as big a loss on the defensive side of the ball as Lewis would be on the offensive side.

ATTENTION GEORGIA TECH STUDENTS, ALUMS AND FANS!!
We are currently researching new and innovative ways of luring our fan base to our games. We are the only top 10 program that is unable to sellout our games. This continues to be a lingering problem for us, and sadly there are several high school stadiums in the state that are bigger than ours. Here are our ideas and we would love your feedback. What would it take to get YOU in our lovely and historic stadium?
A. Free coke and hotdog per ticket
B. 2 free cokes and hotdogs per ticket
C. Free kissing booth with real life females inside
D. Free Playboys in the programs
E. Free “I brag I went to GT even though I’m not an engineer” t-shirts
Thanks so much!!! Looking forward to the results!!!

HA, interesting that BigSouthGADAWG is so in-tuned with tech’s defense, yet he doesn’t mention his outstanding WM defense that basically just lays down every game like a whipped DAWG. I’d take Wommack ANY FREAKIN DAY OF THE WEEK over goober Willie Martinez. We’ll see who is thoroughly embarrassed later this month!

I guess I forgot to look at the one team both uga and tech played this year…vandy.
how many points did you guys give up to the worst team in the sec? exactly…
and you thought you guys were legit. get out of here you freakin college football rookie.

yea, 2007 season was also a long time ago. uga hasn’t won a bcs game since!
o, wait…..we never have
maybe this year if we can beat a lousy clemson team and walk into the least appreciated bcs game (orange). gotta love that ACC tie-in. hopefully the real powerhouses in the acc (va tech, miami, fsu) will step up so the orange bowl doesn’t drop us for the mountain west!

LSU-2

TN-1
Nebraska-1
AL-1
TX-1
Teams and their NCs since UGA actually won one. Oh wait, I forgot to mention GT won one two. UGA = irrelevant on the national scene.

Dear uga fans,
We feel your frustration. Oh, how the mighty have fallen. Please keep the comments coming as we love watching you come apart. Keep in mind that 5 or 6 wins is a real possibility for you this season. Next year looks like it might be worse. Tech has not had a season like you are having in quite a while.
In the future, there will be a huge drop in sales for uga car flags, uga t-shirts, huge magnetic “G”s and dirty georgia baseball caps. Yes, nasty red uga flags will be half mast in trailer parks all across the state.
We know that you have these dreams of the dawgs coming into Bobby Dodd and shuttin’ us down. I used to have the same dreams. Now they are a reality. You will lose this year because GT > uga.

Are you fools scared?Should be because we are smarter than you and will prove it.Chop blocks are illegal and the refs will be watching so be ready when the flags fly.Gt is overblown and your heads are are swollen out of proportion,but we can fix that with the drilling your about to receive.The injury report for gt next week will be long.
