Georgia gets hammered and doubts about Richt grow

The looks on the faces of Georgia coach Mark Richt and defensive assistants Todd Grantham (center) and Rodney Garner (left) say it all Saturday night. (Brant Sanderlin/AJC)

(UPDATED: 12:10 a.m.)

This is when you start struggling to remember the good times. This is when a Georgia fan thinks back to an early seven-year span under Mark Richt when Georgia went 24-11 against ranked opponents and wonders, “Wait, did that really happen? Or was it those brownies I ate?”

If it wasn’t bad enough that the Bulldogs were underdogs (get used to that) in their season opener and a relative home game Saturday to a school from Idaho — something difficult for so many to swallow — the team’s response made all past criticism seem understated. With eight months to prepare since a humiliating effort against Central Florida in the Liberty Bowl, Georgia couldn’t give Boise State any tougher of a game than it usually receives from Wyoming.

Save some trickeration — an 80-yard touchdown run by Brandon Boykin that gave the Dogs an early 7-0 lead — it was Boise State’s night. It was Boise State’s celebration. It was Boise State that played smart and physical, the kind of performance that gets teams into BCS bowls. Remember BCS bowls?

Both teams made loud statements. Georgia just made the wrong one. Following that Boykin touchdown, the Bulldogs saw their opponents real off 28 straight points. Boise State went on to win 35-21, and it didn’t even feel that close.

Georgia’s defense looked as bad in its second season under Todd Grantham as it did in the first. The Boise State offensive line dominated. Quarterback Kellen Moore at times seemed to toy with defenders.

If only the Dogs had more than eight months to prepare.

If only they had completely revamped their strength and conditioning program.

Oh, wait a minute …

Since going 24-11 against ranked teams, Richt is 2-9. That’s more than a trend. The next ranked opponent also is the first SEC opponent: South Carolina, next week in Athens. The level of desperation just went up.

Richt must realize that. He just didn’t show it after the game. In fact, what he showed was somewhat alarming. After some standard introductory comments — “They were better than we were. We’ve got a lot of work to do before next week. But we know everybody is 0-0 in league play” — Richt actually laughed. Yes, laughed. He turned to Atlanta Journal-Constitution reporter Chip Towers, who had been pestering Richt all week about the status of safety Bacarri Rambo, laughed and said that Rambo would not be suspended for the South Carolina game. Richt had been playing coy with the media, but Rambo was held out Saturday as expected for an unspecified violation of team rules.

Laughter may be a defensive mechanism for Richt. But his team just got whacked with a 2 x 4 in the season opener. Is laughing in the post-game new conference really a good idea?

Richt has been getting a lot of heat. He should. Fact is, Georgia’s slide hasn’t been merely about the ascension of Alabama and Florida in the SEC. In the last two years alone, the Dogs have lost games to Oklahoma State, LSU, Tennessee, Kentucky, South Carolina, Arkansas, Mississippi State, Colorado, Auburn and Central Florida. How long ago was it when you could not have imagined Georgia losing to many of those teams?

The Dogs suffered borderline humiliation on their first possession. They had a false start penalty before the first snap. They had a false start three plays later. They were whistled for delay of game before punting. Before the first quarter was over, the Dogs also were called for an illegal formation for having five players in the backfield (the penalty was declined) and they burned a timeout before a Boise State punt for having only 10 players on the field.

This is why having the biggest, strongest and fastest players sometimes doesn’t matter.

Boykin’s touchdown would be the Dogs’ only score of the first half and it comprised more than half of the team’s yardage (151). The Dogs totaled 71 yards in the other 29 plays.

Georgia’s defense looked strong for the first few Boise State series. But the Broncos appeared to make some adjustments in pass protection and Moore starting find holes in the zone. He moved the offense well in three of BSU’s last four possessions in the half, two resulting in touchdowns (the other, an interception by Branden Smith).

Boise State’s offensive line took over in the second quarter. Moore wasn’t sacked all game and completed 28 of 34 passes, three for touchdowns. He could’ve had a Baracalounger in the backfield to recline before some of his throws. At the outset of the third quarter, Georgia looked lost and overmatched on defense. Moore went 7-for-7 for 69 yards on Boise State’s first possession of the half. Then on second down from the Dogs’ 7, running back Doug Martin faked Smith into oblivion and danced into the end zone for a 21-7 lead.

It wasn’t over. But it was over. Once Boise State’s offense got going, Georgia couldn’t stop it.

The slide continues. It’s uncertain if Richt can stop that, either.

The Dawgs just suck. They can’t be coached; they don’t think; they don’t react; they don’t block, they don’t tackle; but they brag really well. Too bad they don’t back it up; then they would just be braggarts, instead of braggarts and losers. If ever a team needed the death penalty, it’s this one.

Boise State’s superior coaching took over in the first quarter. No discipline (3 penalties on the first 4 plays) Going away from the five man rush which was the only thing that stopped Boise State early on.(Boise rushed five regularly with success) A flawed punt return plan which let the punter hold the ball 3 extra seconds for his initial coverage to get down field (rush the punter, hello). Superior athletes were dominated by better coaching and smarter players(they don’t have silly exuberance over small plays) The coaching staff as I have been saying for three years is a complete and miserable failure. How much longer do we put up with this.

I think if the Athens corrections department had a team they would be better, they have all your good players.

I watched the replay of the Miss St, SC and Ark games 4 times each. Had Ga ran the ball more in those games the outcome would of been different. The defense played better than what the record indicate.
If Crowell gets 20 to 25 carries a game, I believe we will go undefeated. If Murray pass on 1st and 2nd downs like he did last season, I think they will lose 2 games. The SEC won 5 straight NC because those teams had a good running game and a dominate defense.

How did that undeated prediction work out for you tony?

Our game plans just don’t add up. We throw deep on 1st down. We run on 3rd and long. Our bigger offensive and defensive lines got out-played. I can’t help but feel we were out coached and that Boise St. (and most other teams we’ve played in the past 2 years) had a much better game plan than we did. One that was more sure to work. Our game plans seem to be the exact same thing every game. It’s not getting us very far.

Todd Grantham and Mike Bobo don’t have what it takes to be successful in the SEC. Bobo might run the worst offense in college football. And hey, Todd…can you throw in a blitz? Maybe just once? I’m tired of watching great players fail to maximize their potential because UGA can’t take advantage of their talent. Make no mistake this loss was about coaching. Period. Missed tackles, dropped passes, blown coverages, silly penalties and tired players–it’s been the same story for the past three years. AD McGarity, will you please fix this? Your head coach seems unwilling/unable to do so.

Addressing the UGA folks who gave me so much grief the last few weeks – UGA was just not ready – this team has a long long way to go.

I was pleasantly surprised how physically superior and how better are athletes were over UGA”s.

The UGA O-LINE was Big and Slow – was pretty easy to dominate.
Our O-Line – and our 5″-11 center our played both UGA’s 340lb nose tackles and UGA’s Defense.

That was a whipping.

The big thing was out players were much better prepared and executed extremely well, Our schemes were way better than UGA’s
Our coaches were way ahead of UGA coaches – we knew what to do and when to do it. – really dictated the game.

Whipped – Game Over. UGA may not be our toughest game this year – that was actually pretty easy.

The UGA isn’t good enough to make those kind of predictions and it showed tonight. If it wasn’t obvious before it definitely is tonight, UGA is the red head stepchild of the SEC East.

I just think the school goes the cheap route with hiring asst, coaches. Those are the guys in D-1 football that do all the work and prepare the players.

Excellent analysis Jeff!! The bullpup faithful that continues to drink the kool-aid being served in Athens are getting just what they deserve. I have not seen a team that unprepared to play since the stellar performance by uga in their last game.

All these overpaid coaches & overhyped players can’t hide the fact that georgia is a bottom tiered SEC football program (right there with Vandy, Kentucky & Ole Miss)! McGarity should have done what was needed after last season & got rid of richt & the alleged coaching staff he has assembled. Instead, he was drinking the concotion as well.

Instead, we get the another gimmiky uniform that, unfortunately, can’t hide the fact that there are very few football players actually putting them on.

If uga were serious about the state of the program, richt would be canned tonight!! It was hilarious to drive home from the Dome & listen to the clowns on the uga radio broadcast talk about how the “goals for the season were still attainable” ….. after just ONE GAME!!! What a bunch of clowns.

I personally took note of the sponsors of uga football (texaco, kroger, regions bank, delta) & plan to begin my boycott of them tomorrow. I hope others will join in.

AS much as I hate to admit this – this was not a big victory for Boise – as UGA just does not have a good football program at this time.

Here are my revised predictions – based on tonights performance – yes, I drank that KOOL_AID and thought UGA was going to win this game and go 10-2.

But after seeing how we were physically dominated, ill prepared, stupid game plan, out executed, out coached – I see UGA losing to USC, one of the Mississippi schools, Tennessee, Florida – thank God Vandy and Kentucky suck this year.

I love coach Richt – but unless UGA”s football fortunes turn – and turn quick – NEW LEADERSHIP is needed in UGA’s football program.

A couple of thoughts:

1)Boise State was the better team, hence the disparity in the rankings. Georgia could have played better, but they did not totally embarrass themselves. The better team won. #5’s usually beat #19’s.

2)Please get rid of the new uniforms and get back to the traditional silver britches and red/white tops. You aren’t just ruining your brand by losing, who wants to buy a highschool looking jersey?

3) Georgia is a desperate team and program. That usually does not translate into a successful season. You’ll upset someone, but you won’t have the year that Richt needs get folks off his back.

Having all the bulldog players show their name as “Georgia” was a good test run. Soon, they can start seeking paying sponsors, like “Athen’s Toyota” or “The Varsity.” Until then, I expect to see them all wearing “Your Name Here” on every jersey.

Glad they play the game on the field and not in the news, otherwise Georgia wouldn’t have a chance. Dawgs 38-17.

Don’t you now wish they played it in the news and not on the field dawg85! By the way, how many yards did Herchel Crowell have? (Sorry, I can’t help it, I am laughing out loud at this point).

I don’t care how much coaching you give dumb, knee jerk players. They ain’t gonna respond. Georgia still has too many guys who aren’t diciplined enough to win. Example, we’re 4th and short, a running play. On the right side Orson Charles has responsibility for the outside pass rusher. Instead of taking him on, he sidesteps to the right, lets him in and runs as if going out for a pass. What the h was he thinking…oh, but he wasn’t.

PowerMad…you’re absolutely right. This is about coaching, and Boise State may not have the biggest, strongest athletes out there, but they are extremely well disciplined, execute a game plan, study and know their opponent’s tendencies, and exploit their weaknesses. The fact that Georgia continually has stellar recruiting classes, yet their seemingly superior players fall flat on their faces year after year astounds me. This appeared to be total lack of preparation. I love Schultz’s line, “If only the Dawgs had more than 8 months to prepare…” What joke of a football team. What a joke of a coaching staff.

Dawgs was out played all over the field! Boise St’s Coach could take UGA to the promise land. He’s just that good and has a discipline team. The Gamecocks aren’t that good, in my opinion, I think UGA could give them a good run for the money! I still believe in my heart that Ralph Friedgen, the old Marylands coach, could when a national championship as Offensive Coordinator for UGA. Any way, it’s not the end of the season. The Dawgs will beat Auburn for sure! :)

Game planning just didn’t appear to compare to Boise’s. Play calling was pathetic! Boise appeard to be a step ahead on both sides of the ball. Conditioning was pathetic, can’t believe that the defense was gassed during the first series of the third quarter! Hopefully, this is indicative of a young team that will mature rapidly and have a good season. However, if things don’t change quickly Coach Richt’s tenure in Athens should come to an end.

UGA fans probably don’t care what a Tech fan thinks, but it seems like the problem with Richt is similar to the problem at Tech we had with Paul Hewitt. When it comes to getting talent in, they’re both fantastic.

But that’s not how you build a program… it’s about having a philosophy and a system, and then recruiting around that. Richt and Hewitt seem to do it the opposite way… get talent and try to throw it together, and that usually ends up with an incomplete team. A sports like football isn’t as simple as having the biggest or the fastest or the strongest… it starts with the X’s and O’s and building a team around what you want to accomplish. That’s why Boise State won tonight… coaching, plain and simple.

I like Richt and i’m not even saying UGA should fire him… but any coach who goes about it the way it seems like he’s approaching it is IMO destined to fail. We kept hoping it would work with Hewitt, and it never did beyond having the occasional good season. But it’s simply not sustainable.

Fire Richt NOW!

September 4th, 2011

I will tell you what happens to 5 star recruits when they get to Athen. They turn into mimes just like their coach. They have no intensity on the sideline they mirror their moron coach. He coaches down talent some coaches take a lot less and do more but not Richt. FIRE HIM NOW!

It is amazing. I am not a college football coach, so why can I see things coming before Richt.

First, Richard Samuel has no business being the starting running back for UGA. He sucks! He had his chance in 2009 and failed miserably. How many games will it be before he’s the third best back? It took about 4 games in 2009. I understand moving him back to the running back position to add depth, but he should not be getting this much playing time.

Two. Bobo……..should have been fired in 2009, ABSOLUTELY should have been fired in 2010. Sadly though, we have to put up with him another year. I just hope this is the last.

Three. Mark Richt, if you lose to S.C., which you will, you should just go ahead and resign. You are an embarrasment to yourself and this program. Leave and do it now!

Why are we forced to watch such pathetic football? We are one of the wealthiest football programs in the country, and we have one of the worst coaching staffs. I pray that we will find a great coach next year. Chris Peterson just put in an excellent interview……were you paying attention Greg McGarity?????

When you take the best looking uniform in all of CFB and make drastic changes the first reaction will be negative but the more I see them the more I like them.

The new Unis will look better and better as the game goes on.

When Brandon Boykin returns the opening kickoff for 95 yards, they will be looking good.

When Ga’s defense forces the first of many three and outs they will be looking even better.

By the time the first quarter is over and the dawgs have established dominance on both lines of scrimage and are up by 14 points they will be down right spectacular.

Fire Mark Richt and his whole staff. Pathetic coaching in all aspects of the game. Kudos to BSU. Richt – don’t let the door hit you on the way out. You & your staff should have left the field tonight jobless.

On another note, our fans SUCK! The parking lots were trashed with garbage, broken bottles, etc. Classless. I’m ashamed to be associated with UGA after what I witnessed tonight on the field from the coaches and outside the stadium from the fans.

I believe there was bad play calling by Coach Bobo. Give Crowell the ball one the first three downs, and then put a great QB in the position to throw and then a long pass?? How about the screen pass or just a short 3 yard pass every now and then? Am I missing something. They have the talent but just aren’t coach up???

Some perspective here:

1) Dawgs played the #5 team in the nation. A loss was always a possibility. I am frustrated with Richt too but I am not calling for his head just yet. If we continue with more of the same from last season going forward then I will jump onboard.

2) The season is not over after a loss against a top 5 team. Lose 3 or 4 in a row then I will concede.

3) USCe did not impress me. Fell way behind E. Carolina early and finally battled back in the 2nd half to beat them. I do not foresee total domination against the Dawgs next week.

4) Give Murray a chance. This was the biggest game of his short career and he simply played a bad game. It happens…even Tebow experienced that before. Not comparing Tebow & Murray…just saying that it happens regardless of talent.

5) Members of the “dream team” played their first college game tonight against a top team. Give them a chance before you call them a bust. Mitchell is a stand out.

No excuses here, just stating that all is not lost on the season. Don’t put your season tix on Ebay/Craigslist just yet fellow Dawg fans. Congratulations Boise, you played to win. Dawgs stunk it up tonight but there are a lot of games left to play.

I’ve supported Richt in discussions, in the past. Hard to do that now. That was an ill-prepared, ill-conditioned team that played Boise tonight. Zero excuses for that abortion.

My only suggestion for UGA is to add a sequined belt to the uniforms. It will give the players somewhere to hang their football bats.

It amazes me that we, as UGA fans, are not allowed to be optomistic about our team. GT, UF, UT, and all these other “fans” come on here and criticize us for having hope that things will be better.

Hmmm…. GT- what is that 1, maybe 2, wins in the past 10 years against UGA. UF – didn’t you go through a Zook era? UT – there is a reason its called the Fulmer Cup and a reason Phil was run out of town years ago, and wasn’t it approximately 10 years after taking you to a MNC.

All of the “fans” from other schools need to get on to supporting your own team. You really just sound like the idiots that we all deal with in life who find it easier to criticize and insult, instead of just win or (or in GT’s case) lose graciously.

Seriously, get over yourselves, and feel free to not leave your stupid comments on the UGA blogs. We all have to deal with the realities of our own lives, we don’t need your rude or snide remarks.

I’m about to puke listening to the apologists on WSB. When Richt couldn’t get to the 2008 SEC championship with Knowshon Moreno and Matthew Stafford we should have known it was over. Three years later, we’ve been more than generous in giving Richt a chance to right the ship. That first offensive series told me everything I needed to know about the “changes” that were supposed to shore up this year’s edition. Sorry, folks! We looked as bad as we looked against UCF. And that’s saying something. FIRE MARK RICHT.

I’m a Georgia alum and a fan for many years. I know coach Richt and have always found him to be an extremely accommodating man. But this business about respecting the man as a fine Christian has gone too far. We didn’t hire a preacher to coach our boys. We wanted a football coach. His approachable personality and kind nature have helped sustain him through the tough times these past few years but we should all see the writing on the wall. The rest of the SEC is moving on and we will either make the change now or be left behind. There’s too much passion and money at Georgia to sustain such mediocrity.

Dear UGA players and Coaches,

As a fan who is was so disappointed with his team last year, I waited for this season for so long. I haven’t seen UGA football in 9 months and I all heard was how great your O and Dline were. Well now that I just saw that horrible poor ass showing from you tonight…I realized I still have not seen UGA football in 9 months. Richt you have no one else left to fire. You had all summer to prepare and watch and scheme and to start the second half after resting for 15 minutes we have to have substitutes because our lazy ass linemen couldnt keep up with the pace. Disrespectful. Richt you are a great recruiter and maybe when the next coach comes to town he can make you head recruiter. But for the last few years you couldnt coach your way out of a paperbag.

It’s amazing to me that you let “over the top” UGA fans be your basis for every one of us. Obviously the fans who troll the boards all day long have nothing better in their life than this, and don’t truly understand the current situation/state of UGA football.

Most people who truly understand where UGA is in the program cycle, were pretty nervous about the game because we knew it could be a good game or we could play pretty bad.. I think most people who are not overly obsessed would tell you they had reservations about how good we were, and that we could be good, but we could just as well be pretty bad again… There are obviously issues.

Same song and dance from Richt, year after year. They talk, they wish, they posture — they are in over their heads. At least Auburn avoided an embarrassing loss. UGA IS embarrassing. To the SEC and to the people who support them. Case closed. There is nothing Mark Richt can say that will change it. He’s a nice guy, but time for a change. This is not emotion talking. This is reality. The dream team. The new outlook. The lack of dead wood. The new found strength and conditioning. New juice. The energy bus. The studying football. The vampires… all that crap translates into a coaching staff that once again, had their team unprepared to even really show up and put up a fight. Like most opponents, Boise had a few rough series, and then adjusted like good teams adjust. And UGA just sits there glued to their dusty game plan and rides it into the ground. Until it’s too late, and then a brief flurry of hope — only to be dashed because the Georgia coaching staff is the team’s worst enemy. The USCe game will be no different. This UGA team is a dead man walking. And for all you homers, yes I’m off the bus because it’s been broken down for years and I’m tired of it draining my bank account.

I can answer why we didnt run Crowell more often.

1. Mike Bobo is an idiot

2. Mark Richt is an idiot

3. We would rather line up in the Shotgun and throw the ball 30-40 yds down the field into double coverage every play.

4. Our QB was not prepared because of reasons 1 and 2.

Move Samual back to LB, he still can’t run the ball for as big as he is.

We all knew what was wrong w/the dawgs and what needed to be fixed. It was apparent and in print no matter what you were reading. The coaching staff was supposed to correct the ineptness of the OL, the pass coverage and tackling and the conditioning. Well, nothing has changed and none of those problems were corrected. The coaches cannot fix it so they all must go. We’ve had enough and the press conference after the game put the nail in Richt’s coffin. He’s done and had his time at UGA. Bring in someone like the Iowa coach. he takes leftovers and they play hard and win. All we have are press clippings and how great our players are. You have to be blind not to realize this staff cannot win games anymore that really count except the directional schools. Enuf is enuf. Change is needed and now not later.

@ Barkley I am a Dawg fan so I support this team. I have provided a realistic viewpoint on the state of our union after the FIRST game of the season. Yes we have been on a downward spiral for quite some time and yes we should be able to drill opponents like we used to. My point is this is a new season; I am not basing it on season’s past. Boise is a top 5 team so it’s hard to see that the whole season is lost on a loss against a higher ranked opponent. Give them a chance before we start the whole “this is 2010 all over again” talk. If we get drilled next weekend and the weekends after that then I will eat crow.

I think you should ease up on talk about the players, and keep the focus solely on firing Mark Richt. After all, the players are only aged 18-22, and are mostly young men who would have nothing else to do on a Saturday night that can be considered legal. Many have never known the easy life that reading books, writing compositions, and solving arithmetic problems can bring. When their two-five short years are up, and Athens runs them off with arrest warrants, they will be forced to work menial labor for bosses who hold grudges against them, just because their team beat their boss’ team each November, after Thanksgiving, to go 6-6, 7-6, or 6-7 and qualify for one of the 1,000 bowl games. Give them a break, please. Their coaches show them diagrams of plays, hoping they will be able to understand what the diagrams mean; but it is unreasonable to expect miracles. Praise them for what they do right, rather than condemn them for doing most things wrong. There is enough pressure on them to fit in on a college campus. They don’t need friends reading the blogs to them, making them cry themselves to sleep.

I wonder if Saban and Spurrier were in the Honduras this summer? My guess is that they were earning the money that they are paid to put a winning team on the field. Richt is paid three million dollars and that is the best he could come up with after having 8 months to prepare? You can’t motivate these players by holding prayer meetings. What amazes me is the misplaced optimism by so many Georgia fans. This is a team that couldn’t score a touchdown against Central Florida and lost it’s best player to the draft. What you saw tonight is reality. The reality of having a coaching staff that can’t get the job done. In the last 4 years, Richt has coached em up to lose 4, 5, 6, and 7 games. He’s admitted that he’s not as concerned about the state of Georgia football as he is with his religion. It’s 4 years past time for him to go!

It was obvious Boise was the better team in every way. Better coaches, better schemes, better prepared, better conditioned and I dare say….better players in many areas. This was embarrassing but has become the norm over the past three seasons.
Richt is a fine man but has not assembled a fine staff who can coach the fine players they recruit. Displine is lacking in our program and it shows in our games. Penalties, not having the right players on the field at the right times, poor play calling on O and D!
Wow, what a colossal mess. Wai till you witness next week!

After the season, hire Chris Petersen and let’s start anew!

The idiots crowning uga as champs before the season began are clearly stupid and not worth paying attention to. Most Georgia fans who actually spent time in a college classroom knew this was going to be an upset at best. The fact that coach Richt’s team continue to show up unprepared is the only problem I have with the team. The man is clearly capable of recruiting talented players but he just doesn’t seem to be able to prepare them adequately. Our O-line is is big, why couldn’t they block anyone?

Hey Richt. Still think your decision to encourage Ealey and others to leave was a good idea? Think you could have used a few of those guys tonight.

You’re decision making does not weigh on the side of smarts. There are smarter guys out there and if the administration doesn’t find one soon then they will suffer greatly where they hate it the most, in the bank. You’re a nice guy but have fallen woefully behind your peers in the coaching aRENA. Spurrier said it best when he said what happens to all those 4 and 5 star players the go to UGA? They move on to the NFL where most of them do well because they finally are coached. Please just quit!

Most comments right on. Not much to add. Obviously a change is needed. Not going to happen until the season is over. Even if they recover and go 8-3 or 9-2…not likely, change has to be made. Likeable guy (Richt), but no emotiojn (check out the many times that was highlighted during the game). Oobviously Richt’s true calling is elsewhere. Embrace that Mark and move on. You’ll be happier and more liable to show true emotion. This team, this program lacks the “fire in the belly” that alumni, supporters and former players often cite as their undoing. Actually thought they would win. Unfortunately THEY weren’t so sure. The blame resides with Richt…and Bobo…and Grantham. Obviously.

Why not drag your tight end through where the backers just vacated? How about running some counter plays to get the defense moving so our big hogmollies can blow them out? How about recognizing that your freshman gained almost 4 yards a carry and he was clearly underused? How about recognizing that running your receivers 10 yards down the field before they make a cut will get your QB killed if you don’t have a dump route? How about throwing some stunts in so that their O’Line won’t just cut your fat boys at the line? How about anything? You are pathetic and are an embarrassment as a coaching staff. You are stealing your money as you sure didn’t earn it!!! These players have enough talent to win or at least be competitive.

But the school has to do something amd do it now because the players don’t really know what their doing and the coaching staff looks like deer in head lights all the time.

Awful. Just awful. They were beat in every phase of the game. Richt will be a head coach somewhere in 2012 but I don’t see it being at Georgia if this is their best effort. Boise is a good team, but not a great one. They couldn’t beat LSU or Oklahoma in my opinion. The o-line looked lost. The receivers were pitiful. The defense showed no signs of improvement from last year and could not adjust to what Boise was doing. Bobo can’t continue to make these obvious playcalls that I figured out watching from my 70 inch flatscreen. Everything needs to change. First and foremost Richt needs to take back playcalling duties from Bobo. Then they need to summon the ghost of Erk Russell to fix the defense. If I were coach I would have been ashamed of this team’s performance. When you put so much into this game and you get your butts handed to you on a platter probably with a Chick Fil A sandwich and some waffle fries you should be embarrassed.

I am trying to make the best out of a bad situation. I am not happy with the way things have gone in the past but Boise is a good team. The Dawgs are talented but young, it’s not realistic to expect them to win a NC or go 12-0 this season. Yes, we should have won a NC when we had Stafford, Moreno and a host of other talents and there is no excuse for that. And yes, other SEC teams have surpassed us over the last several years and I am not happy about it either. Fact is Richt is our coach this season so nothing can change that for now. If he continues on the downward spiral this season then I concede to the “fire him” mentality.

I don’t like UGA much. They are perennially overrated — in the top 20 this year. And their fan base is obnoxious and often unrealistic about the quality of their program. Because of a rather weak schedule after next week, they may get a few wins, but the trouncing by BSU exposed them as no better than a second tier program.

Bottom line is we got our butts handed to us by a better team. Boise has a mature team – 25 seniors and 18 of those are 5 year lettermen. Our offense was ineffective – our pitiful O line could not keep Murray safe or open running lanes despite Boise not even blitzing. Our D never made the adjustments necessary to slow down Moore. I am afraid we are in for yet another long season. We didn’t look good and I see nothing that makes me think all of the positive off season news we have been hearing is going to make any difference at all. I really don’t understand how UGA with all of the money, facilities and recruits that we get can play so badly. I have NEVER said I wanted Coach Richt to go, but I just don’t see how he can justify this kind of performance any longer considering the resources he has to work with – it’s very sad. I have no realistic hope that we will beat SC next week. And if we lose to SC and then go on a win streak (which I hardly see happening) then we will once again be in a position of having beat teams we should have and losing to the teams that would have marked us as an elite team. We just weren’t even competitive in this game. We looked bad and we looked poorly coached and our schemes on both sides of the ball were ineffective. Kudos to the Broncos. It seems we Georgia fans have endured a long off season for nothing. Tonight was very disappointing.

With all that time to prepare Ga. was not ready to start the season. Mistakes made that should have been ironed out a month ago. Boise off. line was better than GA’s def. line. Boise def.line was better than GA’s off. line. It may be time to believe Murray can’t get it done against good teams(pads stats vs. weak teams)
The play calling on defence does not deserve a free pass. It was obvious to me by 2nd quarter GA could not get to QB with 3 rushers & with time Moore was always going to find a receiver. Yet, GA was still rushing 3 in 4th quarter.
Only question is: is Boise a great team or GA not very good. Next week will tell: if GA beats SC give Boise their credit. If SC spanks GA; Boise still hasn’t proven anything.

September 4th, 2011

Where are all of the Kool-aid guzzlers tonight? Probably drunk and passed out from all the dreams and lies they sold themselves to believe things were going to be better after the Liberty Bowl debacle. The bottom line is after tonight’s performance CMR and the Dawgs must HUNKERDOWN !!

Give the Broncos credit, Boise played a smart game with the hurryup offense and kept great field position throughout the entire first half to wear the Dawgs defense down. UGa was not ready offensively for this type of game against a ranked opponent. The Dream Team true freshmen that played gave it their best shot and performed admirably considering they are still in the infancy of their college football careers. So the loss can’t be blamed on youth or inexperience. Face it UGa doesn’t have a good running game or the depth at RB to be successful. The O-Line took a beating and didn’t excute in crunch-time situations. Most of the fingers are pointing at the offense, but the defense and special teams struggled and let down as well. Again I ask is the coaching staff at UGA working hard to prepare talent & outcoach opposing coaching staffs or simply relying on the talent they assemble to compensate for their coaching deficiencies ? In the Boise game it kind of looked that way again, that the coaches were praying for somebody to make a big play. Andit happened a couple of times, but not frequently enough to change the predicted outcome.

Criticize Bobo all you want but it doesn’t matter. Even if Richt would have took over a OC he wouldn’t have had a clue either how to successfully attack the Boise defense either. Don’t you think if CMR had any real answers on offense wouldn’t the mediocrity be replaced with more acceptable outcomes for the Dawgs ?! After all he is on the hotseat and it’s getting close to now or never time for him to turn things around. So one would think he would take more responsibility for the offense with so much on the line.

When UGa scored on the long trick play run I felt that was it. That was our best shot and we lucked up and sprung a big play for once. I asked myself is that all UGA really had ? Boise sensed it too and began a workman type assault en route to a 28 nothing run on the Dawgs. The Dawgs were clearly playing for what little pride they had left at that point at a virtual “home” game in Atlanta. I was very surprised to see them score what would be two meaningless touchdowns for damage control. The uniforms had nothing to do with Boise being better prepared and more confident in themselves than the Dawgs. The 3 million dollar question is, how many more beatdowns and embarrasements must UGA continue to endure until the UGA Kool-Ade community will man up and face the truth and rightfully place the blame on those responsible for the string of humiliations this once proud program has endured over the last three going on four years. Until the delusional UGA fans in high places wake up and face the truth UGA football will continue to get worse before they get better. The Kool- aiders and reprobates still don’t realize the days of entitlement wins for UGA are over !!

As we Dawgs limp around licking our wounds again up next comes the #11 South Carolina Gamecocks, lead by UGA nemesis Steve Spurrier. Hunkerdown !!!

Well, same song different verse. The little drag route across the middle was open all night, next week I expect the ‘wheel’ will be open all night and Spurrier will exploit it. Burning time outs because of incorrect personnel on the field, running the ball on third and long and finally, Boykin makes one appearance on offense, scores….and is not seen again.
The season is not lost, long way from it. Lose next week and the distance becomes much shorter.

Richt has lost his fastball. Ever since we were ranked #1 heading into the 2008 season, we haven’t been a solid football team. I’m not one of those knee-jerk nutjob fans who wants to fire a coach after every loss. Richt has to find a way to get his fastball back for the South Carolina game. If he can’t do that, then I think the only way he can keep his job is to win nine of ten to finish the regular season. 8-4 is not good enough.

USCe fell way behind an unranked opponent before coming back for the W. Auburn struggled and finally pulled off a win against an unranked opponent. The Dawgs played a #5 team and kept it close until the 2nd half. They played terribly in the 2nd half and ultimately lost. UGA is being called an embarrassment to the SEC on this blog yet other SEC teams had problems today with far lesser opponents and are heralded as superior?! Don’t get that…

@Fire Richt Now: I concede the facts of Auburn’s NC and our 1-9 record. However, look at USCe…good season last year, no NC, no SEC, got hammered in the SECCG and have a history of failure yet they are deemed head & shoulders above us? Yes we have regressed over the last few yrs, and there is no excuse for that. We should finish #1 in the East every season. However, this was the first game of the season, AU and USCe did not look good either. Spurrier has not accomplished great things in his long tenure at SC; Richt has shown moments of greatness. If they drill us next weekend then I eat my words.

Mike Bobo is a terrible play caller. We are down 21 to 7 and we line up in the I and drive to the Boise State 25, then we line up in the stupid shotgun. First down – off sides, First down again – dropped pass, Second down (still in the shotgun) – short run, Third down – sack, Fourth down – missed field goal. Why did we drive down the field in an I backfield and then jump into shotgun? We always get in the shotgun on first down inside the 30 yard line. If Richt doesn’t go back to calling the plays, the season is lost…

I respect Richt and what he DID for Georgia. I furthermore respect him as a man of his beliefs and what he stands for than about anyone in this day and time. He is a great family man, a devoted Christian that believes in setting an example and giving back what God has awarded you. He is smart, good looking and even adopted two children from the Ukraine after his other two children. I hope he gets as he deserves the Coach of the Year for his beliefs, compassion and community work from the NCAA Giving Back Program or whatever they have. Now, I do not think UGA is paying $3 million a year for a philanthropy program. Nick Saban and Bill Bellichick are considered to be tough SOB’s. I have defended Marc Richt until tonight. I would encourage him to get into the ministry or a school like BYU. Well, okay not that one, but maybe Baylor would be a better fit. He is going to be roasted and toasted here as is his family, and the man does not deserve that, EXCEPT he continues to accept the paycheck and the position that goes with the job. No doubt, a great man, and at one time a fine coach, but his priorities have changed. Georgia’s priorities remain the same. Win most of the time with class and as frequent as possible, beat our main rivals. By the way, what an audition. If he saw the crowd and they saw his team, I believe our next head coach might have been in the building tonight. Talk about adjustments after halftime, keeping you seniors for whatever reason. That was a well coached team. I wonder if $3.5 million to come to UGA might turn his head. I stood by as long as could and I can not defend this anymore.

UGA got beat by a well coached team that had great field position most of the night. UGA started inside their 20 yard line quite often by not rushing the punter and allowing great kick coverage. The fact is that UGA is not that bad but Boise is that good. Boise would dominate every team in the ACC and defeat all the teams in the SEC. Their offense is virtually unstoppable. So rave on you crippled brain dunces with bad breath and beards but you will see that UGA is a good team except for the line blocking and play calling. Ban zone blocking, draw plays on 3rd and long, deep passes down the sideline, and passes on critical downs to King. Other than that have a great day.

So LSU had distractions and TONS of adversity. They overcame it. Auburn clearly sucks. They overcame it. Notre Dame clearly sucks… sorry. Boise had big time adversity with 2 starters sitting out. And they win going away. Mark Richt builds momentum in his mind. It never translates to the field. His players still talk smack. He thinks it’s cute. This isn’t the 700 Club. No, actually, we fork over our money for tickets without so much as a “good luck and God Bless!” There are no good tidings. The planted seeds never grow. We might as well pee on them, for it’s out of our hands. And Mark laughs like it’s all in fun. As Alec Baldwin said in the famous movie and Broadway Show GlenGarry Glenn Ross, “I told them to fire your fuc in a$$ because a loser is a loser…” No truer words have ever been spoken. Richt is never gonna turn this train wreck around. He has no idea how. Chris Petersen is the perfect solution. He’s classy. He’s humble. He doesn’t tip his hand. He develops players (kind of important) and he doesn’t give in to the “woe is me, we just lost because… Hopefully McGarity will stop this taffy pull and do something before the UGA Brand is worth zilch.

At least the true Georgia fans have a helluva lot more class than some of you on here, gloating in Georgia’s loss. Those kids are hurt, disappointed, and trying to regroup for a tough game next week, and some of you are gleefully reveling in this loss like it’s wonderful. You know what? It’s not. Whether you root for Tech, Florida, Tennessee, Boise, whoever… what good is it if, say, Georgia’s program falls apart to what Michigan has been the last few years? How satisfying is it to beat a losing team that you’re SUPPOSED to beat? How much fun is it to kick somebody when they are down? Wouldn’t you rather your school beat a GOOD Georgia team?

Wouldn’t it be better if Georgia was top 10 and a strong SEC team, then when YOUR team beats Georgia, it’s a big deal? All you pathetic, ignorant Tech fans who know nothing about college football… what’s the big deal if you beat a 5-6 Georgia team in November? Great, you’re 8-4, Georgia is 5-7, big deal? Wasn’t it a much BIGGER deal in 1984 to beat a GOOD Georgia team that just came off the best 3-year run in recent history? Or was is sweeter in 1990 when you beat a terrible 4-7 team?

Come on… lay off. Georgia lost, Georgia is hurting, and it could be a difficult year. WHY the glee, the joy, the unbridled hate for a struggling team? Mark Richt is a GREAT man who has never done ANYTHING to you… he’d give you the shirt off his back. Aaron Murray is a GREAT kid, full of integrity. There are some GREAT stories on Georgia’s team — some kids who have struggled past learning disabilities, severe injuries, etc., and they are working their butts off… and some of you clowns who could’t even run 10 yards without getting your fat butts winded are LAUGHING and celebrating their demise?

That shows a complete, utter, massive lack of class and character on YOUR part… and whatever team YOU root for, be it Tech, Florida, Tennessee, Auburn, etc…. well, YOUR program has warts, too. They all do. I just don’t get the almost unhealthy pleasure some of you get from Georgia having a bad game and losing to somebody… it’s really sad and pathetic and I pity you.

The thing is, Georgia WILL be back. People said we wouldn’t be after Dooley left, or after that 4-7 season, or after Donnan lost to Tech 3 straight years, etc. But Georgia always rallies, and we’ll be a strong team again. This year, next year, whenever, but we lose a few games and some of you think UGA is Prarie View A&M? It’s sickening and pathetic the way some of you are blogging on here. Try to act like adults, why don’t you? If you are symbolic of your fan base, I would NEVER want my kid to go to school there.

And who is responsible for this? Man at the top. Three penalties on the very first possession . . . haven’t we been down this road before. Calling timeouts to get organized . . . haven’t we been down this road before, too? Sadly, I have lost confidence in Richt to right this ship. He is a good, Christian man who does a nice job spearheading missionary trips . . . but we need a top notch football coach . . . sooner the better.

GA has gotten beaten out of chances for playi ng for a NC simply by having to play in the SEC and play real teams week in and out all these years.

Honestly I think that the real problem is Bobo more-so than Richt. When Richt did the play calling we were on a winning track. Since Bobo has been OC that’s when the real issues have emerged. I only blame Richt for not recognizing that & not firing him. Bobo needs to go, period. I can’t see how Richt could suddenly lose his edge over the last few seasons after the success that he has had at UGA. That is why I think that the issue lies elsewhere & it needs to be remedied. UGA is losing respectability and, as a fan, it is embarrassing. Richt needs to toughen up & let Bobo go go.

Right about the comment on if LSU played BSU tonite, LSU woulda beat the breaks off of Boise tonight.
Meyer has National Title
Saban has National Title
Miles has National Title
Richt has nothing
This game proves Richt is taking this for granted and his effort of coaching has fallen off, I can remember the first few years, coaching was at a high level.
Case closed, if UGA wants to be in a title game, Richt has to step down and not to be replaced by a crummy coach. After he leaves get Chip Kelly from Oregon, imagine with the talent here what he could do. It would be night and day. I am sure he will come, because he seems like the person to be in the spotlight and overachieve in a top conference. Hint Hint Chip Kelly

Ya’ll need to have the house full, have on your rightful uniforms and make it a very tough environment for the gamecock team next week. It is a long season and life goes on.

Please Mr. Schultz, consider this for your opinion page.
Since January 10, 2011, the entire “Dawg Nation” has anticipated the next year under coach, Mark Richt. Unfortunately, Richt and his staff have not, and that seems to be the standard. Let the numbers and the facts speak for themselves. Under Mark Richt, Georgia is 0-5 against top 5 teams, and 2-9 against top 10 teams, and has preformed 14-13 out of its last 2 seasons. And, for the past 5 years, Georgia has lost one more game each year than it did the previous season. If this is not a downward spiral, I don’t know what is? Last night, I watched the TCU/Baylor game, and both coaches had more animation, drive, and enthusiasm in one game than Richt has had all last year. Since taking office, Richt has been a product of his past. He has stood by Mike Bobo, and Willie Martinez. Don’t forget that Martinez, Richt’s best man at his wedding, replaced Brian Van Gorder, as his defensive coordinator, and was not let go for some time! Conflict of interest! Richt has proven his inability to adjust to such teams as Florida, Central Florida, Auburn, Alabama, Colorado, and Kentucky. Two of those team names should strike a chord in the half-hearted Georgia Fan! Tonight, Boise State “rode in on a pale horse and death followed with him”! Death to Richt’s and Bobo’s tenure for sure. The eleventh hour, sorry the eleventh year has come, and nothing has grown out of the 2006 season. It’s time for a changing of the guard! The definition of STUPIDITY is “to continue on the same course of action, and to expect different results”! That is what Georgia Football has become! All the recruiting in the world cannot save you from poor discipline and coaching! If coach Richt’s only idea to motivate his team is uniform changes, then I suggest pink pants, purple shirts, and black helmets! Surely that will make the team faster, stronger, and more agile than a new play book. Way to go Ritch, you found the solution wher others could not!

UGA spent way too much time in the Shotgun tonight. Wow that was a change from years past of running the I-formation all game long even on 3rd and 30. Change is good but too much change is stupid. Why didn’t they run the ball and control the clock and the flow of the game. When they did go I-form they ran three straight play action passes. i thought play action was only supposed to work after you established a running game from within that same formation. Who taught Bobo how to call plays? Wow it was hard to believe he actually played QB. I thought QB’s were a little bit smarter than the other guys but in his case he might as well been the idiot kicker.

The players were not in the shape they needed to be and it showed in the second half. I remember the ESPN announcer saying something like “Georgia looks like they need a rest…” just shortly after half time. If the players had been trained and worked out ‘properly’ the past 6 months the second half of this game would have been a completely different result.

The outcome of Richt’s decision to replace CDV with Joe T has finally come to reality…on the field. Our players did not have the endurance and amount of injuries was unsettling. Maybe now the UGA staff, Richt and fans will realize what Joe T has been doing the past 6 months — Covering up injuries, giving false reports of progress at meetings, and specifically, while timing the players on the track, blatantly stopping the clock in front of S&C assistants much before players even reached the finish line.

I’m ashamed and embarrassed at the program as a whole for taking such amazing opportunity to succeed but instead, pushing UGA football back…..

It is going to be a shocker for those who have not followed UGA since the end of last season. The strength training, speed work, discipline that has marked the past few months is scary (in the positive sense). This is a “dressed to kill” GA team. UGA’s defense will smother BS. Murray will light up the score board. Not only will GA win but likely will win in a blow out. UGA is back.

I agree that Bobo is the problem, but the fact is, he is Richt’s problem. We did much better when Richt called the plays. I do not understand his loyalty to Bobo, but it is probably going to cost him his job. I have met Mike Bobo and watched him play ball and call plays. Upon meeting him, I remember saying this is no “rocket scientist” and that was when he was a player. He reminds you of a smaller more sophisticated Ray Goff. I am not blaming Bobo for many of the failures, but it is really not his fault as he should be at Memphis or somewhere else. Bobo is frankly a high school coach at best. He is not articulate and has trouble thinking on his feet, ala. the play calling. His idea of chess is tic tack toe. I blame Richt, as the CEO of UGA football, not taking the measures to ensure that we had if not the best, but dang near the best in coaching. As CEO, he is responsible for the accomplishments and failures of his subordinates. Took him too long to fire Martinez. Terishinski has no reason being in the gym for lack of integrity and expertise. Marc has gotten lazy and his priorities have changed. Just because you are in Bible Study with these guys and your wives are friends, does not mean it is not a big business. I suspect you are going to have time to communicate with each other regularly. My fiancee’ asked me what would Richt do? Does he have enough money? I told her, “Last year he sold a $2 million house and gave it to charity”. She responded that obviously he had enough money to fulfill whatever his desires were. I think she is right on point. His heart, soul and mind are on Godly things. Does not matter that they should intersect with a college team, I think Lou Saban does not agree. I am not going to judge Marc Richt nor Lou Saban. All I know is that you are are paid alot of money to win football games. Does not make it right, just the way it is. Personally, I think Richt wants to leave to go somewhere else with his contract where he has more time for his Lord and not the Bulldog Nation. I do not have a problem with that, I just wished he would go ahead and do it and lets get Petersen in here as quickly as we can. No Kiffins, Holtzs, Bryants, Carrolls or others, just people that do their job that they were expected to do within the rules. I hope he would be a Christian, but I do not believe that Arthur Blanks, as a Jew, considered Mike Smith’s religious beliefs. He was hired to win ballgames. Now, if Joe Paterno will come here, that would be welcome, which he will not, but how many of our recruits are Catholic. I am a proud Christian and will be in church today. I want our athletes to respect the law and hopefully believe in a higher power. I would expect our Coach to do the same, but his job is to set an example, counsel them, but most and not least, WIN. Play with discipline. Forget the penalties and every time you made a tackle or a good run or reception. Act like you have been at this level before, even if you have not. Stop the trash talking, whether they do it or not. Start remembering you represent the Georgia Bulldawgs and not you glorified self on one play. Focus on every play and give it your best. If you are not willing to do that, then you do not deserve to wear the uniform. Get a damn education and quit looking at this as a free ride, meal or extension in your life. I do not see any motivation except at the start of the games or we kicking someone’s butt. Where is that internal integrity that did everything in their power not to be beat. Boykin, you are the exception. The rest of you look like this is practice, and the number 2 team is supposed to understand that. This is University of Georgia Football. If your first priorities are to go the NFL, hangout and get fed housed while I play ball in front of TV and get whatever money we all know you don’t get, then do it. I am tired of this crap and I know we play in the SEC, but what the hell happened to class, presentation, respect, winning, and more importantly team over me. I am just making this assumption based on the facts, you guys are losers that will not stand up for a man that deserves better. You are fat, unconditioned, unmotivated(coaching and you probably never knew success and if you did it was easy). Man, y’all want to do. Play rap. Prance around. No I am no racist. All I am saying is what Coach Richt cannot or will not say, are you thinking of the team on every single play, or are you thinking about ESPN, the NFL, etc. We keep sending skill players to the NFL and do not have the results at home. I had rather have a David Greene over a Matthew Stafford for example. I had rather had a Terry Hoage than anyone I saw on defense tonight. You guys are so big and fast, but you do not give a crap about life, what it takes to succeed in college and be gone . For example, most of you think you are going to play NFL. Kellen Moore is a great college quarterback, will probably win the Heisman, will be drafted in the second round, and probably will never start. Hines Ward will probably go into the Hall of Fame for his receiving records and pro accomplishments. Don’t know for sure, but I would bet. This is a guy that was quarterback at UGA, and they are trying to change the rules on how aggressively a wide receiver can BLOCK someone because of him. Boys, that is a Bulldog.

But see, that was he and teammates did not have in mind. They did not want to have an individual show so they could be the next A.J. Green, or fat ass lineman on both sides that somebody will pay for because you are fat. Those little white boys on the Boise’s line kicked your ass. You could never get to him, but they damnsured got to yours. You are costing your coach his job because of your own selfishness. I do not expect that any of you will give a crap, because he makes so much money and you do “without”. I saw Herschel on TV on the sideline on TV as I was not at the game. I remember walking up to him after a late season game (South Carolina), and saying “Herschel, I enjoyed watching you today, thank you for that opportunity”. His response, “Thank you. I did not think that was my best game, but if you thought it was a good game, I am sure it was”. I walked away and said that is a good man. If only our athletes, specifically at Georgia and see what a champion carries himself on and off the field, maybe they would understand.

. UGA fans: grow up. One loss to the No.5 team does
not ruin your season. You have not lost an SEC game.
. A win over SC at home will put UGA in a great position to win the SEC East. It can happen. SC may not be that good.
.CMR and staff will correct mistakes and your team will be ready for SC.

They will lose to South Carolina too. No doubt. Richt is an offensive coordinator from an ACC school. His first head coaching job was Georgia. He will never bring Georgia out of this ridiculous play calling, half ass(idiots running around on the field losing their helments and getting hurt every year) era. He is a softy. He was good when Van Gorder was at UGA but those days are long gone. Other teams have gotten better in the SEC east. But UGA is just a pictograph of confusion. Where do I run the ball? And that is another problem about Richt. No running game. He does not understand the concept. Forget it. It is not going to happen as long as he is the coach. His mind is floating around in the air somewhere in fantasy land. UGA looked like a bunch undisiplined high school players. Braided hair so thick they can’t keep their helmants on long enough to run a play. What a bunch of idiots!!!!!!!——–This coaching staff should go coach in another league, because they will never get it together in the SEC—–not going to happen folks. Take it to the bank!!!!

All you fire Richt people, who would you hire to walk in and be an Urban Meyer or Lou Saban?

Keep your eye on Al Golden in Miami. I’ve been following their progress this offseason, and, we’ll see but I think you will see some inspired play from UM this year, win or lose. And Miami has a lot of the same problems on the field that Georgia does – swagger with nothing to back it up, jump around when they are ahead or after meaningless hits, sullen and dejected when when losing. Living on the legacy and not making a new one.

If UM gets smacked down with sanctions and scholarships and bowls get yanked, he can be had after this year. Most agree that they would not blame him for leaving if the sanctions are severe.

Not saying he’s the man, but keep your eye on how UM plays this year. I think they will fight harder than in recent years.

Mark Richt started by winning the coin toss. Boise State to have jitters on the road facing The Bulldog nation, out in style. We jammed MARTA and seemed to be a quarter million to their 250 fans. When we got off at the 5-Points and walked over to the Westbound to the Georgia Dome, it was hot. The tailgating seemed lackluster, but I saw some Boise State fans tailgating too. We left and went to CNN. Food Court. Didn’t find anything of interest, except for a T-Shirt I bought which I guess will never see the light of day, Bust Boise. The graphics were not that great on the front and the words on the back were poor. The graphics were good on the back, but it reads And the Smurf Turf Lovin’ Yahoos they brought with ‘em. Smack Talkin’ The Talk. $20 wasted.

Mismanagement of the coin toss, when we should have gone on Defense and should have gone directly after Kellen Moore. Trust me when I tell you that with TCU losing too, that every single Boise State opponent will do nothing but rush the quarterback all season long. Given that we saw that he was taking us apart, we still never mounted any sack, or anything close to one of him.

Brandon Boykin, how many times for how many years have I told you that he will play running back in the NFL ?

Media Guide. What good does it do to make copy of the media guide with the players’ numbers, only to see on every play you want to know who that guy was, that cannot tell any of the players ? Worthless.

Jarvis Jackson went after Kellen Moore once, and Branden Smith got the pick as a result. Did the coaching staff, figure that out either ? No. We are clueless.

2009 we beat what ended up # 13 Georgia tek.

Go ahead. Tell me who else we have beat ?

I’ll wait while you squirm in your seat on that one. Oh, the Boise State game doesn’t matter. Forget that the entire SEC is off and running, except for Ole Miss we all knew would struggle anyway.

We could have jumped off to such a great start. Boise State was doing absolutely nothing, jitters, strength, whatever, they were going nowhere. But, Georgia, we go out there and have 4 penalties on the 1st four snaps. This offense is abysmal. Please tell me again how great little Aaron Murray is. How many YARDS he threw for. His miserable little run there for all of what ? 2 yards, less than 2 yards. Dual threat. 6 sacks. Sitting back there without a care in the world. 28 unanswered consecutive points. Tell me again, how the Defense is to blame for that, as you tried to float past me in 2008 ?

Thomas Brown

Loss number 9 of the last 11 games Mark Richt’s “coaching staff” has put up, based upon rankings at game time vs Top 10 opponents.

Did we consider putting another quarterback in for 1 play ? No, they did. Several times. We did not. Again. As EVERY year.

Secondary. What secondary ?

WR. What WR ?

RB. What RB. Brandon Boykin ? I told you so. And, 4.43 is not fast folks.

OL ? What OL.

Uni. Oh, you mean the CLOWN SUITS Mark Richt said the players love ?

FB ? What fullback ?

7-28. You have got to be kidding me that that is not mismanagement of the talent here at UGA. 7-28.

Brandon Boykin tweet to Chris Petersen and Mark Richt tells him, that’s ok Brandon, just have to back it up, now. Oh, no. We were # 85 in kick-off returns last season and we are # 52 this morning, this season. And, this is what we do pre-game ? Have the head coach tell the player that he will have to back it up now.

Mismanagement of the talent around here.

# 72 in the nation at making 1st downs all last season.

You see any 1st Downs out there tonight ?

When did you leave the game ?

Oh, so Notre Dame lost. Auburn came back. LSU doubled up Oregon, even without their QB because they have a # 2 QB. Novel idea. None of any of that matters. It’s like watching Little League when your team gets knocked out of the tournament. Oh, tell me please how to be a great and supportive fan of this crappy football program ?

If not to say, here is our issue.

Mark Richt should never ever ever be allowed to ever hire or fire another coach in his lifetime. Curse at us again Mark Richt that you know what you are going and Mike Bobo is staying, just exactly as you told us about Willie Martinez. No different.

Thomas Brown

September 4th, 2011
5:49 am

This week, now, where is Brandon Pledger, we put Mark Richt’s record vs The SEC East on the line. You remember ? The DOWN division called The SEC East. Over the next Saturday, last 6 seasons then that night, Mark Richt will not have a winning record vs the DOWN division that is The SEC East, if he cannot win against South Carolina, who should have lost to East Carolina.

We’re the # 7 team in The SEC. We have been. We are. We continue.

13 Losses the last 27 games. And, it’s not just the losses, it’s the yahoos who run the blogs, who post on the blogs, who say oh please do not say anything that is not supportive. Please don’t point out what mismanagement really is.

Aaron Murray threw for x yards. Mark Richt has won x games. We have the Dream Team. We will beat Florida. Just wait until next year.

That is the quarterback number 8 who had a better game, head-to-head than the “Best Quarterback in The SEC.” He is now 6-8.

Desperation time will come. Mark Richt has no answers. None. His coaching staff will cost him his job. On his next job, instead of college roommates and praying buddies, he will actually never be allowed to hire the 1st coach.

I am a Georgia Bulldogs’ Football Program, fan. I am not a Mark Richt fan. I love the guy. He is a great man. Head Coach in college football, he is not. His decisions, such as running off 26 players who should have played vs Boise State, who did not, continue.

Why not 1 sack of Kellen Moore ? Aaron Murray was sacked 6 times, again.

We can still Win The SEC Championship.

You are so full of it. You are a Bible Thumper who is only a Mark Richt fan. Nothing else. Just a Mark Richt fan. No matter how witless his decisions.

Dawg fans, be calm. It’s only one game and against a team – and QB – that is really, really good. Those Broncs will beat most everyone this year and could hold their own against many NFL teams. And I’m sincere about this – no heckling, no sarcasm.
Beat SC next week at home and most is forgotten about this.
I still want my Bees to clobber you in November, but keep your chin-straps tight and and your spirits up.
After the entire season, take stock and if house-cleaning is warranted, do it. My guess is UGA will be in contention for SEC East.

Boise States 18 Starters are 5th year Seniors now thats a tremendous advantage. Offensive Line- Seemed to me that they got manhandled by BS front 4 and #71 got 2 penalties that were severe.

Yeah, yeah so we got beat ! But so did alot of other schools that was suppose to beat those Div. 2A schools as well.

Everyone one of you have a right to bash the dawgs because i know you care and ofcourse there are others who arent fans.

Defense- I thought Georgia played better and knew their assignments compared to last years 1st game but they got very tired with BS no huddle and ofcourse BS Q.B. is or should be in the Heisman race.

Im mean lets look at this…… BS returning 18 Seniors w/15 of those 5th Year Seniors, then they were ranked #2 in Defense and #2 in Offense last year with a possible Heisman.

Georgia played with heart and character and its really hard to say how they will turn out this year because everyones alittle rusty and they have got to get their timing down, i mean look around at all the other games and this proves my point.

Boise State could have beat any NCAA team yesterday. There are alot of adjustments to be made before next weeks game against S. Carolina and no doubt they are a better team than last years Conference Champs.

Eventhough Richt is on the bubble both Offense and Defense have alot more work to do and as painful as it may seem, we’re gonna get better and i saw alot of good things from certain players that gives me hope that we can compete.

Im not down on anyone thats bashing Georgia and now were gonna face another team that does alot of running than passing with a great running back Lattimore. We wont really know how Georgia is gonna fair this season til after the 4th game.

Though i really dont like Bobo i thought he called a fair game opposed to other games and i’d give him a C- but in reality not many teams could have pushed Boise State down the field and i think their defense
only allowed 9 pts a game last year.

This is just a game and we’re all Americans here who love the sport and its fun to voice our opinions and i would ask people to not get down on individuals who get on here and bash the Dawgs because to me they care as much as we do.

I watched the replay of the Miss St, SC and Ark games 4 times each. Had Ga ran the ball more in those games the outcome would of been different. The defense played better than what the record indicate.
If Crowell gets 20 to 25 carries a game, I believe we will go undefeated. If Murray pass on 1st and 2nd downs like he did last season, I think they will lose 2 games. The SEC won 5 straight NC because those teams had a good running game and a dominate defense.

How did that undeated prediction work out for you tony?
___________________________________________________________________________

#1 I can assure you, I’m no redneck. #2 Crowell did not get 20-25 carries……..that means they will not go undefeated. #3 In this game Murray passed on 1st and 2nd down like last season so therefore I believe they will lose 2 games this season.

LSU smashed the Ducks because they ran the football down their throats. LSU had 47 rushing attempts to the dawg’s 23 attempts.

Like I stated in my Aug 27th post, the sec won 5 straight NC because those teams had a good run offense.

Great comment Mike, I hope its true. I’ve supported CMR…….That was embarrassing loss. UGA was not prepared for that game. They were out coached. I’ve never seen UGA look this bad. A. Murray seemed to regress last night. He took some really bad sacks. Poor play calling on 1st and 2nd downs contributed to some of the six sacks. Other times he failed to recognize the blitz, and often he simply held on too long. I hope Mike is right, but i’m thinking like Thomas Brown.

Thank you, Rmikl. I am truly embarrassed by some of the Tech posts here. A lack of class shows most when one thinks his adversary is down.
I’m betting the team isn’t that ‘down’ – they know they played one of the best teams in the land – and lost.
Hopefully, these guys calling themselves ‘Buzz’-this and ‘Tech’-that didn’t go to Tech and are just Monday-Friday losers who must feel big at the expense of others’ being small.

I could care less if you don’t want the RICHT-0-FILES to say that The entire Bulldog Nation are not fans of Mark Richt’s “coaching staff.”

Further, RMikeI58, sir, the defense had the wrong game plan. And, made no adjustment. We should have gone after sacks of Kellen Moore after we won the coin toss. Not put this miserable offense on the field, and then never make the adjustment that what we were doing, giving up 28 consecutive, unanswered, points, was not working – and, that, we must sack Kellen Moore. We had success doing that.

As for your stats vs all 12 teams Boise State plays this entire season, none are ranked and none will end up ranked. Are you seriously sitting there trying to tell me of all people that # 2 Alabama and # 3 LSU would not have sacked Kellen Moore, and run the football outside – especially after we put our 1 running back in and saw his speed outside ?

I really enjoy reading the postings on here but rarely post any myself. After last nights game i have to say that I was really impressed with Boise St. If they can stay healthy I think they can go real far. Striking differences between these two teams. Boise St. methodically execute their plays. They block well. They tackle well. They are disciplined. Unfortunatelly i saw few if any bright spots for the Dawgs. The offensive line look like under-acheivers again. The defense look like they are lost….again. The receivers dropping passes like they are on crack…again. One bone-headed mistake snowballing into a series of bone-headed mistakes…again.

Mark Richt should try to learn a few things from Boise St. Its not all about size and speed.

Well, all my questions were answered…..

Report Card:

Defense: F+…….I think we had an interception…..
Offense: F………Yes, it was offensive to have to watch that crap
Coaching:F………Maybe this is not Richt’s true calling
Uniforms: F-……..I don’t think anymore needs to be said about the “Power Rangers” garb.
Execution: A……..Yes, I’m in favor of that
Intangibles: A+….Providing Greg McGarity has Kirby Smart on speed dial, and makes the call.

Overview: We would have been a winner @ Dragon-Con with our uniforms. We maybe could have won the game, had we been playing someone other than BSU (maybe the Charlotte Women’s Nursing and Midwives Academy), but I hear they have a hellava kicking game. We could have won, if we had a different coaching philosophy, say that of Elmer Fudd (his couldn’t be any worse than ours is). UGA was a “dream team”, as they were asleep all night.

Perhaps Georgia needs to consider a two-qb system like SC…Christian LeMay may have been the kind of running threat that Boise wasn’t prepared but, then again, I can’t think of Bobo and CMR doing anything that requires imagination. CMR is clearly out of this league; Richt was boosted in the early years by little more than luck and good assistant coaches (Van Gorder). He is finished as far as I’m concerned. I don’t care if he runs the table the rest of the way (any bets on that happening) I’m done with the stinking team this year and would love to see a “void out” where no one shows up between the hedges when they meet SC.

His facial expressions on the sidelines were apathetic, uninterested, aloof, emotionless…need I carry on? There is no passion on that sideline. With all the booster money going to those flashy new uniforms….hey dawg fans…you need new coaches, not new uniforms. Long season ahead and I will enjoy every loss.

Fellow Tech fans: keep in mind that the lone win against a ranked opponent the last two years was against Tech year before last.

Let’s see the Jackets actually beat them before we start giving them a hard time.

Besides, giving them a hard time about this just reminds then that they have beaten Tech the last two years and that there is something to feel good about.

Let’s just sit back and watch. If, at the end of the season, Tech has beaten them, then we can brag. In the mean time, let’s just silently enjoy their pain.

All you dream team recruits signing up to play for the Dawgs, might want to rethink that one. CMR is a nice guy, but, if you want coaching, you really need to think about what you want to accomplish. If you want a bunch of folks that make you feel good before the first kickoff, well, in that case UGA is your place.You make your choice, you get to live with it.

Trending downware. Do you think? CMR and his whole staff need to go. After last season and a loss to Central Florida in a bowl game this is what we got after an offseason of changes. The only thing that was different was the uniforms which I did not like either. Every bit of this is on CMR. Your players remain undisciplined. Why? Your offensive line is massive but cannot run block or pass block. Why? Your defense is supppose to be much improved in their second year in the 3-4 scheme but the DC much like Matrinez seems unable to make adjustments to take away what your opponent is doing to you over and over again or generate a fierce pass rush to help your secondary. Kellen Moore hardly broke a sweat. On offense your receivers dropping passes. Murray overthrowing wide open receivers, holding the ball too long, and time and again forcing the ball into tight spots. No imagination at all on offense short of one run by your starting cornerback on a reverse that was more athletic talent than any scheme. What did this coaching staff do since we last saw them last season? Forget about returning to national relevance because UGA is not even relevant in the south. No one respects UGA. No one fears UGA. CMR is responsible. He hired this coaching staff and the efforts of UGA for years now has been substandard. The AD should have bit the bullet and made the change last year but hope is eternal and this is like a bad episode ot the Twilight Zone where we keep waking up to the same bad results game after game and year after year.

Time for a reality check from a non Bulldog fan:

1. Boise State returned 25 seniors from an excellent 2010 team! I do not care how many 5 star recruits you sign….good players with experience trump great players with no experience.

2. One of Georgia’s weak spots in the last couple of years has been offensive line. The biggest Georgia homer on talk radio, Buck Belue, has been saying for months that the offensive line is a major area of concern. Georgia demonstrated last night what Belue has been saying for months…size does not always matter…talent and depth matter.

3. Another area of concern for Georgia as stated during last nights telecast….Georgia is very thin at the inside linebacker spots. Anyone with half a football brain knows that THE key to a 3 – 4 scheme is linebacker play. The big boys up front keep the linebackers “clean” to allow them to make plays. Ogletree went down early and….I believe….another inside linebacker was in and out of the game with injuries.

4. Georgia lost a ton of experience last year…both offensively and defensively…..this was most apparent at running back. Crowell will be a great back if he continues to work hard and keeps his nose clean. Presently, he is a freshman football player with NO experience and a ton of talent! In Georgia’s offensive scheme, your tailback has to know who…and how to block in the passing game. That is why he will split duty for the next couple of weeks.

5. Most experts have been predicting Georgia to be a 9-3 to 10-2 team this year…I thought that 10-2 was unrealistic for the reasons stated above….9-3 is a realistic goal…EMPHASIZE realistic!…10-2 or the ridiculous notion of National Champion has always been for the delusional!!! Georgia will have to keep key position mentioned above healthy to have a chance at 9-3. I believe 8-4 is a better bet. Based on the first weeks results I think that you will be favored to beat everyone on the schedule with the exception of South Carolina, Mississippi State, possibly Florida and Tennessee. I believe that you will win at least 1 of the 4 games. The rest of the schedule you should handle…I include in that list my beloved Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets….you see….I am an objective Yellow Jacket fan!

And now you know the rest of the story…. :-)

George P is correct, but I’ll go one more. Until Tech can beat UGA two years in a row, Tech fans need to just sit back and be quiet. Until Tech wins another bowl game, Tech fans have to accept they are not major college football.
UGA has unparalleled recruiting advantage with no in-state competition. Tech cannot recruit the blue chip athletes and provide them with a Turfgrass Management path. UGA’s perennial top-10 recruiting classes reflect that advantage. What is UGA doing with that advantage?
If UGA beats USCe, all will be forgiven. If UGA loses to USCe, is Richt’s job in jeopardy?

I was the second to worst player on a bad high school football team many years ago, so I don’t claim to have any special expertise. But some things did seem obvious to me:

-Boise State was, Richt is right, the best team on the field. Even given that UGA did not play to its potential.

-Murray was hyped as a great QB. He’s not. But he is and will be adequate. His real problem came from lack of protection from the O line. It’s hard to know if that came about because of ability of coaching (and keep in mind that part of it was the superior skill level from Boise State).

-The UGA defense actually looked pretty good for the first part of the first half. But the pace of the game wore them down. Think of how that lack of conditioning would have shown had the game been outside in the summer heat. What many thought would be an advantage for UGA would have been a disadvantage. I don’t think the new conditioning program proved effective.

-Boise State also won the coaching battle.

-USC didn’t look as good as I thought it would in its opening game. It is possible, but not likely, that UGA can win that one. After that it’s a cupcake schedule. But I do think – without massive improvements – there will be some losses during the cupcake portion.

We could’ve played Tech in this game but did not want them to change the rotation of the series. Glad we didn’t now. That gives us months to get ready for the triple option since that is all there is left to play for. And we thought this was the year we beat Florida and return to relevance. I am sick of hearing next year is the year we should be great. How many “next years” in a row have we had??? How many years do I have to call for Richt’s job? When will we care enough to fire a mediocre coach so we can become optimistic again???

We don’t recognize the other teams weaknesses. We don’t realize when things aren’t working. We can’t make it up and down the field without huffing and puffing. I’m sick of it.

The QB for SC is very quick to run, but GA has a good defense against the run. The QB’s problem was throwing the ball. I personally like Coach Richt, but if the media and fans keep doing what they are doing to him, he will be gone. Don’t you fans know some of the players read these blogs and will lose a lots of confidence in their coach from them? See what happened to Hewitts and Gailey? It’s all in the saying, “What have you done for me lately”.
Does anyone know of any other coach would risk coming to UGA knowing how quick the fans are to get down on them?

After next week UGA will be Oh and 2.

stop complaining about losing to Boise St. because they are just better than UGA. what you need to be complaining about is the fact that richt and company had nine months of knowing exactly what Boise was going to do and they could not even seriously compete. a program like UGA should ALWAYS be competitive regardless of the opponent.

O-line can’t block for either the run or the pass, QB has taken a step or two back, other than Charles no one can get open and catch a pass. One of our running backs still drops when touched by the first arm. the defensive line cannot get any push. the defense cannot get any pressure on the opossing QB. The LBs cannot cover the pass. The secondary cannot cover the pass. The whole team is not in good physical condition. The whole team gets lost sometimes on what they are supposed to do. The only thing that is working is the kicking game. Everything is so bad I don’t corrections can be made in time for it to make any difference. It will be another looong season for the bulldog nation.

Jeff:

Thanks for nailing down everything wrong with this program, and actually there is not alot that has to be said.

The taunting, the smack talking and the overall arrogance of the UGA program was shoved down their throats be a very talented Boise State program.

Boykin sends Peterson a message “Daring to kick the ball to him,” before the season starts, and CMR endorses this move, just back it up. Guess what, Boykin could no back it up. Maybe if UGA would spend less time taunting and smack talking, and more time focusing on what needs to get done, they might win a few games.

Then again, I suppose not, since this is a top-down issue, and there is no one at the top.

So many holes to fill. Wide receiver, O-line, linebacker. Short handed at running back. Fundamentals still missing (arm tackles, false starts, dropped passes) and basic execution lacking (kick coverage, blocking, pass protection). UGA could play BSU nine more times and would do very well to win three. Those games vs. SC, MSU, UF look a lot tougher this morning, Other than cakewalks against NMexSt and Coastal, can the Dawgs expect better than toss-ups the rest of the way?

Honestly I think I would rather see ga lose then my team win, thanks for the entertainment UGA on THE AGONY OF DEFEAT how long is too long b4 the change is made way too much talent to only have 2 sec titles to show for it uniforms were hideous

That kind of thuggish arrogance is allowed by Mark Richt. I would have sidelined the kid for the entire first game.

UGA players obviously don’t respect CMR as a Head coach. CMR will NEVER discipline his team because HE doesn’t understand the concept of DISCIPLINE himself. Sad.

I am sincerely asking this to all Georgia fans? What have you done in the last twenty, no thirty years that makes you think you should be a top ten team?

To everyone,
Did you notice the BSU players? I bet you will not read about them on the front page of the paper, just the sports page.
After every play, they handed the ball to the offial. Nothing else, just handed the ball to the official and went on to the next play. No jungle dancing after a score or a big play, just serious football. Focus and the emphasis on TEAM not the individual.
Get it.
They have been there before, this is not their first time and they act like it.
Would be good to take note of it for all football players, not just Dawgs.

The most telling moment I saw was y’alls #12 dropping a pass that hit him in the numbers. And all the shaken-up-on-the-play georgia players. At one point, I was mentioning to a friend how unfair it was that a bully WAC…er, MWC team was beating up on a poor SEC team. Granted, I’m a Tech man, but I WAS hoping for Tech to go 12-0 and uga to go 11-1 with that loss after Thanksgiving.

The thing is, your defense played VERY well the first two possessions. Had some fire and all that jazz. It just didn’t stick.

A few thoughts. I’m not a UGA or Tech fan, so I am unbiased here. The uniforms suck. Had to get that out of the way. You played #5 in the country. Did you REALLY expect to win? Are you THAT arrogant? Early in the games, I never see any other team celebrate so much about a normal defensive play. They go crazy. Do they not have enough sense to realize they are wasting energy when they do that? Don’t answer that. Now, the “wonderful” fans of UGA turn on their team after losing to #5. It just feeds the stereotype that the average UGA fan is just not that intelligent. Cool it, people. You’ll be barking next week. The Rebel flags will fly again, don’t worry. Mark Richt is class. He doesn’t fit at UGA. All of this said…….UGA is no better than a 4-7 team, so get over it.

It amazes me how many people like to jump on the put UGA down bandwagon. Yes, the football team is having major problems and it made me sick to watch the last part of the game last night. I like Richt as a person and I have been very supportive but I think we need a whole new coaching staff. We should not be playing like that with the talent we have. And to the guy you mentioned the G on the front of cars and the bulldog statue in the yard. I have both of those along with lots of other UGA stuff in my house. That will never change because I graduated from there and I love UGA. The football team winning or losing does not change my love for the school.

UGA - SEC Champions! TRUE DAWG FANS STILL BELIEVE. by Golden Dawg

September 4th, 2011

UGA!!! SEC Championship – I still believe.
Just beat South Carloina and the ship is righted.

UGA Dawgs!!! Please Don’t Take These Dawg-Haters and Fair Weather Fan’s Comments to heart. True Dawg Fans are with you -through thick and thin.

We have the talent to hang with anyone in the nation. Like everyone else, here are a few things I’d like to see done: for what its worth:

Grantham- Please Blitz a few times: Keep TE/RBs from catching passes across the middle. Dictate what they do instead of reacting to it.
LB/CB/S: Yall got to Put fear in everybody coming across the middle -even thinking about catching a pass- like Thurman, Blue and Davis did.
Running Backs – Hang in there. It will come. Study tape of USC all week.
Receivers – (Tough game) Here is tough love! Step Up!! We need you.
Bobo – We were very predictable! Roll Murray out alittle; give him options: DeepPass, DumpOff or Run. He is smart enough to make the right decisions and he’s a tough guy. This is not the NFL – Trust Your QB! He will save your job.
Tight Ends – Keep Carrying Us. But now expect teams to put more effort into shutting you down.

Like I said in the beginning: Keep Your Heads Up.

Based on yesterday, USC, Bama and LSU are very beatable.
Just beat South Carolina and UGA is back in the driver’s seat.
DAWGS “We Got This!” SEC Champions!

TRUE DAWG FANS STILL BELIEVE.

And where was Ken Malcome last night????? We were short on running backs and Samuel even got hurt. Why did Malcome play? Was he suspended?? Samuel sucks at running back.

Boise State went about their business with no demonstrations of taunting, while the Georgia players did those high stepping things everytime they gained five yards. Folks, CMR has lost control of this team, he has lost control of recruiting players who would bring a little class to UGA Football, instead what he’s gotten are a bunch of overrated, ego seeking, can’t spell my name type of, and I hate to keep using this word, players who the University of Georgia should not even look at to represent our flagship university…….the whole state of Georgia should be outraged by this classless display.

The predictions prior to the game that someone posted are pretty damning of not being in touch with the reality of the situation. UGA is a sinking ship and Andy Staples (I think it was him) was right to call us the most out of touch fan base he’s ever seen. We’re living off Herschel Walker and 1980. He was at the game last night. You know who pulled this same “get in touch with your past” move was Chizik over at Auburn with Bo. But that was year 1 of Chizik’s time at Auburn. The Herschel thing looks like a “me too!” It’s fine by me, but it’s not an original thought, it’s copy cat.

Original thoughts are for national champion caliber teams and coaches like an Auburn. Who may go on a tear after their win-loss game yesterday. Now I know bringing up Auburn irritates some of you, but get over it. Auburn > UGA. Because UGA = Ole Miss.

Get a grip, learn to accept where we are, and then we can rebuild with a new coach and a new attitude. But this is 3 or 4 years in the making to get this bad and frankly you could see it coming for longer than that.

But thanks for the day after starting the “we’re going to go undefeated from here on out!” That’s not to unlike “we’re going to beat Boise!!!!” Means nothing with this team. They’re not good.

Coach Bobo simply is way over his head, QB’s coach is where he needs to be, all night long he didn’t run more than five toss sweeps, never did anything to stretch the defense out to tire them out. I was a proponent of his against all the negatives UGA FANS have put on him, but it’s soooo obvious he can’t coach and don’t know how to utilize what he has. Get rid of him. Or this program is dead this year.

Congratulations Boise State. That was an impressive performance and there is NO DOUBT who was the better team.

What we saw/learned:

Men beating boys.
Discipline and scheme trumps unbridled athletic ability.
Coaching can make a huge difference.
Georgia is, unfortunately, still probably the Georgia of the past 2-3 years (and I am perhaps the world’s biggest “homer”).

Once again, very well done and good luck with your season.

UGA2002, how bout you geta clue. I could give a rats a$$ what Andy Staples or whoever says. Every program has delusional fans. Fans aren’t living off of Herschel Walker. They are expecting to field a team that can compete. They have far superior players than Boise but one team was preapared and the other wasn’t. Fans may think Georgia could be better than they end up because they put out great players into the NFL and have had multiple Top 10 finishes the last 10 years including 2 SEC titles and have done so in the past. They SHOULD expect more.

As fans you have every right and are expected to hope for a win. But in reality, Georgia lost to a superior team. So quit drinking the SEC Kool-Aid and this is not a knock against the best conference this is a knock against some teams in that conference that do not add to the conference strength.

It actually looked like Boise State was just going through passing drills in practice without a defense on the field. It was so easy. Your defense never got a sack, rarely defended any passes, and was gasping for air in the second quarter. UGA is a TERRIBLE team. I predict 3 wins. Tech scores 50 points on that defense. LMAO

No intelligent football fan or relevent sports commentator in America was suprised by what they saw last night in the Georgia Dome. The only ones that were suprised were the delusional Georgia fans and the polically correct Georgia media that wanted to believe that Georgia was not as average as they really are. Even Cubs fans are hopelessly optimistic on opening day.

UGA is a proud and slightly above average college football team (regardless what their fans and southeastern scouting services tell you). The only teams they “own” are Vandy and Georgia Tech and that gap has rapidly closed the past 3 years.

The dawg nation needs to swallow it’s pride (among other things).

Same undisciplined bunch of overated, out of shape, lay down football players. Showed their true colors. Unfortunately the whole nation got to see the overhyped “well dressed” mess that is GA football! Way to represent the 2nd tier of the SEC!

Not to pretty to look at but an in your face old style of coach. So we don’t win every game – we get over it. But putting nearly 700 yards on the field sure is a good sign – no matter who you play. Just play football and stop trying to be something you are not. Then maybe you’ll start winning.

It’s not racist to say the players (all of them) acted ridiculous when there was a good play. One good play doesn’t win games. They need to remember that the game is 60 minutes of hard playing. Murray had a hard time not over-throwing or even just getting rid of the ball quickly. The receivers acted like there was oil all over their gloves. The defense just sucked. Boise St. was the better team last night. Better coached and more disciplined. Outside of Georgia, no one expected the Dawgs to win. Next week is when the season really begins. UGA needs to make some big changes or the same thing will happen.

On a different note, I was highly embarrassed by the way the UGA “fans” (if you can call them that) acted at the game last night. Leaving the game before it’s over is ridiculous. The comments being made and the way they acted just make me sick. All I’ve heard (from Boise fans and the TV announcers) is what lousy fans Georgia has. If I was a player, I would lose heart seeing the “fans” act that way too!

3. The off-season conditioning program.
4. Big, fat linemen are better than smaller, quicker linemen.

I’m embarrassed as an alumni to be represented by this group. Look back at the quiet dignity exhibited by Herschel Walker. He let his actions speak for him.

But know that you have your retirement paid for – maybe yall can go fishing together in the off season– it is probably coming sooner than later- hey honey say Go Dawgs!!!!

Pathetic. Forced to wear Power Ranger jammies on national TV and thrashed by a team in Idaho of all places. How does it feel to be the byotch of a sleazy commercial entity and a team whose defense was outweighed by what, 50 lbs a man, and with an in-state recruiting network equal to the Bahamas? And, speaking of recruiting, anyone notice where most of the fine in-state talent is going, now? It ain’t UGA. Dream team my rear end. More like wet dream team. Nice job, Rev. Oh, and great sideline demeanor as usual, no emotion, nothing. What has happened to the once proud pups? Erk, oh, Erk, whereart thou. More like Erkel, now.

Just like always, all we heard this Summer was how Ga would win this game. How they were back. How the defense would be so better. Yeah a guy who does a choke hold sure shows maturity and intelligence. Richt is just waiting to be let go. right now he’s just trying to teach these kids how not to screw up in life. Football comes down the list. Where are all the posters who said the D would be “back”. I wrote that when you lose 75% of your offense, are playing a hesiman qb, that it’s insane to think you will win. And all I heard was idiocy from uga fans. Enjoy youe pathetic losing season, losers.

Three penalties on first possession pretty well showed the preparation of this team. The coaches failed to have this team ready and then got out-coached as the game went on. I do not see the desperation to be better in our coaches or players. It was an embarrasing performance.

integrity and character – displayed by the student athletes representing Boise St. 5 star recruits also need integrity and character to be successful student athletes. That small fact has escaped CMR and Thuga fans – keep signing marginal citizens and you’ll keep getting the same as you witnessed yesterday. Greasy dreadlocks, chest thumping over routine plays, total lack of discipline and team concept, a fanbase dominated by illiterate rednecks with high school degrees who trash all in sight when they lose. UGA represents all that is wrong with college athletics at the top level. The red power ranger uniforms, the prima donna attitudes, and CMR joking and laughing during the post game that yet another 5 star marginal citizen would definitely be playing next week — all embarrasing to any educated citizen of our state. Quit with all the THUGS, get a coaching staff and sign kids (yep, these are all teenagers remember) capable of successfully comprehending college level courses with no predilection for criminal behavior (such as smashing mailboxes as a high school senior). See Boise St. quarterback if you need an example of the type of students UGA needs to shed THUGA culture.

UGA football isn’t fun anymore. That has nothing to do with winning or losing. It has a lot more to do with watching the same mistakes over and over and over again. Whatever good Richt did for UGA, and I’m sure it was considerable, the program fell apart on his watch. He’s fired almost everyone that he could. He should do the honorable thing and resign because he’s done a terrible job as a coach. I think that’s been obvious since the 2009 Tennessee game. But I’m comforted to know that he still finds things to laugh about.

Did you really think the Dawgs were going to beat the 4th rated team in the country? 35 to 21 is about right. You put the Boise QB and the Boise coach on your team…..and the Dawgs win….that simple. Mark Richt does about a little with the talent he recruits as any coach in America. HIs time at Georgia may be coming to an end. I think….at this point….Georgia will be 0-2 after next week. But maybe the Dawgs will improve a lot this week and pull off an upset. But not likely.

But….I can tell you this…..Muschamp and Weis’ time at Florida is just beginning. Florida Atlantic is not very good……but Florida looked like a completely different team. They are extremely well coach….and they are very talented on both sides of the ball. But I am not sure the Gators could beat Boise right now….but they would sure look better losing to them than Georgia did. Based on what I saw last night and this weekend…..Florida will most likely be 4-0 when they play Bama in THE SWAMP. And that game will be big.

@DogDawg: I agree with you. It’s been my feeling for quite some time that Coach Richt, and Mike Bobo are the reasons this team is suffering due to not getting better. Ultimately, I blame the booster club for insisting that you have a coach who is easy to market to the fans of GA football instead of insisting on a coach with a verifiable, quality track record…The same booster club that insisted on firing the defensive coordinator Martinez while keeping GA family Mike Bobo…Now it’s time to pay for that as well as arrogance based recruiting philosophy can sadly affects not only football but all other sports at Georgia.

How disgusting to watch an unprepared team as evidenced by 3 penalties in an opening drive and needing a timeout because your time is not in physical shape to stop a drive. I love Mark but this is the first step in his last season.

The lucky red panties didn’t help much, did they? At least Mark Richt got paid a ton of money by Nike. That’s something. So he’s making about four million now, plus the under-the-table money from Nike.

Leave the chicken money and keep our home games in Athens where they belong. The second STUPID thing was taking the ball first. The crowd was anxious and lubricated and loud. Many of the UGA faithful do not understand that they need to be QUIET when the UGA offense is on the field especially in a dome. If you saw the first two series for Ga. you know what I mean on these two points. KEEP OUR HOME GAMES IN ATHENS! KEEP OUR HOME GAMES IN ATHENS! KEEP OUR HOME GAMES IN ATHENS!

We are past time for a change. Richt is like the man who keeps changing his clothes because everyone around him doesn’t like the smell (note he doesn’t noticed the odor). Greg McGarity has come in to a house on fire and can’t put out the flames for trying to decide which part will burn first and what is worth saving. I think he needs to just let it burn. As much as i hate to see the team I have loved since childhood fall into ruin, I don’t think we have any choice. Come the conclusion of the Tech game, look for Richt to be handed his walking papers along with the entire staff. This mess will take a while to clean and make right again. It’s not going to happen next season, and probably not for a while after that. All I can say is this is a lesson, a much needed lesson in resilience and patience for Bulldog Nation. Sad, but true.

Same old UGA. Defense is horrible and does not belong in the SEC. Offense is a joke…always a wing and a prayer nothing consistent. Richt is a nice guy as they say and recruits well enough. He should have fired Bobo and could have done much better than Grantham. Unfortunately, he will suffer the consequences and be out of work next season. Spurrier may not be as gracious next week and it could get really ugly. It all comes down to bad coaching. All the stupid penalties. Lack of preparation. No real game plan. The talent is there to be competitive. Need a change…I would accept new OC and DC…but unfortunately too late for that.

Mark Richt has been at odds with his bosses at Georgia since before the bowl game. It has shown up in his attitude more than anything else. Something was done to really upset him and his days are numbered at UGA. The bigger issue is that UGA has some of the best athletes in the country, Who is going to coach these kids and get along with senior management? In conferences like the SEC, there is not a lot of room for soap drama.

And also the improvements that the pregame radio show said had happened in the off season……yea right our players were dropping like flys. Coach Joe T. sucks too. Crowell didn’t impress me at all. Who will be the reject team that will beat us this year? central Fl last year. If anyone shows up sat in red (maybe the gamecocks will not take over sanford stad.) you should chant fires the uga coaches the entire game.

(full disclosure – I’m a GT guy)

I think this is being blown WAY out of proportion – y’all played a much better team (yes, they do have those outside the SEC) & got beat. honestly, it could have been a LOT worse – Boise easily could have won that game by 28. your guys could have rolled over & accepted the inevitable outcome but they fought for 60 min which at the end of the day is all you can ask for/expect.

I think the most legitimate gripe Georgia fans have at this point is those uniforms – OH, THE HUMANITY! PLEASE tell me we aren’t going to be seeing those all season?!?…

I didn’t come over to gloat and make negative comments about the coaches. However, the ridiculous fans that always thinks they are going to win championships is really getting old. This team is only slightly better than the one that George O’Leary’s team toasted in last years Liberty Bowl. All this hype about a dream team is just that, but one comment about Richt I will make. He has brought in year after year questionable characters to play the fine program at UGA. Maybe some of the leadership should take the blinders off an understand that he talks one way but does exactly what he learned at FSU and take players with questionable character to win at any cost. It’s catching up with him and if he doesn’t turn this around he’s going to take the program down. Take a quick look at what Tech did and it cost them dearly, so don’t let this happen to the Dawgs.

I cannot believe after all the BS we were fed all summer about conditioning and our new strength coach how Boise State absolutely controlled the line of scrimmage and manhandled our NFL size offensive line. Pathetic and the display of all our defense patting their helmets asking to come out of the game cause the poor babies were tired at the very beginning of the 2nd half while Kellen Moore sliced and diced them was beyond belief. For all the Georgia fans who thought Boise State was not in our class – what a rude awakening. Their athletes and coaching was far superior. Case Closed. Now we have to watch Spurrier run the score up on us next week at home. I am getting nauseated already.

Why, Why, Why, did McGarity and Adams choose to play this game to embarrass the program? Could it be that they have set up Richt for failure?

Bobo is a moron. How many times did he run a draw play from the shotgun formation in the first half and pick up 1 yard? To make it worse, he starts the opening possession of the 3rd quarter in the I formation moving the ball on runs and play action passes. Gets into Boise territory then goes to the shotgun again and what happens? A false start penalty, another shotgun draw that picks up 3 and a dropped pass by T King. Then another penalty forces a 55 yard field goal attempt. Not sure if they every lined up in the I formation again the rest of the night!

Bobo – line up in the I and pound the rock!!! Then pass off the play action. It is not rocket science. You have a huge offensive line, you are waisting them running draw plays from the shotgun! If I see the offense line up in shotgun formation on first down again, I think I will lose my mind.

What a waist of talent. If we don’t see improvment against SC, this season is going to be over before it gets started good.

Folks, this is what happens when you try to ” out athlete” people instead of playing solid fundamental football. Football is simply blocking and tackling. It’s not schemes on defense or play calling on offense. Where I coaches are lacking is we don’t teach or reinforce fundamentals. We can’t block. We sure as heck don’t tackle. We recruit five star athletes who can are big, fast, and can run but who don’t know how to play football on a championship level.

IMO our coaches should start NOW practicing the way you do with 6th and 7th graders and spend the majority of their time working on fundamental physical play instead of schemes and game plans.

I can stomach most anything when it comes to Georgia football. But I can’t stomach seeing us getting our butts knocked off the ball and our five star defenders trying to arm tackle someone else’ 3 stars.

Coach Richt blamed pass protection on 3rd downs. Most 3rd downs were long, necessary passing downs. Why not look at what WASN’T happening on 1st and 2nd downs to put the team in that position? Offensive line may be BIG but they are not skilled nor well coached. Aaron Murray is overrated and T. King can’t catch now?? Not unexpected that in a 3-4 def we can’t get to an immobile qb. Just a shame we couldn’t apply pressure and were unable to pick up the screens they threw at us with ease. It’s like we didn’t know they would set up screens on blitzes we couldn’t disguise. Frustration will only get worse next Saturday. Coach Richt may want to put his house on the market this week. Why wait until he’s 0-2.

Your DB’s fly around and hot-dog, but they don’t hit hard and can’t cover anybody. You have no linebackers and no running backs. Your little QB is pretty average and will hit a pass once in a while but not consistent. What in the world makes you think this team is even as good as last year’s losers? You have a few poor little teams on your schedule so maybe you can go 6 and 6 and get to another little bowl.

Hopefully this pathetic coaching staff will be gone at the end of this season, and UGA fans will finally get a coach that can evaluate coaches and players. I don’t think McGarity will fire Richt during the season, but if he has any thoughts of retaining this coach and staff after watching yet another pitiful performance, then he needs to go as well. This will make the 4th year that UGA fans have had to watch an unprepared, and unmotivated team. For all you Richt lovers, you got what you wanted. Another painful lose, and another mediocre season coming up. There is no way Richt or the coaching staff he has hired could win at any SEC school. These coaches aren’t talented or experienced enough to know how to prepare a game plan that will be successful against the top coaching staffs they run up against in the SEC. All of Richt’s hires have been pitiful, and a good leader is judged by the decisions he makes when it comes to hiring and firing top employees.Unfortunately, Richt has failed miserably at the biggest hires he has made. In fact, he has really only hired one good coach since he has been at UGA, and that was Vangorder, then he wouldn’t do what it took to keep him, because he wanted his best friend(Martinez) to be his D.C. That was one of the worst promotions Richt has made, couple that one with BoBo, who had no O.C. experience, and he had only coached Q.B’s for a couple of seasons, and you have the 2 worst coordinators in the SEC on one team. Then he hires McClendon who had no major college coaching experience, and let’s him coach receivers, while every other major school in the SEC has a wide receiver coach with some type of N.F.L. background or they have coached at a major program. Then he hires Will Friend from U.A.B, and he is another terrible hire. He hired him because he was a good friend of Bobo’s, and that’s who bobo wanted. Another awful decision by a CEO. Then he hires this linebacker coach from the Redskins, and he allowed Grantham to hire him, because they were friends. I mean you can’t be serious, here is a head coach getting paid $3 million dollars to make rational decisions when it comes to hiring top assistants, and what does this idiot do? He hires friends of his O.C, and D.C, just like he did when he hired Martinez, and Bobo. This guy just doesn’t get it, and he has proven time and time again that he is in over his head, and he is not a good head coach. He has failed at every aspect of coaching, hiring assistants, retaining quality assistants, evaluating high school talent, coaching up the talent when it arrives on campus, preparing a descent game plan on offense and defense, making adjustments during games if the plan isn’t working, team discipline off the field, and especially on the field. That about sums up Richt, a good guy, but a terrible head coach, and a coach that has no clue on how to turn this sinking ship around. But like i said, UGA fans only have to watch this mediocre coach and his staff one more year. The problem is this head coach has put UGA fans through 4 mediocre seasons, and it will take the new coach 2 or 3 more years to turn this thing around, so thanks RICHT for 7 pitiful years. Go walk away with your $3 million and join billy graham. PLEASE!!!

Its a shame Georgia and Boise couldn’t have traded offensive coordinators prior to the game. Mike Bobo is clueless and can’t out smart the defenses in college football. Mark Richt needs to take back over the play calling and stop treating the games like they are a FCA event Richt is a good christian man and that’s great I’m a christian also but he has got some real problems with this football team right now and either needs to do what it takes to fix the problem or go elsewhere.

The first game of the year, it has nothing to with the conference play, and you boo? Why would any recruit in their right mind want to play in front of that? The Dome “fans” were pathetic. GO DAWGS!

no, i don’t see an issue with him laughing at Chip Towers. he wasn’t laughing that we lost a game, he was ’snickering’ at Chip(some, like Jeff, aren’t smart enough to see that). no issue with that whatsoever. i do however have an issue with coming out and looking like we did, on a ‘National Stage’, as he put it. Hate to say it, but he really needs to do something drastic, like take back play calling duties(if not, he’s putting his future fate in M Bobo’s hands, which isn’t good- or smart)…

That game last night was one of the worst offensive play-called game i’ve ever seen! Not UGA games i’ve ever seen, but of all college football games i’ve ever seen.
If their game plan was to run the ball up the middle 30 times from 10 different formations… than CMR or Bobo, who ever came up with that, should be gone right away. Not at the end of the season.

The minute they ran wide, Boykin goes 80 yds. What do they follow it up with on the next 2 series? 5 runs up the middle. I know you have to run to be balanced, but be creative and not as predictable as the temperature. Game was over at halftime.

HORRIBLE.

I’m a Bama fan who was pulling for UGA last night. Gotta say I was shocked at the conditioning of UGA’s players. It’s one thing to lose to a good team, and Boise is a very good team. But it’s another for defensive players to be raising their hands, begging to be taken off the field because they’re gassed. A lot of teams run the no-huddle these days. UGA should have had the conditioning to handle that, especially in the air-conditioned Ga Dome.

But these things do happen sometimes. Bama lost to Utah a few years ago. And maybe UGA can get it together and have a good season. But they didn’t look good last night, and those uniforms only seemed to make it all worse. UGA normally has green looking uniforms. Get back in ‘em and beat South Carolina next week.

Please remove my helmet

September 4th, 2011
11:23 am

Did anyone notice how many of the UGA players “lost” their helmet. This was no accident, mostly. Each time a helmet popped off, the camera would focus on the helmet on the ground and then to the player who lost it as he slowly showed his pretty face and would deliberately slide it back on. Finally I realized it was no accident. Then I noticed number 29, Jarvis Jones, actually pull off his helmet by himself, but the camera didn’t notice it. Then about five plays later his helmet mysteriously came off again. The announcer and camerman noticed the helmet on the turf and then focused on Jones’s pretty face and he slowly put it back on. All this tells me that there are too many UGA players are more interested in the limelight than being concerned they were being whipped by BSU. Pure showboating. Richt’s teams the last few years have a common theme, no leadership, discipline and an attitude that the they are more important than the team. A side note: Boise State looked disciplined, called plays that constantly had UGA guessing wrong and flat outcoached UGA on both sides of the ball. All this done with no 4 or 5 star athletes. UGA needs leadership, on and off the field. There are too many true freshmen starting. In fact, UGA has more starting freshmen than GT! With about 30 years of getting the “dream” team athletes, why start freshmen who make freshmen mistakes? Even Herschel Walker did not start the first three games as a freshman! Bottom line is Richt has an inferior coaching staff. He has hired badly with Grantham who had not improved the defense one iota, in fact, they have been worse with him. Bobo was a very smart quarterback and with David Green coaching was simple. But let’s give one credit where it is due. Kevin Moore is a great quarterback with NFL accuracy. He is cool in the pocket and has a team of veteran players who do not showboat like UGA does all the time. When all the hype is done, they just came out and whipped UGA in every possible way, offense, defense, coaching, strategy, attitude, toughness, and class. I thought I would never, ever pull for Boise State but I believe they are the real deal and not because they dominated an overrated UGA team, it’s the way they did it. No, they would not win every week against an SEC team, but they would against the weakest ones, UGA, obviously.

We will be the underdog against the likes of MISS ST,SC,AUB,FL & 3 of those games are home games.Who would have thought?

Aaron Murray might be the most overrated QB in the country. He laid down like a little —– on the last play- just hung it up completely. Anybody that compared Murray to Kellen Moore should have their press card pulled for life.(um, Mark Bradley) The strategy was horrible as others have pointed out- Bobo was a clown when he played for the Dawgs and is still a clown today. But outside of that, where is the talent? We’ve heard all about the talent, and I’m just not seeing it. Don’t get me started on Crowell- he looked like a high school punk who thinks he can make one move and take it to the house. And he’s too skinny. Look at all of the top tier RB’s(outside of LaMichael James) and you won’t see any that skinny. Richard Samuel wouldn’t sniff the field at Georgia Tech either..

And Jarvis Jones, the one we’ve heard about all offseason, he made plays alright. About 20-30 yards downfield and then lost his helmet every time. The defensive backfield was atrocious.

Sorry folks, all your problems ARE NOT related to coaching. Sure, it sucks royally, but this talent we’ve heard about all offseason just didn’t show up.

I am sorely disappointed. I expected better. Kellen Moore carved the Dawgs like a spiral ham. Peterson was the better coach.

Most disappointed in:
Preparedness
Penalties
Mike Bobo’s play calling
Execution
Offensive line
Defensive line
Pass rush
Injuries
Richard Samuel
Tevaras King
Aron Murray’s first half
Orson Charles’ blocking
Crowell’s blocking
Marlon Brown’s disappearance
Hurry up offense that waits at the line of scrimmage for a play to be called
Pass coverage
Special teams
3rd and 16 draw plays
Uni’s were terrible
Linebackers were absent

The few bright spots:
Brandon Boykin
Malcom Mitchell
Orson Charles receiving
Aron Murray’s second half
Isaiah Crowell looked promising
Georgia’s fans didn’t start any fights in the stands

Boise State proved to me that they were at least the #5 team in the land.
If Chris Peterson was interviewing for Richt’s job, he passed the test as did his staff.

I think the D-line will improve and the O-line will only face two or three more teams with the D-front of Boise State.

I went into this thinking that our new strength and conditioning program was a good idea. maybe not. The fact that UGA was obviously winded for most of the game was apparent. And it must have been especially noticeable on the field. Interesting story in the Idaho state newspaper. The Boise tailback, Doug Martin, had this to say:

“We were a little more in shape than they were, so our hurry-up offense really had an effect,” said Martin, who rushed for 57 yards and a touchdown.”

September 4th, 2011

The Boise State players may not be as fast or athletic but they sure as hell are smarter and more disciplined. They play as a team and give it their all on every play. Their coaches reward that effort by providing the team with a game plan that says ” I trust you guys to make the plays “. He doesn’t have to “dumb down” the play book like Georgia coaches have done. This makes the Dawgs so predictable on offense and defense that any team with mediocre talent will beat them.
Richt has not figured this out. He still believes he can win simply with superior talent and doesn’t need to be creative. It must be extremely frustrating to the players who have no say so over play calling, to not be trusted to blitz when the play obviously calls for it, or allowing the quarterback some freedom to change plays when needed…..like Boise players do. Richt’s biggest problem is his lack of trust in his players to play the game on the field.
Great coaches put their trust in their players and the players in turn reward that trust by “not letting him down”. Richt keeps them on a short leash which says I think you will screw up if you don’t do exactly what I say….and nothing else.
He has got to go. Just ask yourself one question….what would Saban do with all that talent. I think we all know the answer to that.

I was really disappointed. I expected the Dawgs to be more physical and better prepared. They looked exactly like the team from last year. Bobo needs to go. I can’t believe we kept running up the middle when it was apparent the offensive line was not doing the job. The defense started good but once again, they turned into last year’s defense. This team WAS NOT prepared. The whole coaching staff needs to be replaced. I have always been on Coach Richt’s side but this is too much.

UGA’s offense last night looked a lot like Florida last year . Bobo failed MISERABLY. Samuel 7 carries for 12 yds. Our dc, where’s the blitz package you promised when hired. Jarvis Jones looked sharp and Crowell will be fine . Our kids are very poorly coached , its disappointing as a player to know your team could be excelling when failing miserably. NO WAY Branden Smith would see the field next week . Try him on offense he WILL NOT TACKLE ANYONE. Its sickening watching our dbs react so slowly to a play.

All I heard all week was how the Big Bad Boys of the SEC was going to pound their opposition. . GA Lost, Ole Miss Lost, Auburn and South Carolina should have lost and everyone else played patsies. . . . .Only LSU showed up. . . .bottom line . . . . SEC not as scary as it used to be. . . .in time everyone catches up! Get used to it

Commenting on these earlier comments from Dawg fans:

But, he won the division a decade ago, so he has earned the right to destroy the program, as all of you wizard writers kept reminding us the last few years. Is 4-8 good enough for the AJC writing staff, or does he have to have them losing to Division II schools before fans are justified in saying enough is enough? We’re almost as worthless as Tech at this point.

All-American athletes everywhere, a fantastic QB, stud freshmen RB and WR, and two 350+ D linemen.
How does THIS scenario fail? Awful playcalling and preparation..That’s how

As a Vol fan who expected UGA to win this matchup against a tough opponent in what amounted to a home game for the Dawgs, I must say that the two above comments expressed by Dawg fans sound eerily familiar to what many UT fans were stating during the final three years of Coach Fulmer’s time in Knoxville. Incompetent staff at both places w/a head coach who was too loyal to his assistants. Whereas Fulmer wouldn’t get rid of people like Pat Washington or Randy Sanders, Richt has the same issue w/Bobo, Garner (who is only on the staff for his recruiting abilities),and his new Dcoordinator. Superior athletes? UT had them, UGA has them. But without sound coaching of discipline, fundamentals, and making adjustments during a game it doesn’t matter who big, strong, or fast your team is. At some point an administration has to put the past glory in the rearview mirror and ask itself are we still moving forward or are we treading water trying to maintain competitively speaking. If UGA can’t turn it around quickly you best hope that your AD already has his short list. Because it won’t get better. Trust me. Good luck the rest of the year. Except for that one game in October.

Our O-Line gave up a 6-pack of sacks. Our pretty helmets scattered the field. Passes were dropped from fear of stampeding Broncos. We were sorely out of shape, huffing and puffing for air inside the 72 degree dome. Ex- one Boykin gem, our running game did not exist. Crowell had no clue on pass blocking and Murray’s internal clock was running slow. Our LARGE O-Line was manhandled. Our uniforms were pretty for Arena football. Our players did not contain, while the Bronco players played with smarts and discipline. We were one red ball of HYPE…and what does our coach do in the post game interview? Accept mediocrity and LAUGH!!!!!!!!! No more mediocrity. We need hard nosed coaches who can instill humility, discipline and a winning attitude. Richt’s days are numbered and fast approaching the end.

Being a good Christian and a good person are not qualifications for a college football coach. The University President should have gone into the locker room at halftime, fired Richt and appointed him Team Chaplin.

UGA fans were just unrealistic. They had a losing season last year and lost to UCF in the bowl game. What changed to make them believe they could beat Boise State? Nothing. Don’t be so hard on yourself UGA. Your team is not that good this year. It’s not a knock to UGA, necessarily. It’s just the way it is right now. College football is cyclical and UGA is down. Time to adjust your expectations.

As a lifelong member of the Bulldog Nation let me offer an apology to the college football world. Because of UGA’s inability to block & tackle we all must now endure four months of BSU demanding that they be considered in the same conversation as Bama, LSU & Oklahoma
