Shaw was such a poor official that they made he head od officials for football to get him off the field and they will not let him answer questions at media day or at other time when his authority is in question
I love the SEC but too many times have they looked the other way when Ala. is concerned.
But the way have you noticed how bad the official were in all of football this year. Iknow instent replay has to do this but many times they get it wriong after a closer look i.e. the game where the Colts knees were on the ground way beforte the pass was thrown How many agree?

This story needs to be put to bed. The more they talk about this hit, the more UGA seems like poor losers. Football is a violent sport. A QB that throws an interception has two options: get off the field quickly, or try to make a tackle and deal with the consequences of being a defender. Helmets will crash together on a hard hit, which this was. Dial is 50% bigger than Murray – it was going to hurt.

Either way, did it affect the outcome of the game? Murray seemed to be able to put together some great drives in the second half. There were no ill effects.

Mr. Schultz, I believe you have watched enough football to know that this is how the game is played. You are pandering to your UGA readers by continuing to discuss this. If you want to prevent something like this from happening again, then make the QB off limits after an INT. Or teach them to be aware that they will be blocked and probably by someone very big and fast.

As a Bama fan, the correct call would’ve been a personal foul on Alabama. The ref missed it. SInce the ref missed it we should suspend the player?…Not in my opinion. If anyone should be suspended maybe its the ref who witnessed the play. Quinton DIal was doing what defenders are taught from pee-wee to pro football and that is to take out the quarterback when there is an interception. Murray shares blame here too, he needs to know that he is a live defender and eligible to be layed out on block as he was. The hit was helmet to helmet which deserves a penalty, but I have no problem with the intent of the play.

Jeff Schultz may want to go back and review his own words about eye-gouging:

Meyer goes soft on Spikes with half-game suspension

1:16 pm November 2, 2009, by Jeff Schultz

Urban Meyer just took, “Stand by your man,” a little too far.

Florida coach Urban Meyer’s apparent policy on eye-gouging is now clear. Only a successful blinding or maiming can result in a full-game suspension.

Meyer suspended Brandon Spikes for only the first half of the Gators’ next game against Vanderbilt for eye-gouging Georgia running back Washaun Ealey.

I’m not sure if missing one half of a Vanderbilt game really qualifies as discipline. But apparently SEC commissioner Mike Slive didn’t want to get in Meyer’s way on this one. I guess Slive only worries about the real serious issues: sound bites about referees, not trivial matters like jamming fingers into eyeballs.

What happened Saturday certainly did not affect the outcome of Georgia’s 41-17 loss to Florida. The Bulldogs themselves have devolved into one of the nation’s most-penalized and least-disciplined teams. Meyer felt compelled to say the linebacker was retaliating for earlier incidents that resulted in him having his helmet knocked off and being poked in the eye (he said).

But Spikes’ act was on another level.

“I don’t condone that,” Meyer told reporters in Florida. “I understand what goes on on the football [field], but there’s no place for that. We’re going to suspend Brandon for the first half of the Vanderbilt game. I spoke with him. That’s not who he is. That’s not who we are. He got caught up in emotion.”

Ealey was not available for comment Monday. It was a day off for Georgia players (the NCAA mandates one day off per week for players). Coach Mark Richt declined comment on the incident Sunday night.

But that didn’t stop this from snowballing into a national story Monday. The strongest comments came from Mike Golic, co-host of ESPN’s morning, “Mike and Mike” radio show. Golic has some credibility. He was a defensive lineman at Notre Dame and an eight-year NFL veteran. He has been at the bottom of a few of these piles. So what does it mean when he calls this, “one of the biggest chicken-bleep things I’ve seen in my life”?

And what does it mean when he says it was worse than when Oregon’s LeGarrette Blount punched Boise State’s Byron Hout in the season opener? (Blount initially was suspended for the full season by Oregon. But several weeks later the school announced a tentative reinstatement, and he may return this week against Stanford.)

“You can clearly see Brandon Spikes’ fingers go into the facemask of the running back for Georgia, and, I don’t mean just go in there — go in there and twist around,” Golic said. “It is a bad looking eye-gouge. And I know this guy is a tough player and I know he hits and I know he’s considered one of the best linebackers. But that’s one of the biggest chicken-bleep things I’ve seen in my life. Ever. Ever! To be that good of a player and have to do that – stick your fingers in a facemask and try to blind a guy, eye-gouge him, is pathetic, Brandon! Pathetic, that you would do it!

“There needs to be some disciplinary action. Everybody wants to talk about LeGarrette Blount from Oregon for punching that kid. I’ll tell you what. I’ll take the punch over this garbage. Any day of the week. Any day of the week over that garbage on the field of sticking your fingers in somebody’s facemask and trying to blind him. Stick your fingers in their eye? Are you kidding me…?”

Golic later said: “What a horrible move that is. What a classless, unsportsmanlike move that is.”

Meyer said his wife and defensive coordinator Charlie Strong both mentioned the Spikes’ incident to him. His initial reaction was to move on. Then he saw a replay of the incident decided to speak to Spikes about it.

But his initial balking indicates he didn’t want to suspend Spikes at all.

“Very emotional things happened in that game in particular that were not good for either side,” Meyer said, “but the bottom line is we’re Florida and he’s Brandon Spikes and we expect certain things.”

Nice speech. But it would’ve meant more if there was some action to back it up.

I think the only one wishing he were a minor god is Jeff “Bulldog” Schultz. The real bisquit crux here is What the Heck is the NCAA anyway? It is some kind of Barney Fife police department in the middle of the Big City of professional football. Occasionally it gets on a scooter car and gives out parking tickets for illegally (local ordinances) seducing young boys to come be their fan bait. BUT, they know who pays their salaries and HUGE retiement pensions, as the NCAA is just a lap dog in a show that is run more by universities like Alabama and Georgia, where game officiating is about as bad as wrassling referees (always looking the other way when someone slips a wrassler an iron bar to hit his opponent with … but its really just a styrofoam prop). The NFL dropped the Bounty Gate charges, so it is back to open season on players that have the best chance to single-handedly change the outcome of a game that is a TEIAM sport (see the I in TEAM?). Aaron Murray always has the option to quit football, if it is too dangerous. All defensive players have the option of taking knives in the socks and stabbing anyone they please, as long as they know the cameras will catch it AND it might end up as a 15-yard penalty. Only in ice hockey do real police come onto the field of play (rink) and arrest thugs and charge them with 20-year to life imprisonment. So, Jeff Schultz, ease up on the NCAA.

The columnist, and others, keep repeating that this was a “helmet to helmet” hit. It was NOT. It was a shoulder to shoulder lick. Dial also used his forearm. The helmets might have hit after impact but it’s quite clear from the video that Dial delivered the blow with his shoulder. He COULD have lowered his helmet and used it as a missile to hit Murray with his helmet but did not. That he intentionally delivered the blow with his shoulder (and below Murray’s helmet and neck) makes all of this conversation moot to me. Also, Murray was/could have been a factor in the play. The ball carrier was less than a second from being right on him. On interception plays, defenders need to block players who can/might tackle the ball carrier. Murray qualified. I don’t even agree that a penalty should have been callled. If the same play had happened to A.J. McCarron I would feel the same way. He got blocked – a vicious block maybe – but that was all. I also agree that the Georgia player trying to gouge Milliner’s eye was a much worse play and much greater example of unsportsmanlike conduct.

Any idiot like Bill in Montgomery can see that this hit was far more dangerous than those. If those players were suspended then one can only assume there was a reason this one was not.

I got a funny story about an “ear-hole” shot, in a football game:

I was a year out of HS when Herschel started on his record-breaking HS years, but Johnson Co played our school in the playoffs his junior and senior years. We won the first year, then Johnson co won it all in Herschel’s senior year.

Anyway, that last season, my good buddy John, who was a 150 lb, tough-as-nails, WR, got a free shot at Herschel, who also played MLB on defense. On a mis-direction play, John flashed to the middle and caught Herschel with his head turned, and (in his words) UNLOADED on Walker, making sure he got his helmet on Herschel’s, who never even tensed-up.

The next thing John remembered was Herschel picking him up, while worriedly asking him “you alright, buddy?”

John told me after the game, “I’ve blocked guys +50lbs bigger lots of times, but that was like hitting that (he pointed at the gym’s) brick wall.”

We’ve only laughed at him for going on 30+ years . . .

“But Dial’s second-quarter helmet-to-helmet hit on Murray — see video below –easily was the most flagrant foul in the game”

Really Jeff? You can type that with a straight face? A block (whether it be illegal or not), is more flagrant than 1 guy poking another one in the eyes? Wow. Homerism at it’s best.

When you see it in slo-mo, you can tell it was not targeting with the helmet. I’m not aware of any rule that says that a defensive player cannot be hit. How many time have you seen a defender on a punt return get clocked when he doesn’t see a block coming? This was essentially the same thing. A tough, vicious block but under current rules not illegal.

The Tech fan’s obssesion with UGA footbal is still overwhelming..Why wont they talk about Tech/Georgia football? Why do they talk about what other teams beat Georgia? Why do they like to plile on when it comes to issues like this? Do they have inferiority complexes when it comes Georgia? Why do they never say Georgia beat us this but we’ll get them next year?

Proof positive that there is a double standard in the SEC… the Bama standard and the everybody else standard. Not sour grapes either… it is fact as this ruling proves. What does it take to get a Bama player suspended? Anything short of murder seems to be ok. Who knows maybe they’d find a way around that too.
Horrible non action by the SEC. Shame on Slive. And all you “win at any cost” Bammers can shove it… if you have even an ounce of decency you know it is true. Where are all the people who’d be calling a UGA player a “thug” for doing the same thing? Where are the decent Bama folks? I guess you all sold your souls to Bear and Saban.

Quarterbacks are football players !!!

Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray threw a interception.He then became a defensive player trying to stop an offensive player from scoring a touchdown. In the process of doing this he was blocked by the offensive player teammate.

It was a crushing hit but Quinton Dial was only doing his job. Murray appeared to duck as he was hit. Quinton Dial should not be punished or labeled a dirty player. It appeared to be a good block and no penalty flags were thrown.

After watching this hit, I think that it is the most blatant of all the SEC hits. DJ Sweringer hit, to me, was not as bad because he is a DB and he has a right to the ball. If the WR jumps and he defenceless, and the DB jumps for the ball, that action is not a LAUNCH.
There is no consistancy in the SEC nor is there any justice. Justice Cunningham had a helmet to helmet and the Vandy player was not suspended. Fishy, I don’t know, but unjust, yes.

Bama has always gotten breaks. From Bear Bryant’s sketchy recruiting, the SEC office based in Alabama, Saban stretching the truth about how he explains away recruiting players in an already full class, etc. I mean those are just a couple of examples that come to mind, but they’ve always gotten preferential treatment, and always will. If that guy played for any other SEC team he’d be benched. Better yet, Saban not benching the guy for the game against notre dame says it all. By Saban not benching the guy, he’s basically telling us he doesn’t know right from wrong. I can guarantee you Spurrier or Mushcamp would bench the guy in a heartbeat.

No, you liar. You have asked a lot more direct questions than that short list you list a dozen direct questions you’ve asked of me without the 1st semblance of any direct question back answered from you. That is all you do as blog bully to run in here and state that you know you have earned the right to ask me a direct question, and do so again.

It is ALL you EVER HAVE DONE IN HERE, ever.

You asked me based upon your interpretations of what I said about our Defense when I have said things about this defense this year such as we have no pass defense and such as we have only 54 scholarship players remaining to play Alabama plus a transfer-in and such as we have 11 players on defense who might be selected in the up-coming NFL Draft after the season and yet we played well up until the Florida game against only Vanderbilt and such as Branden Smith has been demoted and such as Todd Grantham is a fraud and apparently at odds with Mark Richt in every facet of how he manages his business working for Mark Richt in-fact differences deep-rooted in their very basic lifestyle, and such as he loses his entire defense after this our best chance 2012 and pointed out that it takes years to learn his sophisticated defense and such as his defense has ALWAYS given up huge numbers of points against every single ranked team he has ever defended against, and a whole other large such stream of questions I have steadfastly maintained about this defense not the least of which is personnel placement such as Alec Ogletree whom I deem our best pass defender yet he removed from the secondary and inserted at our 1 deep position on the defense linebacker 2012. And, such as Rodney Garner has done a poor job recruiting and an even more poor job coaching his Defensive Line with his tough love approach where he has 12 years now under Mark Richt and before that under Jim Donnan berated his players on his DL in the press, and refused to play players on his DL much who will one day play every Sunday. I pointed out that there has been some so-called solidarity among the defensive players 2012 all coming back when so many could have gone to the NFL last year, when the only solidarity I saw all off-season was how many of them should have been kicked off the team, and how far behind they all were game ready when they all came back just before our biggest game of the year South Carolina. As it turned out, Florida was the biggest game of the year, and then Alabama was – but, certainly pre-season every single Georgia Bulldogs’ football fan of which you most assuredly are NOT (In fact, you think The SEC sucks.) figured that Florida was not going to have a great year. And, your BS that Georgia had a “good year” is so much BS # 6 in the nation is not a “good year.” A good year is like # 19. A good year is like 3 or 4 losses. 10 wins you brag about ? 27 teams made 10-win seasons last year. Since when is being # 27 with 4 losses great ? I hardly think 2011 at 10-4 same number of wins as 27 teams in fact put-up 2011, and 4 losses the most among the 27 teams who put-up 10-Win Season is NOT EVEN Top 25. We beat no team who made the AP Poll Top 25, even, in 2011 and you think that is great 10-Win season you stated today. Your knowledge of The SEC, Georgia, 10-Win Seasons, what I have said consistently about the Defense all 2012, your opinion of how you establish the ability to have earned the right to have asked me EVER ANY direct question is without a doubt, without merit.

So, you run in here and read me write about 11 defensive players and all you see is they are gone after the season and will be selected in the NFL Draft and assume that is me bragging on the defense, yet you see me point out that Aaron Murray had a great game against Florida, Vanderbilt and Alabama and will as well against Nebraska the 4 teams who might or might not make the AP Poll Top 25 for 2012, when in the Alabama game I make the point that had we not had # 79 rush defense all 2012 and will end the season having

______________________________________________________
GIVEN UP MORE YARDS RUSH THAN WE GAINED OURSELVES
______________________________________________________

And, you state to me that because there are in-fact a ton of defensive players fixing to be drafted by the NFL, that that is somehow unmentioned a statement of how great the defense is 2012.

No the defense is NOT GREAT.

The Defense has shot this season for us, our best chance.

Find someone else to stalk, as you have no purpose in life if not to come in here every 5 minutes and ask me a DIRECT QUESTION.

Dial should have been kicked out of the SEC Championship Game once the covered-up official on the play could not see the play live. He tried to get perspective to see it. The replay officials have to kick him out of the game. No penalty. And, the simple fact he is then kicked-out of the game as a bit player who doesn’t contribute diddle-e-squat to the Alabama team, means he cannot play against Notre Dame – the next game.

This is BAD for The SEC.

Aaron Murray saw Dial coming. He turned his head and tried to brace himself just before the helmet to his facemask.

CBS must have had 20 cameras there and still the only one we have seen is from the telecast. I’d be interested to see an endzone high angle. I still believe he was leading with the shoulder.

I agree with Schultz, the SEC has to make a precedent. Dial Should be suspend for the NC game. However, I don’t think that Dawson should be suspended by the SEC for attempting to poke Milliner’s eyes. That should be handled in house by Richt. He should be suspend for the first half of the bowl game, though. Just like Spikes was held out for a 1/2 a couple of years ago for doing the same thing to Knowshon.

Not sure why they reviewed Ogletree’s hit. He was penalized on the play for a hit where he barely hit the QBs helmet.

Come on Bama fans, no way would you say that was a legal hit, or that the player shouldn’t be suspended for the next game if that same hit happened to McCarron.

Why hasn’t Saban already commented on Dial? Why hasn’t Saban already suspended Dial? The SEC Commissioner is a spineless joke.

Again, DIAL IS A THUG!

JEFF SCHULTZ I was trying to search back and I couldn’t find any of your articles on the subject. Can you provide a link to an article where you called for BEN JONES to be suspended after the clip on the MISS ST player. Could you also send a link to the article where you called for the UGa players that left the sidelines in the Ben Jones vs Nick Fairley fight to be suspended per SEC RULES.

Ogletree’s cheap shot was by far the most egregious of the three incidents. With as many of these cowardly sucker punches as Ogletree has landed on opponents in every one of the games he’s played in, he should be banned from college football forever.

And Murray should win an Oscar for his acting job, pretending to be injured.

Let’s all just calm down and have a few moments of silent prayer…

In tribute to our beloved martyred Saint Jan Kemp, let’s all bow our heads for a few moments of silent prayer. Thirty years ago, this courageous young lady risked everything to expose the corruption and academic fraud instigated by Vince Dooley, sleazy practices that continue to this day under douchebag coach Mark Richt. Gone but never forgotten, Saint Jan lives on in our hearts and minds as a guiding inspiration and as a symbol of resistance to the malevolent evil and corruption that dwell in Athens.

And now, let us all pray for Saint Jan…

“JONES also tried to injure the Miss St player by clipping him some 20 yards down the field. Jones was Targeting and Attempting to Injury with that clip for sure”

UOAD,

I remember that play. It was the single dirtiest play I had ever seen in college football. He chased him down the field and completely from behind dove straight into the back of the MSU player’s knees. I can’t believe it didn’t blow out one or both of the MSU player’s knees.

Dawg fans sure seem ultra hypocritcal when it comes to unsportsmanlike penalties. Lets keep in mind also that georgia usually leads the sec in unsportsmanlike penalties and I think a couple of years ago they led the entire nation or were 2nd or 3rd worst in unsportsmanlike penalties out of 119 teams. Its a dirty program when you’re constantly at or near the top in unsportsmanlike penalties. Plain and simple.

What we have learned for this..

1-Murray is a tuff son of gun to get up and collect himself after that hit and I have him on the Wet Willie all tuff team for 2012.

2-The AD from UGA speaks out of turn. Mark ask Greg what Mike Slive told him about his complaint!

3-UGA was so close to the NC game and that is more the problem than Mrurray getting the shat knocked out of him.

4-Lot of Bama haters in the house.

5-Nick Saban is not on many Christmas list of you good folks.

little info….last year the AJC folks had a grand old time blasting Nick after the two recruits were asked to greyshirt…remember. Old Nick took a beating. Rumor has it another Bama Commit from around your parts will not be and EE due to AJ returning thus that scholly is till taken. You might get a chance to blast old Nick again soon. Mark is having a great year with his 40 commits but still below Nick with his 19 and soon to be 18. The big TE Josh Mcneil having a little trouble with his grades and will not make the cut it appears.

Roll Tide and have a good weekend. Hell it’s just football.

another note Jack Del Rio’s son Luke has committed to Bama and will walkon….LOL Being the King is tuff but we will take it for now. Nothing last forever.

I have no idea how many, although it’s pretty well known that Tech has a “questionable” blocking scheme–whether cuts or chops. The point is that you’re on here preaching to UGA and Bama that they need to “clean up” their houses when it’s your school that’s on probation and had its conf championship lifted.

WW – Yea, I did. That may be why I’m not bent completely out of shape by the Dial hit. In fact, while I said it should have been a penalty, I was referring to the current rules. 20 – 30 years ago it would not have even been considered worthy of anything except oohs and ahhs from the fans. The changes in the rules are necessary because of the tremendous increases in the size, strength and speed of the modern day player. Back in the day, the Dial-Murray hit would have been a 200 to 220 pound lineman hitting 180 pound quarterback. Don’t get me wrong, being blindsided and getting up trying to see through the ear hole of your helmet is not fun, but the long-term effects were no doubt somewhat less. Plus, today, we know the devastating brain injuries caused by such hits at the speed of today’s game. Back in the day, we had no idea how dangerous all this helmet to helmet stuff actually is.

bubba4dawgs,

Darwin Holt Chick Graning had nothing to do with Georgia Tech leaving SEC. I know. Georgia Tech had to play Alabama and Georgia, back-to-back end of seasons, and Georgia Tech would end up with no one caring for Georgia Tech, and there were not many bowl games, back then. It was a bad decision, as it turns out for Georgia Tech, but the reason to get out of SEC then, as now, would be the same : They could not compete.

Darwin Holt Chick Graning and flack of SEC Revenue-Sharing, which Georgia Tech would love to be getting a piece of nowadays, neither had any affect on Georgia Tech leaving The SEC.

Georgia Tech could not compete.

Georgia Tech losing 10 to nothing. Georgia Tech having to punt at the end of the game, or it would be 17 to nothing. The Georgia Tech punt was shanked. Darwin Holt was the best player on Bear Bryant’s defense, and he had the job of blocking Chick Graning. The play was definitely Live. Darwin Holt blocked Chick Graning. Darwin Holt was tough. While the fair catch signal was being made by Alabama’s Richardson, Darwin Holt saw Chick Graning running down the field, and as it turned out broke his jaw, cheekbone, and knocked out 3 teeth. It was not after the fair catch.

The BS in the AJ-C : There were 2. Jesse Outlar. Furman Bisher. There was the Constitution at 7 am in the morning and the Journal at 4 pm. The Saturday Evening Post published the Furman Bisher story. Bear Bryant sued them and won a third of a million dollars. No one seems to remember any of this now, and those who say they do, write about it with a slant. There are still those who remember the BS stories as is Gospel, when again, Bear Bryant won a third of a million dollars and put it to rest.

Darwin Holt Chick Graning can never be put to rest when stories of how important the play was to Georgia Tech’s entire never to recover history is at stake.

Chick Graning had a facemask of a single piece of plastic across his entire face, like he was a tough guy which Darwin Holt most assuredly was.

It was a penalty.

Darwin Holt was crucified by the AJ-C. Again. I know. I read every article at the time, each morning, every single day from 1957 to today. I believe I know what was said in the AJ-C.

Bear Bryant did not teach dirty tactics, and neither does Nick Saban.

Both incidents are PENALTIES.

The fact that neither was, is what makes these 2 incidents the same

bubba4dawgs.

Darwin Holt Chick Graning had nothing to do with Georgia Tech leaving The SEC, and Bobby Dodd and Bear Bryant were the closest of friends before and after Darwin Holt Chick Graning.

The game was at Legion Field. Alabama would win its 1st Bear Bryant National Championship.

_________________________________________
Georgia Tech football program started Waning 1957
_________________________________________

Bobby Dodd had long-since seen the writing on the wall.

When Georgia hired Vince Dooley, that was it for Bobby Dodd. Bobby Dodd never beat, and always lost to Vince Dooley, too.

The only year Bobby Dodd beat Bear Bryant was the next season in Atlanta. I was there.

Bobby Dodd never did ever beat Vince Dooley.

That’s why he wanted Georgia Tech out of The SEC, and no other reason – especially nothing to do with Darwin Holt Chick Graning, or Revenue-Sharing.

Bobby Dodd, his football program waning starting 1957, lost 6 of 7 games against Bear Bryant, his closest friend, and never did beat Vince Dooley, losing every time.

That’s why Georgia Tech wanted out of The SEC, and no other reason. I know. I was there.

People try to write about it now, and say this or that; but, they were not there then to know what the story was.

In fact, many people point to that Darwin Holt Chick Graning game at Legion Field in Birmingham 1961 as the point in which Georgia Tech football never recovered from and never will; but, it had started 1957, not 1961 when Georgia Tech’s football program went on the wane.

I watched those games. That was not dirty football. Yes, they were both penalties which neither were called. Both, under today’s understandings of especially collegiate football, require the players to be removed from that game as soon as officials on the field or in the booth, witness it. And, both then cannot play in the next game for Alabama. Darwin Holt cannot play against Auburn 1961 before Alabama beats Arkansas in the Sugar Bowl to win the NC 1961. Quinton Dial cannot play against Notre Dame before Alabama beats Notre Dame in Miami hell hole Orange Bowl BCS Title Game.

__________________________________________
“Bear Bryant taught hard tough intimidating football
but he didn’t teach his players to be dirty.
There’s no doubt in my mind about that.”
__________________________________________

Quote by Chick Graning, Georgia Tech himself.

The next year, 1962 at Grant Field, I was there, too. After the game, the Georgia Tech fans threw liquor bottles on the field. 1963 was back again at Legion Field. 1964, Vince Dooley’s 1st season at UGA, the game was back at Grant Field, and Bear Bryant came on the field wearing a football helmet to protect himself from flying liquor bottles from the notoriously poor sportsmanship forever by Georgia Tech fans. Again, I know. I was there.

In this game at Grant Field 1964, Bear Bryant in a football helmet to protect himself, at the end of the game, a Georgia Tech football player saw and Alabama football player take his helmet off. The Georgia Tech player walked right up to the Alabama player and smashed his elbow into the Alabama’s defenseless, helmetless, face. And, no penalty was called on that, either. In fact, no one even talks about it.

Darwin Holt had already graduated from the University of Alabama and was in his Master’s program at the time he blocked Chick Graning. Chick Graning went on to try to play NFL football and then Canadian football and tried to coach football. Chick never did live in Atlanta after the incident, not wanting to and moved to Mississippi where he sold insurance.

Bear Bryant said repeatedly every time he was asked about it, that the official standing right there less than 5 yards away, looking directly at the play, should have thrown the flag because Darwin Holt’s elbow most certainly did hit Chick Graning in the face when Chick Graning kind of bent his knees as the blow was coming. If Chick Graning had not of bent his knees just as the hit was made, it is clear the hit would have been to Chick Graning’s chest. Chick Graning bent down just as the block was being made. It is a penalty.

It is a penalty that Quinton Dial did to Aaron Murray too, and should have been dished out by the Replay Official. Why have replay Officials if we cannot protect the players such as Chick Graning and Aaron Murray ?

The Saturday Evening Post went out of business over the incident trying to make it out for what it’s not.

I knew Furman Bisher for many years. He passed earlier this year. This incident was his darkest hour. His interviews he conducted for this article for the Saturday Evening Post were rejected out-of-hand. Both Wally Butts and Bear Bryant were both victorious in their lawsuits and lived comfortably because the won the lawsuit.

The AJ-C should never have tried to make Darwin Holt Chick Graning what it was not.

“It was scheduling and the fact we had trouble beating Alabama and Georgia back to back at the end of the seasons and be passed over for lucrative bowl games,” Bobby Dodd said. “So we had to do something. It might not have been the wisest decision in the world, but we decided we should become and independent and leave the SEC. It wasn’t bad blood that lead to that.”

Bobby Dodd had asked to get out of the Alabama game for many years prior to 1961. I know. I was here. Georgia Tech had not, and still has not done anything starting 1957. And, 1961 was 4 more years of losing to Alabama every single year.

Bobby Dodd, of course, also was winning only 3 of 10 games against The Georgia Bulldogs from 1957 through the end of Bobby Dodd just quitting, not only The SEC, but coaching football. Bobby Dodd conceded when he quit that he could not beat Alabama or Georgia.

Starting 1957, Bobby Dodd could beat The Georgia Bulldogs only 3 times in 10 games.

Georgia Tech played Alabama and Georgia to end those seasons. Once those games were over, the once promising Georgia Tech was not appealing to any of the bowls, and the lucrative bowls went to the winning teams, not to the teams who at the end of the season against their opponents, Lost.

This is why Georgia Tech quit The SEC. This is why Bobby Dodd quit football. Bobby Dodd said so, himself.

The hit by Tree on McCarron was bang-bang and not helmet to helmet. McCarron called for the flag and he got it. Dawson was not attempting to gouge anyone’s eyes out, his arm was fully extended and his index finger sticking out. His hand was barely touching the guys face mask. To compare these two with the hit from Dial is ridiculous. None the less, it’s over. If Georgia wants to start getting some of these calls, quit having so many penalties on our side, get tough and continue playing like they did this year. You have to earn the respect that Alabama has! GATA Dawgs!

Here’s the problem: A conference either sets the bar on helmet hits and head injuries or it doesn’t. This looks fishy, especially given the proximity to BCS championship game.

Now, before we jump into the obvious conspiracy theories — 1) Is SEC commissioner Mike Slive just doing whatever he can to ensure the conference wins its seventh straight BCS title;

But when asked for specifics about what Dial would have had to do get suspended, Shaw spoke in grays.

“Do I condone hit? No. It’s something that should’ve been [penalized],” Shaw said.

When asked if this same decision would’ve been made in September, Shaw said, “My commissioner would say, ‘I don’t really go into hypotheticals.”

When told that left the door open to theories that Alabama and Dial were being given preferential treatment because of the title game, he again gave a vague response.
———————————–
Slive cares about winning, plain & simple, not about doing the right thing, and Shaw’s one of his employees (i.e. My commissioner would say…). This is why NONE of the players metioned, on either UGA or Bama, will be suspended for their bowl game …. Both are playing NON-SEC teams.

Wins by the SEC teams vs Non-Conf opponents make the SEC look invincible (see all SEC teams’ OOC schedules).

Enjoy the ride while there’s still gas in the tank.

For all yhou SEC boosters, it might be interesting to know that this year was Mt.

All this in a school with a total enrollment of about 2,500, or less than half the size of the incoming freshman class at most SEC schools.

I used to never despise Auburn or Alabama. I always viewed them as quality opponents who played with class. After Fairley’s hit on Murray — I started hating Auburn because you could see the program and Chizik were encouraging it. I’ve been laughing my butt off ever since because Auburn and Chizik got what they deserved — especially at the hands of UGA (karma baby). Unless Saban takes the appropriate action against Dial, I will feel the same about Bama — a dirty program that cheats. Yes, trying to deliberately take a star player out of the game is cheating. SEC or no SEC, maybe ND will get the upset — that would be a good start (unless of course Saban benches Dial), which would be the honorable and courageous thing to do).

Dawg fan, here. Dial led with his shoulder and made contact with his helmet. It happens. The hit wasn’t late and the hit wasn’t unnecessary. Throw the flag for helmet-to-helmet and end the story. FWIW, the same could be said for the SCar DB earlier in the season. Suspension was ridiculous in that instance. The only suspension that was justified was the MMA move from the Bama player. Completely obvious in that instance that malicious intent was involved.

Fopr what it’s worth: since he’s a defensive lineman, there should be a running play or two in the playbook that would allow two offensive linemen a shot at him next possession. Perhaps getting sandwiched a couple of plays in a row would teach him the downside of cheap shopts on your QB.

Reports are coming from the Alabama campus that Dial is bragging and laughing about his cheap shot to Murray — he’s actually taken responsibility for playing dirty. I think (or at least I would hope) he would be singing a different song if Murray were laying paralyzed in a hospital from a broken neck. Doesn’t he realize he could have ended a promising quarterback’s career with that blatantly vicious hit? Nobody likes a program that plays dirty and cheats. I’m praying for karma to kick in and for ND to score the upset, or any other karma that might affect Bama down the road. Lord knows karma certainly caught up with Auburn after Fairley’s and company dirty play and cheating. Dirty play and cheating permeated that entire program from the top on down — to see their program disentegrating now is karma at it’s best and well deserved. Whatever happened to playing by the rules with honor? Saban and company don’t know the first thing about that — gray shirt scandal, telling players to move to Alabama so they can recruit them, trying to take out star players with cheap shots — it’s disgusting.
