Still more reasons for UGA fans to feel good … or bad

Rambo needs to start

IF we insert Logan Gray try something besides the option please

If we have a short yardage situation try a play action fake and hit one of those big tight ends for a first down

Put #30 in the slot and throw it to him in space

Play selection on the 4th and 1 was not very good to say the least. Blame the offensive line if you want but the whole ASU defense was jammed up right in the middle. Fake it to the full back and toss it outside to the tailback bet he would still be running. Offense played against a good solid defense and had an off night. Not surprising considering the fact that two previous games were shootouts. This week will be a big test. Can we run the ball against a tough defense? Short play action passes w/ occasional long balls would open up the running game. Saw improvement in the defense especially in getting more pressure on passer so was encouraged by that. Run defense was off at times. I disagree w/ you that we played a sub-par offense. I think their offense is pretty good and well coached. They also have alot of seniors on the team. I like the fact that we don’t give up and go for 60 minutes. However, would be nice to watch w/ the game not being in doubt in the 4th qtr. If we don’t get alot better by Saturday it may be that way but on the bad side.

“m” 45-42 doesn’t hurt near as bad as 1-7 and from what I’ve seen so far this year UGA has nothing to fear as far as GT is concerned. LSU and Miami have both shown that GT’s offense is a flash in the pan. I respect Paul Johnson and what he’s trying to accomplish at GT, but he’s going to have to get a lot more creative if he hopes to compete successfully in the ACC and against SEC teams. Tech is an 8-4 team at best this year and could do worse than that.

UGA starts it’s next 7 game win streak this year against Tech.

uuugh,

My wife and I did stand in the rain from after the Dawg Walk till the Walsh field goal. We stayed and watched the team celebrate with the students that were amazing in their support through out that miserable day of weather. I was not a fan of the dancing during the game no matter if they were winning or losing as their time should have been focused on the next play. But with the thousand minutes of ESPN running commercials, stopping the game for anything including someone sneezing, there was way to much time with nothing to do except stare at each other. I would think the coach’s may address this this week and maybe not as much in game till appropriate times. I have NO problem with what type of music they want to celebrate with. I seem to remember listing to the PA system playing “Another One Bites The Dust” during the eighties and “Who let the Dogs Out?” when that was the in thing. To be honest I don’t pay much attention to what is being played as it is for the students and if it pumps them up then good for them. You have to remember that the band had to put away most of their instruments and couldn’t play due to the weather thus the increase of PA music. The volume could be tempered a bit I agree (have to let the 50 year old in me come out ) but IMHO I think the music is there for the students as I know they wouldn’t want to hear what I grew up with either. I just think the players got caught up with the other kids and that was all there was to it. Let the coach’s take care of it as I’m sure they will.

Agree that Caleb King may deserve the starting tailback job next week. He’s had some setbacks in his career but it looks like he may have come back down to Earth and won’t become another Jasper Sanks.

Every team is different but if dancing is what it takes to keep their energy level high during interruptions in play, then so be it. Also, I have no problem whatsoever in a team celebrating a last second win snatched from the jaws of defeat. These are not professionals – let them enjoy the moment. Monday practice is when that kind of celebration should be run out of them.

Sorry to upset y’all…the dancing during the huddle struck me as showboating. And frankly our guys do WAY too much of it. Do they really think that performance was worth celebrating? The defense, who admittedly looked better on Saturday, is especially guilty. For 2 or 3 years they make a good play on 2nd down and get up jumping around like the made a sack on 4th down or recovered a fumble. It is like they don’t understand the down and distance or how the game is going. You can’t take 8 plays off, look terrible doing it, wake up for a play, then dance around after you make a tackle. Why on earth do the coaches think it is acceptable for our players to celebrate a tackle after giving up 8 yards!? “Hooray they didn’t score a touchdown!” Is that what we are celebrating!? Maybe “Hooray its 2nd down and 2 to go…Our odds are much better for a stop now!”

If you want to celebrate, do it in the locker room, after the game. We celebrate so much it helps to motivate the teams we play. Just win baby and don’t showboat while you are doing it.

It has been suggested that the music gets the players motivated. I thought that was the coach’s job…not to mention the fact that their free education should be motivation enough. What about not losing or school pride…doesn’t that provide any motivation?

Play the music if that is what the students like during the breaks…but I would hope that we are trying to coach the kids up on the sidelines. Maybe trying to fix some of the mistakes that we make every single game!? That seems like a better use of that time than dancing…but then again that’s just me.

I’m happy about the kicking game – Walsh is perfect so far, and Butler is having a great season (I attribute rain and a heavy, wet ball to his problems Saturday). AJ Green is as dominant an offensive player as I’ve seen in a long time. Finally, the defense shows at least the potential to be dominating, and Rambo showed that he might be the missing piece this defense needed to get real good.

There are plenty of reasons to be optimistic about this team. If we can turn around the negative turnover ratio – a must if we are to compete for the SEC – then this team is a real contender. Also, the offensive line seems a little out of sorts, but if it improves from week to week, watch out.

I hate the dancing but its just one of the things UGA fans are gonna have to get over since this coaching staff obviously doesnt mind them doing. Things UGA fans need to get over:
1. Dancing (at all points of the game winning or losing)
2. penalties (I have learned to accept these as fact)
3. bend dont break and give up 400 yds a game defense (atleast until Willie is gone).
4. Unimaginative play calling (until Bobo is gone)
5. Lack of fundamentals and coaches not caring(i.e. Branden Smith not being scolded for running kicks out from the back of the endzone on multiple occassions; this is just one example of many)

Get over these things and your UGA football experience will be much better. Thats what I have done and it has worked. Good luck.

Dawgs problems are these: 1.Cox has a glinch in his delivery, takes to long to get rid of the ball. 2. Samuel can “jook” anybody and King doesn’t hit the hole hard. 3.Move Boling to LT, most important part of line. 4. Bobo needs to use Gray to throw the ball(see reason 1.) 5.Play Wood, Washington more on d-line, 6. Practice maintaining blitz lanes, our guys are running into each other. 7. Move R.Jones to linebacker(can cover) and B. Evans to nickel back(busted coverages). 8. Tell Willie to blitz on running downs(ATTACK!). 9. EVerybody on team runs 10 extra gassers for every turnover lost. If UGA does this, they will win out!!!

I’ve heard a few complaints about the fact our RBs carry the ball in the “wrong hand”. I coach football and there are two schools of thought; 1-Always carry the ball in the “sideline” arm away from tacklers and, 2-One it’s seated in the arm, do not remove it for anything. I know for a fact #2 was Tony Ball’s philosophy and would assume that is why we see it so often from our players even though he no longer coaches the RBs. The idea is that there is far less chance fumbling it taking on contact than there is while switching it to the other arm.

So, to make the complaint that it is “fundamentals” that we don’t get, is innacurate. The players are playing the way they are coached. If you believe the method of coaching is incorrect then I assume your experience and occupation leads you to be better at a coach than those who are paid to do it. I encourage you to begin a new career in coaching. However, beware, you will not make all the right decisions and there will be those who disagree with you no matter what you do. Not only that, as you work your way to the top, you’re not going to make much money.

Best of luck!

Watch Alabama play and that is one serious football team. They are ferocious, focused, and don’t make mistakes, they don’t beat themselves.

You used to be able to say that about Dooley coached teams. I love Richt and he has done an exceptional jobs…easily one of the top ten coaches in the country based on record but this season’s team is just baffling.
Once we got up 14-3 it was time to ratchet up the intensity and step on their throat but it’s like we relaxed and thought we had it in the bag. 3 turnovers every game…12 in an entire season isn’t acceptable for a solid team.

This was the most depressing win I can remember in a long time. I can easily see us focused and intense and wax LSU this Saturday and then go up and lose to a below average UT team.

I can understand some of the points made by uuugh…players should not be celebrating a tackle when we’re down (or tied)or showboating at all during a game. Music should not be motivation (the scholarship, school pride, ranking should be). I think the music is just a hype factor, that at times seems to be strategically played, to hype up the players and the students.

Therefore, I don’t think that dancing to music during a timeout or celebrating with their peers is classless. I saw the act of them running over to the student section after the game as a “thank you” for coming out in the rain and cheering them on to the very end.

Some things I noticed that weren’t mentioned Bill.

1) Bacarri Rambo needs to play more. He looked like the only DB who knew what he was doing and the reason why I think the pass defense was better. Every time AZ St. went his way, he was on the receiver like you-know-what. Also noticed that Reshad Jones seemed to play better when Rambo was back there with him. Small things yes, but they seemed to have worked.

2) Gamble playing the middle. Did I hear and see right? Did they finally realize Gamble is not a good SLB and put him at MLB for this game?

3) The Jumbo backfield only works if you roll out to hit the flank or run the QB sneak occasionally. To keep handing it off to our FBs (although very talented) will eventually get snuffed like we saw Saturday night.

4) So tell me, how does an OL false start when the stadium is totally silent? And on top of that, not once does this happen, but twice. Is Joe not telling these guys the snap count? Or are they not bright enough to listen.

5) And on the communication front. How many times is Chapas going to field a kick off that Boykin should being fielding and he is standing directly behind him? Does Boykin not know how to say “I got it”?

6) Houston looks like he is a definitely pass rusher. He should be in prime form going into the LSU game. This can only help Atkins and Owens get more push up the middle.

Miss ST had four turnovers, gave up an interception for a TD, gave up a punt return for a TD, couldn’t score from the 6″ line and lost by FOUR POINTS to the #4 team in the nation. Either Miss ST is a pretty good team or LSU is not as good as some people think. I think this game took a lot out of LSU and they may not be at their best Sat in Athens.

Play-calling: Why are there at least 5 offensive drives per game that goes absolutely nowhere, they have no purpose or reasoning? Can Logan Gray throw the ball? (he did well in the spring game) Or is Coach Richt afraid of Gray doing well and causing a quarterback controversy? Can we use one of the 300lbs linemen as a fullback to block on 4th and 1? The rotation between Caleb King and Samuel is hurting both backs, they are not created equal, Samuel is a north/south runner, who’s specialty is running between tackles and sometime straight into tackles. King is elusive has more upside with a pro-style offense, he can find holes and lets his blocking develop. With Cox making mistakes like a rookie (throwing into double/triple coverage, poor game management) why not just start a rookie, or at least someone that has a arm to stretch the field, which would open up the run game. Cox has a noodle for a arm even when allowed to set his feet and throw with great protection, when pressured to move within/outside the pocket he doesnt have a prayer. I’m sure LSU, Flordia, and Auburn defensive coordinators will send someone on every play to render him useless. Arizona figured that out too late saturday.

Defense: We all know that the more stationary a quarterback can stand, the more accurate his passes, but do Georgia defensive coaches understand this? More stunts, and blizing will help the corners. Rambo should start, #3 should be the new nickle back in passing situations.

Dancing doesn’t bother me, because obviously the coaches have a problem motivating the players so they need music to stimulate them…what ever works.

I am also a little worried about some of the plays that take a long time to unfold. Some of those slow roll out pitches and delayed draw plays will get smothered against LSU, UT, and UF.

MoDawg – great post; I would only add that the ASU players were certainly not “offended” as Uuugh said, because they were dancing too.

Frankly, I don’t care what some fan that needs to lighten up thinks. They danced, they moved the ball down the field on the last drive, they won. Bottom line, it worked. The student section is the loudest, most supportive part of the stadium. I would be offended if the players didn’t go celebrate with them at the end of a win.

Haven’t looked – does anyone in the country have a worse turnover ratio than UGA? If we can just change that one stat, we win 10 or more this season instead of 8 or less.

If you really think the defense was that great I hope you taped the game and re-watch.

Go back and watch how many times their QB who was 10-32 over threw wide open recievers not to mention their running back who did a fine job of running up and down on us.

Now had the QB would have completed a few more passes Im afraid to say there would not have been a happy outcome.

The defense looked the same, wide open people all over the field. I think we just benefited from a wet ball. They became one dimensional with the run and we finally stopped it.

We’ve played four games now, and I have no idea what to expect from this team.
I do not think the defense has looked good at all, despite holding ASU scoring down enough to win the game. I still they do stupid things, and make some very strange defensive calls at some very WRONG times. I almost hate the way that two of our blitzes worked against ASU, because I’m afraid it’ll spoil WM and he’ll keep on calling it. And even adding a couple of successful blitzes against ASU, it has really cost us over the last few years. We blitz on third and eight, the opposing QB picks it up and hits the “safety valve” receiver, who runs all the way to the defensive secondary for a first down because the middle has been left wide open by the blitz. (Even though it got us a couple of sacks against ASU, it also cost us one first down, as well.)
We sure have been playing to the level of our opponents the last few years. Needed a last-second FG to beat Vandy a couple of years ago, had to swap TD’s to beat Kentucky last year…when was the last time we just blew out a team that we were clearly BETTER than? I wish we could do that now and again, and let some of our young players get some game time. Be nice to let Logan Gray run the team for an entire fourth quarter, wouldn’t it?
I still don’t understand how…against OSU, a team KNOWN for quick-count snaps on third and short…we get caught twice by quick-snaps in the fourth quarter. One cost us a first down, the other a TD…and our defense wasn’t overpowered…they were just standing around, not even set.

I totally agree that’s why they blame the players. From memory here is what we have heard from the coaches so far:

OSU Loss – Cox was sick and needed to make better decisions… Samuel needed to run harder and the O Line needed to block better. Too many penalties and turnovers

SC Win – Too many penalties and turnovers, Defense needs to play better as a unit the right plays were called the players were just not in position.

ARK Win – Too many penalties and turnovers still. Need better play from the defensive backfield and line

ASU Win – Too many turnovers and the O Line is now a problem.

Ok, let’s address this who responsibility is it to correct all of this, let’s see, hmmmmmmmmmm oh I know COACHES!!!!!!! Who has taken ZERO responsibility publicly, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I know COACHES!!!!!!!!!

Let’s see we have had what 11 or 12 turnovers so far this year. HMMMMMMMMMM, let’s see who has been responsible for 7 or 8 and should have been over 10. Since we aren’t suppose to talk about these young kids because they are fragile, I will just say the QB position. My point after the game the Sat. night, Gray, Murray or Mettenberg couldn’t have done much worse with turnovers. I am so sick of these coaches playing guys by what class they are in and not talent. College Football is littered with FR and SO dominating games and playing key positions. For some reason at UGA, most of our FR and SO we always here just not do the right things. Let’s talk about those Sr.’s that are doing such a wonderful job and have earned there playing time. Evans, my goodness what a joke, Cox 7 or 8 turnovers, Vance false start and holding king, Prince Miller I must fumble a punt, commit holding or interference every game, Owens I am nowhere to be found on D, and the list goes on….

Bulldog Nation I am just as happy as every other lifelong fan that we are 3-1 but I am a realist and 0-4 it could and almost should just as easily be. It’s just sickening to me and in my personal opinion that we are wasting so much talent at UGA from a lack of coaching. Oh and I do think CMR is the right man to head the program overall but if his loyalty and lack of killer instinct prove to be fatal to the team then he too must go.

The Macho Dude is right stop expecting the fans to donate extradinary amounts of money to watch poorly coached games and lose to FL year after year

75 dawg….. I understand what you are saying and sadly there are some fans that are bad apples and spoil the enjoyment of football games because of their disgusting behavior. I think there should be some restraints on what type of music is to be played at the games. I agree that music gets your players pumped but some fans were disturbed about Soulja boy being played a few years ago because of its lyrics. The UGA band should play to keep our players pumped and maybe some music in instrumental format only. South Carolina plays 2001 to get their players pumped and also plays other catchy tunes. South Carolina had to ban the party song “Louie Louie ” a few years ago because fans rocked the stadium in that the movement caused safety and structural concerns of their stadium. lets cheer the dawgs with class and celebrate wildly after the game is won! Go Dawgs!

Tebow had a major concussion on Saturday night…but i bet he plays in 2 weeks because Meyer is a scumbag and will risk the kids health at all cost to win games

being a Doctor i can tell you right now that if he plays he is risking the kids future for down the road

Your right he probably will play Tebomb because he only cares to win!

I do disagree with that because he shouldn’t risk the kids health.

With that said I wish our coaching staff had half the passion of Meyer though

uuugh: I’m with you dancing while tied with a weak Pac 10 team that lost 3 or 5 offensive linemen in the game at the start of the 4th Quarter was embarrassing !! Celebrating like they actually beat FL, or a National Championship at the end- Get some class and walk off knowing you almost lost to another weak team, and are darn lucky to be 3-1. LOTS of improvement needed the next two weeks!

I am not going to sit at a keyboard and nit pick every decision made by an assistant coach because I have never coached Div 1. I would like to point out a couple of things. Several have mentioned carrying the ball in the “wrong” hand. Well if it’s their “strong” hand it doesn’t have to be their “wrong” hand. Changing hands with the ball is not as easy as it looks and none of UGAs running backs have a lot of game experence. Samuel has had a problem with fumbles so the staff probably doesn’t want him chamging hands with the ball because it is too easy to drop the ball. Just tuck the ball away and try to keep it there. When running between the tackles it is a good idea to keep BOTH arms around the football. As a matter of fact, a lot of backfield coaches don’t want runners to change hands with the ball at all. Defensive backs with an interception and WRs should NEVER attempt to change hands, that would be asking to be stripped of the ball. Unless that WR is A.J. Green, if he played for me he could do anything he wanted! As for the FB dive play, most coaches don’t want the ball pitched back away from the LOS on third and short especially on a play that is slow developing like a sweep. LBs and safetys will be shooting the gaps and they can blow up a sweep in a hurry. Your line should be able to get enough push to get a yard up the middle and too many bad things can happen pitching the ball out in sloppy weather. If you are in FG range on a night like Saturday you want to get the three and not have a turnover.

Rain soaked game in Athens $50, Gas driving home $50, Seeing Tebow get JACKED UP, PRICELESS!

The coaches have tremendous talent with green, charles, wooten, king, moore…they could easily spread the field and put in speedy murray or gray at qb (let cox start his coaching career from the sidelines for the sake of the future and who knows, the possiblity of something special happening even this year)…keep king in a option handoff and blocking back, but with those five receivers and the possiblity of marlon brown, carlton thomas and israeli troop, a decent o-line, we should be nothing but terror for any defense to deal with. Coaches need to think outside the box and come up with a better offensive plan.

Oh, while I am here. Mr m, Rambling Leg, or Saint Bernard or whatever your names are. I understand that you all get pay to creat some kind of name for GT like some jerk at UT. But Kiffin and the gangs are good at it, and you guys stink. How about stand on the bridge over 75 @ North 14, drop your pants and do your thing in the direction of GT campus. That will get people attention to your school for sure. Also one of your jerk {thinking that he is so smart) asked, he said it is a calculus question, the square root of (-R). My god! what kind of Calc it tought at GT? Here in Florida my son told me that it is only basic Alg2 and it was tought when he was 13 (as an 8 grader} Holy crap I was so lucky went to UGA for Micro Bio instead of sliderule major at the low Grade Tech school. They like to call themself MIT of the South though. So go away, we are doing ‘Free Willy and stuffs’ and see you on the bridge.

Super Dog and senoiadawgs, Yes Bobo, CWM, and Fabris all need to be replaced. Stale play calling, prevent defense allowing the underneath pass all night, and bad directional kicking are killing UGA along with giving the ball up Samuel, Caleb, and Joe are all to blame. UGA football has been sloppy atleast since ‘06. It is the coach’s job to fix the problem. Luckily LSU has many of the same problems.

DawgNation, UGA is in way to deep in to make the changes now. But CMR can take play calling back from Bobo and overrule Fabris on the directional kicks as well as give the new juco kicker a chance at kickoffs. If that does not solve the problems firings at the end of the year are needed. Yes, I know CWM was not mentioned but that must be handled at the end of the year and besides 5+ drives would greatly help CWM.

GeauxTiger, kneel on the 1? It’ll go out of bounds at the 5 so you’re good to go.

Run left, ball in left hand…run right, ball in the right hand…ball always in the hand closest to the sidelines…always put your body between you and a defender/tackler…always cover up w/ two hands going thru the line and when you are either receiving or delivering a blow…as a back, you don’t have a “strong hand” and if you do and can’t carry a ball in either hand then you should not be playing on any teams past the pee-wee league and certainly shouldn’t be carring a ball in D1 football.

Reasons to feel good: 3-1, playing at home against LSU, A.J. Green
Reasons to feel bad: Have not really played a top team yet until Saturday(no, OK State is not a top team), LSU, Tennessee, Tennessee’s defense, Florida, Tim Tebow, Florida’s defense, Oct. 31, UGA’s defense, Martinez, Bobo, Stafford left school, as of right now Florida has the #1 recruiting class for next year including Martin Luther King’s star Mack Brown, watching the SEC title in Georgia on T.V.

Once upon a time, I had a 1960 high school playbook of all our offensive plays. I bet that at least 75%, or more, plays that the dawgs call are in that playbook. Plus the triple option the techmites use is in there too. It amuses me that defenses aren’t better coached on that danged option. Anyway, it doesn’t take high paid, high powered coaches to defense the dawgs offense. Just line up, and stuff the run. Then, the dawgs new guy, the freshman/senior guy can lob em up for grabs, and then as they say, the rest is history.

Hey “TIgers Will Maul Dawgs”– WTF do you mean “we”? Do you play? I doubt it. As a matter of fact, I’m willing to bet you’ve never played a down of football. Anyone who uses that logic doesn’t know richard about football. Now, go back to your parents’ basement and snuggle up to your life-sized Kerwin Bell body pillow.
