‘All the Way Turnt Up’
Caleb King's 75-yard touchdown run was a thing of beauty. (Brant Sanderlin / AJC)
So, how’s that ACC championship game looking now, huh?
Finally made it home from Historic Grant Field (MARTA may be smarta but it sure isn’t faster) with the chants of the UGA student section we sat near still ringing in my head.
Early on, Tech’s hip-hop heavy video board had video of some of the Jackets leading the gold-and-white crowd in the popular number “All the Way Turnt Up” but it wasn’t long before the Georgia students appropriated that as the theme song of the evening for the Dogs.
Man, it felt good to see Georgia rediscover the joys of running the ball straight at the opponent. Washaun Ealey, with his 183 yards, and Caleb King with 166 made it look easy at times, particularly on King’s 75-yard run. And Joe Cox discovered, as Buck Belue knew all those years ago, how good you can look at QB when all you have to do is hand off to your backs.
Actually, that’s selling Cox short. He made a couple of key throws tonight and did a great job of managing the game for the most part. It shouldn’t have been as close as it was, with the Dogs having to settle for field goal tries too often in the second half, but that’s a minor point in the afterglow of a terrific win by the unranked Bulldogs over the nation’s No. 7 team.
Those takeaways by the Georgia defense were pretty sweet, too.
And the middle of the Georgia defensive line finally lived up to its billing, making Tech’s Jonathan Dwyer not much of a factor in the game. You had to wonder why the Jackets kept trying to run up the middle, when obviously they had more success on the perimeter. And their decision to go to the air exclusively on that last series of downs? Curious, but it worked out well for the Dogs.
I’ll take a closer look at the game Sunday, but for now let me just say that I haven’t decided yet which game is coming off the list of my 10 favorite UGA wins over Tech … but I definitely know which game is being added to the list!
It’s a great night to be a Georgia Bulldog!
And as the student section chanted while the seconds ticked off the clock at the end, SEC! SEC! SEC!

The game ball should go to Coach Searles . Our O line tore Tech up all night long and made Cox’s job easier and kept our D off the field. We beat them at their own game. What might be the worst team in CMR’s era beat the best Tech team in 20 years. Feels real good Dawgs. Order is restored to GA. HBTD !!!!

JB,
We were just that good tonight! And actually we weren’t at our best. Too many dropped balls on our end too, and I think we got a little too conservative in the 4th. We should have threw more with them putting 9 or more guys in the box. But I understand a little why we didn’t.
The real question is, is the SEC that good, or the acc just that bad?
GO DAWGS!!

1. Good game Techies. I know your sour, but good game.
2. Rashad Jones has come a long way since last year.
3. Caleb King finally looked the part. He really has developed into a nice back for us now.
4. Ealy is great. Honestly this type of running game and offense in general is what most of us fans were expecting out of the Dawgs this year.
5. The look of Martinez’s face towards the end of the game said a lot. I’ll still respect him then most people on these blogs.
6. Russ get’s my vote.
7. I think were going to miss the 3 wides men in the middle next year (Owens, Atkins, Weston)
8. Speaking of, if a player on the team get’s my vote for most improved it has to go to Kade Weston (runner up Rashad Jones). He is an unspoken hero and he looks like a completely different player out there from what he used to. He dropped some weight and uped his game tremendously. I think some NFL team will get a player there.
9. I can honestly say this is the first game I thought Bobo called brilliantly.
10. It’s bittersweet to see this season come to an end. It’s been a rough road but there have been a lot of bright spots. Looking forward to what we have to work with next year.
Just askin…..does anyone know why Richt got so pissed off at the GT player going for our fumble that rolled out of bounds? I tried to replay it several times but I couldn’t figure it out.

Who among we Dawg fans didn’t think, here we go again when Tech scored on that long pass play to open the 2nd half? Who didn’t think this wasn’t the same GA team we watched all year after Big Dawg King ran those 75 yards to restore order? Man what could have been if UGA had manned up all year? Makes you appreciate Vince Dooley and 3 yards and a cloud of dust and all those boring wins we used to complain about. I think the defense played up to their ability for the first time since Coach Van Gorder left. Win or lose I’m a Dawg for life and proud of it, but this is the first time in a long time we’ve had a signature win and it feels GREAT!!! ARF

Nice win for the Dogs, Bill, but remember: they were playing an ACC team and the ACC is weaker than usual this year. Tech was overrated. The only teams to rush for more than 200 yards against Tech this year were SEC teams: Miss. State, UGA and, good grief, even Vanderbilt! That ought to tell you everything you need to know about the ACC.
And there were still signs of the decline in the UGA program: dropped balls (Wooten had a sure touchdown), overthrows (Tavares King was wide open in the end zone) and chronic poor tackling that made the game closer than it should have been (Dobbs missing Hill on that reverse was one example; Cuff’s performance would make an excellent highlight reel on how not to play corner).
All in all: an improvement, but unless UGA fancies joining the ACC, it’s got a lot of work to do before it can play with the big boys.
JB

Jake, it’s easy to pick out 3 or 4 plays that any team did poorly.
That said, it’s well know that UGA has not played up to its potential. A win is a win and we’ll take it.
That said, next year, if we have a QB, a good DE and a new DC, we’ll be more than fine.

JB, thanks.
jake, Exactly. We had a wide open receiver all night long and over threw one on a deep pass, and like you said the one in the end zone. Note what we did do, however, jake and that is that we all have said that Mike Bobo has no clue on offensive play calls. We have asked and asked and asked for years and years and years, that we run the damn football. We did that tonight exclusively, and we did exactly what we would have done last year against Tech, when we handed the football off only 13 times to Knowshon Moreno taken 8th in the 1st round of the NFL draft.
We had 3 more fumbles tonight.
We had bone-headed penalties that killed us and that gave Tech touchdowns on drives that otherwise fail. We got called for false starts for penalties again like we don’t know the snap count. But, the penalty for throwing the Tech player to the ground 6 yards out of bounds, was just beyond belief.
Coach Richt on the sidelines when we kicked off after having to settle for the 2nd field goal (We settled for 3 field goal tries when Tech obviously could win the game by scoring touchdowns while we instead could not put the game away ourselves with the much-needed touchdown instead.) So, Coach Richt watched in total disgust as we gave Tech the ball again at mid-field on the kick-off return to hear the announcers say that there is that kick-off coverage team of UGA yet again rearing its ugly head. And, we kicked the ball out of bounds to hand Tech the TD to pull within 6 points with so much time on the clock. Horrid Kick-Offs, again. You could see Coach Richt have a moment there on that kick-off that INDEED he has to clean house. Not the DC. Not the OC. Not the RB coach. Not the secondary coaches. Not the DE coach. Not the kick-off coverage coach. Not the Kick-off returns coach. Not the wide receiver coach. Not the OL coach. Not the recruiting coordinator coach. Did you see we had more Bulldog recruits ARRESTED/SUSPENDED the night before last and they aren’t even on campus yet. Athletics Director, B.S. We have to pay cash for an indoor practice facility. And, who the hell figures out who are our starters and who is redshirted and who plays while we DON’T PLAY OUR BEST PLAYERS BECAUSE WE DON’T RECOGNIZE TALENT WHEN WE SEE IT. But, clean house of the entire B.S. staff.
Fumble by Caleb King, again. If we had a running backs coach who had run the football 1 time, perhaps he could teach players how to hold a ball running it.
Our kick-off returns gave us field position half that of what we gave Tech when we kicked off.
We left the 1 lone Tech wide receiver to run wild on us, like our secondary couldn’t possibly be lined up correctly knowing that 1 receiver for Tech has 50 catches and the 2nd most receptions is 6 on the entire team. Give me a freaking break.
We dropped pass after pass. Did we coach AJ Green to be so great, or did we coach all the rest of the receivers to be so horrid ? Which is it ?
Did you see us sack the Tech QB when inexplicably Tech removed their 238 lb great blocker on Left Tackle with a blocker 4 plays in row ? No. We haven’t taught our DE to do a damn thing, but get penalties, bone-headed penalties.
The AJ-C surmises we did everything right tonight we did not do right every other game (except Auburn) on penalties and on turning the ball over. B.S. We had horrid penalties and the refs did not call us for a lot more penalties every other ref called on us all season long, dancing around out there and playing dirty football, celebrating Marcus Dowtin purposely twisting the Tech QB well after he was down on the ground and after the whistle. And, who the hell is the coach of Kade Weston of New Jersey our Senior Defensive Tackle, who leaves us all now to deal with the fact that everyone, the AJ-C and the ESPN reviews of the game show that we went into Bobby Dodd Stadium (named after a University of Tennessee at Knoxville COLLEGE DROP-OUT) and have to deal with the fact that a New Jersey Senior never to come back here, plants the damn G flag into their turf ? We are a wholly un-coached football team and have been for years and years with ARRESTS/SUSPENSIONS that exceed the number for every other college in America since 20 December 2000 when Coach Richt brought this rag-tag gang of college roommates and buddies of his NOT 1 OF WHICH HAS EVER COACHED 1 MINUTE IN THE NFL. We are a holly terror off the field and this incident is just more proof Coach Richt’s entire Coaching Staff has Zero Control of the team. CEO. B.S.The refs were loose tonight. On a big play by Tech, there were 2 downfield dirty hits blind-siding our backs trying to make the tackle from behind. We got hurt, obviously on that play too, and should have been 2 blocks in the back on the 1 play, but none called against Tech. Caleb King critical fumble and bone-headed. You could see he didn’t have control of the ball. And, that was great ? B.S.
We can’t play defense. Our scheme is so B.S. We have our secondary lay way off and turn sideways on obvious passing plays, then wonder why we can’t block the pass, get any coverage, nor make the tackle. “It’s the scheme,” the color commentator said. I loved his comments all night long. He ate up the B.S. coming out as excuses for years about our team and its obvious short-comings.
Obviously, the ACC is not up to snuff again this season. Nice job by the OL for 1 damned game, against a Tech team who played the Number 40 NCAA SoS this season and now faces a LOSING CLIMPSUM FARMERS’ team as a LOSER itself giving up huge chunks on the ground against every SEC team Tech played, which included the Number 9 team in The SEC, the Number 11 team in The SEC and the Number 12 team in The SEC. Nice play calls by Mike Bobo to actually stick with the running game instead of the 13 carries Knowshon Moreno got last season against Florida and Tech both 13 carries by Knowshon Moreno. But, if that is supposed to mean that we keep this B.S. Staff, Coach Richt you sir, can leave with the lot of them.
18-20 against Final AP Poll Top 25 teams. And, have lost to 6 teams who ended the season NOT in the Final AP Poll Top 25 in the Coach Richt Era.

Am I on the right blog? Where is all the bitching, whining, complaining, throwing coaches under the bus, throwing PLAYERS under the bus that we’re used to every single Sunday (Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday…)???????
This is proof that some people attach their self-worth to their favorite team’s wins or losses.
Unbelievable. Like a little brat just got his way. LOL

The shoe’s on the other foot now!
What a great rushing display by Georgia – where’s that been all year???
THREE consecutive pathetic moonballs from a terrible passer sealed the deal – yeah, great calls there. What is Nesbitt, a 46 percent passer? Maybe Bobo disguised himself as the Tech O-coordinator and made those calls, I don’t know…
Well, anyway…a win is a win and this one was much better than most! GT was getting too full of themselves, good to see them back in their places this morning…
But there’s got to be a little medicine with the sugar, so don’t lose sight of this…it’s one thing to stomp all over the pretend power of a hoops conference…it’s another thing entirely to do it to the cream of the SEC.

IT IS SUNDAY BRUNCH TIME, AJC. HERE ARE SOME WORDS FOR YOU TO EAT!
Let’s see: Johnson better coach than Richt; Georgia a second tier team; Georgia program going down in flames; Johnson exceeded Richt in developing a QB; The shoe is on the other foot; Tech is going to win the recruiting battle in the state. Should I go on?

Tommy P, are you trying to say right after I seconded the 20 comments by others that we have to change our coaching staff and that the announcers said it was the scheme not the players, that you are happy with the coaching staff ?
Is that what you are saying you idiot Tommy P.

hey BuLLdawg, im sorry they didn’t play perfect for u….i hope they call u for an interview to be the next coach…. u complain about everything…. first u say we had open receivers all night but u want to run the ball alll day….u sound like so many other so called dawg fans……its funny…. i’m a true dawg fan and i see a team returning 16-17 players next yr…. too bad king and ealey were hurt in preseaon 2 weeks b4 the 1st game and houston was suspended…. too bad we dropped 5 ints against okie st…. too bad the celebration penalty hurt us against lsu ( field position hurt b/c lsu would’ve had to pass on that last drive) also led to the carryover against UT…. im glad teebow is leaving its funny that their next qb is being praised but hasn’t taking any meaningful snaps…. turnovers and penalties have killed us all yr especially (florida and Kentucky) and like Tom Brady said turnovers and penalties r on the players not the coaches….. i hope Richt keeps the staff in check….

chazzo,
You left out that Bill King said and that the AJ-C then said too, that beating Georgia Tech would not cure our ailments. B. S. I feel great about beating Georgia Tech, the pretenders who beat no one all season long and who lost to 2 teams Miami of Florida and to UGA, neither of which otherwise beat 1 single team in the Final AP Poll Top 25. Now, Tech gets to play Clemson who hasn’t beat anyone in the BCS Top 40, and who Lost to South Carolina about the 7th best team in The SEC, or the 8th.
Now, let’s be realistic like Stinger said, and get rid of this damned coaching staff. And, do it before the recruiting class comes in here. This staff has no clue what we need.

I was so worried about this trip and game to face the North Ave erds on their home turf. As has been said, we walked in, took control, and showed them why the SEC RULES!!! Now, Teck can go and play Clemson and lick their stingers….DAWGS RULE!!!!!!

BuLLDawg: Why don’t you just enjoy the fact that GA beat Tech. Mistakes are going to be made every game. Yeah, I’m for a house cleaning too, but GA, in a down year, beat Tech in an up year. I’ll take that every time and be thankful.
