Offense wasn’t the problem during most of the Goff era. It was defense; Goff’s Georgia teams couldn’t stop a mid-level I-AA team. Unfortuately, Richt’s recent teams have proven to be inept in both.

Calling for an assistant coach’s head is just baffling to me. The buck stops with Mark Richt, and he isn’t getting it done. Period. He replaced HIMSELF with Bobo because he wasn’t getting it done as a playcaller, either. How soon we forget.

Aren’t running backs as small as Carlton Thomas supposed to be shifty? Mark Ingram is lighter on his feet than the 140-lb Thomas. Caleb King is a good back, but Ealey and Thomas are awful.

McClendon and Bobo need to be shown the door ASAP.

And I’m starting to lose confidence in Richt as the man to lead this program. As a team, we are weak, small, timid and interminably dumb. A terrible, sad day for the Bulldog nation.

This is getting old… The same ole play calls… same ole results. I for one am getting tired of mediocre, and want titles. So much for this veteran offensive line, as we cant even open holes for the backs, no tight end play, no pass rush, etc. I just think it is time for some changes and it starts with the head coach. I mean.. how long do u wait to get results? Ten yrs in this league and all we have to show is 2 sec titles, when Meyer has 2, Saban has 1, and Miles has 1. Just very frustrated and no end is in sight.

I’m too exhausted watching UGA football this year to list all of the problems. My biggest worry — UGA didn’t play with heart in the second half. If the players give up — it’s going to be a long season. Even Richt seemed to give up going for it on 4th and long deep in your own territory late in the game. If you’re going to do that — you at least need to try a trick play or something that might work. I guess the best thing that can come out of this season is that we end up cleaning house with the coaching staff at the end of the year. I want a team of professional coaches coaching UGA next year. And no — Muschamp or Smart aren’t the answer. We need a June Jones type of coach. All good things must come to an end, and the Richt era is over. The real 82Dawg (not the imposter) is signing off for the rest of this season. I’ll be back next season. .

I will never give up on my Dawgs…but I’ve given up on this coaching staff.

In the last 12 months, we’ve had more arrests than wins.

I think this is direct reflection of Mark Richt and his staff.

They recruit the players; they coach the players. They are responsible for the players and the program. That’s why Richt clears $$millions.

At this point, I can not see how he will turn things around. I hope I’m wrong. I really do. I hope we pull a late season surge and become bowl eligible.

Regardless of how this season ends up, I think Richt and his staff gets another year, but I hope AD McGarrity lays down the law. It’s one thing to lose when you have a freshman QB who isn’t playing well, but he’s been the strength of the Offense. It’s one thing when you have the occasional defensive breakdown because of a new algnment, but we’ve seen too many missed tackles, arm tackles, and players just not making plays. On both sides of the ball, the players we should be depending on because of their supposed strength seem to have spent the offseason buying the press line and not working; at any rate, they have not performed.

And that seems to be a team cultural failing. I notice Alabama seems to be working hard despite their recent success. I wonder why my Dawgs can’t seem to do the same. You can blame the OC, the DC, the O-line coach.

I blame the man who sets the team culture.

But I do hope he turns things around.

I of course I’ll be supporting my Dawgs win or lose.

But tonight, it seem painfully clear the CMR has to go.

PS – I know people will point to AJ Green and his suspension. Let me say, apparently he’s 2/3rds of the player we thought he was. At least, he will only play 2/3rds of the games this year. And while we may whine about the rule, it’s still the rule, he let his team down.

But again, who recruited him? Who sets the culture? Something led him to think he should sell that Jersey. And regardless of whether you think we would have won the SC or Ark games with him, he wasn’t there. Bottom line.

No UGA team should ever have more arrests than wins in a single year.

I’m sick of this.

Mark Richt must go.

Sorry for rambling. I hate the word. Reminds me of Tech.

While other programs are on the rise, UGA is becoming an afterthought. The head coach needs to step up or step out. Get on Bobo’s butt. If he’s not getting it done, take the play calling away from him. Quit putting Murray in 3rd and long. Helluva way to break in a new quarterback.

Again, I hate to say it and man…. I hate to jump on the band wagon of ” Fire Mark Richt” but gees, year after year since he’s been here we have had a top 10 recruiting class and cannot produce, except at the onset of his hiring. Everyone on these blogs and even the folks that know more than us continue to suggest that Richt’s success has come from Donnan’s recruits. Even after Mark came to Athens, we continue to pull in a top recruiting class but what have they contributed to the success at Georgia? Furthermore, these top recruits that we pull, go on to be big time NFL picks. I have to believe that our issues are coaching related. Yes, Bobo was one of those shining stars back in the day but, is he truly an offensive guru? Me thinks not. With the new hire of our AD and the success that he’s sustained while at Florida, I think that maybe a change is warranted and probably going to happen soon. Let me ask this… have we ever been a year after year power house throughout the country? What we do have at Georgia is spurts of success and the true desire to be a National contender but we are falling by the wayside. I want and I mean REALLY WANT that success for Georgia but I’m not getting that good feeling with our current staff. I like Richt as a person but think at this point that it may be time to start looking elsewhere. I love my Dawgs and UGA has been a part of my family since my father played for Wally back in the 50’s – win, lose or draw we are Dawgs but desire more out of our program than we are seeing right now.

Let’s talk defense for a minute. Grantham promised us an aggressive, take no prisoners defense. After the last 3 games, I saw nothing but panic out of the players. The switch to the 3-4 has not improved the defense, in fact it is a lacking scheme. Lakatos coaching the secondary must realize that Rambo is not a football player,that our corners are small and ineffectual and he has no solution for using the backups. Football almost always comes down to coaching. We spend so much time worrying about recruiting, we lose sight of that all things being equal, MSU’s defense was the aggressive one tonight, and with most of the players that were not good enough recruits to be considered at Georgia, ditto for Kentucky last season. Grantham will not deliver a top notch defense with players that do not understand their roles with this obvious lack of coaching. So yes, Bobo should be relieved of his duties, but Grantham? Lakatos? Don’t give me the new system garbage or the new system excuse. Football on defense is about fundamentals. These are not being taught. Players out of position is not the players fault, but the teachers of those position players.

Before you throw Richt under the bus and drive over him ask yourself some questions. Did Richt call for the fumble one the one yard line? It happened because of a good hit. Did Richt get called for holding on the touchdown pass? No this was a wide receiver trying to make a block that was needed. The bottom line is that we are now 1 and 3, and that is just what it is.

The only thing I think that is Richt’s fault is his steadfast loyalty to his assistant coaches. Bobo needs to go. Due to the ineptness of the offense to move the ball the defense has to spend too much time tring to stop people. I watched #78 Josh Davis, right offensive tackle for the entire second half and he is yet to make a block or cut down his man. How can our line coach, SS, review the game films and not see this. If we are going to put someone who does not block on the line, I would rather see a freshman out there getting experience and trying rather than what Davis contributed.

Richt needs to replase Bobo and Searles before anything else is done. Get someone who can kick ass and take names and make the offense work.

It is time for a new coach. The team is an embarassment in the offseason (CMR’s fault, plain and simple), and an embarassment during the season. We lose to Vandy, Miss State, KY… with mostly top 10 classes (a couple have been outside the top 10 in the last 5 years, another sign…). We lose because we don’t play with passion for more than 5 minutes at a time. And often when we do play with passion, we don’t play with brains (and there I refer to the dozens of bone headed personal fouls in the previous two or three years). More often though, in the last 3 years we have played with neither brains nor passion. Finally, we lose because our offense is poorly coached. Yes, we have a first year QB and we are playing with out Green. But we have an allegedly talented and experience OL, the first yr QB was the 2nd best in his HS class, we have two highly touted RBs, and many highly touted WRs and TEs beyond Green. Without AJ, on paper, this should be the 3rd or 4th best offense in the conference. On the field, I think it comes down to Vandy and UGA for last in the conference.

We need a new head coach. I know it means some rebuilding and an off year of recruiting, but it is the almost inescapable conclusion (I say almost because he could conceivably turn it around and earn another year if we win out, or perhaps win all but one, including a win against UF). At this point, the only question is: Who? The Mullen love is interesting for a guy that is 7-9. Chris Petersen is 51-4, and while many of those wins were against the WAC, he has beaten some good teams. And if he can recruit kids to Idaho, what can he bring in to UGA? The big knock is that he doesn’t have SEC connections. So what? Neither did Saban or Meyer, unless I am mistaken. His teams play with heart and brains. Finally, we could go for Smart (though he may have burned a bridge by making a very wise decision to stay in Alabama) or Muschamp. Both have great coaching pedigrees and should be loyal. But neither have been head coaches…

Sometimes the coach has got to accept the reality of the kind of team he has and play to that strength. CMR doesn’t have the running backs to have a balanced offense and that is why Bobo is such a failure this year. Thomas is too little to play Tailback in the SEC. All It takes is an arm to bring him down. Ealey, is prone to fumble and King can’t stay healthy.
If I was CMR Murray would throw the ball 50 to 60 times a game and Murray would run 10 to 15 times when things opened up.
For this year UGA’s strength is the pass. They have a very good receiving group.
Other than Bobo being demoted every coach that did not come in with Grantham needs to be reevaluated on job performance and skills in recruiting. After this year total collapse surely somebody is going to be replaced.
Grantham and the people he hired is hands off for at least 3 or 4 years until he has a complete recruiting class playing.If he did not bring in any of the coaches then they shpuld be evaluated also.

You GA fans are hilarious. How many of you were on this same board after the first game talking conference/national championship? Now after a bad streak the season is over and you’re ready to fire everyone. College footfall is a funny game and a lot can change in a hurry. If UGA pulls out a few quality wins by the end of the year will you still be ready to clean house?

And for all of you who think Mark Richt is too nice, or too Christian, to be a winner, keep this in mind: Tim Tebow was a player of tremendous faith…Danny Wuerffel was as nice a guy as there ever was and is a preacher’s son…heck, even Spurrier is a preacher’s son. Richt’s faith or the fact that he is a nice guy have nothing to do with the state of the program.

When you do not pick good assistant coaches, do not recruit to your needs, or coach up your talent, then you are not head coach material. We all rise to the level of our incompetency.

With the financial resources that UGA has they can afford to hire a HC coach that is both a proven coach and a manager – Alabama did.

We’re obviously learning more about this team each week. Murray and Durham and warriors. So glad Durham came back for a final year and Murray is going to be one of the Dawg’s greatest QB’s before it’s all said and done with. The crap that Grantham is stuck with on defense is some of the worst fundamentally sound “talent” I think I have ever seen. The OL is highly overrated and a huge disappointment. Ealey should NEVER again be called upon in the the redzone. It was clear he got his bell rung last night and didn’t know where he was for a moment after the hit. Kinda hard to fault a player for a fumble when they were nearly knocked out, but that’s the second costly fumble he has coughed up in the opponent’s endzone. This season is now a wash, so best to just spend the rest of it evaluting all the positions for next year. Go Dawgs!!!!

Dawgs are playing soft! Richt shows no emotion, fire or passion for the game. Players have taken on his personality and show no discipline. Buck stops with CMR and time has passed him. Georgia is now a second tier team in the SEC.
Make a change Greg!

Watching Georgia self destruct (yet again) took me back to the Ray Goff era… Have we really sunk that low? Can Richt really straighten this out? Sooner or later the time comes when a coach needs to walk away for the good of the program and I seriously question if that is where Richt now finds himself? I love the Dawgs and they are my team good or bad. However, facts are facts and season after season the Dawgs have continued to get worse rather than better. I could go on and on, but think you get the message.

Good morning. I really think Miss. St. showed more fire and determination to win the game. I can’t really recall many times when we have really showed up as a complete football team the past few seasons. It seems like something is always missing. As important as playcalling and game plans are, you still have to have the grit and refusal to be put away. The other teams, especially SEC schools, have beaten us fair and square. I certainly don’t have the answers but it has become alarmingly evident this team and the preceeding ones don’t show up to win. It’s sad but true that Richt has accomplished all he is willing or capable to do. Complacency and a atmosphere of entitlement have replaced the energy and hunger.

39-17 Georgia Bulldogs Coach Richt and his sorry butt “coaching staff” after 2005

Coach Richt is # 21 after 2005 in wins, recruiting in a state which finds only 3 with more high school players in the NFL and coaching for the # 11 football program in 1-A wins all-time.

This is the 5th year after 2005, for those who think this is 3 games, 2 years, or 3 years.

Year 5 after 2005.

Year 5, second half of the Coach Richt Era when Jim Donnan recruits were gone NFL

I point out that Year 5, second half of the Coach Richt Era when Jim Donnan recruits were gone NFL, that The University of Georgia Bulldogs are # 2 in Fulmer Cup over these 5 years too.

Get it straight that it is not just the last 3 years, and please note that we lose 15 seniors and 4-5 juniors after this season – so 2011 with a far tougher schedule than this, is going to be no different.

NONE.

Note please that Demetre Baker ARRESTED for DUI at 4:26 a.m. this morning is ARREST # 10 for Coach Richt’s recruits SINCE MARCH 7.

“It was the best of times, It was the worst of times.” Every team, at some point or another, will go through a season like this. This, as my dad used to say, is where we separate the men from the boys. UGA WILL rebound and I will always love my Dogs, good, bad, or ugly.

We need to regroup, dig deep and find a way to salvage this season. I have full faith in Richt, Bobo, and Grantham, and always will with the Dogs! I will be there next week in Colorado when we win a much needed game; Hang in there Bulldog Nation, Georgia will rise again!! Go Dogs!

Some fans are real idiots….just like a lot of you here. Georgia is average at best at running back, the offensive line is playing below average and may not have above average talent. Our secondary once again stinks even without Bryan Evans and Willie. I see very little difference in the defense this year and last year. We still have costly penalties and turnovers and cant seem to recover a fumble. The quarterback is going to have to carry the team offensively that is Georgia’s only chance. Who is the guy who said Carlton Thomas is a Jeff Demps type player, you got to be kidding me! We dont have UF talent.

Play calling was ok in the first half. We moved the ball at will pretty much but a goal line fumble and then a penalty cost us two scores. The O-line was inconsistent. They go from opening a hole that you could drive a truck through to folding like a tent. Bobo went conservative with Durham out of the game and we became predictable. Defense doesn’t have the personnel for Granthams 3-4. It will probably take a couple of recruiting years to get him what he needs to run that scheme. You need a beefy Nose guard and two large DE’s in a 3-4 and we don’t have it. So based on what I’ve seen. Consider a 6-6 year a success and hope that we can do better than that with A.J back. Keep in mind that Bobo is running Richts offense. Not his own. He calls the plays but this offense is Richts.

One more thing. I agree with something that Buck said on 680 the fan. I think we missed the boat on some of these O-linemen. Either our scouting miscategorized them or they’ve under acheiving or Stacy Searels isn’t the O-line coach that he’s been touted as. Also, King and Ealey are not what we thought they were. You would never see Moreno go down with an arm tackle from a lineman that’s laying on the ground like Ealey did last night. Where’s the determination from the backs? Sad state of affairs. I like Mark Richt and I hope he can find something to turn things around.

Since this season is over before it began, the Dawgs should try different players in different roles to build for next year. I’d love to see Richt declare every job on the offensive line available to the most deserving candidate. Since most of the guys on the line are upperclassmen (and terrible) anyway, we might as well let the younger guys get some experience. Just imagine how awesome Murray would be at this point if he played about half of last season.

I’m sick of hearing that A.J. is going to be our savior. He shouldn’t play another down. He should sit on the bench right next to Ealy. Why was Ealy even playing after the fumble (or before for that matter)? Three game-changing fumbles reaching back to last season and he whifs on a block that probably changed the outcome of the ARK game. Another disturbing example of our how well our staff coaches and evaluates talent.

Look at the box score. UGA won every category with the exception of three: Rushing, Penalties, Turnovers. Ealy has to get the ball more than 10 times. I don’t care about the fumble. And, adjustments need to be made on “O” to counteract the exact same blitz on nearly every play. If they are sending that many guys, someone should be open. Why not roll murray out of the pocket? Why not use the shotgun more? Everybody says he holds the ball too long, but the defenders were in his face on his first step back.

Both Ealy fumbles involved him trying to get too much. In both cases he was trying to lunge that extra yard for the end zone and get the ball in position. Coaches, tell him not to do it. Wrap it up.

I’m sorry, but Coach Mark Richt is responsible for the malaise that has take hold in Athens. For the last few years things have gotten stranger and stranger; lineman (offense & defense) appear to be getting manhandled physically, supposedly gifted recruits are busts (or are being coached down), coaches are unable to or don’t know how to teach basic football techniques and the most damning is there is no discipline on either the field or off. And that dear friends, goes straight back to the Head Coach, he needs to practice harder and tougher. And accept that he has recruited way to many nuckleheads and followers. He needs winners and leaders, not just good looking athletes.

The Richt era is coming to a sad and uncerimonious end. I never saw this coming. I thought he would be a legend. I thought we’d be naming buildings and streets after him one day. Lets be honest with ourselves, is there anyway he can turn it around? I don’t think there is. I have never seen a more clueless and impotent football team in my entire life. Its complete farcical theatre every time we take the field. I just sat there laughing last night like I was watching the Three Stooges or something. We have become a joke. We are so far behind the rest of the SEC that it will take YEARS for us to catch up. Whatever Richt was doing in the beginning, he either isn’t doing it anymore or it isn’t working. I hate it for the guy because he is a class act, but its time to move on…

The look on Richt’s face near the end of the game said it all. He looked like a man worn down, beaten, and ready to give up.

Like he said in his post game interview, “I have never been in this situation before.” It’s over, plain and simple. We only have to stomach eight more games before a change is made. If a change is not made after this year, then UGA, Adams, McGarity and anyone else at Georgia that gives Richt another year is dilusional. This program is going nowhere with him.

Plus, it really doesn’t matter that we will loose some recruits with his departure. We’re going to loose recruits anyways. Georgia has to stop the bleeding before we get in a hole that takes YEARS to climb out of.

Go get Boise States head coach in the off season. Hopefully he will help to save face, and in a couple of years we can be proud of our DAWGS again. What we are seeing now is beyond pathetic. This is the way the Vanderbilts of the world play. A program lik Georgia should never have to go through this.

People Get Ready….., the trains a coming…..
I am sure, knowing some of the “good ol boy’s” on the search committee, that the decision has been made and the process has begun.

Coach Richt has done many good things at UGA. He had a good run due to the recruiting done by those before him. He had 2 great defensive coaches. His offensive play calling was fresh, daring and showed a stoke of genius. His coaches moved on…, the recruits were not of caliber of those before and Coach Richt became the CEO. The CEO of team that was slowly bleeding it’s assets and heritage dry.

Coach Richt, in his rise in prominence in the SEC lost sight of why he was hired in the first place. As a student of Bobby Bowden and coach for him, he designed offensive schemes that no one in the country could keep up with.

but now he has turned into a CEO and given the reason why he was hired to an assistant…..

Dawgfan, you are right. We’re not even as good as Vanderbilt at this point. I never thought I would say that but it’s true.

The worst team in the SEC. WOW!

To anyone that thinks it’s too early for change just look back to 2000. That year we were in the preseason top 10, had high hopes of winning the SEC, yet we chocked, lost to S.C., Florida, Auburn, and Ga. Tech for a third straight year. We still won 8 games that year, but Donnan was still fired.

It doesn’t take long for a team to fall apart. It has happened at Georgia. This is worse than 2000. If we loose to Florida, Auburn, and Ga. Tech we finish 6-6, and that’s IF we only loose to those teams. Tennesse, Vanderbilt, and Kentucky are all toss ups. If we finish 6-6 or worse, who in their right mine would give Richt another chance?

The review of the recent Mark Rich era will start with the year UGA was pre season number 1. We lost to SC and badly …………very,very badly to UT and to Florida. Supposedly, we has top caliber EC grade talent but it ended with no much fanfare. This is the cornerstone in the review ….2007.

Last year, was by all accounts, a ( 9-3? ) re building year going in. Joe Cox, we were told, was a solid leader with a grasp of the UGA offense and a solid short to intermediate range passer. We lost 5 games and we lost to KY and to Ok State ( Cox had the flu) and the ugly last 38 second loss to LSU, due to UGA celebrating an AJ TD and then, not covering properly on the ensuing kick off. Toss sweep to Charles Scott and he ran 33 yds right over Rennie Curran ( simply too small ) and we lost to LSU. We also lost badly again to Florida and to UT …..very,very badly.

The 08 loss to GT will ALSO figure heavily in Richt’s last 3 – 5 year review. THAT LOSS was strictly due to UGA laying down on the job in the second half. We had a 16 point halftime lead and we fumbled and threw quick 6 pics to allow the the win. We laid down at home. That was a sign of Richt’s calmness and a lack of a sense of urgency. This comment is key to it all.

This year is only the fall off the cliff result of 3 – 4 years of really lousy recruiting. We have not signed the great linebackers or the D linemen or the great O linemen and in the SEC THAT is where games are won. We also do not have any ………..any running backs that are SEC caliber. See Ealey as one horrible example.

BY late season, Richt will announce that he is retiring after the GT game. If he does not, there is not one shred of evidence that he can resurrect UGA’s football program. He has had 10 years of mediocrity.

Adams and McGarity will not allow him to continue, after this review.

Go Dogs.

As has been correctly pointed out in this morass of inaccuracies, MSU ran the same play about 25 to 30 times and we could not stop it. Get over blaming the lack of success on poor play calling! It is lack of execution. Our o-line can not run block! They are not very good. Without blocking up front, no play calling will pull us out of this mess.

It is also interesting to note, that we did not play aggressive defense at times when disruption of the offense was imperative. So much for all the talk about how we were going to play defense differently this year. Talk is cheap, I thought we would surely not let a team just methodically drive the length of the field without at least sending everybody into the fray.

The players need to do some soul searching. The coaches need to make sure they do the same.

Face it guys,this is the worst team since the Ray Goof era.I have one word to describe our team—OVERRATED—–These 3-4-5 star players we recruit are not very good. Someone is a poor evaluator of talent.Our recruits choose between us & Vandy-KY-MISS ST-OLE MISS. Rarely do we get a recruit who chooses between us & AL-FL-AUB & even SC. Its hard to disagree with anyone that we are the worst team in the WHOLE sec.With all the talent in the state of Ga it is unexcusable to be the worst team in the SEC. Its hard for me to believe we are the worst team in the SEC but after watching every game this season I have to agree —WE ARE THE WORST.

It’s about time we start using our best players even if they are freshmen because our upperclassmen are OVERRATED ESPECIALLY ON THE OFFENSE LINE & DEFENSE LINE.I realized last night that someones head has got to roll.I have always defended MR but the product he is putting out is awful & after last night I realized that MR cannot get us to the next level but it does appear that he can bring us down to the depths we have not seen since the RAY GOOF era

One more idea: we need to run a Navy/Tech style option with Gray as the Flanker. Put him in motion behind the I. FB off tackle; Murray could run(probably not!), TB is the lead blocker on the edge, pitch it to Gray after faking to the FB. Gray takes the pitch and he then has the option of runing or throwing it. We need to use our weapons. How many times do you have a QB who is a decent enough receiver to do this, yet we haven’t done it once! Also, keep trying the wildcat to Ealey a few times a game. It gives a different look and causes the D to make adjustments.

Fumble at the 1 – TD called back with penalty – and then the real killer (I thought we were in control of the game until this) – 24 yard line of MSU – then we get a 15 yard penalty – takes us out of FG range – punt to the 7 and MSU drives 93 yards to break our backs. If we don’t get the penalty there – we at least kick a FG (Blair Walsh is one of the few good things on this team) and make it 10-9 with some momentum.

Sound like Richt is unhappy with Bobo also – comments about calling running plays blindly. I think this is Bobo’s last week. I think Richt is loyal enough to say see what you can do with AJ back. If still bad, I think he’s gone. Last year at SC and Ark. Bobo won it for us. Now he’s terrible for the most part.

The defense will be fine. We’re learning the 3-4 a whole lot quicker than the geniuses at Tech!

Fire Bobo and maybe Searles, and in ‘012 we’re in the National Championship hunt.

Two scenarios:

Mark Richt does some soul searching, decides to do what’s necessary to build a winning program, i.e. change his coaching style. We’re looking at a two to three year “process” to rebuild the foundation and restock the shelves. That said, how hard is it for someone to change their personality traits. If you don’t have nerve, backbone, guts, do you just mature and grow them? They are intangible traits and I believe you either have them or you don’t.

McGarity believes the latter, fires CMR at the end of the year, or worse yet, gives him another year, then fires him. The new coach will then need two to three years to rebuild.

These are trying times to be a Georgia Bulldawg. Things could always be worse, so be thankful for all that you have.

If Richt turns this around this year…it will rank as one of the all time great comebacks. It won’t happen. Wish it would…

Mike Leach as OC would be very interesting in the SEC.

Absolutely right about losing it in the trenches. In particular, the defensive trench was virtually nonexistant for UGA. We’re getting manhandled completely out of the picture on simple dive plays that then gain 8 yards.
