Fan talk: Which would you rather have, a win over Florida or the SEC East title?
Welcome to Saturday. Three weeks from today Mark Richt’s boys will tee it up in the Georgia Dome against the Broncos.
If you didn’t order tickets to that game before it sold out and didn’t sign up for the season tickets that arrived in mailboxes this week but you still hanker to see the Dawgs play this season, you’re in luck.
A limited number of tickets to three of Georgia’s home football games — Coastal Carolina on Sept. 17, New Mexico State on Nov. 5 and Kentucky on Nov. 19 — will go on sale to the general public beginning Monday, August 15, at 9 a.m. All tickets are $45 and can be purchased online or by calling the Athletic Association ticket office 1-877-542-1231.
All single-game tickets ordered will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis and mailed within 10 days of the order being submitted, the athletic association says.
Meanwhile, I went to the funeral for a longtime dear friend’s mom in Athens Friday, and it was a lovely service. It was, of course, a typical Athens funeral in that the first words I heard from one of the surviving sons were … “What about Richt?”
You gotta love Athenians and their 24/7 devotion to UGA.
Speaking of Athens, I’ll be over there a couple of days while I’m off on vacation next week (with my fingers crossed in hopes that by the time I return Georgia will have a healthy tailback in good standing). But before I go let’s clear out some Junkyard Mail. …
Our old pal Cuz wants me to ask Bulldog fans which they’d rather have, a win over Florida or winning the SEC East. Says Cuz: “Tough one for me because I, like you, remember the total domination we used to have over the Gators. I went to maybe seven JAX games before Florida won one. We were dumbfounded, then just started laughing at the Florida fans who went out of their gourds. Now I understand. But to me, winning the East has got to be the most important step for this team and for Coach Richt. Both would be wonderful, but if I have to choose one, it will be winning the East.”
I have to agree, Cuz. As much as I would love for Georgia to beat Florida this season (and if not this year, when?), I’d much rather have the Bulldogs returning to the Georgia Dome on Dec. 3. I hated the losses to the Gators in 2002 and 2005, but I wouldn’t have traded winning the East for a win in Jacksonville either year.
Dawgtired writes: I’m sending this in hopes that you will unveil the scam Boise State is trying to pull on America. Their plight has been well documented regarding the “little man” being denied a chance to win the national championship in the current BCS system. I despise the BCS system not because it keeps the “little man” down, but because it doesn’t allow more teams to settle it on the field of play. This brings me to the Boise scam. No one argues that BS is a good team. I feel they are talented and extremely well coached. Much has been said about their success recently against the “big boys.” No dispute from me. However, while many naysayers point out that BS would struggle in a major conference, the grind of a long season is only part of the explanation. You see, BS’ success should be credited to the genuis athletic director for scheduling these games with the big boys. Nothing to lose and everything to gain for the program. Much has also been made about BS really only having to win ONE tough game to go undefeated each year. But let’s look closer. Yes, they have beaten Oregon twice, Oklahoma, Virginia Tech and TCU. Each of those wins had the same thing in common. BS was smart enough to schedule these as opening games of the season or they were bowl wins. Each allowed at least 4 weeks to scheme and prepare. Some allowed 8 months prep time. This year UGA draws BS in the season opener. BS coaches and players know that their season and respectability depends on winning this game. Is there any doubt they have been preparing for 8 months? UGA on the other hand is more concerned about the SEC title. Please someone, ANYONE, schedule Boise in the middle of their season or late in the season when they can’t devote every hour of prep to you! May John Jenkins welcome Kellen Moore to his senior season. Thanks, Bill.
You make an interesting point, though I should note that Gene Bleymaier, Boise State’s “genius” athletic director and the father of the Smurf Turf, was fired this week in relation to the school’s NCAA troubles. But while I think, yes, Richt and his staff probably are (and should be) more concerned with the SEC schedule than anything else, UGA scheduled Boise State in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game for a reason … to regain the national football spotlight. I think the Dogs are taking the Broncos plenty seriously and certainly hope they’ve also put the past few months to good use.
Big Bad Brad writes: Bill, what’s your take on Texas A&M and SEC expansion? I don’t really see why everyone’s getting so excited about the prospect of the third- or fourth-best Texas program joining the best college football conference. I think the SEC is just fine as it is. You?
I think the SEC should add schools only if it can expand its footprint and add television markets and revenue. While the Aggies may not be the top program in their state, they’re the one that would fit best with the SEC West and adding A&M would get the conference into a key television market. So if they want to join up, I think the SEC should take them. Now, who else should be added to balance the league? A lot of folks like Florida State, and the Seminoles are certainly a marquee program, but I think a more valuable addition to the SEC would be Virginia Tech, which would get the conference into the D.C. TV market (where, my son notes, conference games currently aren’t available). I wrote about this subject last year when the SEC and A&M were flirting, and you can read those discussions here and here and here.

No brainer: win over Florida. What’s the point of being “SEC East Champions” if you can’t say you’re better than those SOBs? Losing to Florida took a lot of joy out of ‘02 and ‘05 for me.

Texas A&M is only the fourth best program in Texas, behind 1. Texas and 2. Texas Tech / TCU. But they’re still Texas A&M, with a rich tradition and passionate fan base. Their location in east Texas makes some sense geographically, as Texas schools go. But I don’t see any reason why the SEC should expand when it has such a great thing going now. And why would A&M break up longstanding traditional rivalries with Texas and Texas Tech? Instead of breaking up the Big XII they should have worked on bringing TCU and one other school into the fold.
I don’t get the point of this “superconference” craze that seems to be sweeping the nation. And if you’ve been watching Georgia football in the last 28 years, you know that winning the SEC is hard enough as it is.
Sometimes it seems that the powers-that-be are intent on screwing up college football beyond all recognition.

If UGA wins their first two games they would most likely break into the top 10. I don’t see anyone in the East catching them then. If they lose both games, I am not sure Coach RIcht can survive that even if they go on to win the East. I have been following college football for over 35 years and I have seldom seen so much riding on the first two games of a season.
That said, I hope UGA hushes up those blue-field cry babies.

UGA will play much better than last year, but will they win more games? UGA should be the underdog to Boise State based on past performance. I just want to see improvement each game and then the wins will come. Georgia was only good for three quarters in 2010. Hopefully the new S&C program will be the difference in 2011.

It’s amazing that these AQ homers still like to pretend that Boise only wins games because they had SO MUCH TIME TO PREPARE…….. talk about finding whatever excuses you can.
Kinda reminds me of how Alabama fans said Utah only beat Alabama because BAma didn’t want to be there and was so depressed from losing the SECCG……….waaa cry me a river you whiny AQ homers.
Funny here, an article that shows VT and several coaches spent over 6 months preparing for the Boise game……… Here dawie fans show this to Mark R. I think it helped VT a little.

If Boise was in the SEC, Boise would be competing for SEC championship nearly every year.
You don’t believe me? Then tell me when Boise State football has never risen to the best in conference and in their division? FIND ME THAT, AND I’LL GIVE YOU $1 MILLION DOLLARS, PROMISE.
Football fans in America are sick and tired of AQ homers excuses for losing to better teams. Boise will destroy Georgia and hopefully Boise ends up playing one of the best SEC teams in a BCS bowl and destroys them to so we can finally put this to rest………… oh what? I can hear the excuses already.

BS deserves to be ranked where they are and if they soundly beat UGA then hats off to them. One thing is for sure, BS will not be playing the UGA defense of 2010. I don’t believe either team will have a great offense in the first game so will probably come down to the kicking game.

How badly will we beat UF this season? Give us a score prediction. Since you have confidence we’ll beat UF this year and do so easily then tell us all by how many points, TDs, etc.
Specifically, tell us how our inept and freshman OL will keep the UF D (coached by one of the best DCs – now HC in the country) from running through it like they are Swiss Cheese.

The question asked in this article is really pretty simple to answer, but it seems 90% of the comments have to be put downs on one team or another. What in the hell has Boise State got to do with this article? Nothing is the correct answer. Does the expansion of the SEC to include Texas A&M have anything to do with this article?
My answer to the question above in this article is, it would be great to beat Florida for the SEC title. Given what event would bring in the most money and provide a better bowl game, obviously, the SEC East title is the more important win to obtain. If it involves beating Florida to get it, that is even better.

I mean why not make the question, would you rather go undefeated 6 or 7 years in a row, if anything short is an unacceptable question?
If the question was: would you rather beat UF on the way to winning the east, or loss to UF and not win the east, I think we could predict with a high degree of certainty what the survey says. Sort of pointless to ask.
The point was of the exercise was simple. To conjure up interesting conversation. Would you rather have a year like 2002, or 2007. I don’t think Cuz or Bill was trying to trick anyone into admitting they were girlie men.

It is time for this program to man up and beat Florida and not once every 5 years. It’s a humiliating circumstance when you only manage 3 wins in 20 years vs. a huge boarder rival like UF. It’s time we stop letting Florida have thier cake and eat it too. Playing in Florida year in year out and Florida having a week off almost every year before the game.

RedandBlackDAWG,
Excuse me. You sound like blogs for Oregon Ducks, Boise State, and Texas A&M to me guy. Boise State right now is doing a run down of players and is at player number 21. Jersey 20 is tomorrow. Guy in charge of such an inane blog says that only posts about jersey 21 are allowed. When they were on jersey 24, I posted about their fired AD. He said it was not allowed.
Now, you run in here and say the same junk.
That with Bill on vacation for a week, that according to you, the NEWS OF THE DAY cannot be discussed. That no one can discuss Texas A&M in the UGA blog.
Yeah, right.
That we cannot discuss the up-coming game vs Boise State. Yeah, right. Can’t discuss it on their blogs, either.
Get this. Texas A&M adds nothing but to break up this 5 Consecutive SEC teams winning the BCS consensus NC. Their “12th Man” played every single game for Texas A&M prior to the bowl game. He quit to play basketball. They called up to the stands and asked him to suit up. He did. He did not play. That was the only game all season long he didn’t play. There are no TV sets turned on watching Texas A&M. None. They have been ranked # 19 one time the last 11 Final AP Polls, unranked all the others. That 1 year, they lost to both SEC teams they played. The SEC already out-recruits Texas A&M in Texas. Texas A&M is in the middle of nowhere and brings nothing to the table except for a football program that cannot even win in the Big XII. As for them being able to compete vs SEC teams, they have a 39 percent win percentage vs SEC teams all-time and have sucked the last 11 years in a row.
Boise State – oh tell me again how Utah beat Alabama, like 1 game means something when that game was long-since explained to you.
8 wins in 31 games vs the 6 BCS Conferences is what Boise State is with a 25 % win percentage all-time, ever. Boise State.
For this, you want to discuss 1 game by Utah or 2 games by you.
How about all 31 games ?
You have 15 NFL players to our 45. You have one 5-Star or 4-Star Kellen Moore 2007 to our 51. You have 0 Top 100 players to our 21. You average Scout.com rankings in recruiting # 69 to our # 11. You have 2.41 average recruit and we have 3.58 average recruit rankings. You have 10 of your 12 games against the # 81 team every week 2011 regular season.
For this, gentlemen you can come here to our blogs and post that you will win.
32-18 UGA.
As for the Strength of Schedule, yes for 2007 Florida had a tougher SOS than UGA # 14 to # 39 in that report, but it does not show 2002 where only # 14 Auburn was the only other SEC team finishing ranked in the Coaches’ Poll Top 25 for 2002. We had it easy.
As for the 16 Losses delineated, there are no replies to explaining how with these as the proof, you want me to replace Vandie on our schedule with Alabama just so we can have Texas A&M bring NOTHING to The SEC. Who cares what the Texas legislature does or does not approve ? I don’t want them in The SEC.
I can say all these things, right here. Instead of telling me what I cannot post, why don’t you just address the news of the day instead of this weak no one can post here about anything other than jersey # 20, or your equally inept post that we can only discuss whether we prefer to beat Florida who we have not beat 8 times the last 10 years, or would prefer to win the SEC East when in game 2 we will not even have a winning record against the entire SEC East over the entire that day last 6 years – obviously having NOT won The SEC East that long, either.
Grow up. Folks other than your mother can tell you to grow up RedandBlackDAWG. It is how you learn life.

Same as the wins. 20% of the time, according to the NCAA Official SOS, Georgia had a tougher SOS than Florida that year, the entire Mark Richt era – like it did any goof for us those years either that we played a softer easier schedule than Florida. We don’t beat the top teams at 3 wins in 12 games vs teams finishing in the Top 10 AP Poll all 10 years, and we do lose to cruddy football teams that don’t have anywhere near our talent in 16 games I asked for an explanation for above and have none, other than 1 poster who agrees with me.
Central Florida – who lost to NC State, a 7-6 Kansas, and an 8-5 Southern Mississippi whatever that is too; give up these type WINS ? Excuse me, he lost to UCF. Did I say UCF right ? Is that their name ?
SOUTH CAROLINA – a 5-Loss team but they CLOCKED us anyway; give up these type WINS ? Excuse me, we lost to South Carolina anyway.
MISSY ST – relegated nowadays to this is a big game for Georgia with our far superior recruiting. What does that tell you ? Give up these type WINS ? Excuse me we lost to Missy St.
5-LOSS FLORIDA – supposed to be so DOWN, us with the better QB you all bragged pre-game. Give up these type WINS over a down program in a bad year ? Excuse me we lost to 5-Loss should have been 6-Loss Florida.
vols – so DOWN a 7-6 team 2009 and we LOST. Give up these type WINS over inferior football teams ? Excuse me, we lost to 6-LOSS vols 2009.
We LOST to 6-LOSS KENTUCKY 2009, too. Give up these type EASY WINS ? Excuse me we lost to 6-LOSS Kentucky 2009.
2007 – we LOST to South Carolina who ended the season without even a winning record, not even in a bowl game; but we lost to them too 2007. Give up these type EASY WINS ? Excuse me, we lost to non-bowl game South Carolina without even a winning record 2007.
2006, we TOPPED ALL THESE with a LOSS to Vandie. Vandie 2006 won all of 4 games all season long, including their win over Georgia. Give up these type EASY WINS ? Excuse me, 4-win Vandie BEAT us 2006.
5-LOSS KENTUCKY 2006 beat us. Give up these type EASY WINS ? Excuse me, we lost to should have been 6-loss Kentucky 2006.
5-LOSS FLORIDA 2003 Ron Zook fired, but he beat Mark Richt’s Coaching Staff, even with David Greene and David Pollack. Give up these type EASY WINS ? Excuse me, we lost to what should have been 6-Loss Florida 2003.
2002 FLORIDA should have been 6-LOSS Florida, who did not even finish in the Coaches’ Poll Top 25 Florida 2002, but Mark Richt’s Average # 52 Total Offense all 10 years to-date, converted 0 of 11 Third Down Conversions. Give up these type of EASY WINS ? Excuse me, we lost to should have been 6-LOSS 2002 FLORIDA.
2001 – Should have been 6-Loss Auburn 2001; but no, we lost that game too. Give up these type of EASY WINS with Mark Richt’s “coaching staff” here all 10 years like this ? Excuse me, we lost to should have been 6-loss Auburn 2001 too.
Okie State who did not even finish in the AP Poll Top 25; but they too beat us 2009. Give up these type of EASY WINS ? Excuse me, unranked Okie State in the final AP Poll Top 25 beat Mark Richt’s “coaching staff” too.
7-LOSS Colorado, should have been 8-LOSS Colorado. Give up these type of EASY WINS when they FIRED THEIR COACH TOO, LIKE RON ZOOK ? Excuse me, we lost to 7 should have been 8-loss Colorado too.
Then, there are the games against the Big East. Mark Richt is over-matched by the likes of the Big East, too. West Virginia beat us here in Atlanta and Boston College beat us in the Music City Bowl 2001.
Tell me how great we are again with Mark Richt’s “coaching staff” these 10 years ?
I am fed up with it.
Thomas Brown

Oh, we are the better team.
We win this game.
Explain please these 16 LOSSES ?
Feel free to dole out the Kool-Aid, but don’t expect me to get a class from the water girl.
I will be more than happy to point out the real football games of the last 10 years, too. Do I need to do that too ? 12 games vs teams who finished in the AP Poll Top 10. We won 3 of the 12, and those only 3 years we lost 4 games, lost 3 games and lost 4 games.
We are good when we have an easy schedule and play no top-ranked team that year (if you ignore the HORRENDOUS LOSSES those same years.) This would be this year 2011 we will be good, if 11-3 is good for a team who plays 10 cupcakes in the regular season and another CUPCAKE in ANOTHER bowl game yet again 2011. We will have beat NO ONE.
This includes ESPECIALLY Boise State, we will have beat NO ONE who is any good.
Has Boise State EVER beat ANY SEC Team ? No. Never. They are 8 wins of 31 games vs the 6 BCS Conferences. Let them talk about 2 games ? Why not make them discuss the whole entire 31 games ? Scout.com is wrong about recruiting and Boise State does not get the # 69 class EVERY SINGLE YEAR ? Then, why are they 3-23 vs 6 BCS Conferences then ? This clearly proves the # 69 class every year for Boise State that they are 3-23 vs 6 BCS Conferences and so does the NFL prove it too that only 15 Boise State are in the NFL to UGA 45.
No game. 2 TD and that is with including us fumbling the ball 30 times this season putting the ball on the carpet up for grabs like Richard Samuel did in the last scrimmage – returned for 65 yard TD by a 3rd or 4th string defensive player for us – about what all of Boise State’s players would be on our roster 2011. All 11 on offense all 11 on defense.
I have been a coach, obviously. I was a walk-on. I had no scholarship. I didn’t deserve one and I didn’t need one. I never played in an UGA game. Did you ?

Back to the question. The SEC without a doubt. Winning said title usually involves beating Fl and every game takes on more importance. Thats the problem. The SEC is the tier 1 conference b/c of that Ga dome game in December. CMR got jumped back in 2006 b/c he felt he had to point out the significance of winning the SEC. Maybe the reason he got jumped was because of the punishment of losing it. Either way the SEC title easy.

And, the question is not do we prefer to not have even won The SEC East for the 6th season in a row, or prefer instead to remain only 2 wins and then 9 losses to Florida with Mark Richt’s 11 then coaching staffs – none of which were any good.
But, as

This was not a trick question. Sure it would be easier to have one of the answers be “Win Both!” but then what is the use of posting the question? I thought it would be a “big boy” question that would strike at the heart of the Bulldawg Nation and where we want to be. As posted, I am just as tired of losing to Florida as anyone. But beating Florida this year and coming in second or further back in the East does not show the progress I want to see. Winning the East does. And if I could “only” choose one, I choose winning the East.

Hopefully GT will be added to the SEC on Monday if Texas A&M does announce it’s coming. We beat GT every year anyway, counting it as a conference win is just a bonus!

I’d rather beat the lizards. Winning the east means we gotta play Bama.

Some need to get their heads out of the sand. No way Virginia Tech leaves the ACC. There have been several news articles where folks at VT have flat out stated they would not be interested and even if they were their state legislature would not let it happen unless UVA was also offered. UVA is the reason VT is in the ACC and no way they pay back UVA by weakening that conference. West Virginia is available. That seems to be about it outside of the SEC blueprint that is willing and not within a state already with an SEC team. We may have difficulty finding the other team without FSU, Clemson, or GT. Missouri has stated they also are not interested in SEC. Same with Oklahoma. Go to those states newspapers and read up.

What a silly blog topic. Tiger Woods will take a vow of celibacy before UGA will beat Florida OR win the SEC. Can you spell i-r-r-e-l-e-v-a-n-t?

Beat Florida, hence my screen name. If beating UF’s your thing, Richt’s not your man.
