Moody is a punk and needs to go ahead and turn himself in. If he’s not wanted now, he will be soon if he’s got an attitude like that. Maybe he can see Vick.

Do you really believe the Dawgs “peaked” in ‘95??? I believe we finished #2 in the nation just two years ago. Think back just a bit….the teams in front of Georgia lost which SHOULD have pushed Georgia into the national championship game but didn’t. Actually, I think Georgia went BACK in the polls which shows how absurd the polls are.

Anyway…there aren’t many programs as consistently good as Georgia. You can spin it how you want but look it up during the Richt era. Which teams have won more games?

But I am a little more optimistic that you are regarding both TN and UGA.

I think last year was an anomoly for the Vols. A traditionally good program that just had one of those years. I don’t see UT winning less than 8 in ‘09, and I can assure you that nobody on their schedule is overlooking the Vols.

Georgia? I don’t really know what to think about next year, but I see 8 to 10 wins. I don’t see UGA in a regression since ‘05 (11-2 and 10-3 the past 2 years).

UF got on one of those “rolls” last year and was unbeatable. Still the team to beat in the SEC East, but not as dominant this year.

Good blog thus far, real fans chatting instead of throwing homophobic insults at one another.

Oh, almost forgot….Tech. Going in the right direction with Paul Johnson. I see a renewed rivalry with UGA and an ACC championship in the next 2 years.

And for that excitement back int he Vol program, how many have left the program since Kiffin took over, 10? Of course they were not Vol material right?

Hope you are enjoying the glory years at uga – next to 1981 – 83 – these are the best years in uga history – yet still unsatifying if your are trying to garner national respect.

Finally get to the REAL limelight – and you get beat by West Virginia and play Hawaii!!!

Losing records against what sec foes: Alabama, Auburn, LSU and Tennessee – and in 8 short years – Florida will get the series tied.

uga has always been a good respectible sec program – but it seems that many of your fans believe you are more nationally repsected than you are.

I believe UT has won 2 of last 3 – and both were blowouts. and UT has been to sec title game more recent than uga.

Face it shauw – uga is back to the good ole Donnan days – a good program – but just missing out on greatness – which sums up the total history of uga football. Look forward to passing you guys soon – and do not be surprised if uga chokes again in knoxville this year.

UGA wins….. Az. St, Kent, Vandy, GT, Aub, OK state (remember last time we played them Hawaii, Boise St.), UT (lol, not a chance, keep dreaming, maybe in a few years), Arkansas (as always)

50 / 50 South Caronlina (always play tough early before they realize they suck), LSU (remember we beat their ass last year at LSU)

NO Chance – Florida (even though we out gained them last year in total yardage).

As for TN —– WHO CARES, not worth the time……..

I agree that we have some rebuilding to do – but our talent and depth has not dropped as low as some people are claiming. IN fact – end of last season – the Vols played well. Coach Fulmer and Coach Clausen just laid and egg on the new offense and we paid the price. Our defense was very good last year.

Defense will be good.

Offense – will have issues – but if they step up – Vols could win 7 games – 8 would be very good.

2009 Season:
Wins: W. KY, Ohio, Memphis, Vandy, Kentucky.
50/50: UCLA, Auburn, So. Carolina, Ole Miss
Have a chance: UGA
Need an upset: Florida, UGA, Alabama

A few thoughts:
Ole Miss will be good by Ole Miss standards – but not great – will not be as good in 2009. I think they will be a step behind UGA – which will also be good – but not a great in 2009 or beyond.

UGA – While UGA should be favored – coming off the LSU game (LSU will romp) and knowing that the talent is similar – a win against UGA is possible. UGA seems to have lost their MOJO that peaked in 2005. Still – should be a great game – and will need some breaks to win – maybe UGA will be a no show like they were in 2006.

As for Florida:
WOW – Enjoy it! Gators are on a roll!!! Class of the SEC – playing not to get embarrassed in this one.

As for Bama:
Congrats – Program has a chance to be undefeated in 2009 – get by VT – biggest remaining games are Ole Miss (will not be as good in 2009), LSU HUGE HUGE GAME, Tennessee (will give you a good game – we hope) and Auburn (will be similar to TN).

As for Georgia
I think UGA will be very similar to LSU 2008 – but I think UGA will be like this for a while. Program peaked in 2005 – just does not strike fear into a top programs like Florida, Bama or LSU – just being honest Dog fans. UGA will be fortunate to win 8 games this year – very doable – but will not be surprised if UGA loses 2 games and possibly 3 if SC or an improved Arkansas beats you BEFORE you play Tennessee.

Defense – UGA has been respectable to mediocre over the last 3 years. Should see some improvement – but not a great defense by any stretch.
Offense – OL will be good – but lacking great skill players at QB and RB – WR position is really good. Think Offense will not be as good in 2008.

FOR UGA:
Wins: AZ State, Vandy, Tn Tech, KY
Losses: Florida, LSU
50/50:
OK STATE (UGA walking into a hornets nest – they are returning the entire team and playing at OK State – will be a HUGE game for them)

S. CAROLINA – always plays UGA hard – beat UGA last time in Athens – sense a similar game – Either team could win.

ARKANSAS – will be the 08 Ole Miss in 2009 – will be improved and a handful – at Arkansas.

Tennessee – a winable game for UT – depending if UGA has any momentum and how they repsond to getting beat by LSU the week before.

Auburn – UGA was lucky to win the game last year. To me, not much difference in overall talent between Auburn, TN and UGA. Game is late in the season. Auburn’s defense will be very good – If offense has gelled – this is an Auburn win waiting to happen. AT UGA where Auburn seems to play better than home.

GT – I think GT will be improved – and this will be another great clash between bitter in state rivals. They will want this game very bad. Coin toss – rooting for the SEC in this one!!! Actually – wish Tennessee would play GT home and home frequently. Historically, GT and TN have had some great games going at each other.

Well – that’s my take. Neither Tennessee or UGA will be a threat to Florida – but both will have some exciting wins and some heartbreaking losses.
