Logan Gray just needs to go ahead and give it up a quarterback. No way he starts over either one of them.

I know this is easy for me to say, but if Logan Gray can’t figure it out by the G-Day game that’s probably best for him to move his position. Let’s not forget Hutson Mason is on his way as well, and he’s an incoming freshmen but that’s just more competition and could go either way. Combine that with that fact that we are really short on receivers, I say the sooner the better if he makes that move. He can get some reps at wideout, and help the team out more in the long run. And I’m sure he’d have alot more fun contibuting . But like I said, that’s easy for me to say. I’m not the one with the qb scholly from Georgia. Go Dawgs!!

This team is being led differently because of the new D coaches and that has to be good. Postive stuff I am hearing. Kids want to do well and they want to respond to the coaches …………fine line between great respect and no respect for your coach. CMW had none. TG does. That simple.

This scrimmage confirmed what I already thought…….move Gray to WR now!!!! Start Murray with Mett as the back up and Mason as 3rd string. I think UGA can get by that first game without Mett and just let Murray play the whole game and get the experience so Mason can reshirt barring injury to Murray. But for the last time I am tired of hearing about the lack of depth at WR. 4 TE’s right???????? Run the darn football!!!! Alabama won the National Title last year by throwing every game to Julio Jones and designing game plans around how to get him the ball right???? How many yards did he get last year? Did he win any awards? ……but he has a National Title Ring.

Logan I hope your grass cutting degree is going well or you need to find a new position. Let the SEC and National Championship talk begin. No real Injuries is the best thing. Wait did Sturdivent have somebody dress him and carry him to the field? If not I am sure UnsturdyVent hurt something again. Russ was the happiest of all the Dawgs. No fans or media were around so he didn’t have his butt painted. I am sure the D will take some time because of all the changes but I can’t wait until October. That is when UGA stops playing High School Teams and plays real football right? Wait when are the Gators, LSU, or Bama on the schedule? The only proven SEC teams that have as good as or better talent that UGA and ALWAYS beat UGA. Should be another easy 8 win regular season. Wait did UGA win 8 regular season games last year? Don’t matter they will still win the SEC and Play for the National Championship I am sure.

I expected a better defense than this for this season, but the in-coming freshmen class on Defense features several I expect to get after it. Hopefully, they are there on the sidelines.

Logan Gray threw another interception. In his 4 years in this program now, he has 0 TD passes but 2 interceptions and has completed only 5 passes. Move along Logan, you are wasting our time.

Aaron Murray threw an interception. Excuse me, the issue is still on the Offensive Coaching Staff. SEC Defenses have a lot more than what our Offense went up against today. Aaron Murray threw 15 passes, and he was just 1 of 3 QB sharing time equally. Yet , once again, please note that our 2-headed Tailback Rotation had only 15 carries combined. Closed practice. Partial stats, and a Coach commenting about the partial stats defending Logan Gray’s performance when he clearly was the worst of the 3. Plus don’t forget, we have seen Logan Gray play QB. Quit with the excuses for the kid. Who were the other running backs and what did they get on the ground besides Chapas making 2 catches. And, why hide the fact that Orson Charles only had 1 ball thrown to him all day ?

We are a clueless offense. We remain a clueless offense. And, now the defense, which I figured would be our best in 30 years this season, is clearly a concern until my freshmen class on Defense gets here. We get into a big game, and all we do is throw the football.

oledawg, if Aaron Murray has to play the whole 1st game by himself, why is it that you cannot figure out that that was the game that Zach Mettenberger would have played in for us all to see. And, oledawg says that Coach Richt would not hesitate to put Zach Mettenberger on the field as the Starter in Game 2 on the road, against a good SEC Defense, at night, and against Steve Spurrier.

Arrest / Suspension thing is a big deal. Isn’t it ?

Michael Foster, even in camp last year the running backs were struggling. Caleb King has struggled now since 2007 with his proliferation of inconsistencies. He’s been a no show in all our losses.

Total No Show.

His I can’t practice. I can’t play today has been a large part of it.

Blitz and you get burned, that is what this day proves. Blitzing and technique in tackling is fine, but if you both bite on a short fake by Zach Mettenberger and let him throw the football to a wide open receiver 50 yards down the field, that clearly is a serious issue.

Caleb King is not having any break-out year until he gets his head into the game. NFL scouts would say that he either doesn’t have the toughness to play in the League or that his head is not into wanting the ball. We’ve known for a long time 2007 that Caleb King could run, but if you remove the one long run, he was average and has been below the average of Washaun Ealey who was our Leading Rusher, not Caleb King because he can’t or won’t play. He also misses practices. You sit there and read into this stat of his 1 long run and say he is better than Washaun Ealey and set finally for his break-out season. I will have to see a whole lot more than that to believe he is going to be our guy.

Washaun Ealey, on the other hand was very solid, as he has been since we ripped the redshirt off him in the 3rd quarter of the 5th game. By then, we had realized that we COULD NOT RELY on Caleb King. Duh, is all I can say.

I don’t care where Logan plays. I do believe the defensive coaching staff could use him in the secondary and I believe they are far better equipped to teach him that position than the offensive coaching staff is at teaching him some position on offense, as they have already proved.

It is not so much of a wasted scholarship on Logan Gray as it is an indictment of the offensive coaching staff, who can ONLY make excuses for him and defend him in blogs about his special teams’ lack of play.

We are complaining about the offense, ANYWAY.

Not given all the running backs’ numbers, but what they did give us shows that the QBs threw the football 3 times as many times as they handed the football to the 2-headed tailback position guys.

Threw the football to Orson Charles only once. Idiots.

Threw 2 more interceptions.

$750,000 for the Defensive Coordinator and MORE than that for his Defensive Staff.

Nice.

Now, what is the deal that our offensive coaching staff is so far undermanned compared to those salaries.

Professors ? Go coach football. Duh.

The University of Georgia annual budget is in excess of 2 billion dollars. Where the hell has Michael F. Adam$ WASTED IT to need the football program to give him millions of dollars a year now. And, why is it that I and no one else either will not donate to the University but will to the football program Michael F. Adam$ ? Duh, we hate the guy. So take your weak crap out of here that you are not paid $750,000 as a grad assistant teaching accounting.

Real UGA fans might look at this team who is 1-3 vs the vols the last 4 years and 1-3 vs Florida the last 4 years and say we cannot get out of our own Division of our Own Conference. We might actually not be satisfied going 10-10 vs SEC East competition the last 4 years.

And, yeah, you can break it down to what have you done for us lately when you are TALKING ABOUT A 4-YEAR PERIOD, not the last 2 games.

4 yr average # 96 NCAA Rank in most penalties.
4 yr average 21 fumbles per year
4 yr average 14 interceptions per year
4 yr average 10 wins 10 losses vs SEC East teams

Maybe you want to make excuses for all that. I for one note that in the last 4 years we have LOST 14 GAMES 10 vs SEC East teams alone and that Jim Donnan was fired for losing 13 games his last 4 years here.

BuLLdawg you are wrong about Caleb King. He finished the LSU game with a broken jaw. He came back after just a week away and played the season on a liquid diet. There is no “can’t” or “won’t” with him — you know Ealey would have had a chance to play earlier but HE had an injury that prevented him from getting in the mix earlier. Was his injury just bad luck and Caleb’s is bad character? You make no sense.

On the same vein, I don’t understand the handful of posters here who will call Caleb out. He had a good 2009 season. He had injuries (but AJ missed more play time with his injuries… are you going to call AJ out, too??) and he’s worked hard. He’s worked hard to make sure he and Washaun work as a TEAM. Where is the inconsistency you’re talking about? NO ONE did well against LSU.
How many practices has Caleb missed? We all read about the one this week because he was throwing up. He wasn’t the only kid on the team who was sick and throwing up and out of practice, his missing practice was the only one in the news.

When BOTH kids, Caleb and Washaun, have an incredible season, I’d love to see what you find to talk trash about. I’m sure you’ll find something because it seems you hate just to hate.

Or, is it possibly RED DOG 77 that ONLY YOU can say that Mike Bobo cannot call the plays well, cannot determine who it is who should be Starter and who should be the back-up at any offensive position, cannot prepare the quarterbacks, cannot handle the job of Offensive Coordinator, cannot recruit 1 single solitary offensive player even now for this 2010 recruiting class none from this great state of Georgia on offense wants to play for him EITHER as you say yourself MIKE BOBO CANNOT HANDLE THE JOB OF OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR.

You little girl hiding behind your keyboard can say ALL THIS but I cannot say the same exact thing because God Knows this is ONLY YOUR BLOG although I have posted here Access Atlanta for 25 years. Little girls like you hiding behind your keyboard telling fans what a real fan is feel that it is ok for oledawg to say that if Coach Richt wants Zach Mettenberger as his Starter, that he will start him on the road against Steve Spurrier at South Carolina in Game 2 having been prevented from playing him at all in the warm-up game because of the number 89 arrest / suspension in the Coach Richt Era.

Only you can say how great UGA is at 10-10 vs SEC East last 20 games.

4 years of 21 fumbles a year, 4 years of 14 interceptions a year, 4 years of # 96 in the nation in penalties a year, and 4 years of 14 losses 10 to The SEC East alone. A division which has NOT been good except for Florida. Our offense is the problem and now today our defense is not up for play yet – but hopefully that will get up for play because I said that this season would be our best defense in 30 years and feature the 2 best kickers on any team in America. 10-3 or 9-4. But, I don’t like it that we had our 3 QB throw 3 times as many passes as we handed the ball off to our 2-headed running back position guys Washaun and Caleb because that too is what Mike Bobo has done in the big game except for the 1 game against Georgia tek last year. 1 game. Taught him nothing obviously. Bright ? Smart ? Whatever you said. B.S. He is a BAD OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR, according to YOU.

20 games vs SEC East and we don’t even have a winning record. I point out that only Florida has been any good the last 4 years in the SEC East.

I am NOT satisfied and YOU ARE. You can sit there and whine like a little girl all you want hiding behind your keyboard but the FACTS are that YOU say the exact same thing I do about our Offense

MIKE BOBO is NOT cutting it as Offensive Coordinator.

Caleb King rushed 7 times for 22 yards last year’s G-Day Game.

2007 nothing but hype by you guys about Caleb King. More today.

6 rushes for 12 yards against LSU.

11 carries for 39 yards against Vandie.

9 rushes for 18 yards against the vols in the loss.

10 carries for 39 yards against hapless Arizona State.

7 rushes for 28 yards against Central Michigan whatever that is.

32 yards rushing G-Day game the year before last.

1 rush against Georgia tek in the LOSS for 1 measly yard

Georgia tek would NOT have been Top 25 except for OUR LOSS

1 rush for 1 yard against Florida in the 49-10 LOSS.

What is your excuse for these too ?

1 rush for 5 yards in the loss to Alabama LOSING 31 to NOTHING

At HALT TIME

3 rushes for 9 yards against South Carolina.

The guy is INCONSISTENT. Get over it.

Averages over a yard per carry LESS than Washaun Ealey.

NOT STARTING Tailback but Richard Samuel ahead of him for God’s sake

Oh, he is the only 1 reported as MISSING PRACTICE again this week ?

What about his hamstring all last Fall ?

Waiting for me to point that out too ?

Did NOT play vs Okie State whom Houston beat, but not us.

Okie State was NOT ranked in the Final AP Poll Top 25.

But, no Caleb King.

Did NOT play vs South Carolina.

LSU again last year ate him up 8 rushes for 9 yards.

LSU beat NO TOP 25 TEAM, but beat US.

vols broken jaw and concussion in LSU game

LSU game before broken jaw concussion 8 carries 9 yards LOSS

Florida 5 carries for 19 yards.

Note please he was the Starting Tailback.

18 for 77 yards Kentucky in LOSS

Kentucky ALSO was NOT RANKED Top 25 at 7-6

But, they beat US with Caleb King

Even though Washaun Ealey was redshirted until we figured out we could not rely on Caleb King, redshirted until the 3rd quarter of the 5th game, Washaun Ealey was OUR LEADING RUSHER last year. What does that tell you ? It tells you according to OUR OFFENSIVE BRAIN TRUST that Caleb King was our STARTER. Washaun started only 2 games, and those not even the last 2.

dawgfan,

Oh yes, the Questions for AJ Green WILL BE ABOUT injuries too.

A slew of them already.

The NFL will 100 percent question him about that more than every other question he fields combined.

We could blame all this on the offensive coaching staff.

Every question we debate.

Florida for example, you probably did not notice that 5 guys covered AJ Green when he got injured.

5 guys

We ran the play to him anyway and that is what happened.

Injury bug is an issue with the NFL. They have 53 guys on a roster. That limits having AJ Green at Detroit for example as you discuss in this blog, because Detroit cannot have AJ Green and also have their Georgia tek 1st round draft pick. You cannot do that in the NFL.

In the NFL, you have 53 on the roster, that’s it.

You HAVE to PLAY.

2007 Caleb King was our UGA Bulldogs’ Top-Ranked Recruit. After transferring from Norcross to Greater Atlanta Christian, he got injured. A 5-Star Recruit and Ranked the Number 4 Best Running Back in All of America, Caleb King was redshirted. 2008 and 2009 have produced no where near the pre-injury high school senior year hype. Clearly, Caleb King has been a huge big disappointment. Jonathan Dwyer for example out of Marietta was not considered anywhere in the same class as Caleb King. Now Dwyer goes on to the NFL and we have posters to this blog bragging how Caleb King is finally going to have his Break-Out Year for UGA instead of half of his career here being games of 1 rush for 1 yard. Or, 8 rushes for 9 yards.

4.56 in the 40-yard dash, he has not shown the speed he had as a Junior in High School.

There was no one in the Recruiting Class of 2007 for us that was rated anywhere near as high as Caleb King.

Ryan Mallett, Chad Jones, Eric Berry, Jimmy Clausen these are the guys we were told we got in our Caleb King.

If you read the details at the time, they said QUESTIONS : Durability.

Durability has been THE ISSUE with Caleb King EXACTLY as was said in 2007.

It STILL is what is said today about Caleb King, durability.

Jonathan Dwyer was ranked # 13 running back, slower and bigger more durable than Caleb King ranked # 4 running back in the nation.

He has been anything but the damn hype.

Hyped for his vision, balance and speed, what we have seen is that he does not have patience at the line for the blocks to spring him. It’s been 4 years now since his injury his senior year. When is that going to be behind him ? When will he be consistent ?

When will he do something besides like last year not even playing all Fall with a Hamstring. Then, he comes back to the team in game 3 and game 4 is out again after 8 rushes for 9 yards.

Mike Bobo’s Foundation for his Offense this year is Caleb King his Starting Tailback and Washaun Ealey who is far better buried on the Depth Chart behind this tailback who is supposed to be so great, but in fact has suffered from serious issues with durability.

Caleb King, the Foundation for Mike Bobo’s Offense this coming season ?

I don’t buy into that.

What are YOU going to say when Caleb King AGAIN has some FURTHER EXCUSE for not being able to practice ? For not being able to play ? For playing and having 8 rushed for 9 yards ? For playing and having 1 rush for 1 yard ?

Well ?

DISNEYdawgs.com running in here asking me what I am going to say when he does play all 14 games at 100 yards a game as I know he can ? I am going to say that he is in his contact year. Expected to be the 4th running back in the nation in the NFL Draft, he is sitting here trying to finally have a Break-Out Season. The others all deemed worse than Caleb King coming here, are all going to the NFL Draft while he sits out practice unable to play.

I threw up coach.

What the F is that ?

I threw up at practice.

I went back on the field wiping it from my face, and make the catch. The football coach came over to me and asked me if I didn’t want to play on Defense too ? I said I wouldn’t mind having a chance to hit the QB.

He throws up and sits on the bench.

And, I am here to tell you about it.

Quit with the hype about Caleb King. He’d done NONE of the hype.

So, what if he does ?

Where the F has he been all 2007, 2008, 2009 and now 2010 ?

“I think we can do it,” Caleb King said after practice.

B.S.

I know I can get out there and kick your butt today, blog poster from his cell phone.

Washaun Ealey sat out until the 3rd quarter of the 5th game because the coaches said they were going to REDSHIRT HIM.

BS I think we can do it.

Notice the difference : Washaun Ealey says : “I know the Offense better.” “I feel more comfortable in the Offense.”

4 years here now for Caleb King now this season and Washaun Ealey came in and had to take over for in the inconsistent Caleb King as a true freshman last year.

Washaun Ealey the LEADING RUSHER for UGA Bulldogs.

Not Caleb King.

His mind is not right. “I think we can do it.” The problem with you is that you are so clouded in your reading that you miss it all together having NEVER PLAYED THE DAMN GAME. That is not a football statement. I think we can do it.

A football statement is I know the offense better. I feel more comfortable in the offense, not I think we can do it.

4 years now of LACK OF DURABILITY.

Starting with his senior year in high school.

We recruited him with a visit to my alma mater’s campus on January 17, 20007 after his injury. In fact Coach Richt said that it did not affect him recruiting him as injured once he signed with us Signing Day the next month.

But, you don’t remember any of that either.

You cannot even remember what you said yourself.

“This is pretty much the first spring I could feel comfortable and just let everything loose.” Caleb King said this week. He has been HOLDING BACK.

Duh.

“I think it’s a very big deal running the ball,” Ealey said. “Every great team runs the ball. We’re a major key to this team’s success.” You will NOT see Caleb King saying that. He NEVER has. And Washaun Ealey is a true Freshman saying that while Caleb King on the same day, admits he has been HOLDING BACK the entire time on campus here since 2007.

It’s 2010 now, 4 years later and this is the first time Caleb King pretty much could feel comfortable and just let everything loose.

“We’ve just been talking about gaining yards,” Ealey said. The difference in you and me is that I look at what the player has done and give credit to Washaun Ealey for it. You look at the hype about Caleb King and ask me what if after 4 years now here he does play every game, does rush for 100 yards a game, and I say I haven’t seen it YET.

looks like the defense still has a long ways to go before its really looking like the junkyard D us dawgs fans are all waiting for again…. on a positive note, the offense sounds to be looking good. though its misleading with the defense no being up to full speed yet. king/ealey will be key for the sarting qb(whomever it is). i wouldnt be suprised if zack m. won it, though he majority wants murray to win it(hope he can say healthy in the SEC).

Good to see Caleb King continuing to dominate. Caleb’s conditioning is amazing. He’s getting it done.

The last 5 games of 2009, UGA is averaging 247 yards per game. Good for 5th best in the NCAA out of 118 teams.

LB Sam Maxwell – Kentucky
Aggressive senior defender had a dominant performance vs Georgia that was instrumental in their victory. He is a savvy defender with a quick first step and the power to gain a fast advantage to defeat blocking angles. Maxwell led Kentucky with a career-high 11 tackles, including one TFL in the Wildcats’ 34-27 win. In the final three minutes of the game, Maxwell made two game-saving plays. With Georgia driving for the potential tying touchdown, he stopped Georgia tailback Caleb King at the 1 yard line. On the next play, Kentucky recovered a Bulldog fumble. With 1:45 remaining, he intercepted a pass, clinching the win for the Wildcats. He showed the talent to make plays both inside and at the sidelines. His fine instincts and his ability to run well and drop in coverage at 6’3” 245 lbs. could allow him to be an every down defender and capable of playing in either pro scheme.

UGA #1 ranked rushing attack in the SEC over the last 5 games of 2009, averaging 247 rushing yards per game. Ranked #5 in the Nation. That’s the kind of offensive production it takes to win the SEC. Good to see that train continuing to roll down the track.

Wrong, Brantely complted less than 42% of his 31 passes, and threw an int, and his longest was 25 yards.

Yeah, but Logan didn’t throw any picks, did he? Let’s not beat Logan up too much. After all, he’s probably going to have to at least be the back up for the first game.

It is all about protecting the ball. And the protection or play selection might not have been there for him. Could be just circumstantial. It is one practice guys. There were probably scrimmages where Cox outperformed Stafford but we all know who was the better QB.

Just let them keep competing and see what happens.

And BuLLdawg, I can tell you are passionate and are knowledgeable about UGA football. But your posts are just too long and nobody is reading them. Shorten them up a little bit so we can enjoy your points as well. As an fyi, I’m critical on Richt as well at times. I don’t think he’s the best thing since sliced bread either. If he was that great, he would have won us a BCS championship by now b/c god knows he’s always had the talent.

Peace brother

UGA should be 5-0 Heading into the Tenn game. UGA should have played enough High School Warmup game to know who the QB is and how the D has learned its Job. What is with all the DAWGS fighting each other so early? Louisiana-Lafayette(H), USC, Arkansas(H), Miss. State,and Colorado easy pickings even if 3 of 5 are on the road. Leave BuLLdawg alone and maybe he will not have to write 1000 words for every post.

Like I’ve been saying, it could be worse than UGA, we could have Brantley, the most untested QB in the SEC.

Wow, 42% completion rate, and an intereception and no passes for more than 25 yards.

Doesn’t really compare to Mett or Murray’s 67-70% completion rate, or longest pass of 40-65 yards.

Florida is in DEEP trouble on offense, AND they can’t run the ball without someone fumbling.

Our QB situation looks MUCH better than Florida.

41% completion for Brantley, and he’s the best QB they have? Wow!!!

Pi$$onaDAWG, “high school warm up games?” How about you nerds get PJ and his ever-growing pot belly to go to Columbia to play South Carolina, you know, the team that waxed the acc runner-up last November. SC would spank your butts, just like they may do to UGA. You seen the gut on PJ lately? Looks like he’s carring a little PJ in the 3rd trimester …

Not too hard to shine against that defensive talent which is limited, Mark “2-7″ Richt better start worrying more about recruiting 4 and 5 star defensive players then getting yet another QB.

Guys don’t let the numbers on D fool you. There were a lot of third string guys that played several minutes. For those of you that don’t know, that’s how a scrimmage works, everyone plays. The pass D looked good, D-backs were breaking on the ball much better than last year, the o-line opened up some good holes for the backs. Murry looked good but Mettenberger’s stock certainly went up. Don’t count him out. Unfortunately Marlon Brown didn’t participate but he certainly looked good in his silver and green jersey.

Burton, Florida’s #2, completed more passes than Brantley. So we can’t say it was the defenses fault. Nope, Brantley just choked. Sorry. And Brantley threw an interception in for good measure in the red zone, typical Florida trouble in the red zone continues.

Meyer rolled all the dice in 2009, and lost the gamble. Now, he has an untested QB, no go-to RB (Tebow was leading rusher), and inexperienced WR’s.

My bad, Pi$$onaDawg, didn’t realize “nerd” would offend you. Since you guys obviously don’t have a blog, let’s talk about Tech’s D. I’d take UF’s and UGA’s over that mess. You think Al can fix it? I don’t keep up with the acc (for obviously reasons), but how was Virginia’s D while Al was there?

Tech Blogs as of late weree about Hewitt and I could care less I think he should have taken the money and gone to St. Johns. Well he is still here and we will just see.

I think BuLLdawg is upset he got passed over for offensive coordinator. He clearly was the best candidate. So Darn!!! He’s Right! Whatever shall we do? We’ve got an incompetent offensive coordinator – so forget ever having a quarterback or running back drafted anywhere inside the top 3 rounds. We’ve recruited incompetent idiots. Our line sucks. We should just clone AJ 10 times and line him up everywhere. Whatever shall we do?

And a new defensive scheme? This will be the worst year ever!!! Let’s start a hire BuLLdawg campaign – IF we’re lucky – he’ll get hired in time to sort all this mess out and salvage a 6-6 season. I mean let’s face it – we have NO CHANCE of winning the SEC EAST. We have NO CHANCE of a winning season. We’re CRAP. Just call us the DUKE of the SEC EAST. We’re pathetic – we just look good on signing day.

But the real problem is our coaching. We haven’t won the SEC championship in 25 years. And we haven’t won more than 8 games in . . . at least 12 years now?

FIRE THE WHOLE LOT!!!

HIRE BuLLdawg!!!

HE’s our MAN!!!

YAY!

dc…12:13……..3/28………Thanks for your post, my friend ! Somehow, someway, somebody will figure out chemistry has a whole hell of alot to do with winning in college football ! Personally, I think UGA made some very good hires in the off-season. There is something about coach Todd Grantham, Dude is tough as a pine knot, just what we needed to foster a little chemistry ! I think, as I read more about Spring practice, coach Grantham’s fire is noy only pumping up the defense, but you know how chemistry works, it is spreading to the offense like a wildfire………..Things are shaping up for a pretty interesting 2010………GO DOGS !!!! GATA !!!! WOOF……..WOOF………….WOOF………..WOOF !!!

Fellow Dawg fans, can we all agree that BuLLdawg is a first class idiot and needs to be blackballed from the board. Has he ever said anything positive about the team?

Should we just call him “Chicken Little” as the sky, in his world, must be falling.

Dawgs need some minor tweaks in all phases (minus kicking game) and will be right in the hunt for SEC title (which all SEC fans know means in the hunt for N.C. title as well).
