Emptying the notebook before heading to Colorado …

  • An interesting observation from Mike Bobo about running back Carlton Thomas, the Bulldogs’ smallest player:  “Carlton has never been in a green jersey his whole career here.” Green jerseys are worn at practice by players who have injuries that preclude them from contact.
  • Drew Butler and Blair Walsh can’t wait to kick in Colorado’s mile-high air.

Butler visited a friend in Denver in May and took the opportunity to punt a few balls while he was there. He said they traveled about 3-5 yards longer and were in the air about two-tenths of a second longer, adding to his hang time. “When it’s humid and it’s wet here in the summer, the thick air just holds the ball down, but out there, it’s crisp and the ball flies,” Butler said. “It’s fun kicking.”

Walsh, whose career-long field goal is 53 yards at Oklahoma State in 2009, said he’d like to try a field goal of 60-plus yards in Saturday’s game and will try a kick from 70 yards in warm-ups.

  • A 1-3 record is a shock to the system of Georgia fans — and players.   “I don’t think anybody on the team right now had ever started any season of playing football one and three,” defensive lineman DeAngelo Tyson said.
  • Georgia will be just the second SEC team ever to play a game in Boulder. The only other time an SEC team played there was on Sept. 15, 1979, when LSU beat the Buffaloes 44-0.
  • Counting road and bowl games, Colorado has played a dozen games against SEC teams. The Buffaloes are 2-9-1, including a 14-13 loss at Georgia in 2006.
  • This will be Georgia’s third game against a Big 12 team since the start of last season. The Bulldogs opened last season with a loss to Oklahoma State and ended it with an Independence Bowl victory over Texas A&M. Of course, Colorado won’t be in the Big 12 much longer; the Buffaloes join the Pac-10 next year.
  • As A.J. Green returns from suspension, it’s not clear if Kris Durham, Georgia’s top receiver in Green’s absence, will be able to play. Durham suffered what he called a stretched nerve in his neck late in last week’s game. Durham said he’ll “be fine by Saturday,” but coach Mark Richt called him questionable.
  • Offensive lineman Trinton Sturdivant continues to work his way back. He played 20-plus snaps last week. The plan is for him to play more each week.
  • Todd Grantham has been stressing two things with the defense this week: “start and finish.” The defense has given up touchdowns on the opponent’s opening possession in the past three games.  And then it’s tended to play pretty well until struggling again near the end of the games.

“If you go back to the South Carolina game, the score is 14-6 and it’s late in the fourth quarter and we can’t stop them and get the ball back,” Grantham said. “Go to Arkansas; the score is 24-24 and we have had some stops, we do stop them, then we have to go back out for a two-minute drive and we don’t stop them then. And then you go to this past game [against Mississippi State] and it’s 10-6 late in the fourth quarter and we don’t stop them.

“You’re going to be in all sorts of games, and whatever has happened up until then . . . you got to finish that game,” Grantham said. “That’s the thing in the last three games: We haven’t finished.”

Grantham will be great, the defense is just learning how to play the 3-4. Saban went 7-6 1st year with installing the 3-4 defense at Bama, let’s see if Grantham can equal or top that, I think he will. It just takes time, the guys have to learn how to ADJUST to new stuff, that’s why the 1st quarter has been so bad. By the 4th quarter, the guys are just tired, probably due to the poor conditioning program.

Its clear to me that motivation has been a problem with this team for YEARS! Going way back to to before the black jerseys and all what not. The Florida game where they got the end-zone penalty….that just goes to show how desperate they were then to get the players pumped up. I have often thought this over the past 5 years.

Watch the Ark game again…..there were players on their offense laying hits on our D and then standing over them as if to say, “Thats your place…on your back!”…there was a receiver that stiff armed a Georgia player to the ground, and then he just stepped over him. People are not afraid to play Georgia at all. Save for the occasional Greg Blue type player these guys just seem to be an unmotivated assemblage of individuals……not a team. Play calling, new scheme, fumbles and untimely STUPID penalties aside…the guys dont have the DESIRE instilled in them to win. They lack heart and pride…I hate to say it. But I really feel that it is true.

Watching interviews with Richt is painful….he is sleep walking!!! What is his deal? On one of the other blogs someone who “sounded” like they have some inside info talked about the lack of chemistry. You can see that when you are at a game! Its no wonder! Richt may have been a great offensive mind and Im sure a decent man…..but this is football! As well he doesn’t seem to be doing the guys any favors OFF the field. So what is he doing?

Its gotten pretty hard for me to root for these guys…………

Hey 2-7…how do you know what Durham would have done if someone offered him $1,000 for his jersey right before spring break? We’ll never know because they never will.

Frankly at this point I honestly think the NCAA should just comb through EVERY star player’s bank account to see what they can find. I don’t condone AJ’s decision. It was dumb….and he knows it, but I am 100% sure there a lots of kids who have done a LOT worse things (financially or otherwise) who were playing the past 4 Saturdays.

The NCAA had NO REASON to check his bank statements. He already had plenty of evidence to prove the rumor about Miami was false. So…if they can check his…they need to check everyone else’s.

Furthermore Richt NEVER says the right thing…we lose to USC and he says “Its a tough Conference…you can’t win em all.”!!!!! Can you here Myer or Saban saying that?

Then hes says they gotta keep grinding and stay the course………YOU HAVE TO CHANGE COURSE buddy! Do something! ANYTHING! A win this weekend means nothing…a loss…????

UGA has lost w.o. green for the last 3 weeks …………..I say show him that he is not the only one on this team. He will be gone come 2011 and good riddance. Ealey too, hopefully.

UGA ended up the year AFTER Walker left UGA ranked # 4 having defeated # 1 Texas in the Cotton Bowl without Hershel Walker. Now, them Dogs were men ……….unlike this current crop of players.

Jones roll blocked the kid from the side probably 20 yards away from the play which was effectively over. It was similar to the shot Chris Davis gave his own teammate, Trinton Sturdivant, basically ending Trinton’s career. Richt and Jones’s explanation is a lie, and should result in Miss. State submitting the tape, to the SEC which should take action. The Miss. State kid was taken to the locker room and will miss at least one game and of course Coach Integrity has done nothing and in fact put Jones back in the game the next series. You need to read Jones and Richt’s version of the play. It’s an insult to everyone who’s seen the tape.

That’s exactly what I was trying to say earlier. (And thanks to Falconugafan for explaining to naganole what I was saying).
Football is football: It should be 100% in your face, as hard as you can go until the whistle blows the play dead. Nothing impresses me more than some huge back who lowers his head and meets the defense head on and then offers his hand to the guy on the ground when the play is over.
Cheap shots 20 yards from the play are inexcusable.

Dang, give it a rest, Tide Roll. I saw the film and you can’t hardly see anything. I know he clipped because he got flagged for it and Richt got on him on the sideline. But you can’t tell where he hit the guy. What if Jones tripped as he attempted to get him from the side?

I hope you were this indignant last season about UF’s Spikes obvious attempt to end UGA’s Ealey’s eyesight. Did you go on the UF’s site over and over, harping on that move. I would think losing one’s eyesight is a bit more serious than a sore knee.

Since the LA La game, we’ve scored what, 3 meaningful touchdowns? I’m not talking about the ones when we are double digits behind in the 4th quarter. That’s the only time Bobo remembers to put Murray in the shotgun, and thus, move the ball. The other three quarters, it’s mostly 3-and-out.

Any Dawg fan who thinks CMR must go, is not a loyal Dawg fan. The best way to run away a top shelf class of recruits who will make the program better is to insist the program should be blown apart only to start over.

We have good coaches and with a little tweaking like reassigning the OC back to QB coach, the program will quickly rebound. Give the new coaches time to build a program and support the team 100%.

We need to contribute in positive ways and be positive about the program if we are interested in building a great team. Good HS players want to be the building blocks of a positive and improving football team. Under the best circumstances It will take a full season to rebuild a strong attacking defense. Willie Martinez is gone, but I would suspect the ghost of his prevent defense still lingers. A new DC can’t reverse that multi-year way of thinking in just 4 games. Type B players cannot instantly become Type A players overnight, if at all.

Blowing it up and starting over is not an option at this time. We have a good coach in CMR and he deserves a chance to get the ship in an upright position, especially since the crew is new and must be given the chance to learn how to work together.

Don’t run away prospective top shelf HS players by being a complainer, even if you were born to do that. If you were born that way, stick a sock in your mouth while the program tries to get back on its feet.

GO DAWGS !!!

Being a temporary mascot means I don’t get health insurance. I’m a better risk than those inbred mascots they seem to prefer at UGA. Look at them sideways and they drop dead from heart attack. I have been practicing slobbering and drooling and spilling my beer and I just about have that down. I think I fit in pretty well by now. When I get my degree I will be right where I need to be to make this a permanent gig. One last thing, no a$$ painting this weekend.

Richt is going to dress the dawgs in pink to celebrate mile high. Free Budweiser on the sidelines and AJ selling jerseys to the fans while the defense is on the field.

I think Florida is a little underrated and Bama may be a little overrated. Result? Hell if I know, but it should be a great game. You have to think Bama drops one of its next two.

As for us, I mean I hate to be such a Debbie Downer but I agree with a poster above. What has anyone seen out of us that tells them we can beat a BCS level opponent? Maybe things will change, but based on what has happened so far I don’t like our chances against anyone. Teams either smack us around physically or we find a way to beat ourselves, or both. When does Idaho State come to town?

Am I saying we could go 2-10 this year? If things don’t change in a hurry YES, that is exactly what I’m saying. Best believe.

In the first game Grantham was spitting fire on the sidelines and the defense was responding with passionate play. Then at SC it seemed that Richt must have put the muzzle on him as he was way too reserved and the defense played accordingly. Anyone else see this change?

An open letter to dawg bloggers...

October 1st, 2010
12:25 pm

Reading the blogs makes me feel really old. I remember when being a Dawg fan meant turning up the radio in the garage on a Saturday afternoon to hear Larry will the team to victory because dad has my a#$ elbow deep into a brake job on the car. It was a glorious Saturday when they actually played on TV, and if I got up early and raked leaves before lunch, I might be allowed to watch the whole thing before we did some other chore around the house.

I lived and died on every play during that magical run in ‘80, and I still remember my dad stopping work long enough to hear if Kevin Butler’s moon shot would clear the post and break Clemson’s heart. I saw the footage of that kick years later, and Butler made it by so much I couldn’t believe it. To hear Larry make that call live was to believe that God had to suspend gravity for the last 10 yards or so just so Georgia would win. Those joys carry me through seasons like this when everything seems to be going wrong.

Maybe most of you guys on here are too young to remember when good people didn’t have much, and everybody had to work hard to make a living. Maybe you are all de-sensitized to how special it is to have somebody else fighting hard every week to represent your school and your team. Maybe you are so comfortable in your air conditioned rooms with your daddy’s roof over your head and $100 in you wallet that you think it’s OK to belittle and condemn student athletes who spend hours each week toiling away trying to better themselves and bring honor to their school.

The real reason you spew this crap about everyone from the coaches to the players to our own fans who disagree with you is this: So much of what you have in this life comes to you with no effort on your part. Since you don’t earn it, you place no value on it. The only thing you value is your own pleasure and comfort, so when the team loses, it’s an affront to your pride. Someone must pay, so you type away to show your cleverness and tear people down.

Me, I’ll cheer them win or lose, and worry about the coaches performance when the season’s over and my boys don’t need my cheers to keep them fighting when they’re tired and feel like giving in. Maybe someday you’ll get a clue and realize the same joy I have from cheering for a school with an honorable tradition and devoted coaches. Treasure the victories and wash off the defeats. Life’s too short for anything else. But most of all, don’t dishonor UGA by being the most classless fair weather fans in the SEC. Grow a pair and stop tearing us down. There’s too much Orange in this world that deserves a beating for you to waste your bile on your own team!

If Durham can go keep him as #1 WR. If Green gets in a groove run his arse off. He could use the stats. And people please get off his back, the kid made a mistake, paid for it and is moving on.

I hope to see the following three things together this weekend: Washaun, the football and the endzone.

Open letter:
Here’s the problem.
In your third paragraph, you say “…belittle and condemn student athletes who spend hours…honor to their school”
I have no problem with those guys. Look at Durden. Class act, and it shows when he plays. Same with Murray.
The problem is the “playas” who seem to be only interested in “me”. The 10 this year, and the others before them. I question whether some of these people are college material.
Dancing on the field when you’re getting your butt kicked? Give me a break.
Should they strive to bring honor to their school, they will have earned respect.

Buffs were 3-9 last year for the 2nd year in a row and haven’t had a losing season in 5 years. This is a really bad program. Does Georgia ever schedule a top 1-3 tier team in a BCS conference- an OU, Ohio State, Penn State, VT, USC, or do they just take middle tier teams that suck like ASU, Colorado, Ok state- finished out of top 25 last year and have never won their division? Oh, wait. Dawgs did have Oregon scheduled which is now a power in the pac 10. Oh, what happened? Oh, that’s right. Dawgs canceled it. Cowards!

The best way to tell if the dawgs will win on Saturday is if they come out crossed arms like they used to on road games in the start of CMR era. Every time they did that they one and played together. Optimistic but if we lose this one man were really in trouble as far as recruiting goes.

Maybe the most important game for the DAWGS in the last decade. Not in light of most hyped match but because of the integrity of the program is at stake. 1-4 would be hard to comprehend as much or more than 1-3 with a loss to Mrs. State.

If we loose this week I am not sure the ships direction can be corrected with the current make up. Dooley’s Vols will be licking their chops.

This is a Man up week or should I say DAWG up. Are they DAWG enough?

Colorado was a middle of the pack and on the rise program when Damon scheduled them. Oklahoma State was the same and actually ranked in the top 20 when UGA played them last year. Louisville was scheduled when Bobby Petrino had the Cardinals playing great ball. So, please save useless garbage that you’re spilling on our blog.

Scheduler, Oregon AND UGA decided to cancel the series. Mutual cancellation. Florida does it BAMA does it. Our new scheduling philosphy does not vary that much from any other program in the country. This season we are on the road for the third straight week. Arkansas, Miss State and now out to Colorado. That’s not easy even when you are in top notch shape and we aren’t.

Also everybody sees the Boise State schedule and sees that that will get you to #3 in the country.

Here’s a thought….UGA should move to Boise St’s conference and play their schedule with the toughest game at the beginning of the season where you can have all summer to game plan. Then play the powder puffs each week with maybe another BCS foe sprinkled in somewhere. Go undefeated then have the whole month of the season to prepare for a bowl game. This sounds like a good recipe for getting to (hmmm, where is Boise St ranked?)….umm #3. Yeah, that’s right, let’s do it….excuse me Mr. McGarity, do you have a moment……

Grantham has got to get teams off the field on 3rd down period.The O got the ball once in the 3rd quarter and with 4 minutes left in the game down 17-6 last week…that is unacceptable..

Us Yellow Jackets average 25-30th best recruiting class every year and we still compete and are ranked nationally EVERY YEAR. If Tech had a top 5 recruiting class every year we would be a CONSISTENTLY top 10 team. Just goes to show you the kind of hard working, motivated players/Individuals that go to Tech compared to the “4 and 5 star” lazy thug recruits that go to UGA just looking for a frat party to attend and an easy major that they can coast through. Straight up sorryness going on over there in Athens.

I’ve never understood how anyone – even an alumnus – could support and take pride in UGA’s football team. When you look at their history for the past forty years, how can anyone ignore Jan Kemp and the “remedial studies” scam, the Jim Harrick fiasco, the DUIs in the athletic office, the DUIs and other arrests of players, the #1 party school tag (i.e., the most drunk students), the suspensions and outright dismissals, the Fulmer Cup, and on and on?

As disgraceful and humiliating as it is, I don’t see many alums and fans demanding an end to this sordid activity. It sets UGA apart as the kind of school most people abhor, and it’s become an embarrassment to the whole state of Georgia.

Will it never end? Apparently not while Mark Richt is at UGA. Richt is perhaps the biggest hypocrite in the United States. But even with all the cheating and lawlessness that he ignores, he still can’t win the SEC.

So you’re paying him to be BCS champions, but he can’t even win his SEC division. So why do you pay him millions of dollars a year?

Just asking.

Since dawgtards seem to love living in the past, how about remembering the Jan Kemp trial, which exposed UGA and Vince Dooley for the jokes that they were. My favorite quote from the trial was this one:

O. Hale Almand Jr., a lawyer for the defense, offered a justification for the favorable treatment accorded the athletes, citing a hypothetical player. “We may not make a university student out of him,” he told the jury, “but if we can teach him to read and write, maybe he can work at the post office rather than as a garbageman when he gets through with his athletic career.”

The best thing about the trial was that it completely killed Vince Dooley’s shot at Congress, since he was exposed as a fraud and a cheat during the trial. Make no mistake – Dooley knew everything that was going on.

Nothing has changed in the almost three decades since the trial. If anything, the abuses are even worse. Exhibit #1: Jim Harrick and son.

Today the players are even more illiterate and felonious and, well, just plain stupid, as evidenced by their arrest records and record number of penalties. Even Vince Dooley couldn’t have controlled this mob, much less Mark Richt. And now even the AD is a drunk debaucherer.

There’s a reason why UGA is known as The Cesspool of the South.

Washaun has regressed as a football player. He is headed in the wrong direction. Caleb runs like he’s afraid to make a cut. Maybe we just line up with Carlton at TB and maybe but Chapas back there every now and again.

Your own message boards could benefit from the wealth of knowledge you have to share. Surely you are welcome somewhere.

It boils down to class and basic home training. No one has shown y’all how to respect others. Technically, you should know better, as you have recieved some form of formal education. In other words, if you have the intelligence to come on here tryin’ to put down our program, you should have some basic understanding of values and ethics.

Morally, what’s worse? Getting a ticket and fleeing, or hiding behind a keyboard and slinging taunts toward your in-state brothers.

Getting caught for DUI as an 18 year-old, or wasting your intelligence on attempting to demoralize others.

Seems to me…….if you have all this knowledge, you should know better than to be on here TROLLING.

Colorado joins a PAC-10 conference next season which has ZERO (0) BCS National Championships – the only BCS conference without a BCS NC Game Win.

The other part of the B.S. by the media is that there are ALL THESE GREATEST RIVALRY GAMES in College Football, they say :

Michigan Ohio State
Notre Dame Southern California
Texas Oklahoma

I have a question for those media promulgating such B.S.

Why has SEC Won 4 in a row BCS National Championship Games 6-0 ?

Why does PAC-10 have 0 BCS National Championship Game wins 0-2 ?

Why does the ACC have 1 BCS National Championship Game win 1-2 ?

Why does Big 10 have 1 BCS National Championship Game win 1-2 ?

Why does Big East have 1 BCS National Championship Game win 1-2 ?

Why does Big XII have MOST LOSSES in BCS Nat Champ Games at 2-5 ?

4 SEC programs have Won The BCS National Championship Game 6-0.

2 SEC programs have Won The BCS National Championship Game twice.

And, then there is Georgia with Georgia fans saying that we are the 4th best football program in The SEC. I have seen some say we are better than that at 20-15 vs SEC after 2005 season through this morning.

We damn sure ain’t very spiffy. Let’s brag about The SEC even if at 20-15 we absolutely cannot compete in The SEC for now the 5th Consecutive Freaking Season in a bloody damn row.

20-15 over now this year the last 5 years vs SEC, and Coach Richt is the 3rd best coach in the United States of America.

B.S.

UGA players live dumb

October 2nd, 2010
5:47 am

What part of smart don’t UGA players understand. Don’t break the law and they do. Don’t commit fouls and they do. Don’t sell your career and team for a thousand bucks and they do. Don’t loaf around the field during the game and they do. Don’t fumble and they do. Don’t act like street thugs and gang members and they do. Play smart and they don’t. Don’t drink and they do. Have a valid drivers license and they don’t. Give it all you got and they don’t. Leave all you have on the field and they don’t. Be smart and they act dumb and live and play like idiots. I know there are some good players on the UGA team but the majority of the team act and play like they have no clue to football and life. I am about ready to kiss UGA football and all athletics goodbye. It just isn’t worth the bother anymore. Stupid is as stupid does and Georgia don’t have very many smart players.

Heartless!

October 2nd, 2010
5:53 am

The word for Mark Richt’s teams is “heartless”. Where is the pride, the passion, the guts, the toughness, the tenacity? Where is the give it all you got mentality? Where is the “meaner than a junkyard dog” attitude? Richt’s teams look clueless on the field and stand around waiting for the game to be given to them because they are UGA. CMR and Georgia have lost the “it” factor. They are heartless and you will never succeed and win when your heart’s not in it. Georgia’s heart hasn’t been there for a long time.

MOB!!!

October 2nd, 2010
5:59 am

The past few UGA football teams have been mobs instead of teams. A lawless mob prowling the streets at all hours of the night doing whatever their evil law breaking hearts want to do.
Almost fifteen percent of the entire team has joined this mob of lawbreakers. And to thank these players are suppose to be heroes and examples to our children. The mob (gangsta) rules at UGA and Coach Richt don’t seem able to get their attention or do anything about it.
CMR is running scared and too afraid to can Bobo for his boo boos. The members of the Dawg mob needs to go and if they don’t go … the coach should go. I am sick and tired of picking up the newspaper with the headlines “Another Georgia player arrested”. If CMR can’t control his players off the field, how does he ever expect to control them on the field?

Coaches and Players Have No Heart

October 2nd, 2010
6:11 am

I think one of the major problems on the current UGA team is a lack of desire. All of the Bulldogs’ opponents seem to be playing with a more consistent level of desire and clarity of purpose. Maybe that’s a coaching flaw within Richt’s staff. Maybe it’s a question of leadership in the Bulldogs’ locker room. Whatever it is, it stinks and I am tired of smelling it.
If CMR can’t get the intensity, passion, desire and heart back into the UGA program, he needs to go. No desire makes me sick. Dumb players (on and off the field) turns my stomach. UGA stinks because the program is graveyard dead and dead things always stink.
I could take the losses better if quality young men were giving “their all” for the honor of representing UGA.

More than likely, it’s a combination of the two.

So what should we expect from the Bulldogs fo

Hahaha. The poor, pitiful dawgs are 1-3. When are you guys ever going to get a real football coach? Looking forward to being in Jax for the Gators 18th win in the last 21 years. It ought to be another 4 or 5 touchdown beatdown. Go Gators!

Worst season since Ray Goff, so far.

Just got back from Walmart with a sackful of Dawg gear-hat, rain gear, coozies, sweater and shirt. Even got a todler’s outfit for my niece. All for 49$. Everything is on sale at 70% off. Is America great or what?? Now for the Boulder game, Ive got the wings and enough beer to drown in. this is definitely the turnaround we have been waiting on. The refs are SEC also, but from my past observations, they all hate the Dawgs. The SEC Championship game is definitely on the table. We run the table and even the BCS Championship is doable. Now get off their asses and root hog for the Dawgs.

If UGA loses this game (which there’s a good chance) CMR will not be remembered for the good seasons…he’ll be remember for never being able to get it done. It’s now or never for CMR….

I cannot wait to hear the comments at the end of the season when the Dawgs have won the SEC Championship game in Atlanta (Damon Evans favorite liberty port.) NO I am not dillusional-just look at the way the schedule is in our favor. We have gotten all the losses out of the way with our toughest opponents and now nothing left but cupcakes. GT has zero chance against my Dawgs. The Dawgs defense will stifle the 8th grade offense of CPJ. The Heisman Candidate could not complete a pass to a lake. It is hillarious seeing these Jackets wannabes thinking they have a chance against my Dawgs.

Rogue U,

I question respect on sports talk radio-Thats debateable for any program. I do think our program is in shambels and if Richt looses tonite I dont think he recovers from that. We are under achievers and have been for 3 years. I wish I new the answer to what it will take to right the ship.Only thing I know of is to WIN! That doesnt appear possible with this team though.

“A lawless mob prowling the streets at all hours of the night doing whatever their evil law breaking hearts want to do.”

You are a freaking idiot. All 10 arrests were misdemeanors. They were dumb, but not nearly as dumb as you undoubtedly are. The arrests are embarassing and a black eye for the program, but I’m tired of brainless idiots like yourself trying to turn them in to something they are not. We’ve got a group of incredibily stupid players on our team, but they are not hardened felons. Please shut the crap up. Thanks.

The dawgs have not been ready for a season in a long time. This is the SEC. The best conference in the nation. What is MR doing with the time allowed to coach these players. Coaches like Saban and Meyer run at tight ship. No time to swim. GA players do not deserve to swim. Penalties, poor blocking, poor tackling, Not playing 4 quarters, and bad play calling. I can tell you what play the dawgs are running. This is embarrassing.

Listen UGA fans, I don’t think its good for CMR to get the team on the sideline in a circle to give them a pep talk. That needs to done in the locker room. I believe he does that to impress dawg fans. Just like at the Fla. game some seasons ago. The incident in the end zone. All the players celebrating. All that did was infuriate the Gators fans and players. And look what happened the very next season. UGA got STOMPED. Just a thought, I like CMR but sometimes I queston his tatics.

They are talking about Georgia’s issue nationally. I watched SEC Gridiron show with Tim Couch and Randy Shannon yesterday, and immediately following was a Fox Sports show on the same Comcast channel. They had a segment on the “Richt on the hot seat issue.” The hostess called on a guy by video somewhere in the field who said that Muschamp would be the likely replacement, and they showed some clips of his “fiery coaching”.

I thought that this was a local issue among the fan base.

I am watching all the games on TV. All the players on other teams look more physical, more discipline, in better condition,etc etc etc. This program has a lot of problems. It is so hard just to watch ga being so poorly coached. HOW MANY YEARS DO THE FANS HAVE TO WATCH MR LET HIM AND HIS COACHES MESS EVERYTHING UP. ITS EMBARRASING

Now, if you’re a Georgia fan in the Atlanta market, Dish has created a loophole for you. They’ve made channel 9667 (Comcast Rocky Mountain) available to you, which is the local broadcast in Boulder, so you’ll hear biased commentary, but at least you’ll get to see the game.

Did you really just say that UGA is going to win out, win the SEC, AND go to the NC? Obviously you are f**king stupid, and you further provide great jokes for us GT fans and UGA haters nation wide. You completely fit the stereotype of the obnoxious, dilerious, ignorant DAWG fan.

I see alot of UGA fans very upset and being realistic about ya’lls situation and you are just a complete idiot and need to shut your mouth cuz your making your entire fan base look horrible. Get a grip, you guys suck, admit it. And lay off the crack or moonshine or meth or whatever the hell your smoking because you have obviously lost it.
