Georgia will revise ‘7-6′ record on senior plaques
Georgia distributed plaques to its senior football players at its annual awards gala last month with 7-6 inscribed as the team’s record, even though the Bulldogs were 6-6 at the time.
Central Florida heard about that and naturally took umbrage, considering it a sign that Georgia was taking the Knights lightly and presuming a Liberty Bowl victory.
Not so, according to Georgia, which says it routinely includes a bowl victory in the record on the senior plaques and then makes a revision in the event of a loss.
“Did not have anything to do with taking UCF lightly,” Georgia associate athletic director Claude Felton said in an e-mail today. “Every year we present the senior plaques at our football Gala, which is always held before the bowl game. One line on the plate is the season record, and we always list it with a win in the upcoming bowl game.
“If we lose the game, we replace the plate. We’ve done that 14 straight years and only had to replace the plate three times.”
Central Florida, of course, beat Georgia 10-6 in the Liberty Bowl — Georgia’s first loss in its past five bowl appearances and third in its past 14, dating to 1997. So Georgia’s 23 seniors will be getting new plates bearing the 2010 team’s accurate record: 6-7.
Estimated cost of the revision is $200.

Romedawg, if it was your young person receiving award, you would want to see them receive it at the Gala in December. Remember we are a trophy oriented society that from age 3 up everybody gets a trophy or plaque. I guess you believe that the AD should mail it to them FedEx and cost even more…oh…well….

What is even more embarrassing is that UGA would even accept a bowl game bid at 6-6. I would have had more respect for them had they declined the bowl bid stating that due to their performance this year, they do not deserve to go to a bowl. No .500 team should be going to a bowl.

UGA may have done this before the last 14 bowl games, but it is a bit presumptuous.
I am sure that Vince Dooley never did this – he would have made Louisiana-Lafayette appear equal to the NE Patriots and would have told the players that nothing was taken for granted.

I went to the Carolina game, the Tennessee game and the Liberty Bowl this season. I drove over 1,400 miles just to go to the Liberty Bowl (Charleston SC to Memphis). UGA lost two of the three, despite having better talent than all three opponents. I will not spend another dime on UGA football until the administration at Georgia makes sweeping changes in their football program. Enough is enough. The staff at UGA couldn’t coach its way out of a wet paper sack. For Richt to accept those tremendous paychecks of his is almost criminal.

Another thing is when our players celebrate by jumping up and down, beat their chest or say something that makes them seem like they are world beaters. I think that the coach should ban players looking like idiots when they end up losing the game.
All celebrations should wait until the end of the game and if I was coach I would bench anybody that want personal recognition for catching a touchdown pass or intercepting a pass when as a team you haven’t finished the drill. I don’t care what one person does if we lose the game. This is a team sport and I think we have entirely to many individualist.

Do any of you remember the first game this year. Our new def coord was throwing his hat, getting in players faces, and just going like a mad man. I did not see that again the rest of the year. Why? My guess is cmr told him we didn’t do things that way at UGA. A team takes on the personality of it head coach (as well as the other coaches) If there is not intensity there, then the team will be laid back Don’t think cmr can become a different personality.. Change is needed.

Most likely 7-6 was supposed to motivate the players to win the bowl game. Shows no-one even looked at them. Maybe the coaches should go and take all the players with them and we can start fresh. For everbody who looked down on Central Florida they were the best defense UGA played this year. Maybe Murray got lots of pictures with his Micheal Jackson gloves on to put hang on his I love me wall. All in all I guess you can say this was truely the year of the dog.

As a GT fan I am surprised that this made front page headlines on the AJC online edition if the explaination given by the Atheletic Department is true. However, the practice of assuming a bowl win does seem highly presumtious (sp) especially after a 6-6 season.

Michigan has the guts to fire who they need to fire, unfortunately, UGA has no clue how to run a championship program. UGA has Dooley’s head so far up their boosters a#$ they cannot see daylight.
This entire season has been a total slap in the face starting with a losing records, loss to UCF, then Muschamp and other UGA staffers going to your worst nightmare….Florida. Nothing better than watching a former UGA player thump on his former team….Yeal Baby!!!

This is exactly what is wrong with Richt, this man has absolutely no control over his program even something as simple as Seniors plaques. After you get guys to give you 4 yrs out of their lives, the coach should always make sure anything involving seniors is taken care of. I know everyone loves his christian attitude, but even at church they they manage to get awards & plaques correct at their functions!

As a man of faith, I must say this, growing up in a family that revolved around our faith it is clear that order must maintained in one’s home. It is very clear that Mark Richt is considered the head of this program, but this man is not providing the leadership & guidance that trickles down from top to bottom in a family. If UGA’s football program was an actual family it would be totally dysfunctional.

There was no interest in this game from the ‘get go’. Georgia should have politely stepped back from the bowl process acknowleging that a .500 team was not a UGA level team and did not warrant a bowl game.
Realize that one of the reason that the bowl was taken was for the additional opportuntiy to practice and evaluate players coming back, etc. In this case, the QB coming in from N.C. was able to start practicing; but the honorable thing to do would have been to decline.
UGA was disinterested and the play calling unimaginative. Bowls should be fun and creative; especially when they mean absolutely ‘nothing’. Get kids on the field that haven’t seen the field. Try different looks, trick plays – make it creative. And tell everyone up front your going to do it – win/lose or draw. Bobby Bowden built an entire program from scratch with this philosophy.

I graduated in physics from the University of California at Berkeley 1961. We did not receive the diplomas at the graduation ceremony because too many students flunked out the last semester.
Since these diplomas had to be printed on special paper with special print, the preparation cost for them was high. They did not want to waste money destroying diplomas which were not used and also did not want to give out diplomas to anyone who had not earned them. They won few football games because, unlike UGA, none of the professors in the various departments would lower standards for football players.
What is needed at UGA, is for the legislature to force this professional football entertainment business off the campus forever. What do they want to be on campus for anyway? They could begin by charging them rent of about $ 1 million per month for use of state owned facilities on campus. This might get their attention. Double the rent every year until they get out. Is there some shortage of football entertainment or something? Why it shouldn’t even be called sports anyway. Look at how they paid Idaho to travel across the country to lose to them.
Isn’t there something illegal or at least very wrong with all this nonsense? What does football entertainment have to do with “higher education” anyway? There are thousands of other human activities more significant and important than football entertainment.

Wow. That’s more than a little arrogant on UGA’s part to ASSUME they’re going to win the bowl just because they’ve only lost 3 times (now 4) in the past 14 years. Why not wait until AFTER the bowl game to present the senior plaques and get it right the first time? It’s not that hard, and I’m sure you can work something out with those seniors who graduate in December. It also saves the money of the reprinting/re-engraving when they have to replace it, and what are they supposed to do with the old, incorrect ones? It’s wasteful..

The Athletic department at Georgia also gave embroidered red panties with 7 and 6 on them at the banquet. The team wore them during the game and after they lost they took them off and put them on backwards so that the 6 and 7 record could be worn with pride.

The reason UGA can distribute plaques to players and then spend the money to change the plate is because they ARE NOT USING THEIR MONEY to pay for it. What we have is a bunch of fat cats living off tax payers (us) money.
If they had to use “their” money, common sense would prevail.

However, it’s sad to see the state of UGA Football, once a national powerhouse, now awarding plaques for a losing season.
When did our “Football Factory” become junior league girl’s soccer where they don’t keep score and “everybody is a winner”?

That’s a shame. First this program needs to have more wins than arrest. Get some discipline on this team. Get players that wanna REALLY play for UGA, players that have the fundamentals on tackeling, blocking, motivated and have heart. Bo Bo has had his chance time for him to go. Grantham, willing to give him time to get players to run his scheme. Head coach MR, win 10 or more games, beat Fl and win a BCS bowl game to save his job. The current state of this football program is a disgrace to Georgia.

Oh, and by the way. All this talk of firing this assistant or that assistant coach is a bunch of whoodo, you folks obviously don’t know crap about coaching or leadership. It ALL starts from the top. It is totally Mark Richts job to see to it that his coaches are coaching. I think CMR is trying to do too much on field coaching himself. It does not seem to me that he knows how to coach his coaches. I think he can coach players just fine. But he has got to realize that he needs to be coaching his coaches and they better transfer to the players his message or they will be gone. That ain’t gonna happen because the consiquences for screwing up are not severe enough.

I’m a UCF grad and fan living in Atlanta, and this is the first I’m hearing of this so I for one am glad the AJC reported it. It is certainly compelling to our team, the ever-underdogs, to hear that our opponent assumes a bowl win before they even play. I don’t understand why this is “policy” in the first place…. other than whoever orders the plaques is indeed assuming a bowl win. It is poor sportsmanship on the school’s part, not the players. At any rate, I’m glad UCF was able to show everyone that C-USA is able to compete with everyone else.

God knows if UGA had played Ohio St 10 times in bowl games over the last 10 years, UGA would be hard pressed to have .500 record. Year after year Georgia fans ride the coattails and accomplishments of the national caliber teams in the SEC to make themselves feel better. Stop living vicariously through AL, AU, UF and LSU and do something about your 3rd tier football program.
