Look for Mark Wretch to ballyhoo wins over inferior opponents to compile a smoke and mirrors mark. The two tests true Dawgs fans were interested in have already passed. Both were dismal failures! One was lost shot at return to prominence. Other was SEC killer! True Dawg fans know rest of season is just playing out string. That is the truth!

Awesome that the first comment on all these blogs is from some dimwit troll… warms the heart to know they have no life on a Saturday night.

Has it been mentioned that the best receiver on the field had ZERO catches? And the only time he was thrown to, he shouldn’t have been thrown to (interception). There’s no excuse for that, whatsoever.

Aaron Murray should take responsiblity fort this L. The fumble he had sealed the game. Can’t make those plays as UGA’s leader…Crowell had that “factor back” mentality. If Richt doesn’t start him, he’s an idiot…Defense had to stop the run! I know Lattimore is a stud, but Boise State RB found holes the same way. Secondary did ok, but our front seven gotta get to the runners……CHUUUUUUCH.

The problem at Georgia, I think, is that it has become a program that lives off ‘what could have been’ and not wins and losses. The fans get excited over the potential, and year after year, settle for medicrity. You don’t see the Alabama’s, LSUs and Florida’s accepting losing, even when they outplay their opponents, but lose the game.

Georgia played much better tonight but that still doesn’t change the fact that our coaching staff is mediocre, at best. I love Coach Richt and the class act that he is, but he is paid to win games, and his record over the past 4 years tells the story. Time for a new regime. No more “let’s give him another year or 2 with these players”. The story will be the same 2 years from now.

I know we lost, but I feel good about our team. We can get on a roll here with this schedule coming up. Crowell should be the starter from now on. No doubt about it. If he gets the ball 30 times a game, he’ll carry us to an SEC title. I expect SC to lose more than 1 SEC game. This season is not over by any means. We can still go to the SEC title.

You only get so many opportunities to win the game that will turn the program around. CMR is running out of mulligan’s. UGA might have forgotten how to win.However, the turn-around and game plan was a shock to me. Kudos to CMR and Bobo. Just wondering why they didn’t do that against Boise. And that is the crux of it with CMR. He was desparate this week, so he scrimmaged TWICE and UGA ran out of the I and established the run. After UGA runs off about 4 wins in a row against this easy schedule, he will revert back to not scrimmaging in practice and throwing out of the shotgun every down. That’s when he will lose to someone he’s not supposed to lose too and why he won’t beat UF or AU. However, tonights performance gives him the right to try to make something of the seasdon and save his job. I just don’t think he will do it. I hope I’m wrong.

I’m proud of the team today even in defeat. I thought we dominated the game and lost it on 4 plays. Run defense was good today. Offense scored points and left some on the field. Jarvis Jones is a beast. Crowell ran well. Glad to see more of Figgins as a lead blocker and cathing balls out of the backfield. I like the sweep plays when Figgins is the lead blocker. Receivers had a few drops on catchable balls. Cordy Glenn definitely wiffed the block on Murray’s fumble.

How can any real fan who watched that game not be at least pleased with the effort. The INT isnt the coaches fault neither is either fumble we dont make those mistakes we win by at least 2 td’s! Hell even Tom Brady throws INT’s does Bilicheck get blamed? If you’re a real fan lets get behind these kids and their coaches because good days are coming this is the SEC! Its not easy to beat a bad SEC team let alone a good one! And when you have 4 major miscues you can not expect to win.

This game is what I believe will be the game that gets them back on track watch and see!

Ace70 has it right: our team finds a way to lose the big games. For all of you Richt supporters, you do realize that the win total from last year means that he was paid $500,000 per win.
I agree that the team looked better prepared for today’s game than they did last week, but our vaunted special teams (”best in the country” is what I have seen here for weeks now) cost us dearly with the missed FG and the failure to stop SC’s fake punt.

Anybody blaming this on turnovers need look no further than the offensive line. Crowell botching the handoff, Murray’s INT and fumble, etc… There was no pass protection. USC has an AMAZING defensive line, so I can understand them getting pressure. So who to blame? Well, if you know they’re going to beat your offensive line and you wait until the second half to start calling screens and slants to get behind their linebackers, you have only the playcaller to blame. Bobo didn’t account for the blitz. There’s 3 ways to beat a blitz: 1) throw away from it, 2) throw behind it, 3) run away from it. Somehow we just sat in the pocket and watched it come (INT and fumble), or ran right at it (Crowell’s handoff that was botched due to the pressure coming his way). I love Richt, but he’s too nice to fire Bobo, and so he’ll have to face the music at season’s end.

It seems like we’ve been hearing the same thing at these post game press affairs for years. Wait. It has been years! With CMR “we’re always close.” Good teams don’t gift wrap wins for their opponents time after time. UGA almost always has the better players, yet, “we just let this one slip away.” Great coaches teach their teams to minimize errors. With Richt, it’s always the excuse. “We’ll get to work and overcome it,” Richt says. WHEN? I feel bad for the players because they did leave it all out there. But Murray sounds just like Richt. He has not beaten one decent team. Richt still makes mistakes a guy coaching in the SEC should never make. And there’s your difference. We have some really exciting players who deserve much better.

Crowell is a baller for taking credit for the fumble, but it’s not all on him. Murray was limping badly after the play before and refused to come out. Timing on hand-offs between a RB and his QB is crucial. I knew before it happened that Murray wasn’t 100% and that something was going to happen. Sure enough… The ball wasn’t where Crowell would normally get it. Murray screwed his team into the ground. Gritty? Yes and I respect him for that. But he pretty much lost the game for his team mates. An INT happens. But learn how to take a sack. And if you’re hurt, don’t be a martyr.
And CMR stood by and let it happen.

The BEST Quarterback in the entire SEC.

So, where are you twits who told me this repeatedly ? Where, oh Lord, are you now ?

14 losses the last 28 games.

Not even a winning record vs SEC East over 6 consecutive seasons now.

Blogs, oh blogs that only allow those who say POSITIVE lies.

Poster after poster who say they have the ‘Dawgs’ backs. Do they ? That right ? They have them by trying to float by us all that Mark Richt is the # 4 best college football coach in all of America by adding up wins and not discussing ANY losses, like his 3 wins 10 losses vs teams ending up in the AP Poll Top 10 and like his 16 losses to teams who did not or would not have finished in the Top 25 without having beat Mark Richt. Mark Richt, whose 1 win in the last 10 games vs ranked teams at game time, is over a Georgia tek team who played only 4 games that season and lost 3. Cheated to do that. NCAA PROBATION back-to-back in FOOTBALL – Mark Richt could have lost that game, and Georgia tek would have forfeited to him anyway. 2006 Auburn ended # 9 and that is the last win six (6) seasons ago over any team who finished in the AP Poll Top 10 and we lost to 4-win Vandie 2006 too along with 4 losses 2006.

There is a load of talent on this team. Way loaded. We need to get a guy back in the secondary who is our best football player on the entire team. We need to ask ourselves what we are saving Malcolm Mitchell for to bring him in the 2nd half of every game, to prove to me that this man is very special. Why the 2nd half, while we languish on every 3rd and long calling our preposterous draw play lucky to come up short by just a few.

Georgia has not had a signature SEC win since 2007. If Greg McGarity continues to ignore this fact… NOTHING will happen! UGA fans will still show up — not because they dislike their team’s underachievement and their inept coaches — but because the tailgating is BETTER than the game. THAT”S WHY, the fans show up week after week. The game is anti-climactic. The UGA Bulldogs are on par with the CHICAGO CUBS! Until the fans wise-up and just stop showing up for the mess that is a CMR coached team, the coffers will be full and the PARTY ROLLs ON!!! Sad but 100% accurate.

Yes, great job you players and coaches 13-13 vs SEC East teams these last 6 seasons, 14-14 these last 28 games overall, 0-2 including tonight handing the game to Steve Spurrier when we had them beat, a come-from behind improbable win for South Carolina ONLY because Aaron Murray (1) flung the football at Isaiah Crowell not putting the ball in there properly at all (2) throwing the interception to put South Carolina in the lead as he did last week to Boise State too (3) being flung around like a RAG DOLL coughing up the fumble quick 6 at our goal line and (4) wasting the first 3 trips to their end zone himself by all 3 times making horrid throws and SETTLING for field goal attempts, any 1 of which would have actually won the game even with HIS turnovers (1) (2) and (3.)

You are the problem around here SETTLING for this crudola as a well-coached football team. And, we have so much obvious talent out there : MISMANAGEMENT of the talent is so much fun to cheer on. I love it so much, you know.

Great job team. You are really doing well. We just love spending our $10,000 a year supporting this LOSING FOOTBALL PROGRAM. That is my dream in life you know ? I so enjoy LOSING. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, so unaccustomed to actually winning a game against any ranked team as we are – with NO signature win, not any great season of our own have we ever had ANY signature win.

Resign ?

Mark Richt has only 1 goal every year. To tithe to the Church at least 10 percent of everything. 10 percent of just his annual total compensation is 10 percent of three and a half million dollars $ 3,500,000

$ 700,000 tithe per year by Mark Richt, more than he is worth by itself.

A tithe, you see, the Church says is on everything and we know Mark Richt is a good Christian.

It is not just 10 percent of gross total compensation, and we know Mark Richt is a good Christian.

It is not for Mark Richt therefore $350,000

Richt easily loses every single game to any coach that’s good. After seeing a good bit of Auburn-Mississippi State, Richt will lose again this year to both of those teams Tenessee in Knoxville has “a Mark Richt lose’ written all over it. Doesn’t matter how good or bad Will Muschamp is, Richt is a chronic loser each time against Florida.

Tech-Georgia has evolved into a “who cares” game. Personally I’d tather UGA beat Florida. Its a tossup who’s worse, Richt or Paul Johnson.

Paul Johnson said today that he finds it hard enough playing against the ACC as it is. He stated today too that he would prefer to play 4 division II teams or 1-AA FCS teams.

Of course, Mark Richt loses to more than 1 team every season who is not ranked in the final AP Poll, even after they beat him.

So, too, does Paul Johnson.

The difference is Mark Richt is the head coach of the # 11 all-time win program, the flagship school in the state which therefore hands Mark Richt the players that would not even consider going to Georgia tek, to not even be on TV, to be on back-to-back NCAA PROBATION in football, to have 92,746 fans – not half that number after Georgia tek blew-up half their stadium so tired they were of their half-empty stadium – only to see their engineer unable to count the remaining number of seats correctly, to not have the 2nd most money of any football program in America to only Texas, to have 45 in the NFL from the benefit of all this; and, to have fans actually able to determine that 2002 there only was 1 other SEC team ranked at all in the final Coaches’ Poll Top 25 in 2002 and they only Auburn a 4-loss team who beat Alabama too but still a 4-Loss team ending up ranked therefore # 14 in the Coaches’ Poll 2002; fans actually able to determine that Mark Richt ended the season # 3 in The SEC in the AP Poll 2005 with losses to Auburn # 14 and to Florida # 12; and that in 2007 Mark Richt lost to 6-6 South Carolina not even in a bowl game and to the hapless vols 2007 too when the vols lost to such wondrous teams 2007 as California a 7-6 team and the vols 2007 lost to Alabama in a blow-out of the vols another 7-6 team 2007 this vols team a 4-loss team 2007.

I submit that this is more of a tragedy to UGA than the # 49 football team Georgia tek is under Paul Johnson.

“Its a tossup who’s worse, Richt or Paul Johnson.”

No, Mark Richt is the one who has done a worse job because to he whom much is given, much is expected.

No one expects Paul Johnson to do squat. So, they get what they expected.

Tough loss in a hard fought game. Too many mistakes but the biggest one was the Deon Sanders imitation by Boykin on the fake punt. I’d bench his butt for the rest of the season. You can’t allow that type of wimpy play from anyone, much less a starter. What a wuss!!!

I’d be willing to give Richt another year to bring this “young” team together if he would do two things.
1. Fire Bobo and open the Check book and bring in a real proven OC with New ideas and the ability to call a game as to what the D is giving you.
2. Open up the QB position. The ole line of ” playing the guy that gives us the best chance to win” needs to go out the window. His record speaks, although not all his fault, and looks good at times.

The outcome was not surprise, but Bobo should not receive any criticism for his offensive scheme. UGA hung 42 on the Ole Ball Coach, and that means there is nothing wrong with the offense. Even against Boise, UGA hung 21 on the Broncos.

Therefore, the problem is not CMR or Bobo, your problem is Defense….more importantly Grantham. CMR made a desperate move in replacing Martinez, whom should have been replaced years ago, but once the booster pressure became unbearble, he swung for the fences and struck out with Grantham.

There is just not enough emphasis on defense, but there shold be. Dooley is not really that good, Erk Russell was. CMR is an offensive genius, he just needs someone who can run a proper defense, like Brian Van Gorder.

The troubles with this problem are deeper than CMR, or Bobo. The problem with this program is Dooley and a team that has not learned how to respect their opponents. The taunting and all the pre-game energy is spent, thus this team is gassed by half-time. Opponents come in and quietly get the job done and leave….such as yesterday.

Unfortunately the only way Kirby Smart or any other top-talented DC comng to Athens is in the form of a head coach. UGA should have upped the anty when Van Gorder left for Jax, but apparently no one in Athens understood the critical component of a defensive coordinator.

I like CMR, and if you fire him, he is going to be successful somewhere, which will only prove that the UGA is broken, and has deeper issues other than coaching. CMR could leave this program in a heartbeat, and be back in the Garnet and Gold in 2 seconds. He could also be back in Miami running that offense also……so you might want to think long and hard before pulling the trigger. What CMR needs is a better mentor than Dooley, because no one would have ever heard of Dooley if not for his recruiters and Herschel Walker.

I really don’t know where to start with that, sir. I think, maybe the start of it has to be that Mike Bobo is not the panacea to our issues. We have given an entire recruiting class full of scholarships to guys who none of them have ever seen the field on offense or on defense; and continue to play Favorites, such as your next point about I guess Christian LeMay – why save him ? Mark Richt will not be here for him, if he does because, as you say, this is the game number 9 now that Aaron Murray has been beat out at his position head-to-head on the field by the opposing QB. 7 of them end the season ranked and 2 did not, but all 9 were better than he head-to-head for all to see and he lost all 9 as a direct result thereof. We have nobody on punt returns, for example, playing in the game. Zombie team, one guy just called them aptly, for example. Boykin now is the answer at RB, when I said that four (4) years ago. Didn’t I repeatedly, and every day since to say I told you so about last week. He whiffed like Garo Yepremian on his pass in Super Bowl VII after being sent back there to return the punt and whiffing on the tackle. Aaron Murray tweeted just prior to kick-off last week that he was “leaving to go whoop some a**” on his international Twitter WebPages. It sits there still this morning, if you don’t know how to use that technology, I can provide it. Of course, Brandon Boykin missed the interception this week, and got most of the press last week for his tweet to the Bear Bryant top college coach award winner, twice. 26 players have been removed from our roster in the last year, hailed around here as “addition by subtraction.” We tried to hide 2 suspensions to last week’s game. Who knows who was suspended for this game ? We wait to put Malcolm Mitchell in until the 2nd half and start out like molasses every game. Our players call their own number so many times in a game, they can’t even figure out that they need to go to the sideline and get a back-up QB ready to play, so they get the # 1 RB in the nation nearly injured himself on a botched hand-off of his, one of his 3 fumbles in the game, and someone tried to blame that on Isaiah Crowell. No, that’s on the QB, like the one at his feet he did fall on and like the 1 that cost him the game on what will always be known as the rag doll play. We have no completion to any TE last night; I presume that was some wrinkle of a game plan strategy to fool them. The only position on the team we have so many at that all might make it in the NFL; and we complete not 1 pass to them all night in a game featuring 87 points. We recruit for 6 consecutive recruiting classes 0 fullbacks, yet there are 200 every year, including great ones in the state of Georgia; now, next season we have a FB commitment. Our problems are so pervasive that all of us to an injustice to just how badly organized we are as a football program anymore. I feel that we can rattle off 10 more wins including another nobody bowl opponent as per always with the lone loss to Alabama or LSU in The SEC Championship; and that is not based upon fantasy in my mind, but on the fact that 11-3 means we beat no one this season.

Firing Bobo and opening up QB isn’t going to fix much

There are many converts.

Once we zero in on this 3 wins 10 losses to teams who finished in the AP Poll Top 10 all 11 years, we can just summarize we don’t beat the top teams in our best seasons (2001 # 4 vols-ended the season # 5 team in SEC in AP Poll & lost 4 games) (2005 # 6 LSU-ended the season the # 3 team in SEC in AP Poll & lost 3 games) (2006 # 9 Auburn-ended the season the # 5 team in SEC in AP Poll & lost 4 games.)

Our best seasons were 2002 and 2007, where we beat no one that entire season, either one, who ended the season in the AP Poll Top 10.

Taken into consideration that we have LOST 16 games to teams who would not have finished in the AP Poll Top 25 even, 10 of whom did not even with their win over Mark Richt, what we have is that :

-we don’t beat the top teams
-we lose to cruddy teams, too

To many homers posting about the need to let Mark Richt go. One losing season thus far, ONE. Dooley and Bryant had TWO plus many VERY mediocre seasons (e.g.: 6-5 etc). You guys must not realize that it would be better for the team if we kept Richt and were able to improve and get better. We lose Richt and crew, we lose recruiting connections, trust amongst players and much more. Mark Richt has done and is doing the right things to make this team the best it can be this year. We will win the rest of our games, and if we make the SEC Champ, we could win that too. If you aren’t for the GEORGIA BULLDOGS and Mark Richt, you are against them. And no, you can’t be a Dawg fan and not support Mark Richt because otherwise you are railing against the players that love and support their coach and make this great Georgia Tradition possible.

@ UCF Dawg: What difference does it make, who the better team is? If Georgia, is in fact the better team, it highlights why Mark Richt needs to go. It is not just one game. It is a culmination of game philosophy. It is a culmination of failures in recruiting. We can point to practically every skill position and show that Mark Richt does not have the pulse of the state’s top players. The top players in Georgia are now going elsewhere. There is an exodus of talent from this state which highlight Mark Richt’s incompotence.

“Haters?” What I hate is bad coaching and a head football coach who will not run the football. What I hate even more is the fact that Mark Richt continues to lose practically every top skill player in the state to bottom-feeding programs. Richt recruits marginal out-of-state players and does not get it done with Georgia kids. Aaron Murray should have been holding a clip board for Cam Newton. He is a self-admitted Dawg fan from Atlanta. Orson Charles should be somewhere in Florida running bad routes while Lutzenkirchen (Marietta’s Lassiter HS) is pulling in his NCAA leading TDs among TEs. I have no idea why Wooten is the #2 WR with all of the talent in this state. Look at the top players in Georgia. There is an exodus of top players from the Peach State.

He is smart enough to feed Marcus Lattimore. Not Mark Richt. This guy, instead, puts our program in the hands of a 6′0″ quarterback who has no ability to make check downs. Murray sees a blitz and then runs play actions fakes. It is sickening, if you have ever played real football.

Some thoughts. I’m interested if others agree or disagree:

1. Great, even Spurrier admitted we outplayed him Moral victories don’t count when you are an established program. Let UT who is rebuilding have moral victories.

2. These turnovers remind me of the 2009 team.

3. I like the poise, maturity and toughness of Crowell. He played hurt (ribs) and admitted the fumble which set up a TD was his fault, then came out with confidence and played his tail off. This kid was worth the hype and worth teliing those morons Ealey and King to go find a real job.

4. Now Christian Robinson is hurt. Grantham, you much adjust your scheme to fit your talent. Run a modified version of your base defense with Jarvis Jones up on the line in a 3 point stance outside the weak side OT with his ears pinned back a la Marcus Howard a few years back so we get SOME pressure on the QB on a consistent basis. In other words, turn him from a LB to rush end. If you want to run a zone blitz (do we do that?) he is athletic enough to change up and cover a back coming out in the flat. Use both Geathers and Jenkins at DT on 1st and 2nd down. Tyson plays a traditional DE on strong side. That will free up your thin LB core. If Robinson is out, you have no experienced inside LB’s right now. Use your best three athletes at the position, period.

5. Murray and Crowell were “beat up.” Once upon a time teams did want to face us because they felt beat up for an entire week. How things have changed.

6. I’m sorry but you always have to be on lookout for the fake kick or punt when a team is near midfield. Football 101. Only time you can let your guard down is when they are deep in their own territory. That one is on the special teams coach.

7. Our OL played better this week but we still need better pass protection. Until we get that, BOBO, stop calling plays that take time to develop. Quick passes. How many times was Orson Charles targeted. Twice? Were they covering him up in their man coverage that bad? That said, good use of Crowell coming out of the backfield. Kid ain’t Moreno but he is good in the open field.

8. CMR waited too long to call that time out after they got the ball on the onside kick. As soon as they ran that first play he should have called TO. Bad clock management. Again. Probably all moot since Lattimore got the 1st down anyway, but we do not use timeouts well.

9. We are so thin at OL and LB I hope we are not red-shirting anyone. All hands on deck.

10. Silver lining: the kids played with great intensity. CMR had them mentally prepared this week.
And South Carolina will not run the table. We are still in this thing. However…

11. Reality: We should have won 42 – 17. OL still needs improvement. I didn’t hear a single LB’s number get called on a play except Robinson and Jones. We are getting blocked too easily. Grantham, see # 4 above.

Thank you all for your time. Go Dawgs.

Just remember 1-9 against top 25 teams is still 1-9. What does it take losing to Vandy.. We are Georgia not those band of insects at the Technical College in Atlanta. Have some pride, it is time for a change!!!!!

Lattimore just chewed our defense up with that zone read run and with the quick pitch. I would have had 9 in the box everytime and would have blitzed to their strong side on the quick pitch formations. They had to know Lattimore was going to get the ball. We allowed him 180 yards. Our defense sucks. USC’s offense could not sustain anything in the 1st – 3rd quarters because we kept allowing them big plays, thus their offense did not have much time on the field. I have always supported CMR, but I am done with him and his regime. I would love to get a Peterson in here or a Derrick Dooley. You watch what I tell you. The VOLS are going to be good, and it will be because of their new coach.

First of all I do not think Georgia will go undefeated the rest of the way, but if for some reason we can pull that off, then no South Carolina does not have to lose more than one game. It would be possible for South Carolina to lose to Florida and for Georgia to beat Florida. Which would mean they could possibly end up in a three way tie, but either Florida or South Carolina would probably end up ranked higher and still go to the SECCG, unless both teams really struggled and Georgia comes on like gang busters and blows out several teams. Don’t see any of this happening but not outside the realm of possibility. As for the Coaching situation this seasons schedule will handle that one way or another. And we might as well support the team and let McGarity handle that situation. I will assure at the end of the season the AD will make the decision he alone is getting paid to make. No sense in obsessing over it.

Auburn’s 2-0 with a young team because they believe in their HC and themselves. I’m not drinking any of the “we’re getting better” koolaid. UGA dominated the game and should have won it. With dicipline, belief in themselves, and coaching, they would have won it. UGA looked like a bunch of good players begging for leadership. There is none in Athens.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Best post here so far. Nailed it.

Everyone keeps saying “if we didn’t make mistakes” we would have won…well ladies and gents…good coaching can help that problem. Coaching if done correctly can correct Crowell’s fumble, Murray’s INT (into double coverage), or his fumble (someone teach MURRAY To get the FRAK down and take a SACK instead) or to watch out for the FAKE PUNT near midfield (more COACHING).

There I said it…people say the Players lost the game…but those mistakes can be overcome via COACHING (and discipline in practices, proper fundamental discipline).

It’s beyond frustrating being a UGA fan right now. New leadership is needed in Athens…how much longer is this mess going to continue???

Excuses are for LOSERS! Maybe if the players spent less time trying to talk smack and more time on letting their actions do the talking the close ones would swing our way. You don’t see the really good teams act like smack talking idiots. Didn’t see it from the visitors. CMR is a hypocrite if he puts up with that. Go back and look at Jones, Boykin and some others. Undisciplined in my opinion.

I like all the positive comments I’ve seen from REAL Dawg fans. The rest are either not real Dawg fans or trollers. No one that watched that game can say that our kids didn’t outplay USC on both sides of the ball and didn’t see good play calling. The things that we griped about the week before were corrected. This looks like a great team in the making. If not for the mistakes they could have easily put 50 points on South Carolina and limited them to 17. I was not impressed at all with South Carolina and think they could easily lose 2 games in the SEC this year so it is not over.

Simple reality……

Georgia is currently not better than Boise State (4th ranked) and South Carolina (12 ranked). I did not see the game, but it sounds like to me that Georgia played their hearts out against a higher ranked team and barely lost (I expected Georgia to pull the upset at home….or at least wished for it because the Gators needed Georgia to win that game).

Facts:
1. Georgia has top 25 talent and probably will end up in the top 25 this year.
2. Florida is a lot better than everyone thought they would be….but they still have not played anyone yet to really prove it.
3. Florida will get a chance to prove it this coming Saturday against a very good Tennessee team.
4. Georgia will not have to play one of the top 12 teams in the country next week…..and they better win the game next week.

I believe this:

A mark of an excellent head coach is if several of his assistants go on to become head coaches or lead assistant elsewhere. With Richt……I believe Calloway at Alabama Birmingham is the only former assistant that has become a head coach after leaving Georgia. Meyer placed many in HC postions. Even Zook did. I think Richt’s biggest problem is not his leadership of players as the Georgia HC, but his poor decisions in hiring assistant head coaches…..including the current DC…who seems to be in over his head and not nearly as good as the one fired recently by Richt…..Mr. Martinez.

as far as Tim DeRuyter being selected as DC, the same could be said of Manny Diaz, who went from MTSU to Miss. St., and now on to Texas. None of that matters if the offense continues to put more pressure on the defense to perform like a college version of the Steeler’s.

The problem is not with Richt but with the NFL allowing Juniors into the draft. Boise had several 5th year seniors and many more regular senior and junior starters then the Dawgs. They are young because the quality players smell the money at the end of their 2nd year and you can’t blame them.

I see a loss to Miss St. If the defense, and the team to a certain extent, played better, then how did we allow 45 points? Key stat: Lattimore had 176 yards rushing. If Relf would have pitched the ball to his RB yesterday, Miss. St. would have won that game. If the defense is still a little hazy now, trouble is brewing against Dan Mullen. It’s not a good bet we will win in Tennessee either, because those players seem to be executing according to plan(gee, wonder why) and it’s in Knoxville. That leaves Florida. Forget about it. We will beat Ole Miss, Vandy, Kentucky, and surprise Auburn (cause bad defense will catch up to you at some point). On second thought, we might beat Florida. Why?

GT GRAD — I am not sure what your point is. SEC teams are overrated? UGA isn’t ranked. And you are comparing apples to oranges when you take USC’s performance against UGA compared to UGA’s performance against Boise. As much as UGA would like to believe they were ready to play in Atlanta, a big factor in that game was that we are not rivals. Playing in the SEC week after week creates a “hate factor” that can’t be defined on a quantative scale. That is why the SEC is the toughest conference. Week after week, there are few teams that face as many hated opponents as UGA does, or UF, or USC, or Alabama, or Auburn…. I know that other teams think that idea is a bunch of doo doo but the fact remains, 5 National Championships in a row. The 3-4 elitists are just that. And it’s hard as hell to get there.

Thomas Brown (aka BuLLDAWG) — Sometimes I wish you’d just go ahead and give up on the Dawgs. Your negativity does nothing to help our school. If you have some real influence, why don’t you get on the phone. Otherwise, pipe down (that is unless you have something positive to say).

beanster,

I gave up on Mark Richt. Does that make you happy ?

That is obvious. But when you rip coach Richt, you rip the Dawgs too. They read this crap, trust me. Not all of it, but some. And if you weren’t impressed by the effort they gave, well, I don’t’ know what to tell you. That bunch has heart. They gave it everything they have. We are not perfect. We are doing the best we can with what we have. CMR has done well in the past. He deserves more than the crap you throw at him. He knows his back is against the wall. Let this season play out and then start the bashing. Until then, BE A FAN OF THE GEORGIA BULLDAWGS AND STOP BEING SO G.D. NEGATIVE!!!!!!!!!

Do you know what it means to be part of a team, to face challenges as a team? Do you know how hard that is?

beanster,

I disagree. I graduated from UGA. Tell me where you are a better Bulldog fan than I and I will tell you you have no idea what you are talking about, a walk-on myself at UGA. I can rip Mark Richt because I am dissatisfied with 21 losses the last 5 years; unimpressed by 3 wins in 13 games vs teams who finished in the AP Poll Top 10 all 11 years; and ashamed of 16 losses to the likes of teams who would not have finished in the AP Poll Top 25 even with their win over us, and 10 of those 16 losses to cruddy teams in 11 years to-date did not even finish in the AP Poll Top 25 even with their win over Mark Richt.

There is no moral victory for you beanster in a game so sloppy to start the game that 3 times we take the ball down the field to start the game and all 3 drives ended on pass-happy Aaron Murray failing to check down and threw instead just horrid passes. One, we had a guy open at the 16-yard line and he threw the football to the 8. Another, the guy was wide open. He stood in the pocked and waited and waited and waited. I kept saying throw the football. When he finally did, the coverage caught up. He should have thrown the football on the cut.

Sounds to me like in your last sentence that you AGREE with me that at the end of the season, he is gone. So, then, what we have is that YOU can say that : FIRE HIM AT THE END OF THE SEASON. But, I cannot.

Shall I do as you SAY ? And, not as you DO ?

“I saw a team last night could have won the game if this same team hadn’t gotten in its own way! Way too many mistakes to win a close football game like this. The fake punt for a touchdown was the turning point in my opinion. We were poised to stab the dagger in their hearts until then. The Dawgs actually played like they wanted to win; which was totally different from what I saw last week.”

Then, why don’t we ever play our best players on the special teams ? Never in 11 years have we done that. Did you notice who THEY use on THEIR special teams ? That was their Starting DL who took the snap and out-ran our 3rd team players who is all we use on special teams, except of course, Brandon Boykin who pulled his Super Bowl VII Garo Yepremian type pass on special teams with his whiff on the tackle. “The fake punt for a touchdown was the turning point in my opinion.” I, of course, believe that the game was lost after the interception pick 6, on Aaron Murray’s 3rd fumble of the game being thrown down like a RAG DOLL to put South Carolina ahead by 2 scores, when everyone else left the stadium.

No, sir. I was watching the game here on my couch in Athens.With a newborn, I opted not to buy season tix this year. Since you walked on at UGA, surely you must know someone in the Athletic Dept where your complaints might not fall on deaf ears. Do you really think that McGarity would fire CMR mid season? (uh, no) So that said, why not let the season play out and see what happens. This team is eerily familiar to the ‘01 squad. Remember that? When Dawg fans were used to losing all the time? And then came the hobnail boot and things as we knew them drastically changed.

Are you a parent? If so, I feel sorry for your kid(s). I just can’t see how you think your endless b*tching and complaining will change anything, except for adding to the discouragement that our players feel like our fan base gives them. As I said before, if you know somebody that has some influence, then do something about it. If not, then shut up, watch the games this year, and when it is all said and done, give us your grand assessment on the state of affairs in Athens and how you could do things so much better. My guess is that just like now, no one will want to hear what you have to say.

Mark Richt is not a championship head coach. Do we want to win championships? Fire Richt, offer Saban 7million a year and watch what happens when a real coach lands in Athens. Wuss bags never finish first in the SEC. We have a wuss bag for a head coach. Who else would have Bozo calling plays? enough said. and fire that Todd Grantham before the Florida game please. what a great hire that was….. holy moly.

Hey, Jim Moron. Your name fits you perfectly!! We saw a great team make one too many mistakes. Your Moron mouth will close when the Dawgs win the SEC East this year. And to the Moron with the comment abour Richt’s faith who didn’t have the courage to put “her” name, Richt wouldn’t even stoop to your level, which I believe is somewhere in a very warm place!!!

Hey Murray……thanks oncxe again to your gift of 14 points we lose. I am sick and tired of your talk…time to shut up and get the job done. You talk and prepare a great game…bottom line- you have yet to prove it on the field. Again, out of 14 games- you have yet to beat a winning team……Maybe the coach needs to open the QB position up

Maybe all those who want Richt gone should apply for the job!

UGA is starting to sound like the Braves did in the late 1990’s

We outplayed them but.

We did some good things but

We had just one bad play

Excuses excuses excuses

Focus on what Spurrier said and you will get down to the bottom line

“They outplayed us”

When a team can outplay the opponent but then still make that one critical mistake that snatches defeat from the jaws of victory – that’s a sign that the leadership needs to change

8-4 would be a miracle
7-5 or 6-6 is more likely

Lose to Tech or have a really bad loss, say to a Kentucky, Vandy, or Miss, and Richt can kiss his job goodbye
