St. Clarkston…….
Sorry…….Gators fans have already forgiven him for his “traitorous actions”……him playing for Georgia. And the Gators don’t need luck. They have outstanding players and great coaches….including that traitor!
GT Joe…….
but Georgia is hot on Tech’s 59 poll point heels….with their 7 poll points…..but Florida International is on Georgia’s heels with their 4 poll points.

Seriously…….
I am not sure why Georgia has more poll points than Florida International. Georgia has a 1-2 record and FIU has a 3-0 record. Geogia lost to UCF 10-7 when they recently played them. FIU beat UCF 17-10 Saturday……and also beat Louisville up there. Much more impressive than losing 2 and beating Coastal Carolina……don’t you think?

Florida International should send a letter of intent to enter letter to the ACC to compete with Miami in South Florida. UCF should replace Pitt or Syracuse in the Big East…..to compete with USF in central Florida. FSU should join the SEC…..so Florida can have a meaningful in conference rivalry again.

We may very well beat Ole Miss but Miss State, Auburn, Florida are another story.
Folks, beating bad teams does not mean we have a good team.
It means we have an average (or less) team.
UF will absolutely destroy our Dawgs.
Auburn will open up with both cannons against The Dawgs and win.
GT may beat us if they can get things together – I believe they are more capable of doing this than we are from a coaching standpoint.
We may be able to beat UT but (like Ole Miss) if we screw it up we will lose.
The worst that could happen in my opinion is Richt winning just enough for him to return next season. If that happens then McGarity and Adams are to blame to the ENTIRE MESS that will occur next year.

Well, once again the CMR/CMB haters come out…even after a win. Yes, the whole Dawg Nation knows it was just Coastal Carolina…and that going in it was an automatic win, etc. But, 1. we blanked em. 2. we played the second string pretty early 3. we played the 4th string pretty early. 4. they looked prepared/ready to play from the get-go…eg no 1st possession times outs, false starts, etc
Some of y’all are mistaking the pundits descriptions for Dawg fans’ feelings. That’s Chip Towers’ “kook aid”, not ours. We know who we just beat. But it’s still a win…especially after the S.C. game and even the Evil Genius admitting we beat them. I guess in some ways, yes, “…it’s what the doctor ordered…” But Dawg Nation isn’t necessarily thumping our collective chests in the end zone. We’re just happy for the team and the win…nothing more and nothing less. If you want to keep on being negative and only find the negatives even in a win, please get another team for which to be a “fan”.
Chip, I’m not picking on you; you’re just trying to being positive, I reckon. Thanks for the video…we need more!
Now it’s time to get ready for Ole Miss. Goooo Dawgs!

“FLA DAWG” …
“….UF will absolutely destroy our Dawgs.

Soooo, you’re writing from your yacht…the yacht that was paid for from all your winnings from knowing such things? Or from your penthouse in Vegas? It must be nice to know with such absolute certainty which games we’ll win and lose.
You like coaches that rant and rave and lose their cool on the sidelines huh? Well, many fans and players don’t. Remaining cool under fire and adversity is considered a virtue in some circles. There’s not much coaching nor learning going when confronted with a seeming maniac. I think you’ve had limited views of CMR during games. CMR has many times shown “fire”…rushed on the field, yelled at officials, jumped up and down, shown enthusiasm…etc etc. But, I’ve never seen him lose his cool, like some coaches do. There’s something to be said for someone who can remain calm when all else around them is chaos.
I’m not predicting we’ll run the table. But, why not? It’s possible. Last year don’t mean squat right now. That was then, this is now.

SECOND TIER DIVISION ONE SCHOOL…. NOT DRINKING THE KOOL AID YET….. BEAT SOMEONE IMPRESSIVE…. THEN MAYBE…..THE CURRENT RECORD SPEAKS FOR ITSELF
Good win Dawgs! But what does it really mean? Does it mean we are a contender in the SEC? Probably not. Does it mean we can contend with second tier divison one teams? Probably. Is this where the Dawg Nation wants to be? Probably not. Should we expect more out of the Georgia football program? Yes. Why? 1- one of the top football facilities in the country, 2- great booster and fan contributions and support, 3- great recruiting classes …. just to name a few. The facts speak for themselves, we are trending down, we are not feared in the SEC, we are known as a team which cant finish. LOOK AT THE FACTS…… they cant be disputed….
1-GEORGIA is a combined 0-5 against Top 25 teams in 2010 and 2011
2- GEORGIA has lost 10 of its last 12 against ranked teams. (2-10 record)
3- GEORGIA is now 15-14 in his last 29 games
4-GEORGIA is 6-10 in the past 16 SEC games.
5- GEORGIA is 3-5 in their last 8 games going back to last season
6- GEORGIA has won 1 of it last 4. (and it wasnt a powerhouse we beat today)
LETS SEE WHAT NEXT WEEK BRINGS WITH MISSISSIPPI

bugsquacher….That’s what we need, a nice, positive LOOK AT THE FACTS. It’s like those announcers saying, “…it’s their first win in nine months..” Heck, we hadn’t played in over eight months. But it’s good to see such a positive attitude.
