King Tony is a techster who is just plain tired of losing to Georgia. He desperately tries to find what he thinks is a kink in Georgia’s armor to help him feel like Tech will have some kind of a chance to beat Georgia this year. But, soon enough he’ll find out that Georgia is going to win again this year. I don’t even pay attention to his posts anymore.

Sure you do, or you wouldn’t still be posting about it. Admit it, he gets under your skin bigtime. And that’s funny!

Alabama is on the schedule next year, in Tuscaloosa. A couple of new opponents, opening with Buffalo and game 3 against Florida Atlantic. Some rumors that Mike Leach get that HC job.

Sun Devil Dave you’ll never get UGa out of the state to play a non-conference game again…McGarrity uses the Florida method of scheduling, so get used to LA+Monroe and Georgia Southern…they’ll never make that Boise mistake again…it’s good for national respect to play a strong OOC schedule; UGa’s problem is that they suck at it and lose most of those games,,,truth be told, bet there are a ton of BCS conference schools wanting a home and home…Oregon wanted to plant a foot in UGa this season, but UGa let LSU take care of their business, thinking they could handle Boise instead…well we beat them in 2005!!! was the chant around here…Boise hung it in them…Stuart Mandel calls it the Ole Miss Syndrome…applies to schools that have an artificially inflated view of their actual influence in the sport…Ole Miss, TAMU, up until recently Clemson all suffer from the syndrome…Georgia has it bad, real bad…

no, not at all…why are all you UGa fans so obsessed with Tech?? Think Bama worries about what UAB says about them? LSU is concerned what Tulane thinks? I’ve lived in 6 states and worked internationally for years and I can honestly say I have never run across a more delusional group of fans like UGa fans…you guys make Ohio State fans sound rational…

Dawg48 and Terry…let me ask you guys this….what is your feeling regarding the coaching situation in Athens? Seriously, what gets me going on these UGa blogs is the stubborn fan(s) who fail to realize that the program is being cheated by the current staff. (my opinion)do you agree, or do you expect more…I understand some are ok with 8-4, 9-3 and a decent bowl game, if that is your stance, fine…but, talent and/or scholarships are being wasted in Athens (my opinion)…so, what do ya’ll think…looking for conversation, sorry I come across as a smart aleck; just something i”m good at (opinion, haha)…

@ living on earth.
I like coach richt. I think he is a good coach all programs go threw up and downs, our defensive staff is showing great strides. The team that i see is improving every game and they want to win and it’s a team first mentality. Richt is changing the way things are done cause you have seen players leave some known for bad attitudes but not all of them, things do not change over night but things are changing for the better. Uga is not at the level of a bama or lsu right now but not many teams are but I think coach richt will change things around and get back to winning.

I am glad that we now know that Any team( LSU and Alabama) are required to get permission from UGA before they can be good unless it is UGA’s turn. This according to ” SEC fan”. The last time anyone checked there have been 5 straight BCS winners from the SEC and they all must have been on the rotation system and recieved that phone call from UGA to win the title. What happened 7 years ago or so when UGA won the SEC and they were not in the BCS title game? Did the other conferences not get the memo and win too many games to keep UGA out of the title game?
The next time UGA is primed to play for a national title, please try very hard not to get blown out by Tennessee.

Many teams would have easily gone 10-2 with Georgia’s 2011 schedule. Unfortunately, Georgia isn’t one of them.

King Tony must be a tech fan! What has tech done other than struggle with unranked teams as well! Ga was beat by a very respectful Boise State! We gave SC the second game and have been rolling ever since! Tech hasn’t play a worthy team yet except for maybe UNC and half of their players were either kick off the team or suspend! Look if you don’t like UGA then that is fine! GO TO THE GA TECH SITE!!!!!! Go Dawgs!

I realy don’t believe the Dogs will win the East, After watching this team for the last several seasons I just don’t have confidence in this program, The defense has certainly improved, The offense still lacks something that is hard to put into words, lack of Confidence maybe or as some insist the problem lies with Mike Bobo’s play calling, What ever the problem, I don’t think it is a lack of talent, Richt has recruited enough 4 and 5 star players, Almost as many as Ala or LSU, But they are a long way from playing on the same level as those teams, I think the Fla game will tell us a lot about this team and Richts’ future, A loss to Fla will be devastating to this program.

If UGA is up for the game, UGA wins easily. Why? Vandy cant score on our defense and our offense is much better then their offense. No turnovers and UGA should win 24-9. Go Dawgs!

No. 4 Carver used a huge game from tailback Marquez Holloway and a rugged defense to knock off Callaway, 28-14, Thursday night in a matchup of the region’s last two unbeaten teams.
Holloway finished with 296 yards on 21 carries, while the Tigers’ defense limited the Cavaliers to only 23 yards of total offense.
Some people said Holloway might be as good as Crowell….interesting to see where he ends up in college….

All this talk about UGA winning the East and being “back” will come to an end just as soon as UGA loses their next game. It won’t be this week against Vandy, but UGA will lose to either Auburn or Florida or both.
It happens every year. UGA fans get all excited about “this year’s team.” Then they want to slit their wrists after a couple of loses…then they get punch drunk on Kool-Aid after a few nothing wins, then lose another game or two and it starts all over until spring practice.
Same story…2011 edition.

“I think the Fla game will tell us a lot about this team and Richts’ future, A loss to Fla will be devastating to this program.”
Why would you say that. They lose to Florida every year. If you want to know about Mark Richt’s future, you should ask Mark Richt. He’ll quit this gravy train job when he gets good and ready. Georgia is afraid to fire him, because they don’t believe a good coach would accept the job. They may be right…

UGA is more ikely to lose to Vandy than win the East. Vandy coach is fired up, Vandy is undefeated at home, UGA is over confident, CMR will certainly get out coached this game (and Fla and Auburn). Better be careful, doggies!

Murry is incapable of putting the team on his back with 2 minutes to go and driving the length of the field for the win. He is not a big time sec quarterback. CMR threw that guy off the team last year.

“Favorite to win east”
It’s amazing what we have come to accept. I do hope we win the east and some how beat LSU or Bama but I still have feel like based off the last couple years……..Murry will do something to cost us the game against Fla or AU…….he just can’t beat teams in the sec with winning records……really hope he proves me wrong…..folks if we can’t beat Fl this year then we need a new head coach!

We need 110% from everyone every game cause we are not good enough yet to count our wins before we win them. DEFENSE keeps us in this one, I just hope the offense will score more than freaking field goals
