Richt: ‘I’d say we were not soft’ (plus other postgame quotes)
WHAT THEY SAID AFTER GEORGIA’S VICTORY OVER FLORIDA
“I’d say we were not soft. The defense rose to the occasion, and everyone fought their tails off. There was a lot of emotion and two really good football teams getting after it.”
– Georgia coach Mark Richt
“I’ve said all season long — we’re not a team that has a lot of margin of error. Obviously, six (Florida) turnovers led to 10 (Georgia) points, critical plays in the game. … You’ve got to give (Georgia) credit. You’ve got to rise up to those opportunities you have, and you have to make those plays. They did and we didn’t, but six turnovers — wow. That’s tough to overcome.”
– Florida coach Will Muschamp
“What can this guy not do? He gets sacks, forces interceptions, forces fumbles.”
– Georgia safety Bacarri Rambo on linebacker Jarvis Jones’ huge game
“Jarvis is a great player. To come back from an ankle sprain the way he did … and come out here and do what he did, I’d pick him No. 1 in the draft.”
– Georgia wide receiver Malcolm Mitchell
“I had a great game, but it’s about what we did as a defense. All of us did what we came here to do. We beat the No. 2 team in the nation, and it’s a great feeling.”
– Jones
“We knew we had the guys to make plays; we just hadn’t been making them. And I think the challenge from the media and the challenge from (safety) Shawn Williams, I think that opened some guys up. Everybody went out and played hard.”
– Cornerback Damian Swann on how the UGA defense responded to Williams’ early-week comments that the unit had been playing soft
“We prepared hard this whole week. I’ve never seen these guys practice like this before. … Everybody thought we were soft. They had more people carted off the field than we did.”
– Rambo
“The fans were really propelling us that whole game. They were loud, getting us pumped up.”
– Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray
“Oh, man, were there really that many?”
– Murray, when told there were nine turnovers in the game (three by Georgia and six by Florida)
“It was a rough game. That was an SEC defensive matchup right there. Offensively, we had our shots at points, but we were just making mistakes when it comes to turnovers, penalties, stuff that we need to correct.”
– Murray
“We hadn’t had a lot of turnovers this year (four before Saturday), so it’s just kind of a shock to everybody.”
– Florida defensive back Jaylen Watkins
“He ran it 27 times and didn’t fumble it, which is huge.”
– Richt on freshman tailback Todd Gurley, who had 118 yards rushing
“We’re right where we want to be.”
– Gurley on the Bulldogs being in position to win the SEC East if they defeat Ole Miss and Auburn
“It was awesome. Everyone was going crazy. I feel like we were out there for 20 or 30 minutes. There isn’t a better feeling.”
– Richt on the postgame celebration on the field

The biggest thing i seen different today was the d-lines push. They pushed their o-line back into the qb and anytime you do that the backers can do their thing making db job easier to.Looks like the Aburn coaches will be without a job. Two great games in a row for Jordan Jenkins the true freshman. He’s the man next year.

Ole Lady Luck fell on our side tonight. With that many turnovers and penalties, the game could have gone either way. The Gators and Dawgs both played an emotional game with lots of mistakes. We were lucky to come out with the win. Like I said in 1980, “Run Malcolm!! (just like Lindsey). There will be a lot pf property destroyed tonight!” Go Dawgs!!

Great quote! There were lizards littering the carpet all night.
Not to make light of injuries, you always hope that they’re not serious but Marcus Lattimore’s injury was. Say a prayer for that young man if you believe in it, heck of a good kid and outstanding player.

Way to go dawgs great win but you need to thank the defense for this game . Why is it that Murray can not play to his patential when the dawgs play in Jacksonville ? seems like he chokes when they play Fla. and to thoses that may have seen the tenn. s.c. game prayers go out to M. Lattamore. I know its south carolina but this is a great running back and good person. he was hurt in the 2nd quarter and was hit and it looked as if he had a broken leg. He was wheeled off. the field and sent to the hospital . and it was great to see the tenn. and s.carolina players meet in the middle of the field and surround lattimore. gret sportsmenship.

If we get on a roll, we could be a very dangerous team. But if we go out and play lackluster games, we might get beat. Mississippi is a good football team and they have nothing to lose. And Auburn has been terrible, but they would want nothing more than to play one great game to spoil our season.
Not to mention that we have 4 more games in the regular season.
We need to keep players focused on these games, and we also need to hope we keep guys healthy.
All the goals are in front of the Dawgs. It starts with Ole Miss. If we play defense like we did today the rest of the season, it’s gonna be fun.

Kudos to the fans who saw this game for what it was, a stroke of genuine luck, Cleveland Dawg you had it right, JasonFm is a big part of our problem. Now the entire UGA nation think they are the mightiest thing going. The ONLY thing this win accomplished was to shut up the on the fence fans, give the team the BIG head (i.e. wait til next week), and insured that the idiot we have as a head coach remains there forever. I’m glad everyone is happy to accept this mediocre team and even worse coaching staff. If Florida had not turned the ball over 6 times we would have lost a game to probably the worst Florida team that has ever took the field, NUMBER 2, you’ve got to be kidding. Now we await the humiliating A$$ whipping from BAMA, so have fun with that (BUT HEY YOU ARE 7-1 and Richt thinks that is just terrific.) Pretty lame when a senior had to become the coach of the team and get them motivated. Not sure how many more years I will have to put up with Richt, I could be dead before anyone would ever have the gnads to get rid of him, but if they ever do then what a party it will be!!!

Uh… I don’t need to attach “real” to my nickname…
Where are the people thinking it was going be a 5 touchdown defeat? Where are all the people who thought the mighty Gators were going to manhandle our “Charmin soft” lines? Where are all the “Georgia can’t win the big games” people? I see the naysayers have fled… typical.
I am not just a Dawg when we win. I am a Dawg win, lose or draw.
Thank you for answering the call Bulldogs. It’s isn’t any fun to play half-heartedly guys. Remember this day. Remember this day when you finish out the SEC slate and go to Atlanta for the second year in a row.
I want to caution everyone about assuming that Bama will be the west representative. They have to get through LSU and that will be in Death Valley. It could very well be LSU in the Ga.Dome and not Bama. But whatever may come… if these Dawgs show up for that game it will be a Great day to be a Georgia Bulldog.
But for now…THIS is a GREAT DAY to be a Georgia Bulldog!

Number one problem with the offense is this statement…..
“It was a rough game. That was an SEC defensive matchup right there. Offensively, we had our shots at points, but we were just making mistakes when it comes to turnovers, penalties, stuff that we need to correct.”
Not “We” Mr. Murray. You. You need to play better. You need to be a field general and ensure that we put points on the board.

Someone as said that the reason the offense played so poorly is because they were playing a great defense. That’s true, but the offense did play well except for the quarterback. Our running was plenty good to have made passing pretty easy. And he was not pressured or sacked in the game. With the other team having 6 turnovers the score should have been 38 – 9, but Murray kept it close. It was a great SEC game to watch.

I really like Aaron Murray’s comments quoted above. He gets it that the thing to focus on is the areas needing improvement. We had a great victory. It’s great to be a Bulldog. Murray needs to be a team leader, step up, state the obvious, work on his game, hold himself and the rest of the team accountable for the many areas still in great need of improvement, and focus on what it will take to beat Ole Miss.
Unless we get very lucky two weeks in a row, beating Ole Miss is going to require a solid, competent performance by every Georgia player. Ole Miss is going to really be up and shooting for us. They see themselves as a talented team on the rise!
Our coaches need a butt whipping for allowing so many penalties, and for not haven already instilled a great deal more discipline. Penalties for intensity are one thing, but we had way too many for undisciplined, unnecessary activities when the play was over.

Dawg Fud – I agree Mitchell needs to channel all of his energy into the game and not into opponents facemasks – but, the kid is a tempest of rage on the field – that TD from Murray was 30 percent Murray and 70 percent his effort to pull away and get it to the house. Plus, one of his penalties was just because he was talking smack and the ref threw the flag – he didn’t touch the kid or anything . Remember last week when the ‘Bama player did the WWE move and head planted the running back? THAT is the kind of play you bench a player for – not for talking smack. You have to be careful you don’t neuter the stallion – you need the fire – THIS TEAM NEEDS THE FIRE players like Mitchell bring to the field – he’ll learn.

Murray had a rough game but remember he saved our bacon last week when the D had yet to show up. Our receivers were well covered all game / even the TD catch was well covered – Mitchell made that play happen. – there wasn’t alot to throw to. It wasn’t so much that Murray threw blatant picks but that they had a bad habit to be knocked up and about instead of just dropping to the ground. He did have one bad one. He did miss some open receivers. Here’s my take on a possible ‘Bama match up – anybody who says ANY TEAM can’t be beat is crazy. We could beat Bama but we would have to bring last nights defense with the Vandy game offense and put them TOGETHER for one perfect storm of a game – otherwise, ‘Bama is too consistent and too good to beat. They don’t have bad games – but we could have a great game. It’s doable

For people jumping on Murray: yes his 1rst half was another poor job against a ranked team; BUT you must give him CREDIT for getting his head straight in 2nd half. A couple of those stalled drives were because of dropped passes.

Hmmm…
Well, to be fair to the media; you couldn’t blame them for picking UF. The Gators beat A&M away and beat LSU and South Carolina ‘back to back’ at home. Georgia looked awful against South Carolina and not much better against a bad Kentucky team and could not stop the run. Florida’s strength? Running the football… On paper, they look like the clear winner.
Yes, Florida turned the ball over 6 times. Off the top of my head, at least one came from the QB’S arm being hit as he was releasing the ball and the last fumble came from Jones ripping the ball out. Those are foreced turnovers – not mistakes.
Alll three of Georgia’s turn overs were self-inflicted.
Georgia’s defensive pressure was oustanding all day. Florida had difficulty running the ball all day. This had been how they had won all year. Wearing down the other team; including LSU and a darn good A&M team.
I do not see UGA teams through Rose Colored Glasses. The kicking game continues to hurt. The missed FG would have meant two scores up – this thing’s over before JJ’s great play.
UF’S secondary clamped down on our receiver’s most of the day. And our QB made poor decisions most of the game. Not something you expect out of a three year starter who is already working on his masters and is described as ‘film room rat’.
First things first… UM is pretty good. Georgia cannot ‘mail in’ this game. And while Auburn looks awful; the LSU game was a war and we should remember that.
Georgia has to stay focued and get through the rest of the season and then will need to play with yesterday’s energy and mstake free to stay with the Bama..
With all of this said… Enjoy this! Been 25 years since the Dawgs won 2 in a row against the Gators… Takes a little of that arrogance away. Certainly makes it a little easier for our brothers and sisters who live in that state. And those ‘Gator’ tags around the state will bring a smile instead of a sigh or a frown.
Go Dawgs!

Agree with Dawg1. I love our dawgs – always have and always will. And I am ecstatic that we beat a team NO ONE thought we would.

But then again, so did Florida – even more so. And that is all that matters.

Good win , with a great D performance. I am still a bit disgusted with our FG/EP kicking. I estimate over half of the GA HS football teams have had better kicking success than UGA. Morgan may be great one day but he is a head case right now. It happens . Does UGA have an open competion for FG kicking every week? Everybody is mad at Murray for his poor play , but our receivers did NOTHING to try to get open. Pitiful routes. Bobo should have called more passes to the RBs downfield rather the one swing pass. A win is a win , but that was an ugly win. UGA should have won by 3 tds. I guess Bobo forgot about the hitch and go route? Just hitched all day. One positive on the offense was the OL play and Gurley’s ability to break tackles.

This game was not luck .UGA dominated on defense and has a better offense. The special teams is still a problem, if the kick goes in the endzone we need to down it. Our kiker is still ot reliable and scary at times. If Murray and the defense comes to play at the same time they could be awesome.

As Gomer Pyle would say “Surprise, surprise, surprise”!!! Great defense…great defense…great defense!!! Now run the table and see the “Machine of College Football”!!! Saban was upset at the end of the game yesterday against Miss State because they scored a TD…a dynasty…Ga Dome could be ugly!! Great Team Win Yesterday!!!

Definately not soft at FLA, but how do you justify this as the coach of the dawgs that you can come out strong a couple of time a year??? Yesterdays game confirms that we played SOFT the last two weeks and are capable of playing strong D….. What do we do too maintain tht level week in and week out as Bama does???

If Shawn Williams and the media got them motivated to play Florida, what does that say about the rest of the season? Do people not understand why they were called out for not playing with emotion?

Murray can play better in big games, like vs Auburn in 2010 in the first half. HE KNOWS THIS fact.
Murray needs to lead fro here on out with no mental mistakes, like that bone headed trow to UF safety Elam or the OT pic in FL game, 2010,etc.
IF UGA runs the table now to the Dome and beyond, he will be remembered. If not, he will be thought of like Eric Zeire, with tons and tons of empty passing stats. Yesterday, was his first step at being mentioned like Green and Others.
We need to blast Ole Miss and Auburn, Southern and the Joke by Coke.

Great win and couldn’t be happier for the Dawgs and yes – Coach Richt. Football is an emotional, physical game and must be played that way to get peak performance. The biggest issue going forward is how can we get our kids to play jacked up from whistle to whistle – but then have the maturity to settle down. We need controlled agression. UGA turned this one into a street fight – and based on the way they had been playing – it was their best chance of winning. They came out crazy and stayed that way – and out hit the Gators.
Bama plays as hard and ferocious as anyone – but without the extra shoving and mouthing off. Yes – that’s coaching – and what is demanded of them. Richt needs to show the guys that with that kind of effort they can play with anyone – but they have to be able to curtail their emotion once the whistle sounds. Discipline and execution still needed and is fixable – but this was a big step in the right direction. Hope we see it the rest of the way.
Go Dawgs!

I am thrilled that we won this game, and that we won when our offense was not clicking on all cylinders. I am proud that our defense rose to the occasion and played like they are capable of. Any win over Florida is huge. But make no mistake about it. This defensive surge and turnaround had nothing to do with Mark Richt. And it should have. It took a player on the team to step up and say what the coaching staff should have said. Yes, coach, they didn’t plat soft today because of the intestinal fortitude of one of your players. One that had the kahunas to step up and provide the fire that you should have.

Most of the offense played as well(or almost)as the defense, except for Jarvis who is in a league by himself. It is Murray that has to get his act together.

“We prepared hard this whole week. I’ve never seen these guys practice like this before.”
Sort of sums up the problem. Perhaps they should practice “like this” every week. I bet Alabama does.

I am enjoying this win but i am still not drinking the cool-aid. Yall dont forget the feelings we had last week against KY and the beating we took in SC. This team still has a long ways to go. Nowhere near championship caliber yet. We need both sides to get hot “O” and “D”. If that can happen then we got something!!!!! BOBO is still too predictable. Murray still panics too much…we need to get more plays to Marshall on the edges to use that speed. A good team (like Bama) would have eaten us up yesterday with our mistakes. Be happy UGA but dont be satistfied. Strive for a perfect game cause i guarantee you Saban strives / demands excellence. He was chewing out his players lastnite for mistaks even though they were dominating the game…thats a different kind of mentality over there folks!

A sloppy win over an overrated team. Georgia will most likely win the SEC East, then get trounced (again) by the West’s representative (most likely Alabama), but even if Georgia somehow wins the SEC championship, they’ll never make it to the Nat’l Championship game after their embarrassing loss to the Gamecocks.

Everyone praises alabama just like they were florida before yesterday. Alabama’s schedule hasn’t been any harder than Georgia’s so far so let not keep praising Satan. shawn got this team fired up for Florida,so all we need is for some other good players on both sides of the ball to call out some more and let’s just see how the DAWGS do against the turd. Anybody can be beat at any given time. Enough said and GATA. Goooo DAWGS.

Go DAWGS!!
All I ask Dawgs..is win the rest og the games..only have to beat more ranked teams..and you will hold the Crystal. GATA
OK BEFORE ANYONE SAYS..Dawgs have a loss too many unbeaten teams..I ask??? How do you keep UGA out of a BCS title game..if they beat the number 1 and 2 teams during the season?? not putting the cart before the horse..but if they win out HOW could they not play??

If we come out looking any different then it’s back to business as usual…..I’m happy for the win, but i’m not going to drink the kool aid just yet, still uncertain…..that 35-7 Georgia team might show back up………
