Report: Florida strength coach shoved Georgia’s Corey Moore
Best account I’ve seen yet of the pregame skirmish that occurred before Georgia-Florida this past Saturday comes from Palm Beach Post reporter Jason Lieser.
I didn’t see but the very tail-end of the incident myself as it happened right around the time they were preparing for the pregame toss. But according to Lieser, Florida safety Matt Elam instigated the incident by bumping Georgia’s Devin Bowman. Apparently a bunch of Georgia players then responded to the taunts of Elam and teammate Dominique Easley, including Todd Gurley, Malcolm Mitchell, Corey Moore and Arthur Lynch.
Liesler reports that Florida strength coach Jeff Dillman interceded and ended up shoving Moore. That drew Georgia defensive coordinator Todd Grantham and some other assistant coaches and referees into the fray. This is the part I saw and skirmish quickly dissipated with both sides squawking as they went their separate ways.
Wrote Lieser:
Gators strength coach Jeff Dillman, who later had at least one very animated conversation with a ref, was involved as well. Dillman shoved Georgia safety Corey Moore, then got in the face of a Bulldogs assistant.
The whole affair was over in less than a minute and no penalties were assessed (though officials would make up for that later).
Georgia coach Mark Richt claimed on his Sunday conference call he knew nothing of the incident until seeing a vague reference to it on the TV broadcast replay.
“You know what, I don’t know what happened,” he said. “I watched the TV copy of the game and they showed a little bit of that. You could tell there was some chirping and all that, but I don’t think anybody got physical or anything like that.”
Informed for Dillman’s shove and when it happened, Richt said: “I’d have to look at it. I’m not really worried about that right now.”
Grantham acknowledged the incident after the game but claimed he was merely telling the Georgia players to get out of the way. “I was telling our guys to get off the field,” he said.
The “chippiness” carried over into the game, where the teams combined to be flagged 24 times, including several personal foul penalties.
“That was one of the most intense games I’ve ever coached from start to finish,” Richt said. “. . . You want intensity with discipline. But I didn’t want to slow anybody’s ability to keep their blood hot.”

Georgia and Florida had totally different different approaches for the game…..and both appoaches worked great to stop the strength of the other team. I have not read one single story about that fact. Florida pulled back on rushing Murray and laid back 7 and 8 defenders to stop the pass….and it worked….and Georgia was able to run some. Georgia ran 7 and 8 up into the box and stopped Florida’s strength, the run. And Florida was able to pass some. But neither team was able to do much the entire game on offense, a mighty testimony to the quality of defenses of both teams. There was some great defensive coaching going on in that game, and very little offensive coaching going on from my perspective. Bobo reacted too late and so did Pease to what each team was doing. Still…it was the 3 extra turnovers than won the game for Georgia. But it was a serious, head knocking game on both sides. I am sure it will be the same next year……but hopefully with a different outcome. Best of luck to Georgia in the SEC championship game, but I think they have little chance vs. Bama because Bama has even a better defense than Florida….and certainly a better offense….and they do not make mistakes like Florida did. If Georgia loses that game and Florida wins out……Georgia will likely end up in the Outback Bowl again and Florida in the Sugar Bowl or some other BCS game….and higher ranked. That will really get in the jorts of Dawg “fans.”

I totally agree with your post. But if UGA wins out they will win the SEC East. May not be Sugar Bowl but still a good season.

florida’s classless acts by both coaches and players throughout the years have been tremendously more than GA’s. From Charley Pell spying on Georgia practices (and still losing), to Spurriers mouth and running up scores, to players trash talk and inciting GA players (like saturday), to eye-gouging, to Meyer’s timeouts.
So all you got on GA is an endzone celebration and Grantham’s choke sign while on the sideline.

I think Florida is due vs. FSU…..but the game is at there place….so it will be a challenge for sure.
Georgia better be fully ready to play Ole Miss. Their offense is dangerous…..and if they play defense just a little bit….it could be a very tight game. But I think Georgia wins by 10….and then mauls Auburn….and goes to play a seriously good Bama team. Good luck with that one.

I think it’s time to put the FL dominance to rest. If UF wants to go back 20+ years to make their point, then heck, let’s just go back 40+ years and see how it looks. the only game that counts right now is nxt years. Well, maybe in a week or so. As some said above, I loved the hitting on both sides. Refs are getting out of hand, calling too many unnecessary fouls. Although I am sick of all the jawing and jumping on the pile after a fumble when there are already a dozen guys on the pile. Good game defense and O line and running backs. the rest of you need to step up. Murray take some valium before the next big game.

Tampa Gator….Georgia has more talent at the skill positions which seemed to be the difference in the game. If I’m in your shoes, that should be encouraging because FL did a BETTER job at stopping GA’s strengths until the very end of the game. Also, if we’re talking about the “difference in the game” I think it’s a wash when you include the penalties against GA. I could argue Murray’s interceptions were as much if not more damaging because it could have been demoralizing for Florida to be behind 14-0. (Much like it was for South Carolina last week).
I think you have a good coaching staff over there and with one additional skilled player you guys could have won.

Actually, Muschamp gritted his teeth and mumbled cuss-words at his coach, like he did to one of his players and made ESPN’s ‘event of the weekend’ or some such thing. Tampa very well may be right…if we make it to Atlanta and get beat, we’ll have two losses, Florida will likely only have one and end up ranked higher and the Sugar Bowl will pick the higher-ranked team…so much for the rationale they used on us that time, that a team should, at least, play in their Conference Championship game before they get to make a BCS Bowl…then again, we’re not Alabama, or Florida either for that matter. Two things…we could go to Atlanta…beat Alabama…and knock every SEC team out of the NC game. Or we can just be happy with having beat UF and pi$$ed Spurrier off and do another bowl.

murray did have a overall bad game….but he did something his rival qb jeff drunkskell couldn’t do…and that was lead his team down the field and throw the winning td pass….after re watching the game…..two of murray’s int’s….some of the blame has to go to the wr’s…because thoses passes hit them right in their hands……just one really bad int….and that was the pass that sailed on him…..anybody else notice that mitchell got his face mask on that td run he made???….that should have been a 15 yard penalty enforced on the kickoff and maybe fla doesnt even get down to the 5 yrd line and fumble the ball game away……….hey tampa gator….how does it feel to lose to us two years in a row? and answer me this….how many nightmares have you had about jarvisw jones in the last two years?

joe, agree with you on the two interceptions. They kareemed around after hitting a receiver and were caught, could be considered bad breaks, but it was still good defense by UF. My take on those two int’s were that we should have been pounding the run as it was impressive. As a coach you should know how “demoralizing” it is for the opponent to ram the ball down your throat.

Now that I think about it, if UF looses to FSU, they very well may not be ranked higher than Georgia, even if we lose to Alabama – particularly if it’s a close game. So forget what I said about the Sugar Bowl, we won’t sit still for that.

TDawg….
I picked Georgia to win the SEC East at the beginning of the year…..and it appears they will
I picked Georgia to lose to SC and beat Florida is a close game…..I got that right.
I picked Florida to beat SC at home…..I got that right.
But I also picked Florida to lose to either A&M or Tennessee….to finish 3rd in the East. I got that one wrong.
Georgia has a lot more talent at WR….at RB….and that was the difference in the game in the end. But I think Pease reacted to slowly to what Georgia was doing on defense. He continued to run on first down throughout the game and should have put Driskel more in the shotgun and not under center as much…..he is much better in the shotgun. Look what he did on that final draft when Florida did just that and attacked Georgia’s secondary on first and second downs….and let Driskel run from the shotgun. He is much more dangerous back there. I think Muschamp has been overly stubborn about established the run and beating the other team down. That works if you do not turn the ball over 6 times. And not so well when you do.

Respectfully disagree Tampa….I said to my friend several times that what Pease did was actually really smart. He used his best asset…Gillisslee(sp?) to get you guys to third and short, which would negate the aggressive nature of Grantham and the GA defense on 3rd down and short. However,despite the recent play, GA actually has corners who can cover average to good WR’s. it just seemed like GA made the plays when we needed to.

Hey, maybe we should hire Dillman to push our guys around before every game! One serious point: nobody seems to think having a hurricane a few hundred miles off the coast could affect the game, but I think that is a mistake. Try throwing a football in 20-40 MPH winds. They affected the play calling and especially both QBs. The QBs compensated by throwing fastballs at close range, but that leads to tips and interceptions. The field was damp. It doesn’t excuse all of the turnovers and dropped balls, but it definitely affected both teams.

The Sugar Bowl team selection rules are simple.
1. If the SEC Champion is not playing in the BCS Championship Bowl, they are automatically selected as one team.
2. The remaining one or two slots are selected from the BCS qualifiers. Those are:
There is no rule that the SEC Championship loser gets a BCS bowl. Remember that LSU beat Tennessee in the 2007 SEC Championship. LSU went to the BCS Championship and Georgia went to the BCS Sugar Bowl. Since BCS rules only allow two schools from the AQ conferences, Tennessee was relegated to the Outback Bowl.
It is concievable that UGA plays Alabama in the SEC Championship, loses and Florida gets a BCS bid. That would block UGA from a BCS bowl, meaning no Sugar Bowl. Sometimes in the SEC it pays to come in second in your division. Ask Alabama.

Florida through the Sprurrier years and then on to Meyer pretty much owned the Dawgs for that time and became to think of us like we think of Kentucky or Tech, like it’s out God given right to win every year. Georgia as a state has too much talent for that to happen long term. Coach’s come and go, like Goff,Sprurrier, Meyer and one day Richt. Things change….and looks like they have the last two years.

Please go back to the old Tampa Gator or please leave this UGA blog. Hopefully, you’ll take the message respectfully and bury your negativity and continue to be welcome here. I hope so as I welcome other points of view but not the crap that Alabama fans spew and your last couple comments were coming close to that drivel. You’re better than that and you know it.
Thanks,
Georgia fans

As I predicted a couple of days before the game, the LIZARDS would have REPTILE DYSFUNCTION – fumbles, interceptions and penalties. Not bragging but that is what happened primarily because of the pressure put on the Lizard QB.

From the sound of this CMR is getting it: “That was one of the most intense games I’ve ever coached from start to finish,” Richt said. “. . . You want intensity with discipline. But I didn’t want to slow anybody’s ability to keep their blood hot.”

If Georgia can win out the regular season, and almost certainly lose the SEC Championship Game, then they will have done what was expected from them.
There is no use in expecting them to achieve at the level of the best 5 programs in the country. Clearly they are not among this group.
Be satisfied with what you have, and have always had (save one miraculous season), and simply enjoy the sport of football.
Expectations far exceed reality and the situations at Bama and LSU won’t last long in the scheme of things. Don’t forget that Saban was a total loser in the NFL, so there is a limit to his “greatness” as well. He is surrounded by people at Bama who help him succeed.
Things are always changing and last years success does not guarantee next years success. The loss of a few people may change things completely.
Bulldogs can enjoy the next 365 days of a victory over Florida!

Why all the chest pumping, you would be penalized 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct if you were playing the game. Richt is no better, nor no worse, as a coach, as he was before the game.

Win a few National Championship Games (like 3 since you have won 1) and run your mouth pups! That game could have very,VERY easily gone either way. If you think not, you’re just kidding yourself.

____________________
I thought the same thing until he whined incessantly Sunday about what he perceived as bad calls by the refs in the game. That after UGA had 4 more penalties for 37 more yards. Folks on the blog at the time beat him down for his excuse-making until he finally sulled up and left. Once a gator, always a gator. An arrogant excuse-maker.

@ Infant Dawg – Tampa Gator has openly acknowledged support of the Dawgs as long as they are not playing Florida. He would likely support them if playing for NC. Still don’t agree with all of his logic but I guess it’s consolation for him to hope for UGA to fail so UF can eat to New Orleans by default. However, he was off on his prediction of LSU to Cap 1 Bowl. They would go to Cotton Bowl before any bowl in Florida.

Cbs showed a snippet of the skirmish in their lead in for the game. The replay is available on comcast ondemand under css. I didn’t think the fla coach pushing ga players away from fla players was all that bad. At the end of the clip, though, you see a ga coach w a headset (grantham??) come up to the fla coach and it looks like he got in his face and shoved him. Tough to tell but I was surprised that CBS didn’t hone in on that.

Gato18, UF was physically pounded, tone was set the first series. The only reason it wasn’t a blowout was the terrible half by our qb. By the end of the game not only were the gators physically whipped, they were mentally whipped as well, al the talk had left them and they were left to being “tattle tales” by pointing when someone said something to them. Just like a bully, run that mouth until someone puts a fist in it and then they turn tail and run away.

The Gators and their fans have thought they were bad as**s for years – now they see that when it comes to playing hard they’re no longer the baddest – we went in there and when they threw their best punch they got two back and they folded like a cheap paper doll – I think it was Driskell who had the “deer in the headlights look” – not Murray LOL Bottom line – they were the fumbling, bumbling, didn’t have an answer team that they are – they’ve never outclassed Georgia in talent or anything else – we’ve had a bad run against them but the tide has turned and we will once again kick their swamp butts all over the field – just like the good old days when we owned them for DECADES – yeah, that’s the part of the history they’ve been trying to hide and forget about, but guess what boys – “WE’RE BACK” !

7:28 am
Joe Jenkins, Murray’s three int’s were all on him. The first was thrown into triple coverage and the ball did not hit the receiver in the hands. In fact it was deflected on a nice play by one of the Florida DB’s. The second one (a TD drive killer by the way) was behind an open receiver as he cut over the middle of the field. Yes the receiver reached back to try to make a play but his momentum was such that all he could do was deflect it up and into the hands of a Florida DB. The third one was just awful as Murray’s feet were in a bad position as he seemed to be panicking over a phantom pass rush. He whipped the ball at least 15 feet over Marlon Brown’s head into a waiting Florida DB’s hands.

T-DAWG commented earlier about the refs having a “huge chip on their shoulders”…nonsense!! They showed tremendous restraint by not throwing out several players during the first quarter…they knew both teams would be high on emotion early and did what they were trained to do…throw flags and later went to both coaches to warn them that if the ugliness continued, players would be ejected from the game. The best conference in the land also has some of the best officials in the land…period!! Great job refs…T-DAWG, keep a count on the suds before watching the game…you’ll enjoy it much better.

Congradulations Dawgs on the Fl. win. After watching Fl.vs LSU game, I expected and predicted another blow out like UGA vs South Carolina. This was a UGA win we have been longing for … with every player giving great effort the entire game.
The Fl. coach shoving a UGA player is no big deal. I cannot imagine a Fl. coach deliberatly seeking out a UGA player to shove. My guess is the Fl. coach was trying to keep things under control. Again my guess, based on the whole game (24 penalities), the UGA player was “chripping” and that made the coachs’ decision on which player to shove an easy one.
After the last few years, I’m under no illusions about UGA and their chances for “major” championships. Jarvis Jones excluded, UGA is not a good team. Overall the team lacks discipline. Players gets in their opponents “faces” and tout them, resulting in personal fouls (Mitchell) and excessive celebration penalities (Mitchell and Gurley)… this IMO is a coach problem.

If Georgia loses to Bama and FL beats FSU the FL would likely get the Sugar. That’s just how it is.
As for the chippiness, it was from both sides. But I must say that my impression of the Gator nation is that they love when their team/coaches disrespect other teams, they relish in it, but as soon as it goes the other way they are beside themselves and start using words like “classless.”

our only hope for the nat’l championship is to whip an undefeated alabama
and have AT LEAST 1 of the 3 other undefeateds lose. but we all know about
the uga bias out there. we wont get in even if we accomplish that feat. but
if lsu beats bama and beats us in the sec, LSU will for sure get in. let me
remind u about all the tv folks saying in 07 that if u dont win ur division, u
dont get the chance to play in the nat’l champ game. well, that didnt hold
true for bama last year. i dont care how good they were, they didnt win
their division and that was the excuse for not giving us the chance in 07.
so anyone who thinks we’re getting in it this year better hope for a bama
victory over lsu and 2 of the 3 other undefeateds to lose cause thats the only way it is definitely
happening. if fla loses again we should get the sugar if we were to lose the sec, so pull for fsu,
if uf beats fsu then we’re headed to orlando against michigan. i hate the trend of how not
reaching the sec championship game is a benefit to a better bowl game. that needs to be
fixed. but it all starts w/ole miss sat so GATA DAWGS!

I’m a dawg fan and I remember seeing the “incident” when it happened. It is a complete non issue and no one should be disciplined and no one on the GA side should really care too much about it. If you have a problem with being shoved, you should probably quit football and go collect stamps or take it out on every player next year by working your tail off in the weight room during the offseason to show them what strong really is. Non issue, who cares.

Well, tv folks are talking heads, they don’t decide anything. It’s all decided by BCS ranking. Why is it so hard for UGA fans to understand? are you sure you got a college education?

There is no question that sports analysts impact the rankings and who will play for the title. They can talk up the team of their choice. And don’t give me “impartial,” did you see how giddy Lou Holtz was at halftime of the UGA/SC game, and how despondent he was after SC lost to FL? Had SC won, he becomes a trial lawyer pleading a case for SC.

Love what you did to the gates but have to disagree with most of your blaming the gates for the pregame encounter. Was at the game and had a good view. All of the confortations took place between the gates tunnel and bench. A place where no Bulldog player should have been. Hate the gators and love Richt but do not like to see that in college football. Had the Georgia players stayed where they should have nothing would have happened. Can’t think if any reason for the Georgia players being where they were other than to stir things up.

There is no way UGA will play for the MNC even if we do beat Bama in the SECCG. The best ranking they will have by the time of CCG will be 5th. Beating the # 1 team with Kansas State, Notre Dame, Oregon still ranked above use will put two of those teams in the MNC. The best UGA can hope for is the Sugar Bowl but the most likely, as has already been stated, Florida will go to the Sugar and UGA will go to the Capital One Bowl. Hard pill to swallow but I’ll take a SECCG appearance any time.

This game has taken on the heatedness that the old FSU-UF games did back in the ’90’s with Spurrier and Bowden. GA has finally found their winning ways after like 30 yrs, so now it’s time for the Gators to wake up and take them seriously. Just hoping that Muschamp has his loyalties in order since he’s a GA grad. Surely he knows who signs that paycheck. No Gator coach since like Charley Pell has lost two games in a row in a row to GA, and now along comes an ex GA football player, and sure enough it happens. Muschamp will need to win next yr to dispel that link to his past

BCS ranking is determined by Harris poll, Coaches’ poll, Computer polls.
1. Coaches poll has no “tv folks” involved.
2. Computer polls have no “tv folks”
3. Harris Interactive College Football Poll is comprised of 115 panelists and includes former coaches, players, administrators and current and former media.
OK, Harris may have the current “tv folks”. I don’t know how many “tv folks” are among the 115 panelists. But even the 115 people are counted as 1/3 of the BCS numbers. BTW, some of the “tv folks” are UGA fans.
So, according to your “tv folks” conspiracy theory, how does the numbers add up to displace UGA out of NC? can you elaborate?

No, the series is back to game day situations. IF UGA continues to sign talent and we beef up our o line play with depth and talent, we should win 50% of the games.

October 30th, 2012

I watched the replay last night on CSS. UGA won again!
I was wondering during the Gator’s last drive how they were suddenly opening huge holes for their RB. I have never seen more blatant, obvious holds right in front of the umpire with no calls. At the 4:00 mark, Ogletree is pulled down from behind by a horse collar 6 feet in front of the umpire. The offensive lineman didn’t try to hide it, Ogletree stepped around him and was in the hole with a clear shot at the RB and he was pulled down. I think it injured him and prevented him from making the tackle on FL last play, the fumble. The same guy didn’t call the obvious face mask on the Dawgs last series, it was the side judge. Either the umpire is biased or incompetent.
If you don’t believe me, watch the play at just below the 4:00 minute mark in the 4th.

Looks like Tampa Gator has lost his way again. I’m sure that he thought that this was just another ad in the Red and Black. Maybe he was harkening back to the days of Charley Pell and Galen Hall. Maybe he thinks that it was just luck that the Mullets lost. Maybe the strings from his cut off jeans got caught in his seat and it kept him from jumping up and cheering at the end of the game. Maybe he is right about the Sugar Bowl. We will just have to see. Muschamp is a good coach, and his team will be ready for FSU and whoever else that they play. His problem is there is no offense. The UGA defense is good, but South Carolina proved that it could be exploited. I see UGA running the table and going to the MNC game. So Tampa Gator, I object to your Purple Haze Projecttions

Here is a little side note for all you duck fans, I mean dog fans. Why don’t you learn how to play in the SEC. Your schedule for the PAST TWO years has been pathetic. The fact that you got out of playing Alabama this year in regular play is a shame. Please go look at what we had to face in the past TWO YEARS and then come bring your flee bag self back into the SEC. Take your little win, and take your 6 turn overs within the the 15 yard line and enjoy it. Soon very soon you WILL have a changed schedule and you will have to play better. You did surprise me on Saturday, and every dog has its day. If the dogs are what WE send from the SEC east then its a crying shame! Lets also remember the this is a very young Gator team and the second year for our Gator coach????? Taking this into consideration and the fact that we also controlled the ball longer and were driving down with 2 min to go and tie it which I am sure we would have. But,,,you guys did well on the recovery and so it goes. Like I said (( IN TIME )) you will be able to see what we can and will do to the dawgs. So do enjoy this win, and the turnover win,,,,but I am very sure we will be back again to show you how the game should have gone and how its going to be. It truly would be nice to see the dawgs have a schedule with some nuts in it.

Swamp Donkey…go back a few more years when UGA played Bama, LSU and Arkansas. The shift between the power struggle with the SEC East and West happens every few years. The East dominated a few years and the West has dominated a few years. As a Georgia fan I do miss the more difficult schedules…those tough schedules make for a better team, legit rankings and more exciting games win or lose.

Maybe the series with UF is turning into one where we each win our share of games – given the talent on both teams, thats about all anyone can ask for. I dont think UF will dominate us like they did for 20 years, and I dont think we will dominat them like we did the 20 years before that.
Regarding the refs, yeah some were a bit nitpicky, however (and no I am not a retired ref ! hahaha) I think the little pre-game spat, and history of the rivalry led the refs to put a clamp down on anything and make sure everyone knew who was in control.

Yeah you did that,,,,,but at some point in your crappy scheduling, your gonna have to man up and play better teams. At this point right now, you would have LOST to Alabama if you played them. So truly you would be a 2 loss team. In fact you should be kissing the SEC a..ss right now. Again, I defer you to go look at our schedule and tell me if we don’t play better and stronger teams. In other words, if you did have a harder schedule YOU WOULDN”T BE where you are at now. So,,,as I say, enjoy your time it will be short lived. I am very confident in this Gator team and considering the 2nd year of this guy as a coach. Ohhhhhh,,,my friend I am very happy with how we are playing and a loss is fine. But,,,in time you will see our domination over you. Its just like you hated Spurrier here now you get to hate him at S.C. and now your gonna hate Will M. as well.

He has one recruting class under his belt. I am not bitter at all,,,,I said in a previous post that I was thinking 3 losses. I just don’t think a lot of dog fans understand WHERE this florida program is in terms of players and time of coaches teaching our team. If we are playing this good, this young!!! Then as a team,,,my idea is Florida only gets better. Now if I am mistaken then jump in. Maybe ya’ll see it different!!! But based on coaching and young players, I’d say this is a building team and IT WILL get way better.

Matt Elam at center of pre-game incident in Florida-Georgia game
by Jason Lieser
For some reason, some Georgia players decided to hang out near the tunnel where the Gators were going to run onto the field before the game. For some other reason, Florida S Matt Elam decided to bump CB Devin Bowman.
What ensued was sprawling altercation between the teams that preceded Georgia’s 17-9 win. Elam appeared to be the instigator. Florida DE Dominique Easley figured prominently. So did Bulldogs TE Arthur Lynch, FB Alexander Ogletree, RB Todd Gurley, CB Sheldon Dawson and WR Malcolm Mitchell. Several others had a role, but it is difficult to keep track of them all.
Gators strength coach Jeff Dillman, who later had at least one very animated conversation with a ref, was involved as well. Dillman shoved Georgia S Corey Moore, then got in the face of a Bulldogs assistant.
“It’s something that’s expected out of a rivalry game, just two teams going at it,” Gators LB Jon Bostic said.
Elam ran back to the mess of players once he realized a fight was happening, and one referee tried to derail his course with an ineffective shove. It slowed him down long enough for several UF assistants and coach Will Muschamp to intercept him.
Is Muschamp Georgia's Trojan Horse?

I remember one time after a Georgia – Clemson game that Georgia won at the last minute that Danny Ford came across the field and got in Vince Dooley’s face.
I saw the Vince Dooley that probably only his players saw that day. He bared his teeth and got in Ford’s face and it looked like two snarling wolves about to go after it.
I was proud of Vince for setting the tone for his team and understood that he was a gentleman until circumstances called for him not to be. I think I saw the United States Marine in him at that moment.

Georgia rushed 7 and 8 players on every down….good strategy to stop Florida’s running game. Florida only had 5 and 6 blocking…and therefore Georgia was able to stop the running game and force Florida in to 3rd and long passing downs….something they are not currently good at.
Florida rushed only 3 and 4 most of the time….good strategy to stop Georgia’s passing game (and primarily why Florida did not sack Murray)…and Georgia blocked most of the day with 7 and 8…..keeping the TE and RBs in the blocking scheme. That would be 6, 7, and 8 people blocking 3 and 4 rushers. Still, Florida got pressure on Murray and forced him to hurry is throws….and therefore Georgia’s passing game was ineffective…except for that one big play.
So….both teams had excellent defenses and excellent strategies to stop the other team. Georgia just executed on offense a little better in key opportunities (Marshall vs. Reed basically).
Georgia won….and they deserved to win the game. I just do not understand so many of you talking down at Florida and the Florida coaches. But I have come to expect nothing less from some of you….and much beter from others. You know who you are….some wear class well and others do not have any.
Go Gators.

Well….then….someone beats K-State in the regular season. But I am not sure who that would be in that weak conference. Kansas State would have trouble moving the ball on any of the top five teams in the SEC. I have been very impressed with Notre Dame, however. They are very good.

TampaGator – good and bad fans regardless of the what team they pull for. My brother is a FL grad, I am UGA grad, Dad from AU and Mom from Tenn, so I know all sides. You’re are correct – GA made a few more plays – next year will be a different game and it will come down to the same thing, which team makes a few more plays. Stay classy – ignore the haters. Good luck to you guys for the rest of the season.

Time for “honey does”….see ya….and good luck vs. Ole Miss. I honestly hope Georgia wins out and goes to the SEC title game. You earned it with the win…and now go justify that win by winning out.
Go Gators….and good day.

@Swamp Donkey- I am pretty sure that opening with Clemmons will be considered one of the tougher opening games next year and 3 of the 1st 4 games are against ranked teams (currently). Maybe change your name to SWAMP DOUCHE

I’ve got news for all of you. ALABAMA is NOT unbeatable. I’ve seen them play. They have weaknesses just like the rest of the best. Right now they are surviving on a weak schedule and intimidation. If a team can get past the intimidation factor (and LSU is one) they can be beat man to man.

TampaGator,
Gators has a chance in NC, as gators are the best team in the East.
You have one close loss, while UGA has an ugly loss to a team gators beat badly. On top of that, gators’ schedule is much more impressive than UGA’s.
Yes, gators have a better chance than UGA does in my book.
Huh?

@Alphare- I think you must mean the Sugar Bowl and not the NC. For FL to have a chance, LSU, UGA and Alabama all have to lose AND 2 of out of these 3( ND, OR, and K State) would have to lose too. Oh yeah- gotta beat FSU 1st. While UGA may have a slim chance to win, FL has none.

I think it was in the second quarter (after Fla fumbled and recovered), but I saw Mark Richt really get in the face of the refs – he was as more mad than I have ever seen him (actually a welcome show of emotion), but does anyone know what he was mad about?

From a totally objective viewpoint…it was a very sloppy game on both sides of the ball. Impressed with the intensity, but not the ability. Neither looked like a top 10 team.

If one of UGA’s coaches did this it would be all over the media. The media would be asking for the coach to resign.

lots of interesting banter , Tampa you sound pretty knowledgeable, good luck the rest of the way, have to agree Ol Miss could be trouble if overlooked or overconfidence coming in in top 10 sets the tone, doubt it though, they got a good taste of that earlier in Columbia, SC and look out for Bama, not many weaknesses there I see, they haven`t played a strong defense yet but have allowed quite a few sacks on the SEC stat sheet. that seems suspect with their O line though, we`ll see hopefully. Many think losing to Bama in the champ game would send UGA to Outback or Cap1, personally they should deserve NO but that`s politics. Got enough of that going on anyway right now I`d say. JArvis for Pres, at least he does what he says and packs a wallop!

I won’t call you an idiot because that’s too obvious, which I don’t bother to repeat.
Gators’ chance 1.1/100, UGA’s chance 1.0/100, since 1.1>1.0, …

So much Whine, so little time…just can’t get to it all…
Bottom line, play one game at a time starting with ole Miss. Focus, cutdown turnovers and stupid penalties and avoid injuries. Piss the Defense off before every remaining game…

If the Dawgs were to slip up on Alabama, I doubt that they would vault to the BCS Championship game. I don’t think anybody is going to put Georgia at 1 or 2 unless the Dawgs blew out Alabama. Also any time ND is in the top 4 they are going to end up playing for the championship. I’m just sayin….but, GO DAWGS!

I am tired of our offensive coaches (Bobo)
Inability to adjust at halftime. They look like geniuses against weaker defenses but lack the knowledge and experience to figure out good defenses. I would like some creativity and newness to our offense. CMR cleaned house on defense a few years ago and he needs to do the same on offense. Go Dawgs!
