UGAUGA

UGA blog finds new home

Morning all. As I’ve said a couple of times this week, we’re converting this blog over to a WordPress platform and it will be a permanent move the first of next week.

Those of you who are regulars probably know that I’m not what you’d call techno-wizard when it comes to these things. But from what I understand the technology offered in this new format should make the blogging and commenting experience better for all. Of course, I’ll be learning as we go along, too. But I’m hoping to provide more pictures and video and things like that which should bring the blog more to life.

Of course, this blog is nothing without all you guys so I want to heartily invite (read: beg) you to come over to the new site by CLICKING HERE ON THE NEW ADDRESS and save it in your browsers. As of Monday, Feb. 23rd, this will be the permanent home of the UGA blog you so love or, in the case of some of you, love to loathe. If you’d prefer to copy and paste or just memorize, the new address is: http://blogs.ajc.com/uga-sports-blog/.

See at the new place!

Let the Tech-UGA debate begin

OK, one down and one to go. Without getting profane or insulting, how about thinking of logical, based-in-facts reasons why Georgia can beat Georgia Tech.

I’ll get you started: Confidence. Georgia now has what it has lacked all season. The players actually believe now they can get it done. Two, three weeks ago there is no way Kenneth Harris makes that 40-yard grab from Matthew Stafford. But now that he has there is no way he drops another one.

The offensive line is also feeling good about itself. And when it gives protection it is pretty startling how good Stafford can be.

OK, now let’s flip over to the other side of things: For those Tech fans out there — again, without getting profane or insulting — how about thinking of logical, based-in-facts reasons why Georgia Tech can beat Georgia.

Again, I’ll get you started: Jon Tenuta. This is the kind of game where Tenuta can bring out all kinds of blitzes and confuse the heck out of Stafford. Remember what he did last year, and D.J. Shockley and his offensive line both had experience. Georgia had little or no offense, and managed very few big plays (one just so happened to win the game for them late in the fourth quarter).

But I expect Tenuta to bring all kinds of heat on Stafford, and if the Georgia run game is not healthy (currently it is not) Stafford will be at the mercy of the pass rush.

OK, now it is your turn. Rant on.
