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!

Shellshocked Dogs stunned by Vols
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Wow. Wow! I have to admit, I didn’t see that coming. I would have been the first to tell you Georgia could lose to Tennessee on Saturday. In fact, I thought it was quite likely. But to be blown out like that — 28-0 in the first half, 35-14 in the game — I didn’t see that happening.
So me and my colleagues are just up from the locker room and about to bang out our stories. But quickly, defensive coordinator Willie Martinez said his unit was not surprised by anything it saw from the Vols. “They just beat us physically and out-executed us.” Safety Kelin Johnson said he was “really embarassed” and the performance was “unacceptable.”
The offense could never really get out of the hole and the off Bulldogs were “whipped up front,” according to coach Mark Richt.
I even asked of Richt the dreaded, “Are you concerned that this will give the perception that your program is slipping?” He clearly didn’t like the question but said the Dogs are simply 4-2, nothing more, nothing less. Asked how they made need to reassess their goals since the SEC championship game is effectively out of the question, Richt said, “We’re focused on nothing other than Vanderbilt,” next week’s opponent.
That’s all I have time for now. I’ll check in later. Y’all have at it.
