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!

SEC upsets giving Dogs a chance
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Don’t look now but Georgia is not out of this thing yet.
As is becoming increasingly evident with every passing Saturday the SEC is anybody’s to take this season, particularly in the East where the Bulldogs hang out.
As I’m sure most of you couch potatoes have already seen, South Carolina lost to Vanderbilt 17-6 today — what do you think of the Commodores now, Steve Spurrier? — and Tennessee went down in flames against Alabama in Tuscaloosa. The Dogs could not have asked for a better scenario.
Well, actually they could. Though ultimately the outcome won’t have much to do with them, Georgia would just as soon have Florida go ahead and beat Kentucky today (the Gators have scored 14 unanswered points to go ahead 14-7 in the second quarter at this writing). That would put Georgia, Florida and South Carolina in a three-way tie for the Eastern Division lead at 3-2.
Georgia would control its own destiny with Florida and Kentucky ahead on the schedule and needs some help with the Vols and South Carolina, which has the head-to-head on the Dogs. The Gamecocks are likely to lose again, either at Tennessee, at Arkansas or against Florida. UT needs to lose again against either the Gamecocks, Arkansas or Vanderbilt, all of whom they play in Knoxville, or at Kentucky in the season finale on Nov. 24.
Obviously a lot still has to happen and, ultimately, it all comes down to Georgia winning out the rest of this season. That’s remains quite the long shot if you ask me. Except for Troy, the Bulldogs might not be a favorite in another game the rest of the year. But the point is, after this weekend, everything is still possible Georgia. That’s one heck of a positive note to kick off the week. And as we’ve all seen this year, crazy things happen.
What do y’all think? Any way the Bulldogs pull this off?
