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!

Do Dogs look like a No. 1 next season?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Hey guys. meant to be back before now but I’ve been snowed under with training and have been driving back and forth from Athens to Atlanta.
Wanted to get the ball rolling on what surely will be a hot point of discussion. Carter Strickland has written a story (I actually haven’t read it yet myself) looking ahead to next season and where Georgia may fit in as far as preseason polls and expectations.
I’ve seen some people on this board say the Bulldogs, should they win big in the Sugar Bowl, should be preseason No. 1. I caught a little flak when I said I didn’t think they’d be one but would be likely be top 5 and that Florida might be ranked even higher (or is it lower?).
Sure enough, I understand from Carter that’s pretty much his findings (he talked to folks from different areas). He did a kind of straw poll from different folks from all over and there’s a lot of sentiment for Oklahoma, Southern Cal, Ohio State and LSU to be ranked right there with and, in many cases, ahead of Georgia when next season starts.
Like I said, Carter has a lot of nice details in his story and a chart that compares the return starters and records of the various teams.
So eventually you’ll have the benefit of that information also. In the meantime let’s get the debate going on whether you believe the Dogs will be in the national championship hunt next season? Should they be ranked No. 1 preseason? Top 5? Doesn’t matter? Heck, yes, it matters?
This will be a subject we weigh in on a lot between now and next season, so pace yourselves!
