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!

DEL.ICIO.USGators have seven TD celebrations
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
For everybody wondering what Florida would do to answer Georgia’s touchdown celebration, there’s your answer. The Gators retaliated by scoring seven touchdowns en route to one of their most lopsided victories in series history — 49-10.
It was the worst loss of the Mark Richt era. It was on the way to being a bigger rout than anything Steve Spurrier ever did to Georgia when Florida was up by 46 (49-3) late in the fourth quarter. But then Joe Cox led the Bulldogs on a scoring drive. So the 39-point victory was only the second-biggest Florida win over Georgia ever. Some consolation, huh.
As for that Tim Tebow-versus-Matthew Stafford debate, Tebow certainly looked a lot better on this day. The Gators’ junior quarterback and reigning Heisman Trophy winner played a nearly flawless game: 12 carries for 39 yards and three touchdowns; 10-for-13 passing for 154 yards and two touchdowns. Stafford had a horrendous day — 18 of 33 for 265 yards with three very costly interceptions, all in the second half.
The only gigging I saw from Florida was calling all their timeouts on the final possession of the game.
So there you have it. The Bulldogs didn’t play very poised in possibly the biggest Georgia-Florida game ever. Instead, it was one of the biggest routs ever.
Your thoughts.

Congratulations to the Gators. They really took us to the woodshed today.
This game was lost in the first couple of possesions. The same story line as other big losses…..very poor play calling in the red zone….penalties….an uncharacteristically bone-headed call by CMR on the kick….youth in key positions.
About the only thing good about it is perhaps it will quell pro draft talk for Moreno and Stafford. I can’t believe they want to walk out of Georgia spoting the a$$ whippings Alabama and Florida put on them. Let’s hope thay have more competitor in them than that.
Go Bama….you just picked up a bunch of fans in red and black for the SEC and BCS run!

Alta~Dawg, Cuz, Hunk, Shane, Zoo~Dawg and the other AJC blog regulars——
Please accept my condolences on the outcome of today’s Florida-Georgia game. As excited and happy as I am about the Gators’ win, I can only imagine how disappointed y’all are. There were certainly missed calls by the referees today, but I don’t think their cumulative effect was even close to being the difference in the game.
Sorry, guys, but one of two good teams had to lose today. Better luck to your kids for the balance of the season.

By HERE ARE SOME FACTS
November 1, 2008 7:27 PM | Link to this
THE FACTS:
UGA is a good team. Maybe even a top 20 team. They are not a BCS Bowl quality team.
UGA played 2 Very good teams so far and got blown out in both games.
The UGA team will play in the Outback or Capitol One Bowl and will be matched against a team they should easily beat.
Some UGA fans on this blog talk piles of sh!t and now all the UGA fans on this blog will hear the retaliation.
The SEC has 2 very good teams and a few good teams. The remaining teams are average or below, not the “powehouse” you seem to think.

The difference in coaching styles and attempts to win are obvious. if the shoe was on the other foot, we would win 21-10 and play the nice guy way and keep the game close in the 4th quarter, the gators smelled blood and went with the stake thru the heart. A very disturbing trend is developing where when we get beat, we get embarrassed.

Mark Richt will never be Vince Dooley and it is for one reason, D-I-S-C-I-P-L-I-N-E.
As in he does not know how to enforce it. All the talent in the world cannot succeed without discipline. All the penalties, missed scoring opportunities in the red zone, poor gamesmanship, etc.etc.etc. are the direct evidence of this fact.
Don’t get me wrong, Mark Richt is a fine football coach in his own right. But he lacks the ability to focus his football teams when it comes to the one characteristic needed to win Championships.

Florida is the Detroit Pistons of College football. They play dirty. There were several horrible no calls like on the interception by hagan and the touchdown by murphy. I also was p** about them staying on Moreno when he was down so he could not return to the huddle.
This day was not the dawgs day. Everything went wrong. The penalty negated the int, the onside kick, the play calls with 2nd and 2 in the red zone, the offensive line failed to protect, turnovers by stafford and moreno. I am a dog fan and I will be first to say that Georgia is not playing fundamental football and are overrated at this time.
They need to pick up the pieces and make this a decent season. Championship next year.

**ITS A WRAP. GEORGIA WILL NEVER WIN ANOTHER NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. THEY HAD THEIR BEST CHANCE LAST YEAR AND THIS YEAR. FLORIDA OWNS THEM AND THAT BRINGS UP ANOTHER QUESTION. WHY MUST GEORGIA PLAY THIS GAME IN FLORIDA EVERY YEAR? IS GEORGIA GETTING PAID BIG BUCKS TO GIVE FLORIDA THIS HOME GAME EVERY YEAR (LETS GET REAL, ITS PLAYED IN FLORIDA). ANYWAY, DOESNT MATTER NOW, IT WOULD TAKE TWO DECADES OF BULLDOGS WINNING JUST TO TAKE THE STAIN AWAY FROM THE FLORIDA DOMINANCE.

Bobo is clueless in the red zone and Martinez just gives up tons of points.

This program has peaked under Mark Richt.
Let me say that again for those who will go into next spring/summer with banter in 2009 —yet again— about THIS being Georgia’s year.
This program has peaked under Mark Richt.
How does a team with this much build-up and supposed talent get shellaced in it’s two biggest games of the year? There is something wrong.
The descent from the mountain has begun —and it will get a little ungy in the next couple of years because of unrealized —and really unrealistic— expectations from the fan base and the local media.

Your bloated egos really got out of control last year. It might be about 6 or 7 years before you see the sun again. Urban is that good a coach…and he can cry as much as he wants…and call TIME OUT as much as he wants. It sure feels good. Now, the Gators have to stay focused for Vandy, SC, and FSU…and then go up against a very good team in Bama, I hope. If they win out, no way Penn State goes over them based on beating only Ohio State this year. Texas/Florida for the NC game. That would be a fun one to watch! Go Gators!

It’s too bad the UGA coaches didn’t put our kids in a better position to win. Resorting to trickery that early in the game sends the message to the team that they can’t win straight up, and undermines the confidence that the kids needed to beat a top notch team. What a shame.

Hats off to the Gators. I didn’t partcularly think the Gators executed as well they did in their other lopsided victories and we certainly helped them to all those points. Good teams at least play competitive in big games. We did not. I would like to see some more fire from CMR.
BTW…is it just me or does Urban Meyer come off as an fin prick…maybe its just that smug smirk he always has. Roll Tide!!! I never thought I would route for Nick Saban, but I hope he kicks the Gators ds in the dirt.

Once again another quality opponent, we show no emotion, stupid redzone play calling. The way we play in the big games this year we deserve to lose. This team will never be a top tier team until they develop a killer instinct. We play for field goals, while the really good teams play for touchdowns. Willie’s defense is pathetic, his a-$ should have been fired last year. Congrats to the gators.

However: Moreno is no Herschel Walker: Walker NEVER took himself out of the game when we got close to the goal line and ready to score. Moreno did this in the UT game…in the LSU game…and in the UF game when we were on the 10 yard line…what a disappointment! He is good but he is not tough when we need him the most. What a disappointment. Maybe he needs some more Finish the Drill exercises.

There is NOT a 46 point talent gap between the Gators and the Dawgs. Place the blame on the coaching for this one.

Not even reading the previous blogs. Not going to start calling for anybody’s head. That was a worse a* whipping than UA.Everyone involved with UGA’s program whther it be fans, coaches, players, etc. should be embarrassed. So called preseason ranked#1 team. Yes, I am adie hard DAWG, have been for over 30 years. This is probably the single worse game I have ever seen UGA play. If Richt does not get his S$$% together he needs to fired; along with his sorry a* players. Tell me, if you have the top # recruiting class, then what is the difference between UGA and UF? UGA fans get mad, don’t give a crap. Probably better off asking a UF fan. UGA was domiant in everything but the score, Even the F&%! ups. How many times can you screw yourself with stupid mistakes? Whether Coaching or simple execution. They controled almost every drive, Offenseand defense. They managed to make a deathly error in one of those drives, everyone. My conclusion is that I don’t know who said it a while back; a UF fan or a AL fan. UGA is no more than a REGIONAL program. Put them on the biggest of stages and they choke. Every year, every freaking year.You will say last years celebration had nothing to do with the game. Oh, but it did. If you pull a stunt like that; then you damn well better be able to back it up. Guess what UGA didn’t, but they never do. What does UGA do now? Win out? who really cares? I don’t. I am tired of 10 win seasons. I want a championship. Mythical or not. I am to the point of finding a new team to pull for. UGA definitely does not have what it takes. I don’t know if it is coaching, players, stigma or what. UGA ust does not have what it takes. There is a reason that UGA gets treated the way they do by the national media. Put up or shut up has long passed by.

I love CMR’s faith and his approach to life. He doesn’t want to humiliate other teams players…I understand. But we have a problem here.
Our players always come out flat in the biggest games. We don’t seem to be able to play with a lead or to come from behind. I know we have talent on our team to compete with UF. So why didn’t we? I think it is coaching, plain and simple.
The philosophy is the problem. We do not play with a killer instinct. We don’t play with passion. It is as if scoring points doesn’t matter as much as holding the ball. Our players are not the problem…the game plan and philosophy is.
If we played with a chip on our shoulder, we might not be as flat. Calling toss sweeps and quick screens all the time is passive offense. It is ball control. And it seems to be all we can do. We are predictable.
Defensively, we play on our heels too much. WE are not creative enough to confuse opponents. We are predictable.
We need play more aggressively. There needs to be more discipline on the field. We need more passion. Last year, we started playing with fire and what did we do? We went on a tear and looked like we could beat the world. This year we look flat…back to CMR’s passionless play.
Richt needs to choose coaches who can instill that passion and enthusiasm in the team. VanGorder did. Martinez is failing in that department. If Richt can’t unleash the big Dawg…he needs to hire coaches who can. If he can’t design a game plan that out schemes opponents…he needs to hire someone who can.

I’m available if you need me. I’m in between tours/getting high on my tour bus…and I’m sure I can do a better job with the current UGA “D” than your current Willie.

I am a lifelong Gator fan and would like to comment about the Tebow versus Stafford debate. Tebow is definately a good college quarterback, but Stafford will be the better NFLer. Even with his 3 interceptions, he throws an unbeleivable pass and has been the only offense UGA has had this year. Lets no forget he’s thrown for like 2300 yards this year so far. He will be drafted higher than Tebow and will play in the NFL more than one preseason like Tebow.

UGA fans - you can’t blame the game on the refs (not when you lose by 39). And don’t get onto Urban for keeping Tebow in midway through the 4th quarter, passing late in the 4th quarter, and using those timeouts. Remember when we had about 70 guys dancing in their endzone last year? I’d say the timeouts were a bit much, but oh well
Everyone else - The game wasn’t nearly as big a blowout as the score would indicate. Georgia had more yards than Florida by about 50. Florida was the better team. But not by 39 points.
I’m really rooting for Bama now.

It’s time for Bobo and Martinez to be replaced. For those who think Richt should go, well, just remember the Goff and Donan eras. I prefer the Richt era thank you, however, it’s time to get some better coordinators to take the coaching to a new level. Our talent is far too good to keep under achieving. I hate Urban Meyer. I hate Tim Tebow. I simply hate Florida. I hate losing to them. Maybe this will light a fire under everyone to finish the season well. Go Dawgs!

Atlanta Gator, congrats in a big win. your gators played lights out.
Mark Richt was brought to Athens to restore balance to the force. he should be winning these games 50 percent of the time. he is now 2-5 against Florida. My patience has run thin with his poor results.
I am getting close to requesting the U-haul. This was a defining game of his career. He continues to be overwhelmed in the big games on the national stage. He should be ashamed for the way we looked today. It all starts at the top. He’s looking like the next JoPa…

The Dawgs showed some signs of improvement along the offensive line. The defensive line and secondary remain weak as they have been all year. The offense turned it over so much that the already weak defense had to play most of the game, hence Fla’s high score. Stafford had a bad day period. Those things happen. Dawgs are NOT championship caliber this year. Lost too many quality players last year to recover this year. Richt still excellent coach. Dawgs will recover, hopefully next year will be better.

Ok Dawg fans you have to ask yourself.
We have been in the top 15 in recuriting for 10 years, where are those players ?
Are these guys those players ?
Why do we always say we are rebuilding when we loose games like this ? I mean after all we have been in the top in recuriting for 10 years our rebuilding years should be over right >?
Ok Dawg fans lets look at it this way.
Now that we have lost the pre-season #1 , the sec championship hopes, the national championship hopes we can always just say the only game that really matters is the tech game right ?
I mean we are not going to say that we suck and just got the chit kicked out of us are we >?
We are not going to say Mark and our guys by record can’t win the big ones most of the time right ?

BurtDawg, I disagree about talent being the problem. UGA’s weakness this year is a young, banged-up O-line and a D-line that’s not as good as we usually have. We know the Dawgs won’t have weak lines every year. At the skill positions, we are fine. Besides, did Ole Miss have more talent than Florida earlier this season?
In the post-Spurrier era, the big problem has been the psychological disadvantage which has caused the Dawgs to not play their best in Jacksonville. It’s going to take something like 8 GA wins in a row to reverse the Dawgs’ psychological disadvantage.

I think that you Dawg fans who don’t appreciate Mark Richt are crazy. Have you seen what Florida State’s offense has looked like without him? I’m a Gator fan and I think he’s an exceptionally fine coach. Y’all are going to win your fair share in this series. Preseason picks are preseason picks for a reason. It’s all meaningless until you play the games. Alabama is a surprise. So is Florida’s running game to some extent. This is all going to come even in the wash. I’ve been a Gator fan long enough to know.
Additionally, Dooley coached in a different era. I think that if you put those same coaches, Bryant included, on the field today with the scholarship restrictions and rules, they might not dominate the way they did.
As for the final score… Our backups were playing. Do you want them to play dead? Regardless of the score, it was your defense’s job to continue to play.
Finally, yes, there were a couple of blown calls. However, I don’t think they were worth the 39 point difference.
Best of luck to the Dawgs for the rest of the year. I hope you win all of the rest.

I have never walked out on a game in all my life. I did tonight. I have been a heads up ultra-positive dawg through thick and thin. Now Here is my criticism. While Richt has done a good job of patching together a young beat up team, I have been wondering all season about the times that I have read him say things like, “they had a pretty darned good practice today, so we canceled conditioning.” I wonder if the man has gone a little soft. What happened to finish the drill? NO more high dives and Ford trucks. You have the makings of a great team for the next three years. Get on their butts!
Honestly, I am sad to say that the Gators did not really look all that impressive to me. This leads me to believe that the Dawgs (obviously) and the whole SEC are way overrated. Alabama is the only team that looks tough enough to take on a team like Texas. Perhaps, the problem is that the players let all that hype go to their heads.
I for one feel that the players and coaches of UGA owe the bulldog nation one huge apology.

You fans give him all the glory when you win against undermanned and undercoachrf teams, so give him grief and blame when he is not up to the task as a head coach against top tier coaches. Richt is a joke of a coach…trying trick plays early in the game, instead of manning up with his “top recruits”. He is only 15 wins against 14 losses when trailing at the half!!!

Tebow is better than Stafford. Myer is better than Richt. Some folks act as if they didn’t know this before today. Richt is a good Boy Scout leader, but not a hard-a** college football coach…which is what we need. We don’t need to take our players swimming, bowling, or to ride bicycles or play bingo….somebody needs to be instilling in them how to win football games against GOOD teams. Sure, we can beat the Ga. Southerns, the West Georgias, the Valdosta States, and the Shorter Colleges…..but can’t seem to match up equally with the Big Boy teams….the ones who are focused and disciplined and know how to win championships. I dare guess the national championship will be won by teams like Texas, USC, Florida, Alabama, Oklahoma. We’re on the level down. We’ll always win 8-9 games each year with the current coaches.

I don’t care if he turns pro now. He has had adequate time to mature. Even with Chandlar moving in the end zone he was SO OPEN that I could have lobbed a pillow to him. Stafford needs to learn than not every pass needs to be a fastball.

Contrary to a lot of opinions posted on this forum, neither UGA nor the refs beat the Dawgs today. Georgia did make a lot of mistakes, but an extremely talented Florida team made them pay for every one of those mistakes. That’s what a championship-caliber team does. All the barking and howling in the world does not diminish the fact that Florida was the superior team today. Congratulations to Florida for a truly great performance, even if it wasn’t terribly classy in the 4th quarter. For the Dawgs and their fans, championships, national and conference, are not everything. These young men still have a chance to play some good football in the remaining 4 games and to grow and mature as a team, as players, and as men.

I didn’t watch it, I’m glad I didn’t, and it is very apparent that Georgia does not have the discipline to win any championship, maybe not even the state championship. The score is less a reflection of the difference in talent than it is the difference in a) cajones and 3) character. The Georgia teams that have won over the years didn’t lose because of stupid plays, penalties and general indiscipline. (Even some of Dooley’s teams were this bad, ‘77 and ‘79 come to mind). Good teams don’t get blown out, plain and simple, and right now Georgia doesn’t even belong in a mid-level bowl. They’ve laid down against the two good teams they’ve played, and they have deeply embarrassed themselves and the school they represent.

Lets see where do we start? Moreno was a No-Show, Had to put a second string quarterback in to get a touch down annd as usual, the Dawgs are whinning like the little pups that they are.
I just don’t get it, You think Stafford is a better quarterback then Tebow. Heck it was so bad down there that the Fans even quit. The aerial view was sweet!
Florida had to put in their third string band in just cause the first two got tired of playing the fight song after the touch downs. I must say though, in the very end even the GATOR fans &Players had enough cllass to cheer on your only touch down. Good thing, there was no one els to do it.
As usual, i’m sure at work on Mon I will either hear that we cheated or the infamous ‘Wait until next year”. I think that should be the new school motto.

In the post game show, CMR said that in his opinion there is not much difference in the skill level of UGA and UF even though the score did not reflect that. This is typical bulldoggie attitude and denial.

I APOLOGIZE TO COACH MARTINEZ
The moderator on DawgPost.com banned me for criticizing Coach Martinez and stating that the Willie could not keep the Gatorsfromscoring 30 points and that the Dawgs would never win a National Championship with Willie as the Def Coordinator
In Willie’s defense the offense played so poorly he cannot be blamed for this loss.
So Mr Moderator..can I please post on DawgPost again I did not curse anybody??

I hate to say it but Richt may be getting in trouble if he doesn’t make a “change” after this season. I like what he has done with this program overall but his continued refusal to understand that a real change is needed could be detrimental to his career at UGA. His only real success has been with another coach’s players. His teams have been soft, underacheiving, and unable to stiffen in clutch games.
Phillip Fulmer is in trouble because he forgot that HE is not the only coach in that program but he IS the final stop when things go wrong. Richt would do well to learn this lesson before he too begins to have “noise in the system”.
Like it or not, the old days are gone. No more can a coach last 20 or 30 years with mediocre or poor teams - not with the money involved at the elite programs.
I hated the loss, I was embarrassed at the playcalling, execution, coaching, etc…
MARK - understand that if you refuse to change, that you want to be a “stand up guy” and stick with your people then it will be all of your staff that loses - not just those that needed the change.
It isn’t just one game rather a culmination of your tenure at UGA. All the talent in the world means nothing if it doesn’t have the drive and direction to use it.

The fans of college football teams led by perceived Men of High Moral Character ALWAYS blame the assistant coaches because it allows them to defer blame from the icons. Think FSU, where the Rev came from, and how it was always the assistants’ fault when FSU lost. If you blame Marky Mark you are tarnishing the glimmer of the halo. Can’t be doing that!

Actually, as far as recruiting all these so called Blue chips. Stafford is a great QB. I thought his game was not that bad today. However, will UGA fans know just how great he could be. Staff has been starting for 3 year, when the heck has he had an OL to lest him be a pocket passer ? I love th quotes, all CUM recruits is skill players, what about UGA? What do they recruit, it damn sure no OL or DL. We can get upset and b#@%^ and moan about the bad calls, missed calls. There were some, and I was p**.

The game was totally lost when Richt called that stupid, inane, and rediculous on-side kick, when there was absolutley no need to do so. With only about a 7-8% chance of success, it screamed “WE’RE DESPERATE” to the Florida team; I have never seen Richt make a more rediculous move in my life.

It’s basically impossible to beat an opponent when they score 5 TDs on possessions that started inside your own 40. Even worse, three of those TDs came on drives started inside the UGA 10.
Just a brainless, gutless performance.
We’ll hear from the media about how this was “payback” for our celebration last year, but the fact is that we handed the Gators this game on a silver platter today. Everyone who watched the game (and is capable of rational thought) knows that to be the truth. To Florida’s credit, they took full advantage. Their fans have every right to ridicule us. We sucked out loud.

Let me start by saying that I am a die-hard Dawg fan. I have been reading these blogs for a long time now, never posting before tonight. First, let me start off by congratulating Florida and it’s fans. You were the better team tonight.
To the Dawg nation, please help this lamenting Dawg. At the start of the season I was sure that we were at least a Top 5 football team, and with all the skill and talent we have, we should have been. However, with losing Owens, Sturdivant, etc I knew that took some huge depth from our team and realized that we were going to struggle through what is probably the toughest schedule in the country.
That being said, WTF is Richt doing? My god, he didnt just get beat, we got embarassed. Again! Bama comes to our house and emabarasses us with Gameday there and a Blackout, and when we somehow inch our way back into contention for everything we have been playing for, we completely crap the bed. WTF? I blame coaching. Period.
Are we that bad or is Bama and FLA that good? I’ll answer my own question….they have better coaching! Richt does not get passion out of his players. Our offense looked lost and scared. WTF? SEC championship and National Championship chances down the drain. I’m tired of making excuses to my eight year old son for the embarassment at the hands of Richt and company. Give me a coach that will step on someones throat if they keep making the same penalties. Damn, they broke my heart again. Its one thing to lose, its another thing to beat yourself in the biggest game of the season. I’m ashamed. Someone please give me hope again.

I hate to say it, but it’s time for a new defensive coordinator. Willie Martinez defense gives up too many points. This is not a good sign for a top ten team. I think a change has to be made. Florida’s spread option is GARBAGE. Michigan showed you how to shut it down in the Capital One Bowl, hell Ole Miss showed you how to slow it down. Wait until they face Alabama in the SEC Championship game. Nick Saban is going to eat them alive. At any rate, congrats to the Gators…they deserve it. Meanwhile, Coach Richt needs to find a new defensive coordinator.

Same old thing every year. CMR will win most games and some will be BIG wins, but he always loses 2 to 3 games that we should win. He does not have the coaches and/or the ability to be a national championship team. This game was lost on the first drive when Bobo/CMR called stupid red zone plays and we had to settle for a field goal which the blockhead missed. I really expected a loss today.

I don’t know what to say, me and some friends got together twice this year to watch the BAMA game and now this one, And neither game did our team show up. Blame this one on the coaches,and the Alabama game. THe guys just werent ready to play.You can’t have as much talent as we have and have these kinds of blowout games. Last year Tennessee.,cost us the NC game. To be humiliated like this is really unacceptable.
The players were undisciplined, the coaches reverted to trickery instead of making a statement. which suggest that you feel like you can’t match up or you are overly confident, give FLA coaches credit they were ready to play. THEy played unintimidated, if anything they were very conservative offensively in the 1st half. WE felt for some reason we had to kick on side kicks and run Stafford on 3rd down around the end? (3rd and 8 from th 16 of FLA). THEse two losses to me speak more about the coaching than the talent we have,great coaches are able to coach their players to inspiring wins.Our coaches haven;t been able to get great talent to perform great.

And memo to Richt, if you don’t make a change with BooBoo then you need to go to the ministry, and allow UGA to get a coach that cares about winning football games and dominating opponents like Fl. and Al. coaches do. Richt’s mister nice guy mentality has no place in the SEC, and if the UGA fan base wants to put up with this B.S. with RIcht and BOOBOO, then congratulations on being a second tier program, you deserve it. A head coach is responsible for his team, and it’s coordinators. So Richt had better make a change with this loser BOOBOO,or do us all a favor and go start a foster home or do something with your faith, because the Dawg nation has lost faith in your head coaching ability.

Congrates to the Gators. No matter the situation (Ref aided or not, turnover or not) they made each and every play they needed to. The Dawgs simply do not have enough talent at the skill positions to execute properly.
Urban Myer simply was brilliant in the last minute calling the two timeouts. I hate the Gators, but what he did made that victory for his team resonate in the UGA players and coaches just a little longer. How does CMR and staff rebound from this?
This was a typical game for this series since 1990. UGA simply was not mentally tough enough to overcome the adversity that was presented.
Tough loss, but it does not dimenish my love for the team or University.

Missed the TV broadcast but listened to the radio. Sounds to me like the defense quit in the second half. It is not just that they scored, but scored easily on the first play after turnovers. Of everything that happened today, that is the worst if it is true.
Stafford had a tough day, but I’ll take him over Tebow any day. Sounded like a couple of the interceptions were great defensive plays. Overall, the offense moved the ball. We just made the big mistakes
Richt is still the man to lead this program. Mack Brown took his share of big losses at Texas and still won the NC.
I am disturbed that we get away from basic plays in the red zone to go to misdirection and trick plays. Ever since the Tenn game, and we have suffered in there to prove it.
If the onside kick had worked, Richt would be hailed as a genius. At least give him the credit for having guts.
I can’t believe the SEC sent the same officiating crew out to work the game after what happened last year. Seems like we paid for it, by what I could hear on the radio. Hopefully the officiais are now appeased and we can move on. I am sick of the calls going against us at every crucial moment.
Georgia looked like last year had never happened. The open receivers missed, the drops, the critical mistakes: reminded me of the early 2000s…better team, just screwed up mentally in Jacksonville.
It is time to go home and home. As long as we were dominant, it didn’t matter. Now that it is equal, it does.
It is time to get the SEC office to quit providing Florida with a scheduling advantage. Playing LSU on the road is a lot tougher warm up than playing KY at home. Especially after FL got an off week for years from the SEC office before the GA game.
I’d love to play them again. I think we would whip them.

I am afraid you are right,,,,but what does that say about our program? All these ignorant UGA “fans” talk trash about Tebow. But CBS showed his press conference footage after the Ole Miss game. Say what you want but the kid spoke with conviction and passion about how he intended to perform and LEAD his team the rest of the year. Today, he backed it up.
Stafford is a great individual talent, but we have never seen that side of him. Perhaps it exists, perhaps he has a different style.
My fear is if he goes early without some more development in his heart…not his arm….he will have a very Jeff George like career. George was a great talent, but had no heart and couldn’t get starving people to follow him to a free bread line.
Winners lead…..Tebow led today, and personally, my hat’s off to the young man.

What more could Martinez do? The offense simply put the defense in terrible situations all game and CMR kicks an on side kick. How many drives did the Gators have to go 35-40 or less? They are a VERY GOOD TEAM! You cannot win like that. Rainy and Demps where silent basically the entire game. Harvin made some nice plays, but they weren’t game changers. Turnovers killed the team. Tebow had a nice game, not exceptional but he managed the offense brilliantly. CWM should not shoulder the blame for this performance at all.

Until Georgia gets real coordinators and a head coach who can instill some discipline & passion into the Bulldog players EVERY WEEK—this is the best its going to be. Georgia has the talent to win now & win big—the problem from my chair seems to be that the Dawgs are ALWAYS on their heels in the big game when there is something to lose and there are expectations for success. Last year’s UF game—who expected Georgia to win? UGA does not have the discipline, heart, toughness, or confidence to win the big game when it matters on the big stage. The Dawgs don’t have the edge or the killer instinct needed to be a Florida, Texas, or USC. Them’s just the facts, folks. Losing the big game is OK, but getting blown out time after time when all the chips are on the table just sucks—plain & simple sucks. Is it too much to ask that we keep it competitive? Guess so with this crew. Fire Bobo, Fire Martinez, and if Richt doesn’t like it—fire his A$$ too and bring Will Muschamp back to Athens.

Dog Fans,
The big game is over. Now we have to play for a decent bowl. I hate saying this. I hate that it’s come to this. But we choked again in a big game. We beat ourselves and there is no excuse. We are playing only for pride now. I’m very disappointed.
This is on the coaches as much or more than on the players. I have said this over and over again this season after our wins. We look like we play to win by one point. It is inferior talent that we blow out. Better teams play us closer. We get blown out by championship caliber teams.
Our talent is not second tier. Why do we play like a second tier team?

EMBARRASSING!!!!! Our coordinators are weak and the players never look like they are prepared. Look at Texas, Oklahoma, USC, etc. Their offenses are dominate and UGA has no worse talent than they do. Our offense is 2 things - inconsistant and has NO recognizable guidance. All tunnel screens and hitch passes need to be banned permanantly. Only one thing needs to be said about Martinez - GOODBYE! Even with all that, I still love my Dawgs!!!

You guys are something else! OK, we got beat today by a great team. But for you guys to get down on Mark Richt is awful. Look at the injuries we have had this year—especially on the offensive line. And we still will probably go 10-2. No, no SEC or National Championship, but we still are a very good team. Face it…we could be like Vanderbilt and delighted to win 6 games. Or Tech and have to play like bigshots (for a change) because they beat the worst FSU team in recent memory.

I’ll be the first to let you know, I am a Tech fan but do enjoy watching the Dawgs as I have been a youth coach for over 20 years in the Metro area and have coached and coached against several current and former Dawgs in the youth leagues. My observation today as I flipped between the games is this: UGA was not coached well enough during the week and also during the game to compete with UF. The atletes are NOT 39 points different, it comes down to preporation and UGA was schooled. Not blaming Martinez or Bobo but CMR, he is the CEO of the program, it is his responsibility to make sure everyone is “dialed in” for the biggest game you’ll play all year. He failed again. Being a great man, great family and a straight up dude does not make you a championship coach, I think you need an a* kicker at times and, in my opinion, CMR fails in that department. Give me a Saban (a*****), Meyer(whiner) or even a Paul Johnson (the jury is still out but snatching up a player by his jersey, ripping him, then patting him on the back and hugging him) I’ll go to war with. Nothing against CMR but having to cater to the ultimate high expectations from the UGA faithful, alumni and just plain fans, I think his focus is not everywhere it should be to win a NC. Anyway, UGA, get an a* in there, screw the alum, fans etc, WIN and see if all do not “fall in love” By the way, my son attends UGA and is their #1 fan so no BS from me. Good luck except 11/29/08, and remember CPJ’s brothers famous quote, “If I were UGA, I’d be worried!”

As to “not winning the big one”, what’s worse….

As tonight we shift fron Eastern Daylight Time back to Standard Time, the clocks in Athens all stopped at 9:11 PM. That’s 49 to 10.
That was a joke.
What’s not a joke is the criticism of Mike Bobo’s play-calling in the red zone. The bottom line is this: red zone efficiency is directly related to the success of your offensive line. That Georgia simply didn’t have today due to injury, youth, and some poor play against a very quick Gator front. Blame the OL coach moreso than Bobo on that score.

Wait until next year is all I hear Georgia fans say. When are you all going to realize Georgia was overrated. They were overrated last year and certainly should have never been No. 1.
The only thing they aren’t overrated in this their obnoxious fans!!! Geez, get over it. Like ya’ll said last year, you guys had three quarters to do something about it and your self-proclaimed best quarterback in the country couldn’t do anything but throw interceptions.

Tech still sucks and Trey Bloome should keep his nastiness in TN where the women are as big as the men and have only slightly more teeth - or so I’ve heard.
Every program goes through changes, some good and some bad. A program has to grow and continue to get better. Its when a program doesn’t do this it ends up getting a “fresh” start.
I like Richt but its time for a change. I’d like to see a REAL Defensive Coordinator - willie sucks chicken balz; and Bobo needs to go - jesus christ he sucks - and no I didn’t like him as a quarterback.
Richt would do well to make some meaningful changes at the end of the year or the rumbling will grow. You have to win the games you’re supposed to win and the games you HAVE to win. Nobody gets paid that much money just to have an average season.
And just to be clear: Tech still sucks!

UGA lost the game today but they’re not empty soul losers like you people claiming to be fans and after a tough loss today, you want to stick your head in the sand… talk about firing everyone, gonna go pull for some other team, blah blah blah… go… PLEASE go.
Four turnovers- four touchdowns. Take those away and its a different ballgame. The fact is that we got our butts whipped. I’ll take my butt whipping, say good game Gators, and pull for my Dawgs again tomorrow, next week, and next year.
There’s something worse than losing a ballgame and thats losing your pride, your spirit, your soul. So how about all you ex-dawgs taking your zombie souls on over to the next bandwagon cause us real fans are ready to puke just being around your sorry a*******es.
As for me, I still support Mark Richt as the head coach of the Dawgs. If he feels like some coaching changes need to be made, thats up to him. When I support somebody its with all my heart. If I get my butt whipped I get up and buy the other guy a cold one and try again tomorrow.
I’m glad when I was in combat I didn’t have punks like you around me, I’d just as soon shoot your a$$ as the enemy, at least the enemy wasn’t a soul-less chicken sh!t. I could respect him.
Even if your convictions cause you to want to bail, getting on a blog and running your mouths with the Techies and other trolls and haters ain’t the way to do it.

Ok I expect no one to comment on my comments but will say them anyway. First off I don’t care for Florida especially after myer tried for his style points today. However, take all the bad calls away and Florida still wins. They are a better team, Dawg fans, face this reality. Is it because of talent? I don’t think so. It is coaching. All year i have kept my mouth shut about mr bobo and mr martinez, thinking, as a typical optimist, that we are not showing what all we have…..well, since Ga Southern, we indeed have shown all we have…we cannot expect more from mid level high school game plans. I did not say COACH when i stated MR. to both of those gentlemen. The term coach is reserved for just that, a coach. These two are not college level coaches in any aspect. Don’t give me the crap of the bend don’t break, or anything else. The love affair between the “family” needs to end, and Evans need to end it if Richt will not. Van Gorder, ya he was ok…the last defense Ga had which were true junkyard dawgs was when the master Erk Russell was there, he could change schemes mid stream. WM cannot change from his game plan, no adjustments at all. Bobo runs the most simplistic offense in the SEC. Could i do the job…no I do not claim to be a coach and can admit that. As a fan, anyone can see exactly what the dawgs are going to do everytime they line up. My pee-wee football team could beat the dawgs defensive scheme. Today florida was the better team…talent wise no, but that means nothing in the scheme of things…

I don’t blame the Gators for scoring 49 on us. They’re trying to win votes toward an MNC. I wish we would get over the “class” issue and rack up some points too. Or at least find a happy medium between the two. Fla is going to have an uphill battle with Penn State clouding up the issue and the media darling Trojans. They’re working on a resume and the more points they can score on a top 10 team the better for them. Hell, we weren’t crippled.

Losing to a good team is expected sometimes and is tolerable. Being humiliated by one IS NOT. If a team claims to be championship material, it doesn’t get behind by 31 points at halftime, it does not lose by 39 points, and it puts away the weaker teams on its schedule by more than a few touchdowns. Something is wrong in Athens, and Richt will not have too much longer to put it right. Bulldog nation will not tolerate being humiliated. Either we will produce teams that win consistently and keep it close when they lose, or we will get new coaches. Subject over.

TWO BIG SEC GAMES AND BOTH TIMES THE DAWGS PLAYERS AND COACHES DON’T SHOW UP. ONE TIME IS A MISTAKE! TWO TIMES IS A TREND! THEY HAVE CONSISTENTLY HAD PROBLEMS SCORING FROM THE RED ZONE IN BIG GAMES! AN ONSIDE KICK?! AN ONSIDE KICK??!! AND ALSO ONCE AGAIN A CRUCIAL PERSONAL FOUL PENALTY DURING A 3RD AND LONG WHEN WE CAME UP WITH AN INTERCEPTION ON TEBOW. PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME I’M BEING PUNKED! PLEASE TELL ME CMR HAS REPLACED ASHTON KUTCHER AND I AM BEING PUNKED! I GUARANTEE WE’LL BE A PRE-SEASON TOP 3 AGAIN NEXT YEAR AND CMR AND BOBO WILL FIND WAYS TO SCREW IT UP.

Since Richt has been at UGA, we have had rapes in the athletic dorm, sold conference championship rings on ebay, had players assault teachers, students and pregnant females, played convicted felons, led the country in arrests, and produced one of the lowest graduation rates in the country.

Unfortunately NCAA ball like pro ball starts with $$$$$$!!! We spend 50+ mil on our program annually. UF spends 80+ mil. Their coach makes 4.5-5 mil yearly, ours makes 2.2 mil. Thats the bottom line Georgia fans. UF takes their sports seriously and plows alot more cash into it than UGA.
guess our college spends more on other things like education and intangibles around the beautiful UGA campus. It sux year after year, looking back and remembering such moments like in 2002, our only loss that kept us out of championship game was to them. Their complete dominance since 1990 in this series is tough to take in light of the fact we used to own this thing in another time period. Face it dawg fans our program has been second tier since the beginning. UF might be working on a third NC in twelve years. UGA prob won’t get another one until I am dead (currently 35)
Our recruiting etc…. all are gonna be down from here. The Cryer might become bigger/badder as a UF coach than Spurrier himself. Looks like he will clean up in recruiting and beat us for years to come. Never seen such an underprepared team in such a big important game!!! CMR’s UGA program is in a fast decline from here. I am still p** off that National Media put us number 1 as a joke? I feel to watch us get smoked down from there. WE couldn’t beat Mizz or many other teams from top 25 now and I am scared of GT and thier coach for years to come. Richt has peaked and NOONE is gonna want him for their own.

Congratulations to Florida-they showed up to play and play they did. They toyed with UGA all afternoon long. The Dawgs deserved almost everything that happened to them; there were the usual bad calls by the refs,but even if every one of the calls went UGA’s way, the Gators would have won by 28. This was the most inept performance by a supposed top 10 team I have seen in a long, long time. We UGA fans would do well to keep our mouths shut about Ohio State getting stomped by USC earlier this year. After this horrendous exhibition the Dawgs should consider themselves lucky to be in the top 20. The deflated game balls should go to every unit. Absolute embarassment is the only feeling that comes to mind for me right now. I’m not even going to pull out the thesaurus to find all the synonyms for terrible that could be applied to this charade of effort. I’ll give Coach Richt credit: when UGA loses there is no doubt as to who the better team is on the field. This ranks up there as one of the biggest debacles in Georgia football that I’ve ever witnessed.
All that said, I’m still a lifelong Dawg and I’ll take the insults and slurs that come with an atrociously lopsided loss. The Dawgs will be back, but this season is one of the most disappointing I’ve been through. You can’t candy coat the fact that, as a preseason number one team, the Dawgs have turned in two of the more devastatingly horrific games in their recent history.
And, though giving the Gators their due as the better team today, Urban Meyer is still one of the most classless coaches who have ever walked the sidelines in college football. Disputing a 9 yard catch that was obvious to everyone in the stadium and everyone watching on TV with a 25 point lead in a game that was clearly already decided showed that he is aa poor a winner as he is a sore loser.

An onside kick in the first half? Calling timeouts down by 39? The better coach and team won. The two biggest games on the year and your embarrassed in both of them. You have 2 of the best players in the country. No national championship. No sec title. You’ll be lucky to win a state title. Moreno and probably Stafford gone after the bowl game. Looks like a rebuilding year next year.

Well, let’s just cut to the chase here. No Gator bashing, no over the top comments about the UGA coaches - just the truth. HOWEVER, there is a major problem with the Dawgs that I have been witnessing as an avid Dawg fan since Richt showed up. I like Mark, he is a solid coach, but he is far from one of the best. When almost every game (win or lose) your team makes key fundamental mistakes, makes penalty after penalty especially on big plays, loses the big games in embarrassing ways, the team plays with perceived little passion, can’t score in the red zone, and the play calling is suspect in key moments…..well, this is a coaching problem. I’m not calling for RIcht’s head, but the Dawg nation better putter a fire under Richt and the coaching staff, or yes there needs to be changes.
Bobo, Rodriguez, and RIcht are all to blame and some coaching decisions just boggle the mind. The on-side kick? Even if we got the ball, why would you risk putting your team in a position to lose like that after they fought through bad calls to come back and get in the game? I don’t know where to start, but unless there are some significant changes in some fundamental areas, then UGA will be an underperformer for the foreseeable future.
Dawg fans, you who are making excuses and living in denial, well you better wake up or just get comfortable being 2nd or 3rd in SEC East year after year, and being a Top 15 team.

The end of the game was when georgia called a play action fake to king right after taking Moreno out of the game. I knew the second I saw Stafford pull the ball away and turn to throw that the game was over. Not one player on the defense or in the stadium for that matter was fooled. That DB for Florida certainly knew exactly what was coming. I have to question that call because King didn’t get the ball once in the game that I can recall so I am sure the defense wasn’t buying that he was getting the handoff there.

Thoughts on today:
Florida is the best team in the country. Hate to say it, but it’s true. The Gators clearly outplayed Georgia today, and seemed to want it more from the opening whistle.
Georgia will never win a national title as long as Willie Martinez is the DC. Unfortunately, Mark Richt is such a nice guy that he hates to make coaching personnel changes. Perhaps this loss will make Mark consider a coaching change, but I doubt it.
The refs blew some calls today, for sure. They missed a number of roughing the passer calls against Stafford (who was hit late all day long), blew several holding calls (including one on Haden’s key interception that allowed him to make the play), and blew the call on Mark Richt’s challenge that kept Florida’s first TD drive alive. Penn Wagers and Florida both got their revenge today. That being said, the better team won today. The refs made a difference, but not 39 points’ worth.
Matt Stafford is NOT ready for the NFL. He still throws into coverage, and still misses open receivers repeatedly.
The multiple injuries this year are starting to show up on both sides of the ball for Georgia. It’s in games like this one that you miss a Jeff Owens or a Trinton Sturdivant.
The Dawgs will finish 11-2 again after beating UK, Auburn and Tech and whoever they play in the Cap One bowl. That’s not a bad season, but not what it could have been.
Georgia will be even better next season. Unfortunately, so will Florida.

Moultrie Dawg,
I can’t argue with anything you have said either. I would much rather have Tebow leading my team ahead of Stafford. I just know that Stafford grades out better to pro scouts…and to be honest I can’t or won’t blame either he or moreno for going pro when they are guaranteed millions. Any of us would take that opportunity.

Can CMR bring it next season and seek revenge and find a way to the SEC champ game?? So sad when you realize Stafford/Moreno havenb’t even tasted the SEC game yet!!!!! CMR please step down and let Muschamp have the job, you are a much better offensive coordinator from the big glass booth upstairs (plus I am sick and tired of his odd/retarded looking butt cut hairstyle!!! ) Maybe next year you could motivate the team and promise to shave it all off in the front if they go all the way!

You cannot play a good team and turn the ball over like Ga did today. I don’t think the d played all that bad they just played to a lot of short fields because of the turnovers. Bobo’s play calling on the first drive 2nd and 2 and try 2 trick plays . Give the ball to knowshon. Don’t let him come out of the frigging game every time we get inside the twenty. We had our chances. Penalty on the interception,missed open man in end zone,missed 2 easy field goals, and then 2 bad throws and a fumble and 2 missed calls by the ref’s Stafford is just not consistant enough. He has great recievers. We had our chance and could not get it done.

Listen, I’m happy that my Gators won convincingly, but I’m dismayed that so many are dumping on CMR and the Dawgs. Sure, it’s disappointing, but at the level of talent between teams such as Alabama, Georgia, and LSU, any team that gets a few breaks can dominate a given game. Also, even pro players don’t play to their potential every week, much less college students. Look what happened to us when we played Ole Miss. One of the reasons this is our best rivalry is that UGA is always a top quality team under CMR.

Here we go again blaming the loss on youth and injuries when all we’ve heard preseason was the depth and our defense and speed. The problem is simple folks and its coaching. Willie is absolutely over his head and he may understand the defense he employs, he just don’t understand and recognize how to make adjustments. That goes for Mike Boo Boo too. This was another very humiliating loss for our program.

Man…I don’t think UF could get any better than they looked today against us.
UGA will be better next year. The O Line will be mature. AJ Green will know the offense better. Richard Samuel will be ready for prime time.
Our defense though…I’m not so sure about. Hopefully, our incoming freshmen will help. Based on how we’ve played this year…I think we are two years away from seriously contending.
However…change a few coaches and we might contend next year. That is a big IF. Sure, we can win ten games, but to seriously contend for the SECC…we need to lose a coach or two.

Hey buck up people, we suffered thru down years too.
As for why the game is played in the Gator bowl, a lot of Gator fans were complaining bitterly about that years ago. when the contract came up for renewal, back in the Spurrier days. At the time Georgia was all for playing there since it was supposedly a major recruiting game for North Florida HS players that Georgia lusted after. Georgia is just too small compared to Florida as a recruiting ground and unless you can pull in outside players you’ll never compete nationally.
Florida can and does support three National level teams based on the large population base. Miami, UF and FSU. Just look at what happened to Spurrier after he left the happy hunting grounds and went to an even smaller recruiting state. Dead on Arrival. Back in the days of Vince Dooley he regularly raided Florida for players since there were no National level teams in the state then. No there are three and both Georgia and Alabama have been struggling ever since.

Ga Fans:
I never understood as to why Richt did not use Moreno more? Yes, the first drive for GA sucked, but, c’mon..Moreno is your bread and butter that helps Stafford..
Honestly, all Florida fans were optimistic after the second drive in 3rd quarter…
Like I said, Stafford burned the corners quite a few times but with a medoicre running game, he/Richt/Bobo pushed it too much..
I cannot say how bad GA’s exectution was today. We know GA has so much talent..is this the last year for Mark Richt? I heard rumors that TT coach is being interviews for GA position?
Sorry guys…No point rubbing it in. Your game execution did not challenge Florida a whole lot, from an average football fan
One thing is for sure..you guys do not need Mark Bradley on AJC at all.
You need Tony Barnhart who has journalistic integrity, a GA at heart, and will call for GA when he personally believes GA is going to win based on statistics, not on bias at all.

UGA seems to be heading down the same path of FSU. For years FSU recruited top notch athletes regardless of character. Just like FSU, UGA has done the same with similar results in that there are numerous off field problems with arrests, suspensions, etc. Like FSU of the 90s, UGA now is one of the most penalized, undisciplined teams out there. Some of these stud athletes just can’t be coached. Consider recruiting quality athletes with character, even if it means passing on a 5 star athlete and settling for a 3 star player.

Another thing I have to comment on: I loved it when GA scored that touchdown in the 4th quarter and they showed a FL player applauding. Then, the sportscasters said that someone had to applaud because all the GA fans had left. If you leave the game before it’s over, you ain’t a real fan. I don’t care how badly your team is playing, you DON’T leave the game. Why pay all that money to go there and cheer your team on and then leave before it’s over? If you left the game you ain’t a fan.

Why is it that everybody seems to keep placeing all the blame on the co ordinaters and gives Right a pass; he is the one that always comes up with the bonehead plays such as the on side kick today,running one play against Auburn with a first and goal and 16 seconds left in the game, getting nailed and the clock runs out and losses the game. Early last year in a game with a fourth and four situation woth the ball in his own territory, he goes for a first down instead of punting, gives up the ball which leads to a touchdown and looses the game.These are just a few examples which are typical of his style. Richt is as big of a joke as a coach as Donnan was. I do give him credit for being willing to take the blame for these kind of calls but he still seams to be always learning these costly lessons on the job. For two and one half million dollars a year he should be for more advanced.

90-30…that is the cumulative score of the Bama & FL vs. UGA. Pathetic. This has little to do with the ‘inexperienced’ offense line nor does it have to do with other injuries. We have the talent without those things. We were simply beaten soundly by both teams and should be ranked somewhere around #20 but really should be much better than that. I’m not sure where the blame goes but clearly all parties didn’t believe in this program. Look at the undefeated, untied Bulldogs of ‘80. We did not have the overall talent and we not only BEAT all of our opponents we beat a MUCH bigger and physically stronger team in Notre Dame for the NC. We had the coaching staff and the spirit to win. We had discipline, focus, drive, and determination. I see not much of those great qualities in this team. I am pretty disappointed in these DAWGS for the lack of focus, execution, and drive that has clearly not been showing. There are so many examples of this I cannot begin to begin…Nuff said.

This year’s team has shown that when faced with adversity, they do not have the intestinal fortitude to fight through it and overcome. A lot has to do with being a young football team. We have 2 very winnable games coming up and then 2 weeks to prepare for the triple option of Tech and the eventual 8 in a row.

We’ll be in the league with Auburn, Tennessee, UCLA, Texas, Oklahoma, but we will not be in the league with Florida (two recent national championships), LSU (two national championships in the last 4 years), Ohio State, Michigan and USC, etc. The will probably expand the stadium, ticket prices will rise, we will get Game Day a couple of times, but we will not be in the top tier of college football teams. It’s a good record but it is not top tier.
We have the physical facilities, the recruitment, the fan base, the financial resources, the history, to be a top tier team, but there is one thing missing. You figure it out based on what I just said.
Love Mark Richt, classy guy, good PR man, talented coach. But he is not Urban Meyer, not Nick Saban, not Pete Carrol, and despite the score, not Les Miles.
He’s Dooley. Good teams, a few SEC championships, one National Championship in 20+ years and a nice garden.
On to Kentucky. But we’ll have to hold our breath, just like we did in the Dooley years.

Hey Palmetto Bug; I already stated that we’ve got a long way to go. We all have bad seasons…Lord knows that GA has had more than their share!
I really had to hoot when that FG attempt bounced off the goal post. I laughed so loudly that I scared my son.
Up here on Rocky Top, things are looking pretty bleak right now…kind of like a Coldplay song. But we’ll get a new coach and we’ll be back, just wait.

Woah! Pete in Fort Myers. Lighten up man. You are now ashamed to be a grade of uga? Because of the performance of a group of 18-22 year olds on a Saturday afternoon? Dude, that is a bit much to place on this game don’t ya think? I completely understand you are goingto catch a heck of a lot of grief being a uga fan in Ft. Meyers after this thumping, but that is utterly ridiculous.
Now if you were the uga fan that was mocking the UF fans last year, you just have a bit of your own medicine to swallow and that you deserve. You need to learn to win and loose with class. That is a characteristic that is probably foreign to you, but one you need to embrace. Now swallw your medicine and hold your head up.

You Dawg fans on here talking about Richt being fired?? Are you people out of your minds? Coach Richt is the best thing that has happend to this program in years. The Dawgz day will come, it just wasn’t today. This is not our year plain and simple. It is a disadvantage for Georgia to ever be ranked #1. We may win the national championship again one year if we start out ranked like 15th or 16th and aren’t talked about at all. That way our players can keep their minds on winning games and not all the media hype. Dawgz won’t lose another game this year, but Stafford better come back next year and prove that he is the championship calibre quaterback that I know he is.

We have a tremendously talented team without coaching. We will lose at least one or maybe more games, and it will not be due to the refs. Tech is going to smash Georgia. Perhaps Auburn, maybe Kentucky. Who else is there? We are not good. We could be, but we are not.

Correction - Only LSU has two BCS National Championship Waterford football trophies, Florida only has one. And for those that are complaining about the officiating, ask LSU about it. We won the BCS NC last year as the most penalized team in the country and I’m going to guess one of the teams that had no calls against the other team when one was needed as in holding calls and late hits and in two games, they WERE game changing. We’ve had some this year in our two big losses that would have tied the score had the “fake” penalty not been called but apparently, only certain teams are allowed to complain about bad officiating. You made have had some bad officiating tonight but with the final score, they didn’t matter! Of course, we all know the S.E.C. officiating leaves much to be desired and it’s like they have bets on the games so they either don’t call things that should be called or they call something as when LSU played Auburn a few years ago that had never been called before and hasn’t been called since and was actually taken out of the rule book if it was even there. THAT was a game changing penalty and was never truly explained and the explanation on the field was the opposite of what was written in the paper the next day. so WHEN is the S.E.C. going to stop hiding behind their standard “We stand behind our officials” and start sanctioning them or suspending them as they do immediately in other conferences?

What is the top-ranked ACC team ?
Trick question.
There is not 1.
Nothing went our way for our boys. I said we would lose 2 games this season before it started.
Next year is year number 20. We have Won 3 games. That’s NOT a Rivalry and you know it.
49-10.
Florida will jump to Number 2 and Alabama will jump to Number 1, and may the best team Win.
Congratulations to them both.
I told you Texas beat 2 teams who still today have beat no one.
Oklahoma has Won 5 of the last 8 Big XII Championships, and this year will be 6 of the last 9, and Oklahoma has Lost 4 Consecutive BCS Bowl Games so that the Big XII does not even have a Winning Record in BCS Bowl Games either while The SEC is undefeated in Title Games and 11-4 in BCS Bowl Games.
The Big XII is a joke with all the Coaches out there and all the sportswriters out there all, everyone of them, voting for just the Big XII with the Big XII All-Time 42-44 Bowl Record.
And, everyone knows that the miserable Big XII has a Losing Record in BCS Title Games just exactly as the Big 10 does.

Urban Meyer just killed the Bulldawg nation. We will NEVER EVER be able to avenge that. It sucks, but it permanently puts the Dawgs below Florida. That loss also set the program back 2 or 3 years and probably begun the end of the Mark Richt era. We won’t recover until 5 years from now when no player on the team will have been a part of it.
Sad but true.

SEC Fan - you must have a “slit”. My wife tells me the same thing. The truth is, I am a die-hard bulldawg fan and always will be. To all of the bloggers that question the loyalty of the rest of us who are being critical (Hunk Erdown etc)drink the koolaid all you want. I bet you supported Donnan and Goff too. Richt is (was) supposed to be the guy to bring UGA back into the national picture, and he has. But someone please tell me why we are losing the “big” games? LSU got in the national championship with two losses last year, because they were in every game down to the end! We’ve gotten blown off the field when someone punches us in the mouth. My contention is that we have a serious coaching problem with our program. I’m not just talking X’s and O’s I’m talking about attitude and spirit. Our players are undisciplined (penalties all season) and unprepared for the big games. I tip my hat to Martinez (who I think is a major probem), the D actually didnt do that bad. The ref’s missed some calls and we slowed FLA down, for the most part. Any realistic Dawg fan knew that we wouldnt stop them, but hopefully contain them. We did that. Our offense, our high-octane offense, crapped the bed. We had some good drives but fell apart in the Red zone. Where was Brannon Southerland? Why not let him pound it in there? Horrible execution and poor game plan equals trouble, and when we realized it, we panicked (onside kick).
Its time to take this team to the next level. We have the recruits, we just need the right coaching staff (Alabama this year). I’m not calling for anyones head, but it wouldnt bother me to see some seats get moved around. These kids were not prepared..period. Alot of us have high standards for this program and rightfully so. It’s ok to lose a game but its not ok to roll over and die. I bleed Red and Black but I’m tired of this shat!

At this point I still love my dawgs! I couldn’t care less about the next couple of games until TECH.
I’m looking forward to crushing them and rubbing it in their faces.
As for “calling out” those who are not happy - leave them alone. They have EVERY right to say what they feel. Good or bad, agree or not, it isn’t up to any of you to tell others they are losers for their opnions - it only shows YOU to be the real loser (well, you and TECH).

Georgia will lose 3 out of the final 4 this year. I’m telling you, this is a loss that you will never recover from. As I said, Urban Meyer just killed our program for at least 5 years. He took away our pride. A man without pride is pretty much useless and only good for being henpecked by a female.
Kentucky will beat us, Auburn probably will beat us and Yech scares the heck out of me.
We will then go to the Gaylord bowl and play Virginia or go to the Independence bowl and play someone like Kansas or go to the Outback bowl and play Northwestern.

Well, first off, Tech fans have certainly showed us all what class they have on this blog.
That aside, there are some serious issues that Georgia needs to fix before they ever hope to be considered among the elite teams in CFB.
Hire a serious defensive coordinator. Willie Martinez is DC only because Vangorder left for the pros. He should have never been considered for the job. Need proof of his inept abilities? Tennessee 2007. Alabama 2008. Florida 2008. LSU 2008.
Keep players from watching/listening to/reading the media as much as possible. It’s not realistic to put blinders on them, but the more that Stafford and Moreno hear how great they are from the “experts”, the harder it is for them to be disciplined.
Hire a new strength & conditioning coach. Have you seen a weaker bunch of players on a team with as much potential as this?
Continue to recruit great players at quarterback, running back and wide receiver. These areas have gotten progressively better in the Mark Richt era.
Commit to recruiting the best defensive ends, best cornerbacks, best kickers and best offensive lineman that you can possibly find. These areas have gotten progressively worse in the Mark Richt era.
Give Knowshon Moreno more carries. It is inexcusable that a talent like Moreno is not allowed to carry the ball more often than he does.
Quit trying to be “cute”. Mike Bobo is a solid offensive coordinator, but he is far from great. He attempts too often to be flashy in his play calling. Do what works best: (a) give Moreno the ball at least 30 times a game, and (b) throw the ball to Green and Massaquoi as often as you can.
Few people want to see Georgia do well like I do, but I refuse to get my hopes up as long as this team continues to underachieve.
Now, let’s get our standard 9-10 wins and mid-major bowl victory.
And now for my favorite line ever…
Just wait till next year…

OBSERVATIONS: Most UGA fans lack any real objectivity about their team. To wit: 1) After every loss (particularly to UF) they immediately go about putting their house of cards together convincing themselves they really didn’t lose. i.e. “It was bad refs”, “if it weren’t for a missed field goal” “If we didn’t fumble” “We didn’t get beat we beat ourselves” (49-10, bad calls? You beat yourselves? Really?) 2) “Our program/head coach is so classy” Did UGA fans not see Moreno run over to UF’s Defensive Coordinator and slap him on the butt and bob his head at him after one of his few long runs? Classy? How about some discipline? Think UF won’t be up for the game for another decade after those antics?
Anyway, it’s entertaining to watch. The old silver britches are now the black out thugs and they can’t keep the rabble pointed in the right direction long enough to win the big one.

This was coaching. Richt, Bobo and Martinez, the whole staff has not prepared this team to win and have made excuses about it. There seems to be very little accountability. If you can’t execute when you are up by 14, you will be likely to make the same mistakes when the game is on the line.

Come on people. Dawg fans are so fickle. Before the season we all knew that we would probably have one or two losses this year with the schedule that we have. Take a look at our roster. We have very few seniors and a ton of freshman and sophmores. We are still a very young football team not to mention that we lost two of our best linemen, a starting linebacker and several backups for the year.
I will admit, two blowout losses sting and I am tired of excessive penalties, dropped passes, and lack of scoring inside the red zone but CMR is still a fine coach and he will get us our national championship within the next 2 or 3 years. Also this is only Mike Bobo’s 2nd year as OC and he is still learning.
There is not a college team in the United States of America that would beat LSU and Florida back to back this year so be patient. When we finally get our Nat. Champ. Dawg fans will say that it was worth the wait and that CMR is the best coach in the land. (But then if we don’t win it every year after that fans will be upset and ready to fire again.)

I can take getting beat by a good AlABAMA or FLA team but not being blown out like we were. Sorry, that is unacceptable and anyone who believes otherwise is smoking dope. It is definitely not because of a lack of talent that we got beat today. It was bad coaching that didn’t fire up the players. WE had a chance to take the momentum when we were 1st down at their 10 yard line and ridiculous play calling sucked the life out of us.
How does a team with a 3 year starting QB with the best arm in college football with the best freshman receiver in the nation, with Knowshon Moreno, with experienced Massaquai averaging 38 points a game, not even put up ONE TOUCHDOWN???
2 missed field goals 1 dropped possible T.D. pass to Harris 1 missed T.D.pass to Moreno 1 Quacky on side kick when we didn’t even need to take the momentum 1 Moreno fumble 2-3 Stafford interceptions 1 hands to the face mask by a defensive lineman nullifying an interception several illegal procedures THE #1 defensive focus was stop TEbow from running at will. I never saw him get hit by any of our guys until he was several yards past the line of scrimmage and no one ever gave him a good pop. not once! TERRIBLE

we have none. i am not terribly surprised by the outcome, but the difficulty i have is that the same coach that ordered a celebration (to elicit enthusiasm) can not muster any of his own. the post game comments are comical. when did it become a prerequisite that a coach is neutered after a loss. The post game commentary was very uninspired. As much as I hate to admit it, when tebow came out and apologized for the loss to ole miss, I was impressed. All we can drum up is complacency and I am worn out. Can we please get a player or coach to verbalize their displeasure with a loss and how the team played. i am certainly not a coach, but will someone please explain to me how we can only put up three points(starters) with a potential 1st round draft pick as qb, the best rb in the nation and a receiving duo that is one of the best in the ncaa (I understand that the o-line is young, but this was not their loss). I am so sick of coach speak, will someone please show some fire. Yes they had a right to all three time outs, but at least acknowledge that he was making a point. Maybe richt needs to write a book in the third person as well.

First I want to say congrats to the Gator Nation, they took care of buisness and capitalized on our errors today.
To all the Ga fans. We have had three big games this year ALABAMA,LSU,FLORIDA that have had any real importance on the national stage, we were handled in two of the three. I have never seen a team so talented unravel so quickly as we did today and against Alabama. We simply did not execute, and beat ourselves. Thats right I said that we beat ourselves! Three intereptions, 1 fumble, three missed feild goals, and maybe the worst call I have ever seen in a college football game ie the onside kick in the first half. The lines played well, the defense never had a chance, we gave Florida a short field all day. We deserve what we get! For true GA fans we still have alot to play for, beat Auburn and GA Tech. GO 10-2 and see what happens, more than likely we will end up in the capital one bowl, and we will beat up on whoever they throw at us. It will not ease the pain of this loss. Thats the great thing and the worse thing about college football, one game can make or reak a season. We had our chance and s** the bed. Lets take it like men and learn from our mistakes.
To all of the GA TECH fans that love to post on this blog, you have yours comming. We have your number like FLA has ours. We will beat you down this year like we always do. Go play your weak ACC schedule and come talk to us in November.

It’s a shame, but this game is tough on delicate psyches. Penn Wagers, head referee, and his crew once again delivered a joke of a game. The blown instant replay spot that kept UF’s drive alive, missed defensive holding, missed offensive pass interference/holding, and others, but these were the most critical. Why is this crew allowed to continue officiating after blowing an application of the rules in the UT game, and their horrendous performance in this same game last year? No, referees do not lose games, but the cumulative effect of every single call going the other way or just outright ignored is damaging.
Also damaging — Bobo’s red zone play-calling is more like Twilight Zone play-calling. Martinez’s likewise. LSU’s screenpass last week…so obvious. Tebow draw play? Shocking. What team is he preparing for week after week?

Yeah UGA fans R always unrealistic about there teams. Remember last year no injuries 2 key players this year not so lucky. Eventually that stuff catches up with a team that isnt as deep as eveyrone pretended it was. Now having said that. The game 2day was closer than the score indicated. Florida was still gonna win it but they got big help from UGA & the refs. On side kick 14-3, Chip Chandler worst starting tight end under Richt signature suckage in the end zone 14-3, Missed pass interference #5 Florida 21-3, Missed Pass interfernce #9 Florida 28-3, and finally unforced fumble by #24 Georiga 35-3. Everything after that was garbage time for both teams. Florida is not as dominant as Bama. Bama is not as dumb as UGA(Coaches & Players).Uga is not as Tuff as Bama. Bama over Florida SEC Championship. Moreno please turn pro berore you get killed. He’s gotta make somebody miss in the backfield 2 much. Thats no way 2 live as a RB.

Payback is a b***. Thank Mark Richt for giving Florida the desire to work hard. Can someone interview Richt for any more inspiritional tactics? Oh yeah, he got his wish. Ga/Fla is a “re-newed” rilvary, although not in the way he conceived the “team celebration” last year. He seems to operate as though other coaches can’t recruit talent, can’t coach football basics, and can’t motivate players as well as he can. Well, if you can’t run with the big dogs, er, big gators, hehe, it’s better to stay on the porch. Guess ole Markie boy never was told!

If I were a talented Dawg on this team I’d be pushing for the entire coaching staff’s heads. Richt is a nice guy, an excellent recruiter and a mediocre coach. He continues to make boneheaded calls. He acts like he’s still learning on the job. He says he’s a CEO. If so, he’s av overpaid CEO. We need coaching. This terrific raw talent needs coaching. Isn’t all this so very apparent by now. Fire the CEO and get me a coach and coaching staff.
There will be no national championship with Mark Richt. Never.

I’ve been a Dawg fan ever since I was 9 years old (1977)and have faithfully pulled for UGA year in and year out. Besides the 1982 National Championship game, this was to me by far the most dissapointed loss I’ve ever witness as a Dawg fan. We were FINALLY supposed to compete for the National Championship after sooo many years of getting our tails kicked and watching UF, Tennesee, and LSU win Championships.
I witnessed us have so many off-field problems before the season even started, and now to watch us come out and play imtmidated against a team you should have punched in the mouth again (forget Urban and how ticked off he was about last year,….UGA should have taken it to him again!!), but I guess this is what Georgia Football is.
It took me a very long time to get it, but I GIVE UP!! Bye Bye Dawgs. You’ve lost this person as a fan!! NO WAY you walk into this game and play that poorly. Do you (UGA players and coaches) have any respect for yourself or the program or the fans that pull so hard for you??? Best of Luck!..I’m afraid it will take Luck if you ever win anything!

10-2 would be great, and it is not a foregone conclusion by any means. I think what we’re seeing here is a program that had no idea how to deal with such high expectations. The two losses show a bunch that either doesn’t show up or wilts when the going gets tough or both. The dumb penalties and classless behavior are inexcusable, and I think it slipped their minds on the way to the trophy table you have to show up, play smart and not quit. They have not handled the hype. They have stunk it up when it really counted, and this team will never be considered great no matter what happens from here on out.

What can be said for total humiliation? What? Well, the dawgs showed who and what they are today. We got a taste in the Bama game, and it tasted bad, real bad. Then, things perked up. But there, back there somewhere in the back of our minds was that dark feeling, that sooner or later the dawgs bad habits would rear its ugly head again, and probably at the most of inoportune times. And, to our dismay, today was the day. Anything bad that could happen did….. Too many bad plays, dropped passes, poor coverage, the list goes on and on and on. I think the dawg nation deserves to see at least 2, maybe 3 pink slips handed out tomorrow morning, or at the latest, Monday morning. The dawg nation should NOT TOLERATE this level of incompetence. The fans all over, wherever, deserved better than what we saw today. The whole darn thing was a pitiful exhibition. PITIFUL.

Hey dawginduluth. Who you gonna hire. Think you can pull Meyer from Florida or Saban from Alabama. How about an unproven assistant. Maybe all you people in favor of firing Richt will get your wish and we will hire somebody who carries us back to the days of 7 and 5 or 8 and 4. We were one game away from playing in a Nat. Champ. game in two of his 7 seasons thus far and he is coaching in the SEC. I don’t think that’s too bad.

To the Dawg Faithful
1) Calling for Richt’s head is crazy. He is a very good coach who is young and more than likely will become great.
2) The breaks did not go your way today. You had some tough calls, untimely penalties, and killer turnovers. Tough to overcome those things when……..
3) Florida executed flawlessly in the red zone. The Gator defense played its best game of the year. It could have been worse for Georgia if some of the holding your offensive line was doing on many pass plays was called.
4) Our Rivalary is the best one in the nation. It is a major conference game, played in a beautiful setting. And now there is bad blood between our coach’s. I think they even hate each other worse than the fans do.
5) Your season aint over. You can easily be 10-2 with wins over Auburn and Tech.

That’s not the end of the discussion. There is no proof that Tim Tebow is a better college Quarterback. You don’t even call him a quarterback. He’s not.
As a Starter : Stafford beat Final AP Poll Number 9 Auburn 35-17. Stafford beat Final AP Poll Number 13 Florida 42-30. Stafford beat Final AP Poll Number 15 Auburn 45-20. Stafford beat Final AP Poll Number 19 Hawaii 41-10. Stafford beat current BCS Rank Number 19 LSU 52-38.
That’s half a dozen Wins over teams who ended the season ranked in the Final AP Poll Top 19 teams in the nation.
He is a Quarterback.
As a Starter : Tebow beat only Final AP Poll Number 12 vols 59-20 last season, and this season only current BCS Rank Number 19 LSU 51-20.
That’s because he is NOT a Quarterback.

The biggest loser was that ugly motha fraker Brandon Spikes. He faked being “pushed” down by Moreno late in the game and acted like he’s having a seizure, trying to cheat and get Moreno and UGA called for an unsportmanship conduct penalty.
I guess the TOOL urban cryer coaches some “outstanding young christian man” like that to cheat and act like little girls infront of the refs late in the game with a huge lead?
I’ll be cheering for Brandon Spikes to break his leg from now on every time I see FLA play a game for the rest of the season.
Urban Cryer is a TOOL, that is the truth. NO other coach in the SEC likes that angry looking, mean spirited man. No other fans outside of FLA fans will ever have anything nice to say about the way he coaches games or his players conduct themselves.
In an interview after the game on the local CBS affiliate here in ATL, they interviewed Lewis Murhpy, and the guy coudn’t express himself. He sounded as stupid as someone who hasn’t take a test since the 10th grade. I’m sure he’s got “rally girls” doing his homework, and teachers at FLA giving players passing grades, so their dome a&&es can be on the team.
At least Moreno, Mo Mass and Co can talk and express themselves in english without using the word MAN every 2 seconds.
FLA - Urban Cryer - Biggest TOOL in the SEC coaching ranks.
Ask around the SEC - Everyone except Spurrier likes Mark Richt. Not the same for Cryer.
Yes it matters, b/c it’s not all about winning and losing a fraking football game, it’s how you do it!
I stand by coach Ritch, I will always be a UGA fan, through the wins and the loses. True fans have to support the team no matter what, you may disagree with coaching, etc, but in the end of the day, support our players and the university.
Go Dawgs, finish the season strong! It’s not over yet. Still can beat Auburn (always a good rivalry game), hated Tech, and probably a bowl game after against a big ten team (I sincerely hope we get Ohio State - so we can expose them as the fraud that they are)

Our program is looking very foolish with all the silly tricks and stunts that now have really back fired on our program.

I guess there are a few teams that can pass and run the ball in the SEC. But if I were coaching at Georgia, I would only recruit 375 lb. linemen for my lines. This is a public warning to the coaching staff at UGA. Quit messing around with ACC football ideas and get to the root of your problem. You are not consistant with your running game and will not commit to the running game and he who does not run the ball in the SEC loses. End of story. Georgia was doing good last year when they just mostly ran the ball. Sorry folks, football is not rocket science. This is the smashmouth football conference—-not the ACC. Wake up or get out of town.

I said UGA would lose 2 games this season before it started.
That was also when I said this would be Phillip Fulmer’s last season for the vols.
The Bulldogs are probably the highest ranked 2-loss team about 12 in the BCS Rankings.
The vols remain the worst team in The SEC.
The vols are now 3-6, after the 27-6 Shellacking handed to Fulmer by Spurrier’s South Carolina squad we beat, who I said would be 9-4.
Did I mention UGA Beat the vols 26-14.
Do you still support Phillip Fulmer, who has NOT BEEN RANKED AHEAD OF COACH RICHT EIGHT (8) CONSECUTIVE SEASONS AND COUNTING IN THE FINAL AP POLL , or not ?

And, if the crocodile fans with their quarterback who said he grew up in the neighborhood surrounding the Gator Bowl think he proved he is a great quarterback tonight, you are out of your minds.
There is a consolation to all this.
Matthew Stafford nor Knowshon Moreno have any business taking their NFL Draft position and leaving early.

It sucks to lose to a team that you are capable of defeating. I think we are all suffering the let down of being over ranked. Of course, when the dawgs were national contenders, they had a stouter O-line, a couple of more line backers, and a couple of more defensive ends. Oh yeah, and more health at tight end.
All that considered, at worst it should have been UGA 9, UF 7 at half. If Chandler/Stafford were a little better coordinated 16-7. If refs didn’t give TEbow a fist down, 16-0. It would have been an entirely different game.
Georgia moved the ball well and did a good job stopping Florida. The game changing play was the on side kick. Not only did it give UF the ball on the 40, it said we are not man enough to beat you straight up. Bad decision. Stupid risk.
YOung players, tough schedule. Next season really depends on the next three games. Will UGA finish the drill or fold? Let’s get behind the team, dog fans. Let the gators flap their jaws and kiss our arses. UGA players and coaches still need to apologize to the fans for not executing in the most important game of the season.

Football is a funny game. As long as Georgia is winning an d on top, we praise them. But when they lose, we look to behead them. Let’s stop making excuses about the officiatng. The Bulldogs lost and Florida was the better team Saturday. Mark Richt is a good recruiter. There is a difference, great coaches beat teams like Florida and Alabama when they have to get to the national championship game and they want to win it. Personnally, I like and admire coach Richt. But in the SEC, there is no time for coaches to be lambs. You’ve got to come out as a LION and take no prisoners. Georgia did not come out with the same energy and motivation like they had in last years game. If you are going to be penalized for being rough, then so be it, but send a message to your opponent.

A couple of comments - Those ripping on Stafford are sure going to miss him when he’s gone. He may not please you with everything he does, but because of the rookie salary cap coming in 2010, he’ll be out of here next year.
As far as Stafford not being NFL quality. If you think that, you have no idea what the NFL is about. McCoy, Tebow, Harrell, and Bradford will do nothing on Sundays; just like Zeier, Schueler, Greene, etc.. All of them were nice college QBs, but not Sunday players. Stafford is a late first rounder, (he’s number one on Minnesota’s draft board right now). Obviously, Moreno will be in the draft too, but his speed is questionable (3rd round at best).

i said after the alabama lost that if moreno doesn’t get 25 to 30 carries the rest of the way that we will loss 3 games this season.
so far moreno is averaging around 15 carries a game. mark richt will never win a championship and this is why.
1 he is a poor game manager(example)before half time with less than 3min left, we had the ball on their 10 yd line but clueless mark richt throws a pass instead of keeping the ball in moreno’s hands to eat up the clock. 2 he is a poor stratagist(example) moreno has more yards per carry when the ball is pitched to him sideline to sideline, but clueless richt continue to run him up the middle knowing full well that our offensive line is still inexperience and weak. the running gain opens up the passing gain, but clueless richt throws the ball on every play even when moreno is picking up big yards. thank God that clueless mark richt wasn’t the coach when hearshel walker was playing because we would not have won that championship. 3 he is clueless(example) moreno is the main reason why we won those games last season, but clueless mark richt seem to believe that stafford is the reason.washaun ealey if u read these message boards don’t go to ga, because if u do u will not get the carries u will need to get the recongnition for the nfl. go to ga tech where they are on the rise. clueless mark richt has kill moreno chance for the heisman.

It amazes me everytime some other team other than Georgia get’s on a dawgs blog site to spew all there stupid pathetic comments. I am a Dawgs fan, but also an SEC Fan and plain and simple, The Gators Won. They simply beat us at every facet of the game, but that does not give anyone the rights to come on here and start talking trash about our team or how great there team is. You guys must live a pretty pathetic life when you resort to name calling, ( how old are you ). I know I will get a ha,ha or your momma comment but at least I know I don’t hinge my life on what my team does or does not do.

I’ve always been a Richt fan through thick and thin but that onside kick call was about the dumbest call I have ever witnessed in my life. It gave the momentum to Florida for good. The dawgs were moving the ball well up to that point and were totally in the game but you could just see the air go out after that play. Stick to the basics Mark, you have a team that could have run with the Gators but you took their spirit away early by making them play from behind.

Once again, the UGA team shows it’s true colors.

If the shoe were one the other foot, you would have done the same thing;you know it & the fans know it. Where was your star player No-Shawn? What a joke he is!!! He has maybe one or two plays & then whimps out especially if ya’ll are losing!! And you think he is Heisman material? God, wake up!!!! Ya’ll just need to stop finding excuses for losing & blame yourselves for the beating you got in Florida…plain & simple…a BEATING! Your coach is true to form too; he can’t blame himself for not having control over his team; he blames everyone else for the lose instead of HIM. What a joke this team has been…lets see, how many players have been let got for “violations” against the team?

Guess its time to play Cox now huh, At least he can run—and thats if the master play caller has it in his guts to call running plays.

They might want to but an apb out for some of those 400lb white guys that Texas Tech and Texas has so that they might even call some real running plays—-but thats right——we are talking about reality aren’t we? Speaking of reality, Tech is smelling blood now after that stunt in Florida. Georgia may just be stuck with being a team that beats Georgia Tech most of time. Reality is not fun at all sometimes.

Why are people talking about firing WM? The defense did not play that bad. Every year his defenses are ranking in the top 15 and every year people want him fired. It’s hard to keep a team out of the end zone when you keep spotting them the ball on our side of the field. The one that looks like he’s not ready for prime time is BOBO. I’m tired of games when we get in the red zone and end up scratching our heads thinking “why the heck did he call that?”. For all the talk by Stafford after the Alabama game saying I should not have been pressing the ball down field, he tried to press the ball down the field. Also, I wish Knownshon would jump to the NFL. We don’t need a RB that has become a prima donna that takes himself out of a series after 4-5 runs just when he’s getting the defense on their heels. What happened to the Knowshon that carried the ball last year about 30 times a game and ran over people in the process and wore them down? I think in last years game he had 30-35 carries for 188 yards. He only had 17 in this game. He must be trying to save himself for the NFL now.

I’ve literally lost count on the Sunday after the Jax game of the numbers of years that UGA fans conclude their “school” lost due to factors other than their own poor play or their opponent’s superior play and game plan. It was a UF timeout against Zeier’s team, a face-mask call, UGA’s injuries, officiating, Jacksonville is a bad site for the game, etc., etc,. etc.
Face facts: No UGA national championship in the modern era (UF has two under two different coaches within a single decade). Drastically over-hyping yourselves at the end of last season and the beginning of this one (take note of the quality programs; you won’t hear them do this). Top recruits and NFL prospects (who say they’ve gotten over the fear and intimidation of this series but, as Spurrier always said, somehow under-achieve at game time). And, a second-tier coach whose single greatest innovation last year was a deliberate penalty.
Do you all realize what Richt really is? That demeanor and look on his face is not cool-headedness or peaceful serenity. He’s simply dumbfounded and clueless when going against the top-flight programs (and I’m not talking about the big Hawaii win here). Witness: an onsides call that was a high-school wrinkle at best and certainly not something that a true NC contender that believes in itself pulls early in a game.
Please help Coach Richt survive longer in his current job by reassuring yourself that this series does not count on his “road loss” record. The longer he stays at the helm of UGA, just like Goff and Donnan, the easier the SEC East will remain for the rest of us.
Also, please keep telling yourself that the post-1990 trend in the UF-UGA series is simply history going back and forth between the two teams. The longer you can’t figure out which program is fundamentally better, the more you’ll keep your coach and stay mired in mediocrity.

congrats to the gators.
urban meyer and nick saban are the two best coaches in the SEC.
meyer has his team WORK HARDER because of their loss to Georgia. 188 pushups, 42 reps in the weight room. instilling the discipline and motivation…
mark richt…he gives our team a rest because they played a hard game against lsu. he relaxes the penalty discipline standards because…well, they won a “big game.” his team gives up when fla returns an interception.
ARE WE RUNNING A FREAKING COUNTRY CLUB HERE OR A FOOTBALL PROGRAM?????
I am getting tired of CMR’s inability to consistently motivate his players to a high level of performance over the course of a season. We have had at least 1-3 brain fart games over his tenure here….these games are usually following a “big win.” Examples: UT game after our thrasing of LSU in athens, Auburn game the same year after our victory over Florida and UK. The Sugar bowl vs WVU…and the list goes on and on….
here’s a prediction…after “big wins” vs. terrible UK and Auburn teams, look for us to have a similar letdown vs. Ga Tech.
people, until our coaching staff learns to consistently motvate our players to perform at a high level for an ENTIRE SEASON…we might as well have never fired Jim Donnan.
georgia football used to be about toughness, discipline and punch you in the mouth type play. we owned florida because we were the tougher football team…both mentally and physically.
now our concerns are not toughness, discipline and perserverence…it’s offensive balance and “not giving up the big play” on defense. we see how that works.

Why all of a sudden has “Georgia only played two big games and lost”??????
It is funny how LSU was a “great team” when Florida beat them (at home) BUT when Georgia went to Baton Rouge and routed them, LSU suddenly “wasn’t a big game” or “is not a good team”
Excuse me BUT Georgia had the hardest schedule in the country coming into the season
And FLORIDA only has to play FOUR that’s right 4 AWAY GAMES!!!!!!!!!!!
Georgia had to play AT a then ranked SCarolina, fly 2000 miles to beat a then ranked Arizona State,
come home and play #2 Alabama, then play Tenn, and a then Ranked VANDY team
before going to play #11 LSU in Baton Rouge and then a top 5 Fla team
Georgia has played far more than just two big games”
Georgia will probably ranked 11-13 and if they win the rest of their games they will have a shot at an at large BCS Bowl Game (top 7 and it is mandatory)
If I were to tell you before the season about all the injuries and knowing the brutal schedule, that UGA could finish at 11-2 (counting Bowl) with an at-large BCS birth or Capital One, and finish top 5 most of you would take it!!! I would!!!!
Look at this way my fellow DAWGS…Georgia as a program has gotten to the point where we complain that 11-2 finishes and top five rankings are not good enough!!!!!! that alone should tell you where the program is!

Ga needs to recruit for integrity in addition to intelligence and football ability. Anyone breaking team rules is off the team and pays back their scholarship. Personal responsibility.
Ga needs to keep its kids from reading the papers. The local media are way too quick to blow up a good player into a major NFL prospect. This includes the national media saying Stafford is pro-level, like they did for 3 quarters last night. Moreno is good, but he is not Jesus Christ. Players cannot keep their heads in the game if they are flying in the clouds.

Any one of the above could do more with Richt’s talent pool than he’s done.

The schedule & injuries finally have taken their toll:
It kills me to say this, But…. before we can take it to the “next level” or “finish the drill” we have to show up for games of this magnitude… Vs Bama we did not, vs UF we did not.. Yes losing Sturdivant & Owens & Vance hurt us but every team loses valuable players. This is football & it’s a TEAM sport, therefore others have to step up..
I hate the pic of Knowshon fumbling and the media making it look like that one fumble cost us the game! We were down 31 at the time! Would not have mattered if he ran the ball into the endzone!!
This was the game from hell..
The refs were in fact bought!! They allowed the game to get out of hand early! And when you play a very good team you cannot over come the very good team & the refs too.. The bad calls were so obvious the commentators were in disbelief on more than a few… After we could not overcome the non call of pass interference, holding vs Rennie where Tebow was given a first down while falling a yard + short (the ball was spotted where his slide ENDED!), the personal foul that was not seen when we intercepted, the offensive pass interference for the TD.. We were in too deep a hole to overcome..
Give this about Florida - they are a very good team! Bama had better come out with gunz a blazing in the ATL or else…
That being said; About UGA: The offensive coaching staff is pathetic in the red zone. Has been for much of the season, but we were exposed in this game! The onside kick was totally stupid!! Gave UF the ball on UGA’s 41!! Our heralded kicker now cannot kick what most high schoolers drill on a regular basis! Floriduh is - and has been for 20 years - in UGA’s head.. It’s still Halloween night every time we have played the Gayturds. There is something wrong when we are in the redzone 3 straight times to open a game & come away with 3 points!! Either Bobo needs to reevaluate what he’s doing or reign in Stafford’s ability to audible at the line..
Danged, what the hell kind of pass was that to Chandler alone in the endzone!?!?! He might have dropped the pass, the way he’s done so many other times in his career, but at least throw the ball to him from 12 - 15 yards!!
The score would say otherwise, but the D actually played well. We were in bad sets a few times but the horrendous field position the were placed in is the reason… Hell, they had many scoring drives that were 1, 25, 30, 41 yds..
As much as this “PAINS” me I must admit… For a whole generation I have one word to say what we are to the Florida Gators ……. OWNED!!!
Go Dawgs!!
PS.. As “Coach Smith” above said.. ” Look at this way my fellow DAWGS…Georgia as a program has gotten to the point where we complain that 11-2 finishes and top five rankings are not good enough!!!!!! that alone should tell you where the program is!” I totally agree.. But we need to get to the next level.. Finish the Drill, Baby!!

Dont worry about the beat downs UGA has endured in their losses of late. CMR doesnt think its a real big deal. Too bad he will never win a NC at UGA. The big lie is that UGA really doesnt have the team to put away teams and score style points. Dont count the LSU win it was only a mere 14 point win.

I don’t know why most of you people use the word “hate” over a ball game. You are the same type people who become terrorists. How can you hate someone you don’t know. You are shallow, arraogant, self centered, and truely sore losers. Georgia was beaten yesterday and you are being outclssed today.
I’m a Flordia fan; however, I would support Georgia, the SEC East, and the SEC if they had not.
As to hate of the Gators and Myer, I thought the 2 time outs were extremely classic compared to the end zone fiasco of last years subtle yet firm.

Please don’t beat down CMR. He is a good coach. He had a breakdown last year and let disipline down with the dance that has lead to the team perfornance this year.
All you Dooly for eternity people just remember, in all the years at Georgia he only won 1 NC. I went to many Georgia games in his day. If it wasn’t for Urk Russell, he would have been mediocre at best. His wins were always based on Urk’s defenses. It showed when Urk left.

This happens every year except one, 1980. The press falls in love with Georgia and Georgia get nervous and loses. I can’t tell if the press is just trying to gain favor with readership or they are just that dumb, but if they would leave Georgia alone and not let the heads get quit so big this would have been a hell of a team. They get the exact players they want every year, so something has got to be either overstated about these recruits or they are not coached well when they get to Georgia. Tebow looks and has looked like the high school player he is suppose to be, Stafford does not. They beat Arizona State and a washed up LSU team and make it sound like they are beating a national powerhouse, sounds good to the readership but it make the team think it is easier than it is. They start dancing before the game even starts.

Plain and simple, the fantasy world most of you mutts have been living in went up in flames yesterday.
The era of Gator dominance is over? Hardly. It’s hard to argue with 16 of 19. Clearly, last year was a fluke.
Stafford better than Tebow? Please. He’s clearly the better NFL prospect, but who cares about the NFL. Stafford is a great thrower, and Tebow is a great quarterback. Big difference.
Moreno is a great running back, but yesterday he was contained by a great defense. Plain and simple.
And your coaching staff just can’t compete. How on earth could you think the onside kick was a good idea?
And for all of you who are blaming the refs, just give it a rest. Sure there were some bad calls, but that’s not what caused UGA to lose. A 39 point beatdown doesn’t happen because of a few bad calls.

Throw TD’s late in a game is fine. It’s the responsibility of the Defense to stop them. Especailly when it’s the Gators 2nd strings.
The entire team leaving the bench to dance like street thugs is cheating. It’s petty.
Once is within the rules.

Georgia fans, after reading all of the comments I have to say as a whole you all are a class act. I have been watching this match up every year since 1984. I wish the record was a little more even as it would make for a better game and rivalry. Regardless, win or lose, you are very gracious winners and classy when you lose (yeah there are one or two kids that just want to hate).
As for running the score up it is very unfortunate that any team that wants to go to the championship has to do it, especially if you are a one loss team. If there was a play off system then you would simply run the clock out once you got a couple of TDs ahead. Now, the only way to leap frog is to run the score up as high as you can.
I look forward to next November and I hope the Bulldogs come into Jax wanting to bloody our nose. That will make for a fun game.
Good luck to you in the rest of your season….and if you change your mind we would welcome your support should we get to play Alabama.
Peace

Congrats to the Gators for a dominating win. I think if Florida played Bama right now they would win 34-17. I just don’t see the Tide beating the Gators.
UGA obviously has a coaching problem. How can you be 7-2 with Stafford, Green, Knowshon, Allen, Curran, etc? Any successful HC has to have a strong staff. It seems to me that’s the Dawgs’ problem. They certainly got outcoached yesterday.
No way UGA goes to a BCS bowl if they win out. The only way a 2nd SEC team goes to the BCS is if an undefeated Bama team loses to FL in the SECCG.

Urban Cryer - Biggest TOOL in the SEC coaching ranks. Looks like he’s got a stick up his a&& the tne entire game. Nobody respects or likes the TOOL Cryer, must really bother GATOR nation! Love it.
What goes around comes around. Someday Tim Tebow will be gone, so will Percy Harvin, and in a few years that gimmicky “spread offense” will not work as well, and then payback will be a nightmare for him and for FLA.
Every team in the SEC owes FLA and Cryer a beatdown, and it’s coming. It may happen 5 years from now but it’s coming. I just hope you are ready for it. That humble pie, how will that taste FLA? I guess it starts with you getting a beatdown from Alabama in the SEC title game.
Meanwhile, I’m calling it right now. UGA goes 11-2 and into the top 10 at the end of the year.
All of you Tech Trolls take notice. Since your sorry a&& team can’t seem to beat UGA, you tend to bandwagon on other teams that do and show up here and talk sh*t. I guess SANTA came early for the “wreck” this year, be glad FSU gifted you the win yesterday. You were 4 years away from being known as CHOCKERS against FSU who also OWN your a&&

No dog in this fight but Rev. mark has gotten y’all about as far as he can take you. In spite of the great recruiting, his team lacks discipline and true toughness because of the lack of discipline. Look at Meyer, Saban, (what appears to be now Paul Johnson at GT) and the like. These coaches seem take on the attitude with their players that they’ll pop them in the nose. Richt doesn’t seem to want to muss up his hair and that tan-in-a-bottle complexion.
Who do you think is on Damon Evans’ short list these days. Miami ( the good rev’s alma mater) might be looking for a coach in a couple of years. Coral Gables might not be a bad place to retire to and be attractive to a guy in his forties.

You want to know why everyone call’s for Willie Martinez to be fired… you don’t play defense with your D-Backs 8-10 yards off the receiver moron…. Yea everyone complains this and that—- I don’t care what the score is…. coaching does make a difference and yes once again got outcoached in a big game/ this game… Willie Martinez and a ZONE defense go hand in hand—- you don’t play defense that way… play big boy ball and man up… Florida plays a mickey mouse offense that is predicated on timing, well how do you disrupt time- put pressure and play bump and run..
So yes Georgia’s defense is in the top 20 every year- well that is in spight of Willie Martinez and his pathetic coaching… He runs a high school defense my grandmother could run and pass against…
GUY’S AND I MEAN THE ALUMNI !!!! push for a coach that understands what it means to play defense- what do you think Charlie Strong the FLA D-coordinator plays—- man up with a lot of pressure. Bring back Muschamp - he never shoould have gotten away as our Defense Coordinator… or get Kirby Smart to come back—- both are part of the Saban tree and that means sound tough minded in your face defense’s and on top of that they played here and would be coming home!!!!
I am tired of being outcoached by teams we should beat…
TIME FOR EVERYONE TO PUT THEIR DAMN FEET DOWN AND DEMAND A CHANGE OR WE WILL NEVER GET OVER THE HUMP….
Oh and to all you Gator fans- you forget , the team celebration last year was not supposed to be for the whole team… my god if you smile at the ref when you score a touchdown they will throw the flag— so get a grip about the incident and get over it…. heck everytime one of your players score’s what the heck is the chomp—— taunting if you want to go by the rule’s…Spikes celebrating a tackle the most basic football fundamental with a drop-kick- well like I said shut up and get over it…

You Dawgs got what you deserved! You embarrassed us last year and taunted us with the endzone stomp. You had it coming. Did you really think we would let up on you after last year?
Also, give me a break about the refs. You guys just got your butts whipped! You did not score a touchdown until the 57th minute of the game. The refs did that? The refs held your heisman jokeful to 65 yards and a fumble! Don’t be sore losers. You were beat by a better team!

To Georgia fans from a fellow fan: The day Erk stepped off the field we have survived on strong in state talent and average to abysmal coaching since then. Our program could be the monster that UF has had and continues to be. CMR was/is better than Goff/Donnan. Those two guys weren’t SEC caliber coaches. What bugs me is that CMR has let his assistants dwindle in their skills!! Remember Van Gorder’s defenses?? Bobo as an offensive coordinator is plainly for all of us fans to see NOW a total bust! Very bad play calling at the most important times in the most important games! Yesterday proved that with an !!!!!!!!. I mean the field goals after the retarded play calling LOST the game for us right there. CMR is COCKY to a fault the last 3 years he is well under .500 in the BIGTIME SEC games. Yet he sits there with his dumbass butt cut hairdo and tells the network chick that the onsides was a smart calculated risk!!!! WTF coach you look even more stupid now. For the money we pay that guy, his whole staff needs to be culled through including Martinez who actually had a decent plan going yesterday until the wheels came off. Our team is long on excuses and short on tough smash mouth football that was the main driver of this program a long time ago when we owned those nasty Gators!!! (Junkyard Dogs?????) where have you gone????? At this point unless CMR gets nasty and does what needs to be done with 80% of his staff (this group wouldn’t survive in GSU’s league with the way UGA’s coaching/prep looks in the BIG games year after year) I doubt he will and his record against UF speaks volumes about what type of program we have. LAst night set UGA back a few years and prob will mark the beggining of the end for CMR unless he surprises me! I think the big money alums and Adams know what I do now and that is UGA is 1 good coach away from being in the NC picture annually like UF/USC/others. For 3 mil I think there are some great prospects out there! The Texas Tech coach, Wake Forest coach, Jimmy H @ Stanford, so many others that aren’t cocky to a fault and worry about fake tans etc……. I am sick of UGA looking like a deer in the headlights in big games. When was the last time we even came back from being down at the half?
PS I am ashamed my University continues to allow this game to be played in the biggest dump hole of a city where UF’s campus is less than an hour away and our fans drive much farther + refs always help UF out with their calls down in Jax, its getting beyond pathetic and I have seen it now since early 1990’s and it just happens every year and it def. helps UF get key momentum when needed!!
I am totally disgusted with what a laughing stock UGA football has become after this season with everyone in the SEC/region and even the national pricks @ ESPN too laughing at us!!!!! Yet CMR doens’t seem to get it, you have looked like a fool way too many times and in recent cases much worse blowouts than Goff/Donnan ever endured. CMR quit smuggin around that stupid smile and buttcut hair with the rub on tan. You might be a nice guy and do gooder but you got evil Cryer/Saban blowing your coaching up cause the y don’t attend church 3 times a week and don’t have a dozen adopted kids in their family. GIVE ME A YOUNG ERK please!!!!!!!!!!! UGA waiting to take it to the next level and it sure seems like CMR has peeked and going in reverse.

They sucked, you suck. Got it?
Enjoy the Capitol One Bowl. You should draw an easy opponent. Than you can come out next season claim you NC, until you lose your annual 2 or 3.
And why would your dynamic duo “Mighty Matt” and The Invisible Man (noshow) stay? They will turn pro and put the memory of these miserable teams behind them

Apparently, Ray Goff & Mark Richt are interchangeable. Unbelievable… Florida was only one TD shy of beating us by the same score they beat Hawaii. I’m so sick of GA laying an egg in Jacksonville & huge games at home. Unacceptable!

Congrats to the Gators and Dawgs for beating the snot out of us this year. Just remember next year you will be in the same position we are this year. Young and inexperienced at QB. Even with our two losses,Baton Rouge is still CRYSTAL CITY. Here’s to two BCS National Championships in 4 years. Geaux Tigers

Meyer is a moron. At first I thought his timeouts at the end were justified based on what Georgia did last year, but now I realize that all he has done is up the ante, which is something a third-grader would do but is not befitting a mature individual, which he clearly ain’t. You send a message on the field, and no one can convince me that the two timeouts were a show of class, whether Ga. deserved it or not (seems to me that the best revenge is the a-whippin, not some childish stunt at the end). Last year’s celebration would be a blip on the radar had Meyer left well enough alone, but now he’s added more bad blood to the series. The hatred between the schools only will increase, the ugliness will grow and the supidity will continue to abound. Way to go.
Interestingly, no matter how long Florida continues to dominate this series, the most memorable game and play will continue to be “Run Lindsay Run.” That will never be erased, no matter how many games Florida wins. It’s the play that defines the series, and even if Florida wins every game the next 20 years, that play will be showed during the televised coverage.
And, BTW Tigrsaint, LSU’s first national title was deserved, but last year’s victory is more an indication of how goofy the BCS system is than how good LSU was, because good teams don’t lose late in the year to Arkansas.

When you fire Richt, you might want to check with Tommy Tuberville. I hear he might be available.

HEY DOGS, YOU GOT STOMPED. WELCOME TO NASHVILLE, BABY! We’ll take you and your 8-4 record anyday. Actually 8-4 isn’t anything to be ashamed of … EXCEPT WHEN YOU’RE THE PRESEASON #1 TEAM IN THE NATION! Who’s your coach, Lloyd Carr? Charlies Weiss? Ty Willingham? Let’s hear all that smack now! What?, it’s kinda quiet.

first of all FU-CK you Florida and FU-CK you Urban Crier, and FU-CK this crew of referees, they are pieces of s**, this referee crew hated Georgia since last year and they tried to screw us over when we played auburn, now they repeated the same s** again, clearly they screwed 3 calls, first our interception was legit and there was no hit to the face, second Florida players did multiple personal fouls and non were called, one of the Florida DL tackled Moreno and stayed on the top of him for almost 10 seconds without a reason, if I were Georgia players I will pull his eyes out of his helmet, or I will smash his testicles, I swear I will, and third That TD over Asher Allen was offensive holding, I saw it on the field, I cant believe the ref didnt see it, if i see it the ref should be able to see it. we dont want the referee crew to be in any of Georgia’s games. FU-Ck all Floriduh fans on this blog

Being from Ga, I almost instictively gravitate towards routing for all the home teams. But after reading the inane redneck comments from the Ga fans it is easy to find great satisfaction in their demise. Ga fans suck on a whole other level. Go tech.

What you get is meaner and meaner coaches in the SEC. When Jimmy Johnson at the University of Miami divorced his wife saying he didn’t have time for a marriage it was a freak thing to do, now I am thinking that may not be that freaky. The Alabama coach once told Bush he was too busy to see him, which I can’t blame him but it has not been a normal conduct to dish the president. Anyway you get a guy like Richt who seems to have his priorities in line, but can’t win big games or is surprised in small ones while you got the guy that lives under the bridge taken over college sports, it will take its toll on the entire game some day and not be a good thing.

I am a Gator fan, and while I am obviously happy with the way the game went yesterday, I also think the UGA fans need to calm down a bit. First, the UGA defense did not play as badly as the score might imply (look at yards). It was the offensive mistakes and turnovers that did you guys in. The game was relatively close in the first half (14-3), but the turnovers in the second half took you out of it. The Gators lost a tough one to Ole Miss on a field goal block, multiple turnovers, etc., and rebounded to play their best football since then. The real test for UGA will be how the team responds to this loss. If you go out and hang 30+ on Kentucky, then you know what this team will do the rest of the year…

Refs..paid by Gators?? Georgia #60 and #61 held the entire game. Their O-line could have given up so much more if the refs didn’t let them use MMA take down moves the entire game. Taking and spotting the ball at the 1/2 yard line isntead of 2 inch line at worse. facemask of Tebow should have gotten the guy ejected. When your 3rd and 4th string score, if that’s running up the score so be it.

Come on dog fans, did you really think that your team was ready to play with the big dogs.
The only reason they were ranked, was the Moreno hype, but thats gone now. You all are just the same old bulldogs, playing easy out of conference schedule. I just hope in your bowl game, you play Oklahoma/USC, instead of Hawaii/Boise St/Florida St. You will never win a national championship w/i next 10 years. Go GATORS!!!!!!!

Cheers to all the Georgia fans who called in to local sports talk shows talking about “when” we beat Florida and “when” we beat Alabama in the SEC title game. Your program’s lack of discipline on and off the field will never allow you to achieve the unrealistic goals your disillusioned fan base has. The Tide will show your pathetic team how to beat the Gators.

First off, Tech fans, lets see you beat UGA before talking trash. Your starters were all in elementary school the last time Tech won, which is probably why none of them got recruited by Georgia. You nerds have NOTHING to say until you win, so stay off this blog and get back to your World of Warcraft. Second, somebody give me Will Muschamp’s number..

BLADE: This is a BOISE BLUE RUG BOWL team if I’ve ever seen one. Play Oklahoma or USC ??? Do you really think the networks would put that joke together ? It would be the third televised dawgslaughter of the year.
