From someone who’s been to both Athens and Columbia, when in the world would anyone rather go to USC than UGA. Unless it’s a playing time issue, that is ridiculous.

I guess he enjoys things like indoor plumbing.

Then again, they did beat UGA. I wouldn’t brag too much about having better players.

Better yet, why would anyone want to play for Chan Gailey ??? When he loses to just about EVERY BCS team he play’s ?

The real Truth:

Let me give you a couple of reasons why he would choose USC over UGA:

-> Better coaching (Most say Spurrier is the best coach in the country)

-> He doesn’t have 5-7 RBs ahead of him on the depth chart…each supposedly having unlimited potential based on what I have read in the AJC

-> UGA’s WRs can’t catch a cold so any team that has a decent defense can play man and load the box

-> Their QB can’t make the simple throws vs having the best QB coach in the country.

-> UGA got worked in Athens and lost to USC 16-12 A game that they were supposed to “dominate”.

And that, my friend, is the Truth.

Actually, after this year UGA will have two running backs, Moreno and King, so he would have a shot at being #3 on the depth chart. Secondly, losing by 4 and dropping a touchdown pass late in the game to win is in no way “getting worked” (check game stats, UGA won in just about every category except the score). Having a QB that struggles in 1 game certainly doesn’t mean he can’t make the simple throws…you USC fans should know about that first hand. Get your facts straight before you go posting nonsense. Enjoy the LSU shellacking this weekend.
