If it wasn’t for some mysterious holding call on the first blocked punt, UGa would be in even worse shape. Good D, no O. And if Ole Miss wasn’t so bad, Dawgs would be in a lot worse shape.

Wow.

Now, when I said this last week, I was just kidding.

Now I really have to wonder if Mo Mass is dropping passes from Stafford on purpose.

Because this is the 4th straight pass that he’s dropped from Matt going back to last week.

I seriously wonder if Mo is trying to submarine Matt’s chances, because I honestly have no other reason as to why he’s dropped these passes.

JOHN EASON IS THE WORST RECIECERS COACH IN THE NATION AND MUST BE FIRED TOMORROW!!!

Why in the world did we stop handing it off to Lumpkin? What possessed Richt to pass on 1st down so many times? Didn’t he watch the Wake Forest game film? This is so incredibly frustrating!

Every year it becomes more and more apparent that Richt wins only because he’s a great recruiter (one of the top in the country). He’s a poor game day coach and the team would probably be better off if Richt wouldn’t get involved in game planning, got an offensive coordinator and just sat in the stands and let the assistants run the games.

Okay, I’m the eternal optimist, but we are NOT a top 25 team. We don’t deserve to be ranked. Our offense sucks, our defense cannot defend anything consistently (100+ yards to Benjarvus Grenn-Ellis? When you KNOW they are going to run? Come on!). We’ll have our heads handed to us in Athens next week. I doubt we score a point against Tennessee.

I appreciate all this emotion going back and forth, but this is a team playing with no fire, no excitement and no vision. I think everyone knows this O is tanking right now.

I don’t think the D is immune this week from some criticism. What’s with the blown coverage on that TD (even tho it was fumbled before crossing the goal line)?

I don’t have any hard feelings for anyone expressing frustration with this situation. I said it about the game last week and I say it again this week: this game sucked.

They may coach up for Tennessee and play to the level of the competition next week, but it will be another ugly, edge-of-my-seat, uncomfortable experience. We are in sad shape, boys. It does not look good, but Ws are Ws. Until there’s a L I’m gonna keep getting up Happy on Sunday.

How many drops were there tonight? I counted seven. Demiko Goodman dropped at least four, even tho a couple were low. At least seven more misfires. He and Staff were grimacing at each other!

We’ll likely fall out of the top ten this week. But that’s okay.

SoCal,

Once again, you’re an idiot.

Like Joe T 3 the statue would be any different.

Instead of passes being dropped, we’d have passes being INT’d because of his weak arm.

And if you think JoeT would have been able to make that scramble to set up our first TD, then you’re dreaming.

I just hope that tonight ends the debate.

We must win or lose with Stafford. For now, and for the future.

And MoMass can continue to drop passes on purpose to try and get his guy into the game, but it just won’t work anymore, because Matt will just not throw to him.

I am sick of this team being woefully unprepared on gameday. I’m sick of the stupid personal foul penalties. That VaTech football, not Dawg football.

I am sick of our coach refusing to run the ball on 1st down. I am sick of seeing No. 20 line up int he backfield.

I am sick of seeing No. 6 not getting 25 carries a game.

Tenn won the East in 2004 with a true freshman QB because they relied on their defense and the run.

Why won’t Coach do that?

BuLLYdawg, I think you owe Matt Stafford an apology. Looks to me like the “Howitzer” learned to take a little off his passes tonight. Trouble is, we got certain receivers that just can’t catch. Looks to me like he managed the game similiar to a 5th yr. senior. Did just enough to get the W. Your Freshman of the week, who I have nothing against, seemed to be having some trouble reading the ol’ D, throwing into double coverage and getting balls swatted back in his face. BuLLYdawg, you may intimidate some on this blog with your page long statistical ramblings, but not me. You’re nothing but a blow hard. I think you need to MAN-UP and give Stafford some credit.

The competition has not been good and yet UGA keeps finding a way to win.

Throwing out the coaching staff is just stupid. It was the same staff that won the SEC last year. In fact, I would argue that the consistency on the staff has been one reason for the success. Compare good programs and bad ones and compare the stability on staff. Miami tossed out much of its staff-has not helped it much.

Richt makes some strange decisions and clock management still seems a weakness (although with the new rules many coaches seem to be having trouble). However, I think his not panicking is what allows UGA to overcome these poor performances. To me nothing gets a team more in trouble than when a coach is panicking.

Young QBs, offensive line that does not seem to be quite up to snuff possibly because of a lack of talent and a lack of time to gel. O lines have to be able to work as a unit and it is not. It should be by now, but it still is not there. With the young QBs and receivers once again not doing well at catching the ball, defenses are going to dare UGA to throw the ball.

Anyone count the number of drops. Goodman made one very good catch on that long pass play, but the rest of the receivers looked poor.

Thank goodness for a very good defense that does not let the other teams so far score TDs.

The 5 wins we have are against teams with a combined record of 8-16. We barely pull out wins against 2 of the worst teams in Div. I-A football: Colorado & Ole Miss. Memphis, Missouri, Kentucky and Wake Forest averaged 30 points of offense against Ole Miss and we managed only 14! This is undeniably the worst offense Georgia has put on the field in the last 20 years. Our offensive coordinator should ne fired immediately. We have a veteran offensive line and a trio of powerful running backs, but we made Ole Miss’s defensive look like a top 5 denfense tonight - ridiculous. CMR has no emotion and he is a terrible leader. I’ve said from the time he took over at Georgia, we will NEVER win a National Championship as long as he’s our coach. He doesn’t have the fight of a champion. I say go Miami and send us Larry Coker. He actually WON a CHAMPIONSHIP.

MR, “ou funny [GI], you very funny” It has to be funny when this sorry excuse for offensive playcalling is displayed for all to see. My hopes are and someone please prove me wrong that this spat of horrible offense is due to some grand master plan to fool the Vols because shoot, I am fooled. Aren’t we the very same fans, newsmedia, and other pundits who credit you for that wonderful spat of heisman trophy winners you sustained down in Talahassee? But season after season there is NOTHING of that to show at Georgia. This offense is beyond sorry and there is no rhyme or reason to it. I have to agree with the earlier writer who feels Mo is deliberately dropping Stafford’s passes. Some of those balls seem to literally hit against his chest. What are these guys learning at practice. Again I preach this is a result oriented game and by all accounts Eason you need to find a new calling in life because your recievers SUCK! They are a direct reflection of you and well Sir they don’t hold up to muster. I fret this weekend against TN because by all accounts there is nothing that we have done on offense to scare them. Martinez you better rest these men because they will be on the field all next week. It is too bad I can’t look forward to this 4-day weekend. I will cheer louder than anyone for this here football team but I will be the first to raise the B/S flag. It is with all due respect and sadness that I finally realize and say we do not deserve to be in the top ten. Better we fight our way up than to get thrown down.

Also, all you anti-Richt mrons need off the blog as well. CMR is a winner and we should all be grateful for the stuff he does here.

I’ve followed UGA teams since the mid-1960’s. I agree with previous posts…this is about the most unproductive and non-threatening offenses I’ve seen at UGA especially considering how many so-called “star” athletes there are on team. All night long I watched Ole Miss run at least 5 or 10 yards or more on every play it seemed. And I watched us hardly ever score a first down…..forget touchdowns….I was getting excited about a first down! CMR is a good recruiter but nobody on the coaching staff seems to know what to do with the players once they become DAWGS. I’ve said it before and I still believe it….the UGA teams under CMR play as if they have no fire at all. And I atribute this to the personal style and personality of CMR. I see other teams’ coaches being interviewed and see the determination and fire pouring out of them…..we don’t have that. We need our head coach to show some emotion…so fire…yell at players when needed…get energetic….let them know when they play well and when they play badly. Let them know that you CARE! It still seems to me like CMR has never fully committed to UGA and has never planned on staying at UGA long-term. He’s just not a DAWG at heart no matter what his contract says. I’ll probably be the only one not surprised one day when he moves on. In the meantime, the ineptness of our team belongs to the coaches. We may have won our games so far, but we haven’t played a team yet that is deserving of any mention. If can only barely beat the poor teams, the ones that everybody else beats handily, then the remainder of the season is going to be a shocker for loyal DAWG fans. We can’t throw, run, catch, block, tackle, or intercept. That about sums it up.

For one thing you guys need to settle in on ONE QB. Pick the best one, and let him take his lumps. You are now 5 weeks into the season, and yet your offense sputters. The defense is good yes, but sooner or later it may catch up with them,time will tell on the defense. It’s funny to see the Dawg nation bashing their team. You guys are NOT a top 10 team. You have played NOBODY, and you WILL get your heads kicked in by the Vols next weekend.

I didn’t get to see the game tonight because of work, but listened to every play and I was wondering if all of our recievers were somehow swapped out during the off-season for a bus load of Jerry’s Kids. From what I heard Momass needs his A$$ benched. Munson said it best when he said “it hit his hands,arms, and red jersey”. I too, think that something is up with Momass and Matthew. How come high school recievers catch MS’s passes last year and now our guys say that they have to ajust for his speed. Yea maybe the first couple of practices but not after 5 games. I don’t think we have a QB problem, we have a WR problem. Thank the Lord we have the best “D” in the SEC because if not we would be 3 and 2. I have all the respect in world for Mark Richt. I think that he will figure something out but I don’t think that we will be ready for the Vol’s at the rate that we are going. Maybe as LM says, “OLD LADY LUCK” will find us, I just hope that she doesn’t wait until we’re to far down to help. GO DAWGS

Another note for the anti-CMR morons who claim to be Georgia fans: 1990s, zero SEC titles, 3 losing seasons, a whole lot of mediocrity. 2000s, 2 SEC titles, 3 division titles, 4 Top 10 finishes, 4 straight 10 win seasons, 5 top 5 recruiting classes. Anyone questioning Mark Richt? Seriously, y’all make me sick. I don’t always agree with Coach’s playcalls, but then again, I’m not on the field and haven’t spent hours breaking down film. If you think you’re more qualified to coach UGA, I suggest you contact Damon Evans, but nobody around you in the stands really gives a crap.

I usually don’t post more than once, but the stupidity of our so called “fans” has forced me to do it. Maybe a losing season would be good, as some of the “fans” on this blog would go back to their pre-2002 ways of watching something else on Saturday. Does being old or being a booster entitle you to be stupid? SUPPORT OUR TEAM AND OUR COACH! I hate to say this, but an outside observer to UGA seeing this blog must have a pretty negative impression about our program. Also, to those “fans” who booed our players at halftime vs Colorado: What does that say to recruits? Maybe we have a really athletic and smart fan base that could out play the players and out coach the coaches? Seriously y’all. True fans support the team thorugh everything, good and bad. Hopefully no one boos at the UT game next week. Have some hope- I have full confidence that the coaches will figure out the big O’s problems and fix them. From a TRUE fan since age 2 (1990)- GO DAWGS!

Hey Dawgs:

Your #1 QB is a gimp, and your #2 and #3 QBs can barely beat the #105 team in the nation (Colorado) and one of the SEC’s basement scrubbers (Ole Miss). See you in the Chick-fil-A Bowl or the Music City Bowl. You may be the most overrated undefeated team in the country next to Wake Forest or Rutgers.

I too have been a die hard fan since the late 60’s and lately the offense has brought back memories of Vince. While I was often frustrated with Vince and the play calling UGA normally found a way to keep it close and would win 8 or 9 games. The comment about recruiting is off-base. Rodney Garner is a great recruiter and thank god someone recognized that a few years back when another SEC program tried to steal him. Yes, CMR knows how to close the deal, but it is Coach Garner that keeps the talent coming. I for one, hope Stafford starts next week. If he struggles then give JoeT his shot to shut up all his fans. The line once again seemed to come alive in the 2nd half. Why can’t they come ready to play in the 1st quarter. I said it last week, Cox does not have the size to stay in the pocket, listing him at 6’1” is a major stretch. For him to be effective he has to roll out. If the line doesn’t show up next week until the 2nd half we will be severly whipped. I believe the team will come ready to play, just like in the Dooley years. When we lost he could keep the game close with all the running plays and clock management. I just hope Coach Garner is looking at some JC O-linemen. We have 5 Srs on the line who have barely gotten the job done against OM, CU, and UAB. I live in StL now and was shocked at the way MO manhandled Colorado? What does that say about our O-line and receivers. Please Dawgs, come to play next week and if we get beat because Rocky Flop has more talent then so be it. CMR has done UGA proud. While I have criticized his play calling its looking more and more that his play calling is a result of some of our talent on the O-line, receivers who can’t catch, and QBs not fully confident. That being said, I still say go with Stafford in the first half next week. I don’t think JoeT is a 100% recovered from the injury. He is bad enough at 100%, 80% will be embarassing.

What the hell do most of you know about play calling? You wouldn’t know the difference between gap/on/over and a Gap sweater…. Y’all come on here and whine like a bunch of little b***…. I hope you put this much emotion and energy into your jobs and second marriages.. Either way…the defense is doing very well….the receivers just are not making plays…the same receivers that y’all probably stayed awake dreaming at night about during the all important recruiting season…. being a graduate of UGA, I will tell those of you that don’t know… that most of the whiners/uneducated football fans you read on here did not in fact attend our fine land grant institution….they are for the most part filthy rednecks who did not get picked for flag football in the 8th grade…. but now..20 years later, they know more about football than Mark Richt…much of the angry diatribe you see on here is actually a projection of their own frustrations.. it could be that they do not have a fully developed male reproductive organ….their Uncle Phil may have been a very bad Uncle…it could be that they have a crappy job because they do not have a degree from our fine school… I do not know

So now, let us hope that the offense finally finds a rhythm and that our Bulldogs find a way to beat the Volunteers…the Dawgs are 5-0….that much, we can all agree on…

Two additional comments. Will someone please tell Tra Battle to quit the jawing and that was clearly a stupid penalty on the sidelines that didn’t get called. Maybe getting burned on the TD will stop some of the mouth. Also, what was the deal Ely-Kelso tonight. I know the blocking stunk, but he looked in slow motion on that last punt, which was nearly blocked for the third time. I noticed a couple of games back that we seem to be one of the few teams that line the punter up 12-15 yards behind the line. When you get one blocked, make that 2 maybe you need to speed up your motion!! Other than those 2 beefs, a win is a win. Look at the bright side. We’ve got 5 wins, one against USC who gave Aub a solid game. Worst case is we drop 3 or 4, but still have 8 wins and go to a decent bowl. The Peach is looking like a real possibility, unless the O-line wakes up from their season long snooze.

Richt has done nothing but win, win and win some more since arriving at Georgia. Remember when Donnan said he’d waited his whole life to coach a team with this much talent then ended up 8-4. Richt has good players, and then he goes on to win with those players. It’s not just good recruiting, heck Donnan did that fine, it’s also very good coaching. Every year players are being replaced and the Dawgs find a way to win in double digits and finish in top 10 all under Richt. One of the best coaches in the country and one of the best coaches UGA has ever had. Yet people on here want to bash the man. Remember how long it was since UGA last won the SEC title before Richt got here?? And how many has Richt now won??

Stafford’s sought after lightning bolt was there for those who professionally grade his game tonight….who knows what’s up with the old and no longer reliable receivers…but it can all be fixed by declaring the all too obvious….Matthew Stafford is the leader, checking to brilliant calls, some dropped by Goodman and some caught by Goodman >>>but I liked Goodman’s and Bryant’s effort…we have a very good first string backfield of Stafford, Lumpkin and Sutherland….Early declaration of Stafford as starter will galvanize the team behind him regardless of the reasons for the lack of “togetherness” thusfar….and one thing’s for darn sure, Tennessee will be very overconfident and more confused about our ability than we are…. Hold the course, Stafford made pro level decisions tonight and really stepped forward….When our receivers start catching just the easy and ordinary ones, forget the difficult catches, we will be awsumb and very unpredictable on the run/pass mixture…Again, the good teams win the bad games and we, a good team, won another bad game….Ainge doesn’t scramble like Schaeffer, so our defense will be more organized and effective than tonight…with Inman hopefully pulling his weight a little better, our run game can be excellent{assuming less dropped passes on the run/pass mix}….SO in summary, bring your butts to Sanford and make a ton of noise, and you will see the talent gell on this team, much to the absolute shock of Tennessee, IF IF IF Coach lets the team know early this week that Matthew Stafford is the QB fo this team, no ifs, ands and buts about it….see ya at 6-0 next week

So much talent, so many problems. This is a coaching issue. The OL, special teams, receivers and how did Tra Battle let that guy get 20 yards behind him? No, I repeat, no national championship with Richt. Ever. Now, let’s hear from the Richt apologists. Where’s Altamama when you need him?

We really haven’t looked like a good football team thus far, but I did see glimpses of what we can be last night there may actually be a running game and a decent defense. We can’t wait any longer for the real Georgia Bulldogs to appear. Here’s what must happen next week and every week thereafter: one running back emerge to take over. We need that guy getting 100+ nearly every game; it’s a mental edge a team has when our opponent is preoccupied. We need to settle on a Q back. I say Joe T if he can be cool in the pocket and shed the nervous feet. Then Mark has to pick a clear #2 to do the rest of it. If Joe can’t make it happen stick with your #2. Platooning won’t win championships. But our biggest problem may be receivers; can we teach someone how to catch the ball? Mark, tell them to catch it like a baseball. Forget the other stuff. It is that simple. Catching a football is not a thinking thing. And D-back pass protection is just as simple. Just like basic defense in basketball. Keep yourself between your man and the goal.

Here’s an idea for the offense. Put Paul Oliver in as receiver, he caught that interception without a problem. Our offensive woes are because of the dropped passes and CMR insisting on going down field and running diffidult out routes. Put the ball in your play makers hands and let them run in the open field. The offensive line has been doing a great job and once the ball is in hand things happen. Without a doubt Lumpkin is the man and shoul be geting the ball 25+ times a game. He looks great.

To those of you making comments for complaining fans to get off the bandwagon. Here’s the deal- We have high expectations, after all we have had a top five recruiting class five years straight. We have a right to be uptight about the offense. The bottom line is that the players are there. If Spurrier had this talent we would be unstoppable. No offense to CMR as I think he is a great guy and a solid coach, but he needs a big time offensive coordinator to help get the ball in the playmakers hands. Most people complaining on the board have a legitimate reason to complain and are providing solutions to the problem. If you don’t want to vent about this problem go over to the Tech board and talk about Tech football. That team looks good without the top 5 recruiting class. BTW- we are still going to kick Techs a* at the end of the year.

A good coach would have called many runs to Brown, Ware, and especially Lumpkin. However, a great coach realizes we can’t be one-dimensional against the big boys in the coming weeks. He kept calling passes because thats the part of our game that needs work. How will the young QBs and WRs improve if we don’t throw? Richt is preparing them for what lies ahead.

The last time I checked when you win by 1 pt, you won. so ask Ala how good was it to lose to Fla when they Ala outplayed Fl ? To all you Couch Coaches and Sunday morning football players and coaches, please we can all second guess people but the bottom line is you do the best with what you have. last year Tenn had talent and everything and ended up 5-6 , I didn’t see people talk what a great job Phil did or how they tried hard and how good they lost lol so please. Coach Richt has done a great and when thing are rough , it is not time to bail out but encourage and support them. Remember this are 18-22 yr young men.

Terrible football. Our defense is worse than our offense. How is it that we allow two of the worst offenses in D1-A football to run us over for 3 quaters before we start playing? Is it that hard to get these guys up to play Colorado and Ole Miss that we have to be losing at halftime and mount a comeback in the second half? I would understand it if it was just these two games, but thats not it. This started back at the Florida game last year then rolled over to the Sugar Bowl. I don’t know what in the hell is going on but if that defense thinks they can play like this against TN, FL, Auburn, and GT then we’re gonna get our butts run out of the stadium. Willie Martinez maybe the best DC in the country, I don’t know, but I do know he can’t get his D up for a big football game and hasn’t been able to since he took the job. There are problems on Offense too. Mainly, play calling and wide receivers. We sure looked good when we would give the ball to Lumpkin and just ran it down there throats in the second half. May question is why didn’t we do that at all in the first half, and why did we start passing in the second half after we’re up 11 points. Don’t we need to continue to run the ball? I may be an idiot but wouldn’t you think if the O-line outweighed them 60 lbs on the line of scrimmage we should be able to run the football? Neil Calloway needs to be fired. The last two weeks have been dismal from a line point of view and if we can’t do any better than this he needs to be let go. MR I’m tired of seeing this one back run the football on 3rd down. FB dive on 3rd and 8 in the first half? Are you kidding me? This is ridiculous. We deserve to be 3-2 right now not 5-0. If you can’t get these guys up for TN next week, you need to fire someone. I’d start with my O-line coach, and DC. One more thing, someone please tell him to get an OC b/c Neil sucks and everyone knows you’re calling the plays MR, and guess what you’re not doing a very good job of it.

Win/loss records are for historians. If you want to live in the past, enjoy. Historically speaking, the last “serious” competition we played was WVU and we got our asses kicked. Richt’s signature is that his teams are all “second half teams.” As said before, if he keeps it up, we’ll need 5 or 6 quarters to win against “serious” competition. No National Championship with Richt. Ever.

First I want to say how much I admire and respect Coach Richt, he is a good man and a great leader. Now, with that being said he has got to realize his play calling is getting a little old, almost predictable, I bet we run that lil ol sprint draw 6 or 8 times a game(maybe more than that) and we usually get nothing. I don’t know maybe I dont understand, but it seems when he was OC @ FSU they moved the ball up and down the field, but now @ UGA we are almost boring to watch @ times, don’t get me wrong I am a true dawg fan and I am not beating them up, but i just can’t figure it out.I watch college football every saturday, how is it that all the other recievers around the country are making highlight reel catches and we can’t catch a cold, seems like the problem is getting worse and worse year after year and game after game, we have a stable full of recievers, but not 1 single goto guy, just look around the country almost every team has at least 1 gut they can rely on, we do not, someone has got to step up, we thought it was gonna be Massoquoi, but he is not the answer. I hope some of the players or coaches read this blog, some of the stuff being said in here is true and they need to read it and take heed.I think Ga needs an offensive coordinator, heck look back at Auburn before Al Borgess came to town, they had Cadillac Williams and Ronnie Brown in the backfield and they weren’t really doing much of anything offensively, enter Al Borgess and they seemed to erupt, now Auburn has been the team to beat the last 3 years, they are almost unstoppable.So come on UGA lets get our heads screwed on tight and go play some football.

After reading these blogs, some of you sound like Alabama fans of the late ’80s and early ’90s who sent Bill Curry threats and wanted to get rid of him after going 10 and 2. This may be Georgia’s year to struggle; just look at Tennessee’s season last year. I have been a loyal DAWG fan since the ’70s and will stay with them no matter what happens. Personally, I would like to see more insensity on defense (like the defenses of Erk Russell and Brian VanGorder). Also, remember that this is just a game of football; no matter how fun it is, there are events happening in the world where there is a different game and that game is for keeps. HBTD!

Everyone just settle down. If you aren’t for Richt, you are against him. More than that, if you aren’t for Richt, you’re not FOR the Dawgs as a team. We have played 2 teams with scramble/running capabilities at quarterback - hard for a lot of teams to defend. Ainge is not a scrambler - we will be fine. As for the receivers, Goodman has become the go to guy (yes, in one game). We finally lined up in the “I” and ran the ball and will continue to do so. GO DAWGS!

I am very concerned, obviously, about our receivers. I think the drops have really gotten in their heads. Which makes me think coaching — we’ve been dropping balls for years and also have shown an inability to get separation. Stafford has deserved a better fate than his stats show.

The offensive line looks inconsistent too. I do think the defense will come in ready to play against UT but the low key approach of Martinez doesn’t get them emotionally ready to play. The intensity just hasn’t been there. I want to defense ready whether we play Podunk U. or Florida — not sleepwalking through the first quarter.

O-line and receivers concern me a lot more than the freshman QB.

By TNDawg

True, there needs to be a fire lit under our ‘boys’, especially Massaquoi, others who seem to have developed reoccurring mental lapses. Agreed, we are a good running team, and have run well (at least 5 yards / carry) except against CO who seemed to know what plays we were going to run. (Hint: play calling too predictable maybe…?) Had we stuck with passing, we’d have heard the Rebels yell all the way from Oxford. Thank God we can still run the football. Too bad it took so long to figure that out. Against TN, we’d have been down 21 by then, as WVA displayed last year.

Defense? They’ll be fine. I have a feeling seeing those orange ‘T’s will spark the maniac in our killers on D.

Oh, and all GA fans, please check spelling and grammar before hitting Post. Nothing like that to erase any credible remarks you may have written.

All of you Dawg fans putting down other Dawg fans for being critical of CMR and his play calling make me laugh. A true fan isn’t afraid to voice an opinion. You blind homers are the same ones who were OK with Coach Donnan and his 8-win seasons. When he was fired, all of your panties got in such a wad. Well, guess what, us REAL fans expected more from the Dawgs and now we’re getting 10-win seasons. We like CMR - just because we criticize some things doesn’t mean that we dislike him. We simply want 12-0 seasons and think we can get there if Richt hires an Offensive Coordinator. Look at Auburn. For the love of God, look at sucky Tech, which could beat us at the moment. (In fact, CMR recently admitted that he’s much more conservative - to a fault - than he was at FSU.) True Dawgs expect more from the team and understand that it’s in the best interests of the team to ask for it. We’re Dawgs first, CMR loyalists second.

Come on now, this is Georgia, the best team in the best conference in the nation. What happened to that usual biased attitude you carry around??? The other shock was that a few of you characters were defending that “a win is a win.” Okay hypocrite, I can’t wait to read your latest blog after Auburn, LSU, or Florida win a close game and you’re all over them about it. It’s pretty simple, if you had acutally played a team with talent so far you wouldn’t be 5-0. The tune-up games you’ve played will not be preparing you for what lies ahead.

Joe T is not the answer to current problems. The solution is very simple, START BLOCKING AND STOP DROPPING PASSES.

Both second half successes came from better blocking and catching.

I wonder how many drumsticks Phat Phil will eat before taking the field Saturday night? You’re obviously just some rube from Tenn., who think he is some grammar teacher. I didn’t know that rednecks from Tenn were known for their grammatical skills. Now run off to take your family to dinner at Dairy Queen or the bowling alley (your version of a country club) for some nachos you douche bag.

Yep,

Once again the Dawgs come out Flat just how Richt gets them up for a game. I have only seen the Dawgs come out fired up for two games since Richt has been there the first against Boise St. last year and the SEC championship game against LSU. That is it, why can’t he get his team up for the rest of the games, I think he is too soft on his team. I like coach Richt, but his play calling for the last two games have terrible and game management has been just as bad. This team better figure something out fast or they are going to get killed at home by Tenn next weekend. I would not want to be at that game next week. Lets not forget that they have to still play Auburn, FLorida, and GT, it does’nt look good for UGA this year. Bottom line UGA is way over ranked and everyone bought into the hpye this year. Unless their offense can do a 180 turn around their done for!

Hey Volsrock1, Keep it up please because as in 5 of the past 6 years we DAWG fans have loved trying to blog you the day after the game when your butt has been whipped like the fat mouthed punks that you are. As in past years though I am sure you wont come on this blog after the game because that is just typical of you Tenn. plow pushers all mouth before, tuck your tails and run afterward! It must suck to be so inept that you cant blog on other peoples web sites the day after the game.

The Dawgs were fortunate again last night as they easily could have folded and lost especially since they looked flat the entire first half. But they showed their true character and stepped it up again and they won. I agree that Coach Richt needs to settle on one starting QB, improve his play calling(too many passes) and one starting RB. So far Lumpkin and Southerland have been the most consistent performers on offense. Ware has also looked good when given the opportunity, but the offensive line continues to miss blocking assignments and with all those dropped passes has contributed to a lack of consistency on offense. The defense continues to play great, but needs to stop the jawing and the stupid personal fouls. As for the punter he did look like he was in slow motion and the Refereees at the game last night should be suspended by the SEC. I’m not only talking about the phantom holding on the first blocked punt (even though that went in our favor), the fumble at the goal line that the replay from the side view clearly showed the Mississippi player lost control before he crossed the goal line, but all of the holding by Miss’s. OL on Moses, Johnson and company that were never called. I would like to see this team play inspired football for 4 quarters instead of the 1 to 1 1/2 half quarters we have seen in 4 of the 5 games so far and I believe we will see them playing hard against Tennesse this coming Saturday. Go Dawgs

Georgia will be fine when they play Tennessee. Every game is played differently and what Georgia did against Ole Miss is not a predictor of what they will do against Tennessee. Nobody knows how each team wiil play next week. It seems that when other teams struggle like Florida did in the first half against Kentucky this year that they do not get criticism like Georgia gets. Georgia just keeps on winning despite all of the criticism.

I got together with some of the other Foundation fellers and we decided that from on, our head coach will not need any actual coaching experience… we want a guy who could not make the high school team…or maybe even one who played a little ball back in the day… what really counts though is that you have watched football on tv and can identify when a stupid QB threw into double coverage or the idiot coach should have called for a pass instead of a run….we know that you will always know what to do…also, we do not want a guy who is calm and focused on the game….we want one who runs up and down the sidelines like a crazed banshee… I think Bob is our man….. he will win every game…. it is our right to win them all…it is our destiny…..

In response- the Ref’s blew a lot of calls in this game and should be suspended by the SEC. But your insinuation that the Dawgs get a lot of calls in their favor is ridiculous and it was good that they “Refs” finally blew one in Georgia’s favor. The Dawgs still stepped it up when they had too and won the game. By the way it is “blow” not “bow” as you wrote.

BIRDOG: What is your conspiracy theory for Mo Mass jumping off sides in the first quarter? His boy Joe Cox was at QB and that pretty much killed that drive. Did Joe Cox snub him in the high school cafeteria in Charlotte by not sitting with him. Does he have something against Joe T III too, or maybe it is Richt he has a problem with… or the colors Red and Black.

Give me a break… Here is a kid that has a chance to make a lot of $ in the NFL (if he starts playing better), do you really think he would be so stuipid as to risk that because he doesn’t want the QB with the best arm throwing to him.

Yeah that Richt, just not able to land good QB’s. that has been the rap against him his entire career.

A quarterback controversy only explains some of Georgia’s ills. The offensive line and wide receivers are playing horribly. This can only be blamed on coach and execution by the players.

Bottom line: anybody who chooses to make claims with as much of an absolutist, know-it-all, condemning and attacking style as you do (even if you are often right), has to expect people to be pulling for you to be wrong. That’s all that’s going on here. I just want you to be wrong so I can say, “nanner nanner boo boo, stick your head in doo doo.”

Seriously, I admire you for sticking to your guns. I agree with alot of what you say. You’re just the easiest guy on the whole blog to take shots at because of the way you say things.

I do think JT3 might be a little better than you think he is.

And I think it’s about the dumbest idea in the world to suggest MoMass is dropping balls on purpose. Absolutely ridiculous - totally lowers your credibility when you otherwise make good arguments.

other than that, I enjoy bantering with ya.

Hope you feel the same.

You gotta admit, though, it would make a damn fine story if JT3 comes in at UT and we have our best game of the year. That would be fun.

Ok now, let’s inject some sound logic and reality into this discussion.

Fact: UGA’s defense has played very well this year. Especially when you consider the fact that many key players graduated last year. They have gotten a fair amount of turnovers, especially in key situations.

Fiction: UGA’s defense “sucks” and the entire staff needs to be fired….

Fact: UGA is 5-0 and ranked in the top 10 in most polls. The ranking is due to the fact that UGA is currently undefeated and out of respect to the program and how it is run.

Fiction: UGA sucks and Mark Richt should be fired. Bob the blogger could coach better than him…

Fact: UGA’s most experienced QB was hurt after the second game. Since then, two Freshman have been playing and have done just enough to win…or should I say, have not done anything to lose…but have not put up big numbers. Fortunately, all three who have played are talented though lacking in experience.

Fiction: Mark Richt does not know how to coach or recruit Quarterbacks.

Fact: UGA has some talented athletes at the receiver position. Unfortunately, none of them has set themselves apart and none of them have done enough to strike fear in opponent’s defenses. Furthermore, the amount of well thrown balls dropped by the entire receiving corps is unprecedented. This has caused many drives to finish prematurely. It has allowed the opposing teams to have better field position. It has caused the young QB’s to have even more difficulty in getting rhythm. UGA’s lack of ability to establish a sound passing game allows opposing defenses more liberties in stopping the running game. If UGA beats UT, it will be because one or two receivers come out and make some plays.

Fiction: The receivers are dropping balls because they do not like one of the QB’s.

Fact: UT has more of a drop back passing approach. This matches up well with UGA’s defensive strengths.

Fiction: Tee Martin never received $$ for playing at UT.

Fact: UGA’s running game success against UT will greatly depend on the ability of UGA to throw the ball with at least some sort of effectiveness.

Fiction: Squabby Juice was delicious.

Now, it is time for y’all to settle down.. the team is in good hands… it is a young team that anyone with logical thought and understanding of football would not expect to win more than 8 or 9 games this year. Yes, believe it or not the SEC is a pretty tough conference and the other teams fan’s want them to win too. Football is fun…enjoy it.

Do you have NO other life? Give the kids and coaches a break—they are all trying their best. If it ruins your whole week when your team loses, you need to find another outlet for your emotions.

That said, I’m pulling for the Dawgs, but I don’t have high hopes when the going gets tough. I don’t think we have the OL or DL to handle the likes of FL, AUB, or even TN. I hope we can find a way to win, but those guys are tough and we can’t expect to man-handle those big guys with our injury depleted lines and new QB’s. I hope the Dawgs will prove me wrong, but this is a rebuilding year, folks, like it or not.

I remember a time (not so long ago) that we would have lost one or both of those games and it would have totally killed our season! We are undefeated and there arent many teams that can say that at this point. If uga plays the way they have the past two weeks, smokey will win big…but I think we all know that this game will be tight regardless of what has happened the past two weeks. If uga wins, I want all of you doomsayers to blog immediately after the game and apologize to everyone (especially Coach Richt) and admit that you overreacted and that it wont happen again next time. Trust Coach Richt!!!! He is smart..he knows what he is doing..and he has brought us two SEC titles in four years!

uga fans are in denial, they think they are going to beat my beloved BEES this year in athens, as I was prunning my shears and watching the Ole Miss team give the mutts all they could handle I decided I would not take my clippers this year to there house, I am just going to sit back and watch Calvin burn there secondary, Tashard run circles around Quinton & his ugly twin cousin Charles, watch our special teams put on a display like they have never seen & watch Chan knock Richt over as he celebrates his 1st win over the inferior over rated # 1 enemy….GT will beat the mutts into the ground so bad that they will need the hedges left alone to bury there comrades….TO HELL WITH THE DAWGS

DawgBone..or is that simply BoneHead? See what you are really made of??? You gotta be kidding me you pathetic inbred moron!! I think we have already seen what the Pups are made of. The thrashing they put on and 0-5 Colorado or the butt-whipping they laid on a 2-3 Ole Miss..wooohooo!! Them hillbillies from up thar in the hills uf Tin-a-see whar they-uns ain’t got no teef will shor nuff kick the dog squeeze out of UGA. Honestly..how do you people find your butt after you go to the outhouse behind your trailer??? Good Lord Man..you are STUPID!!!

Bold statement after that LOOSING SEASON UT had last year. What a joke taking out you frustrations with personal insults. How do you people have the audacity to post here? I guess you just want to see what it’s like hangin’ with the SEC CHAMPIONS.

Who has UT beaten this year? Last time I checked you lost to Florida. Better watch out for South Carolina too. We just keep winning and UT fans keep whinning, blowing smoke and loosing. Phat Phil will be back on the hot seat after his loss this Saturday. And you, VolCrock will have to wait another year before you show your face on our forum. See ya!

I love it that you dawg “fans” talk smack about owning UT. The record (data and facts…things that dawg fans ignore)UT owns UGA, especially in Athens…remember 2004? Does 19-14 sound familiar? We’re going to continue to own you meely mouth, trailer livin, morons!

Fred, did you and Phat Phil enjoy your trip to the bowl game last year? That’s mighty bold talk against the SEC Champs from a 5-6 football team that uga beat 27-14 in Knoxville last year. Why don’t we let them play the game before we start talking all that smack.

I would love the idea that CMR is sandbagging or holding back. But I don’t think so. I’ve seen the DAWGS have breakout games in the past (ex LSU at home a couple years back). I hope one of those is on the board this week. Otherwise, it will certainly be a long day.

CMR - by the way, Randy “I’m not Steve Spurrier” Sanders won’t be making the trip to Athens this year as the O coordinator. I’m sure MCR can steal him away from UK and replace your current O coordinator mastermind, oh wait that’s MCR.

UGA is going to be challenged to match the speed and size and depth of the dogs we’re bring to this fight. All this message board smack talk will be answered on Saturday night and Mr. Richt will be 4 -2 v. TN and UGA will be on its way to 3rd place in the SEC East!

Fred, exactly what depth do you have? You lost your best d-lineman, Justin Harrell, for the year. Your offensive line has struggled all year long according to your morbidly obese coach. Does Tenn somehow have a size advantage over GA? I don’t think so, as I just looked at the depth charts for both teams, and it appears that they’re about even as far as size goes. As far as speed goes, is this the same speed that brought you to a 5-6 record last year? I guess this is the same speed that couldn’t catch DJ Shockley last year as he toyed with the mighty Vowels all game. Don’t start celebrating just yet, as I seem to recall a lot of UT fans doing this same thing at this same time last year, and then on Monday morning they had all disappeared.

Fred, you reference the only Vol win of the last several years. UGA owns UT during the Rickt years. You can not argue that point—the record books prove you wrong.

If UGA is not allowed to bring up the overall record against Florida, then UT can not talk about overall record against UGA.

To all Tech fans: I love your arrogance! UGA has not lost to Tech under Mark Richt. Heck, since the last 3 Tech wins were vacated by the NCAA, you have to go back about 15 years to find a Tech win over UGA in football.

The Dawgs realy need some playmakers. We need to be able to stretch the field , at least some. That means someone has to catch the ball. MR is going to throw the ball, that is his core competency. However, if no one can catch the ball consistently, it’s not ours. Without throwing (and catching) we’ll see blitz and 8 in the box all night long the rest of the year. We must recruit some big, fast receivers …oh, by the way…who can catch, and then watch the running game explode.

We are all just spoiled after the last several years of experienced qb’s. Just goes to show you, it takes more than mere talent at that position. 99 percent of the offensive problems stem from our inexperienced qb’s and from the fact that coach Richt will not settle in on one rb and let him be the man. None of our rb’s can ever get into a rhythm.If you look at most championship-caliber teams they have one stud at running back and he carries the load.

Bring on the Great Pumpkin and his higly overated team.

Ever wonder why we play close games this year? Say you are a team that desperatley needs a quality win for the players you have now and the ones you are recruiting. What better way than knock off the defending Champs of the greatest football conference ever created. Heck yeah I am going to get up for that game, and to their credit, our opponnets have done a better job of getting up for the game than we have. But you know what? I will take an ugly win over a pretty loss any day. This is the Bulldawg Nation, unlike the Gamechicken Nation, there aint no moral victories.

From a diehard Dawg fan, this year, Georgia is either just good enough to beat bad teams, or they are good enough to beat any team, but just barely. Saturday night will be interesting.

I didn’t read all the other blogs and I’m sure I’m repeating some but I had to get this off my chest.

Poor preparation. Poor play calling. Poor clock management (again). Poor execution on 90% of the 10% of the times we did call the right play.

It’s been a long time since I have seen so many things go wrong for 2 straight games. Do the coaches look at game films anymore? My God, Wake Forest hammered these guys, and Arizona State did the same to Colorado the week before we played them.

Does the offensive line believe that Thomas Brown is so strong they don’t have to block for him? Massaquoi drops two straight right in the breadbasket, and he’s a sure-handed receiver? We were running plays with 10-15 seconds left on the 25 second clock in the 4th quarter. I’m surprised we didn’t call a time-out after downing the ball on our last possession.

It can’t get any uglier without losing. Hate to say it, but that looks to be next.

Oh well….GO DAWGS!!!

UGA has tried 3 quarterbacks now and although they have each had shining moments they eventually sputtered. What happened to Blake Barnes. Why not try him. You can’t really know how he will do until he is in a game situation. UGA has had a history of now trying some of their quarterbacks. They transferred and were (2) starters.I believe one was at Oklahoma as a starter. The other one went to Auburn and was a starter. I believe,back then, Quincy Carter was the starter. Please, bring on Blake Barnes. Unless he is injured or something.
