In what now seems to be an annual event, GEORGIA lost another huge home contest.
AJ Green may be the best receiver in college football – he had 99 yards and what could have been the winning touchdown, except for a grotesque sportsmanship miscall, followed by a special teams’ breakdown and a final total collapse. He almost saved us, but why did we need to be saved?
Look at it this way: Each team scored two 4th quarter touchdowns, and the difference in scoring margin was that LSU led 6-0 at the end of the 3rd quarter. They won by 6.
Our defense played with the heart and tenacity not seen since Van Gorder gave two thumbs up on the regular. The culprit in this game – outside of the one VERY bad blown call by the officials – was our offensive play calling. Bobo called the worst half of football I remember in the first half. We simply yielded all third downs to them. It was weak and conservative and just crap. And, yes, Joe was cold and the running game stank. But you 100% must try to get first downs on a third down and eight by passing down the field.
