Virtuoso Blocking Displayed Between the Hedges
In rivalry games this season UGA is now 1-0 as the Dawgs rolled up 560 yards, including an impressive 282 on the ground. The University of Tennessee Volunteers fell to 3-2 and 0-2 in SEC play for the season, with a 51-44 Georgia win. The Bulldogs, ranked #5 in the nation, moved to 5-0, 3-0 […]
Hydrant
On offense and defense, #5 GEORGIA must simply open the hydrant on Tennessee:

Dear readers, let us fondly now recall Mark Richt’s first big rivalry win, and the second greatest call ever by Larry Munson (Run Lindsay #1, of course). Mr. Munson will always be the single greatest radioman of all time. No audio here…none needed. It’s in your brain and heart. RIP, Larry. GO, Richt!
WHY I HATE TENNESSEE
1. Fans trapped in early Fulmer era who pretend we aren’t the better program. 2. Rocky Top. 3. Checkerboard endzones. 4. Peyton Manning (from Louisiana). 5. The streak of 9 UT wins over 11 years (busted by Jim Donnan in Athens). Honorable mention: That shade of orange.
What Has Been Missing In Program

Certain home scenes have been at the heart of dominant programs, and Between the Hedges […]

Ascending into Autumn
56-20 was the final score in a not so ready for primetime matchup Saturday night Between the Hedges. The boys from Boca came out ready to fire on offense, and they hung around with explosive Georgia until the game was knotted at 14. From there, the Dawgs D woke up while the offense rolled to […]
THIS is SEC Football
Until only a minute-and-a-half was left in a tough first half, GEORGIA and Missouri were locked up in a 3-3 defensive battle in America’s heartland. Senior cornerback Branden Smith took a bad coverage angle, and Mizzou held a 10-3 advantage. Suffering adrenalized overthrows all half, Murray suddenly settled down and started hitting T.K., Bennett and […]
How Mizzou Fits in SEC
Texas A&M has an ongoing border rivalry with Arkansas that dates back to the Southwest Conference which has been played annually of late in the NFL Cowboys Stadium just outside Dallas. LSU and Texas A&M faced off in a bowl two seasons back and appear to be a natural border rivalry in the waiting. Texas, […]
