Smart to UGA

Jeremy Pruitt stressed he would like to return as the UGA defensive coordinator immediately after he stoned Tech 13-7 in Atlanta Saturday afternoon. An opening score by 1,000-yard rusher Sony Michel outdistanced the Jackets, who were held scoreless into the 4th yet still had a shot late due to Georgia’s remarkably low scoring output. Georgia […]

“Tale of Two Saturdays”

In my humble opinion, the penultimate level of amateur athletics is American college football, and the end of year rivalries, including state championships, are just too savory not to be enjoyed. Tale of two Saturdays. Again. As it’s been so many weeks, so many autumnal years. Hanging with the #Marshall crew before the game today, […]

I threw Auburn in that poison stew, too. I also threw a kudos to Clemson […]

This is not nearly as hard as we are making it, y’all. When you have a running quarterback, you run him. When you have a tight end with the best hands on the team, you throw him the football quickly when the primary receiver is covered. When a veteran talent like Keith Marshall is netting […]

Soft Schedule Seltzer For Hungover DAWGS?

The only good thing about Reggie Davis dropping the best pass any of our quarterbacks threw over the past two years, at Rocky Top, is the diminished level of big loss hurt I feel right now. See, If Reggie had caught that beautiful bomb of a Lambert pass and the Dawgs held on to win […]
