One Team Excited to be in Memphis

On a balmy, swirly winter day in the home of The King, blues and BBQ, UGA lost 10-6 to UCF. At 7-3, Mark Richt’s bowl winning percentage is now worse than his overall winning percentage (roughly 74%). Three short years ago today, GEORGIA was a national #10. Four years ago, we’d won a BCS bowl […]

4-1 runs have bookended 1-4 stretch

Over the past fifteen football games played by the University of Georgia, the Dawgs have won only nine and lost six, a fireable record for the head coach. With the win over Idaho State, UGA has gone 4-1 over five games, after an unfathomably awful 1-4 start. UGA also finished last season on a 4-1 […]

Ah, the Prolonged Misery of J-ville

In J-ville, Georgia played with the most heart I’ve seen from us in years in the fourth quarter and came up just short, as Aaron Murray’s fourth turnover of the day (third interception) was picked in overtime and the Gators kicked the three. We have won three total games versus them in what feels like […]

.500 and Rising for Cocktail Party

Washaun Ealey tied Robert Edwards’ single game touchdown record for the nation’s oldest state chartered public university Saturday night in Lexington, Kentucky with five scores, as GEORGIA rolled up over forty points in SEC play for the third week in a row. All wins. And now UGA remains alive in the race for the SEC […]

Dawgs in Bluegrass Country

It really sucked. Sitting in Athens in the cold at night coming off a cold and watching Georgia give a game to Kentucky last season. In our last five games of that inauspicious campaign, the Dawgs went 4-1 – yet dropped a home game to the lowly Big Blue. Kentucky has never beaten Georgia in […]

Disappointing Triumvirate: Green, Ealey, C. King

When I’m publicly having to answer this question to LSU fans and BAMA fans: What happened to GEORGIA? We have problems as a program. We have been a huge two-year disappointment, after being disappointed with a #10 national finish three seasons ago. Five losses last year; four losses already this year. And none have disappointed […]

Can UGA Vanquish Growing Pains?

GEORGIA can do a whole lot to begin to vanquish this season’s growing pains by pulling out a victory at Colorado Saturday night. We won’t recover from 0-3 in the SEC this weekend, nor this season, but we need – desperately need – to win a football game for the future of our not so […]

Grantham’s Defense Not The Problem

When Grantham took over as defensive coordinator after last season, Georgia was coming off an 8-5 campaign full of defensive pains. Georgia had had two remarkably poor defensive seasons in a row; resultant: Richt gave Martinez his walking papers. Martinez’s final defense was actually improved from the unit that held back a talented offense (Moreno, […]

Can Ealey Shake Off S.I. Jinx

A regional cover of Sports Illustrated’s SEC preview featured young Washaun Ealey – quite a preseason honor for a true sophomore on the same team with NFL-bound wideout AJ Green. Ealey was not even an official starter yet; that distinction at running back given to Caleb King for his more consistent blocking. Ealey then drives […]

Conservative Game Plan Fails

Why Georgia why? We have a head coach with a 4-1 record in Columbia. During those four tough DAWGS wins and now one ugly loss, we have scored a total of four offensive touchdowns. Trailing 14-6, Washaun Ealey dropped the rock on the Carolina three. They took over, and we never challenged offensively again. Conservative […]
