Dawgs Again at Top of SEC Selections

With six players taken apiece, the University of Georgia and LSU tied for the most SEC players drafted into the NFL this season. Georgia continues to lead all other programs in the SEC in number of players drafted over the past decade. It’s gotten to the point that Mark Richt is being criticized for underperformance […]

Annual Talent Exodus at UGA

Georgia is first in the SEC in total NFL draft picks over the past ten years with fifty-seven players taken. Twenty-six UGA players have been drafted by the league since the Dawgs last won the SEC five years ago behind DJ Shockley. Matthew Stafford went number one overall in 2009, and we may again see […]

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 […]

Get the Picture

Like Larry Munson used to say, Get the Picture, you guys. The television announcers are saying, ” Georgia can’t stop Tech.” Tech scores then shanks an extra point. 35-34 Dawgs. Brandon Boykin has played and tackled well but fumbles the kick, and it’s scooped up by Rambo. We eventually stall and Coach Richt decides to […]

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 […]

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 […]

Reality Bites

When a promising season starts with by far your best player being suspended. When you go to 0-2 in the SEC and have no real home field advantage. When poor protection, obvious play calling and quarterback inexperience leads to six sacks and the last one does real damage. When a defensive breakdown leads to a […]

Top Hogs in Town

Arkansas led the SEC in scoring last season. At right under 6-feet tall, Joe Adams is a super-quick senior wideout. The other starting wideouts in a three-wide formation are much taller and also proven: Jarius Wright is a playmaker, and Greg Childs went over 100 receiving yards vs. Florida, LSU and UGA last season. Tight […]

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 […]
