Bring on the Alabama State Schools
Florida sits atop the SEC East at the end of their SEC season, but it is not where they wanted to be. Georgia alum Will Muschamp led them to a one-loss season, but that loss was to the tiebreaker-owning Bulldogs, behind in the standings with a loss yet with a game to play. Georgia beats […]
Coaching Points: Dawgs Little Bit Off, Gurley On
True freshman running back Todd Gurley tied an NCAA record held by multiple players with his 100-yard touchdown return for a kickoff – on his first career return. UGA great Brandon Boykin, Georgia’s returner from last season, is notably the only player in NCAA history to return two for 100 yards in a career. Check […]
Beautiful Day for Football
Aaron Murray and the black team defeated the red team ‘Tween the Hedges of Sanford Stadium today, under sunny skies and a strong breeze. Murray continued to show improving poise and put up impressive numbers. Though he was UGA’s statistically greatest freshman QB of all-time and 2nd best in SEC history, the Dawgs stumbled to […]
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 […]
.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 […]
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 […]
Number One in NFL Draft Picks
Though clearly of second-tier importance down South, I did happen to notice that the NFL season starts today. I scoff whenever an over-loyal idiot of say LSU or Bama or Florida obfuscates the obvious by speaking of their best few seasons: The University of Georgia is the most consistent NFL factory in the world’s greatest […]
