GONE BOWLIN’

One way to think of it would be an early retirement-like, second-tier type final job, getting out of the SEC pressure cooker and either it works out big at Miami or it doesn’t but, dude, you are from Boca. Half the country would love to empty nester old-age-it-up somewhere in the Sunshine State, and you […]

Dawgs for 8-of-10 in Old Series

Welcome to the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry. An exciting matchup every year, Georgia (6-3) holds a 55-55-8 record versus our “sister school” Auburn (5-4), both programs’ series record on exacta. The first game-between was played in Piedmont Park of Atlanta in 1892, Georgia then coached by Charles Herty. Get this, the game was played on […]

Big Moment

Big moment for our program as the World’s Largest Cocktail Party looks to be called GEORGIA-FLORIDA instead of “Florida-Georgia” for the next full year. I propose the winner get first name in the series and the losing fans HAVE to say it the right way or face public ridicule. It’d be cool. Big moment in […]

Being Greyson Lambert

You had no pass protection nor running game. You graduated. You moved home. You were third string. See, we all go through major trials and tribulations in this life, and many of us come to an important crossroads on occasion and are forced to reevaluate and decide. 11. 13. ~ That’s the stat line that […]

The Return

Dual threat quarterback Nick Marshall makes his first career visit to the Classic City as the starter for sister school Auburn Saturday night at 7:15 p.m. Marshall was kicked out of UGA for theft, and later his continued disciplinary issues resulted in him missing a half a game at the halfway house on The Plains, […]

Vols Will Battle Dawgs

Last year’s tilt on Rocky Top was part of an ongoing injuries horror show. Receivers had dropped like flies for weeks, and we had seen star Todd Gurley fall to an injury the week prior, rolled up on by an overmatched Bayou Bengal. We survived LSU after beating Carolina by double digits. Those were home […]

Familiar Territory

Virtually a replay of last season, simply reverse the Palmetto State opponents. Think back to us beating South Carolina by pulling away late and then putting it on them; that’s what we did to Clemson in Athens. Think back to the Clemson opener of 2013. We botched a short field goal attempt and lost by […]

Special Teams Have Strong Special Teams

“Special Teams Have Strong Special Teams” Joystick era underway at UGA. 14 years post-Donnan season underway, and my little BHB itself has a 2007 origin way in the rearview. 7 years. 14 years. TOUCHDOWNS, baby! Make more touchdowns than your opponents and win. That’s football, we think. But field goals matter, too, more than most […]

What a Difference

What a difference a play makes. Ask Justin Scott-Wesley or Murray for Heisman. Had that been a pick instead of a touchdown pass Murray would not be over the hump as a player, UGA would be .500, Richt would be on the hot seat, at least with the fickle fans and perhaps even with the […]

The Xs And The Os, The Ws And The L

Then they stepped forward on a separation Saturday, the defending SEC West and SEC East champions many feel are on another collision course. BAMA — GEORGIA — one has won three-of-four national championships, while netting two non-consecutive conference crowns — the other is going for the three-peat in-division but has not worn a conference crown […]
