Border Bash Kicks Up SEC Intensity

Speaking of kicks, Morgan better get his head correct and start splitting the uprights regularly again or it will soon cost us wins. He shanked two at Vandy, but our squad had too much overall talent this season to fold in the Music City. Much tougher destinations loom on the not too distant horizon. We […]

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 […]

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 […]

Homecoming in the Deep South

Vandy and Kentucky, the historic two-team bottom tier in the SEC East and in the whole of the SEC, were regularly alternating Homecoming opponents in the Classic City for many years, with UGA winning every year in the modern era save one: a mid-season swoon during a 9-4 Matthew Stafford-led frosh campaign where UGA lost […]

Busts, Bowls and Belles

Highly-ranked BCS teams that lost: Then #2 Florida, #7 Oregon State, #8 Oklahoma, #9 USC, #11 Mississippi State. Other undefeated teams that lost are the state flagship universities of New Jersey and Ohio: Rutgers and Ohio University. Subtract the undefeated ineligible team, Ohio State, and that leaves only five legitimate undefeated teams: 1. BAMA (playing […]

Looking Ahead to 2012

Last week of the year, so instead of rehashing 2011 it’s time to look ahead. BAMA – mighty BAMA – got dropped from the schedule as the SEC East has seven teams and now only two out-of-division slots. The Dawg Nation was originally looking to cruise the relatively short distance to the Capstone of Tuscaloosa, […]

Dawgs Lose Nailbiter to Vols

The Hoop Dawgs lost a close home game against the Tennessee Volunteers Tuesday night. It appeared the game would go to overtime before UT had a put-back that just beat the final buzzer and broke a 57-57 tie. Georgia’s first home loss of the season was a costly one, as the Dawgs fell to 2-2 […]

DAWGS Crush Ole Miss in Oxford

In the land of William Faulkner, GEORGIA Basketball finally put an SEC road win on their growing resumes. By scoring the most points (98) since 1995, UGA has established itself as a potential SEC contender. Georgia whipped then #11 Kentucky in Athens, stumbled at Vandy, and desperately needed this one. Just a season ago, UGA […]

Hoop Dawgs Ranked

For the first time since going on probation following the 2003 season, the University of Georgia Bulldogs men’s basketball team is ranked. After defeating the then eleventh ranked Kentucky Wildcats in front of a sold out Coliseum crowd, UGA moved into the 24th position in the AP poll. Congratulations to second-year head coach Mark Fox!

Ranking Our Rivals

1. florida – Until we play at least even with them over a multi-year period in the Cocktail Party, we will not be where we want to be – consistently ranked in the Top 10. UGA has never had a losing record against UF in football, but those last twenty or so years were rather […]
