UK, more like WE suck

Sorry to all of the UK fans out there that may have been offended by UK-More like YOU SUCK. Actually, WE suck. That's right. Georgia is terrible, but that isn't exactly news anymore. (Sadly).
Yep for the second straight season on Senior Day, Georgia gets out front early, only to fumble the second half kickoff and suddenly lose. AWESOME. Loved it. I also loved it when Joe Cox, after throwing two interceptions decided to THROW Washaun Ealey under the bus ("I don't know what he saw, but I turned around and he was too close to me," was more-or-less the quote from the AJC.) Umm Joe, if you saw that he was too close to you, WHY'D YOU PITCH THE BALL YOU BIG DUMMY?! Hand it off or be a man and try and get the ONE yard yourself.

If you wanted to blame Washaun, perhaps you could for not cutting inside on his big run down to the four. If he had cut in instead of going out of bounds to avoid a hit, he finds paydirt.

But how sad is it that AFTER the fumble and the defense gets the ball back, first play....BOOM Joe Cox INT to end the game. His two picks were BAD throws. BAD BAD BAD.

And after we looked so good in the first half.....

with the exception of Jeff Owens, Kade Westin and Geno Atkins, I think this senior class is the one I've been happiest to see leave in all of my time as a Bulldog fan. Cox, Bryan Evans (can I help you guys pack?), Prince Miller (or Toast, as he's been known this year), Michael Moore (thanks for the South Carolina game in 2007!), Grrr.

And the funniest thing about Reshad Jones is that when folks WANT you to leave early for the NFL, that should tell you something. Rennie Curran, you can stick around, but PLEASE Reshad Jones, you can go.

This year has been a disappointment and really the seniors are to blame, namely Joe Cox. (Well and Willie Martinez, though if he is allowed to stick around, C-Note and Justin Houston are going to make him look REALLY smart) At some point, the Seniors needed to STOP yelling at fans (Cox) and pull this team together, even strap the team to their backs and carry them (something Curran and Green did, but no one else ever really did)

That's a shame. Georgia should NEVER EVER EVER be 8-4, much less 6-6. 10-2 should be every year at worst, but with a bad QB with a shaky D-Coor this team was doomed. Thankfully the team IS going to a bowl and Aaron Murray and Zach Mettenberger should get EVERY snap of the first 13 practices with Cox getting the last two practices in preparation for whomever the team plays in the Independence Bowl....
Find out who is coming back and who is leaving. Play ONLY the ones returning in those practices to get a jump so maybe next year the Dawgs can go 9-3. Crud!

In other college football thoughts, hey Alabama and Florida, was that fun? Hope so. Way to spit in your fans faces the week before Thanksgiving.

Kudos to Klimpsen for winning the Atlantic Division. I knew they'd be better. I hate to tell The Deacon I told him so (that's right, The Body is becoming The Deacon!) BUT I TOLD HIM SO. Believe in Dabo!

Finally, I still say that Michigan would be STOOPID to get rid of RichRod. Tate Forcier is a different story. I might try Denard Robinson a little more. Now, Notre Dame and Charlie Weis, they are cooked. They will NOT turn around and they need new blood there. Just don't hire Kirby Smart as the new Head Coach. He needs to come be Georgia's D-Coor. Just saying......

PS, WHY IN THE WORLD is NASCAR called the largest spectator sport in Amerca? Ummm, ever hear of College football? The Big House holds 115,000+. Knoxville, Columbus, Happy Valley, Athens, Baton Rouge.....But no, I'm sure NASCAR's 36? races a year with 150,000 in attendance is more than 119 teams playing 12 games apiece. Sure......Where do they get these numbers? I think those people are huffing too much paint thinner in their trailers.

I don't know what to say about the abomination on Saturday night other than.... "You can't overcome stupid"

I feel like Georgia has some of the same issues USC has this season. Inexplicable overconfidence. Joe Cox is not humble and he's a guy who should be ridiculously humble. He thinks he's fantastic. He does not own a mirror.

Why Bobo would call a pitch play in the end zone to a freshman RB who doesn't get much more than see the ball run the ball is ridiculous.

I feel like the penalties come out of frustration and pure stupidity. These guys bought their own hype they don't listen, they don't play sound football in any aspect. It looks like they just expect to win without having to do anything then when the game falls apart they get more and more sloppy.

Quite possibly this is the worst Georgia team of the last half century. I can't think of anything....anything they do well.

I really truly thought Atkins and Owens were going to be good...add Kade Weston...Houston. I thought they would be pretty good. Oh well. I was wrong again.... but outside of Rambo...these guys are just completely lost in coverage at the safety position.

Sorry man. Just a miserable year sports wise.
