Barking Carnival

The Atlanta Journal Constitution, the paper of record for southeastern sports, has a headline proclaiming that Vanderbilt stunned the Auburn Tigers and the SEC yesterday. What Vandy did yesterday should not be shocking to anyone that’s been paying attention this season.
First of all, Auburn isn’t very good. This is an enormous […]

We begin with this report from Saturday’s Notre Dame game.
Can you imagine if they started these practices in the South? Or at Wisconsin for that matter?
Saturday’s UGA game drove a former player to drink (and get arrested for his troubles).
Believe me, if they sold liquor in the stadium, I would have been right there […]

I have done a complete 180 on this issue. When oil man Tex Pitfield suggested that Georgia governor Sonny Perdue call off the UGA - Alabama game to save gas, I like many others scoffed at the thought. After all, this was a huge game in the SEC, a boom to the local […]

The president and CEO of Saraguay Petroleum, whose name is actually Tex believe it or not, has a suggestion for Georgia governor Sonny Perdue. Ole Tex wants to cancel the UGA-Bama game to save gas.
The governor, who is a UGA man, is ignoring the suggestion.
In other news, evil Richt made an appearance at yesterday’s […]

Just a few things I found interesting in my daily perusal of these here interwebs.
For openers, the heat just keeps turning up in Knoxville.
Secondly, we are reminded of the classiness of South Carolina fans.
In actual football related news, Matthew Stafford has thrown 108 passes without a pick.
Chris Low, who lived in Nashville long enough to […]

Effective immediately.

I may be the only one here who cares, but this sucks.

The fat man fell to Florida once again on Saturday and the Volunteer faithful are not happy. After last year’s blowout in Gainesville, the Vols had a lot to prove on Saturday in Knoxville. What they proved is that the Tennessee Volunteers are a program in decline.
Everyone pile on…..now!
We begin with […]

This may not mean much in the grand scheme of things. But if it gives the Dawgs any kind of emotional edge I’m all for it.
Plus, with Gameday coming to town I have a chance to break out my “Chris Fowler Blows Goats” sign again.

Not the least bit intimidating.

The University of Georgia Bulldogs posted their 11th straight victory with a dominating performance against Arizona State in Tempe.
This game saw the UGA pass rush finally making some progress, albeit against a lesser quality OL than they will see in the coming weeks. There were still far too many penalties, even discounting […]

I’m heading out of town in a little while, but I wanted to share this little nugget before I go.
Apparently the admins on the Plains are worried about their sensitive little boys getting booed this weekend. I can’t imagine why anyone would boo them though. Who doesn’t like a good baseball game on […]

This is one hell of a stat:
Rick Neuheisel’s first loss as UCLA coach was by 59 points.
Pete Carroll’s 14 losses at USC have been by a COMBINED 59 points.
Wow.
Thanks to Senator Blutarsky for the heads up on that one.

Scott Wolf of the Los Angeles Daily News makes his case for keeping Georgia #1 in the AP poll.
For the record, if anyone was crazy enough to give me a vote, I would put the Dawgs at #3 behind USC and Oklahoma. I just think the guy makes an interesting point.

He likes us, he […]

Ok, its been more than 24 hours and I have had time to collect my thoughts and come to grips with the fact that my Georgia Bulldogs nearly blew it against the Gamecocks. The same Gamecock team that has lost consecutive games to Vanderbilt nearly toppled the nation’s number 2 ranked team. Of […]

Thanks to Paul Westerdawg, we have a new recording of Pulpwood Smith previewing the UGA - South Carolina game this weekend.
For those that don’t know, Pulpwood is a legendary running back that led the Dawgs in rushing in 1984. He then fell victim to academics and was scarcely heard from again. […]

This is too good to pass on. Orson over at EDSBS has a clip via the Atlanta Journal Constitution, of everyone’s favorite hurdler, Knowshon Moreno. Yes, the man who can leap standing MAC defenders in a single bound is also fond of Lego’s and likes listening to Korn and Limp Bizkit in his […]

Week One: What we learned.
It’s finally here. No more Olympics, no more baseball (for me anyway), no more scanning the Internet for a sliver of news about your favorite team. Our favorite time of the year is finally upon us again and I couldn’t be happier.
So, after one week of glorious […]

“We’re number 1 – No you’re not.”
Ok, so it was fun while it lasted. The University of Georgia was dropped from the number one slot in both major polls today as a result of their win against Georgia Southern. Wait, what? They won and were dropped from the #1 spot? […]

Let me start this out by introducing myself briefly. My name is Mike (mdr), I am a graduate of the University of Georgia, and my family has had season tickets for over 30 years. So clearly you can see where my loyalties lie. A couple of weeks ago, a writer for this […]
