I hate him......but he is probably one of the top 3 coaches of all time in college football. He changed the game in the SEC. And considering what he has done at SC (a fire dumpster) is nothing short of spectacular. Just look at SC's history.

Saban has TOTAL control of the Bama program. No other coach in the SEC comes close to that type of control from A to Z. I wish Richt had at least half the control of his program does that Bama has. UGA would dominate the East. UGA was the last team to get a freaking nutritionist for crying out loud and we have the most profitable Athletic department in the country. Pitiful. Pat Dye controls AU. No two ways about it. |

I think this game goes down to the wire. Obviously I will be rooting for UGA, but I think UGA's offense matches up really really well vs. Bama's D. The key is UGA's OL vs Bama's pressure. If Bama can pressure Murray, we will have a long day. If not, Bama is in trouble. I think the UGA D can hold their own vs. Bama's D as they are finally playing with an edge. This game boils down to UGA's qb Murray plain and simple. |

Granted, I am biased......but I like how UGA matches up against Bama. We are probably the most balanced team in the SEC. Our D is finally coming around and I think Bama has chinks in the armor. Now I think UGA will have to play a superb game, but I think they will. The key matchup is Bama's DL vs. UGA's OL. UGA's OL has been up and down all season. After being worked by SC's front four, they have played well other than at UK. I think UGA has finally found.....yes after 11 games.....5 guys on the OL that mesh really well, and it has paid off the last 2-3 games. If UGA gets above average OL play (which has been an anomaly during Richts tenure) UGA can win this game. If Bama is allowed to get pressure on the QB with its front 4 or 5, UGA will get abused. Push, and the game will go down to the wire. UGA has veterans across the board on D. While the D has played miserably the first part of the schedule, they have come on strong. I expect that to continue til the end of the season. As such, I think our D can contain Bama's O to keep us in it. That is why, if UGA's OL holds their own, I think UGA pulls it out. Any for the others, no way that line opens with Bama a 9 or 10 pt fave. More like 4.5 to 5. |

Tech is worse this year than they were last year. UGA will take Tech to the woodshed just like they did a few years back when they scored 50 plus. Remember, UGA still has something to play for here. Anybody taking the points has stones, big ones.

The issue is Tech's D. They can't tackle and let WRs run open all day long. They couldn't even get to Duke's qb. What do you think Murray is going to do with that secondary? If this game was at Tech, at night, then the points would be interesting. But, in Athens, and UGA still playing for something........lay the points. UGA BIG........and I mean BIG. |

You really let your blind hate get in the way of studying the sport. Obviously boom is biased, and I respect his religion as a Clemson fan. I too am biased for UGA. However, I am not blinded by my red and black colors. Boom will get his shot first of next year when Clemson plays UGA. Clemson better find a d in the offseason though. With regard to our SC loss, we played pathetic. But there were things leading up to that game internally that UGA couldn't control. Would it have changed the outcome, doubtful. Also, given UGA's history in Columbia, that game is always tough regardless of talent and records. Similarly, UGA's trips to Kentucky. Not sure how to explain that. But I like how UGA is being downplayed. We match up really well with Bama. I think with our balance, we can potentially give Bama's d fits. And for boom to suggest that Tech will upset us proves his agenda. UGA scores 50 on that putrid d, which is just slightly worse than Clemson's. Good luck to u boom, but SC's front 4 on D will b eating Clemson's lunch all day long.

Great game by Boise. D is for real. There is a reason why Boise St. wins these games. Prepared, determined and disciplined. Obviously I had hoped the outcome would be different, however this isn't about UGA........this is about Boise St. They deserve their #5 ranking b/c they are really, really good. Will be fun to see if they can run the table. Great game Broncos and good luck the rest of the way. |

They also had very poor execution inside the 20's settling for way too many fg's If there was one thing I noticed about Richt, it was the offense last year just seemed to be very predictable. He ran a lot of play actions and modest runs, and there was no spark to this team. I just think things have caught up with Richt, discipline problems, lack of motivation, and a lack of direction. I think its time for UGA to go get one of the top assistants from the other powerhouse schools. LMAO....they will be completely outclassed by Boise in their home state on Saturday Dumb. Just dumb. |

One can not measure or predict heart or emotional intensity or discipline-on and off the field. And this is where Petersen appears to excel and Richt fell flat the last few yrs. Let's not forget for 08 and 09 UGA was the 2nd and 3rd most penalized team in the nation! And to cap it off,had 11 players arrested last year. ELEVEN. Hence,obviously someone lost control of the team. And now,according to Jimmy,Richt has that all under control. Show me first-on and off the field.
btw I am a UGA grad. Just fed up.
No arrests this year. Different tone set right after the bowl game with new S&C regimen. Again, I can't speak enough of how UGA's strength and conditioning was subpar the last few years. Simply pathetic. Also, the new AD in McGarrity helps a ton. Will not get into specifics. I'll say this, UGA - Richt rested on their laurels after the 2007 season. They 'thought' it would b easy.....lure recruits for the UGA name. Richt thought for sure one of Stafford or Moreno would stay. That didn't happen. Add to the fact the 08 and 09 recruiting class stunk to high heaven, and you get a 6-7 year last year. Focus has been restored, bad weight removed and finishing the UGA way an expectation. You have legit concerns as well as others. Hell, I wanted the entire coaching staff to be fired after the UCF bowl fiasco. However, I knew of some changes coming and they have taken foot. It can only get better from last year. And from all accounts through spring and camp, it seems to have worked. But for the last time I post on this topic, there is a reason UGA took this game. And everyone will see why on 9/3. |

With the recruiting haul, there has been a long awaited attitude adjustment......and it started right after the bowl game with Strengh and Conditioning. I can't stress enough how AWFUL UGAs S&C has been the past two seasons. Add to it the pitiful recruiting efforts and busts in the 08 and 09 classes, and you get what UGA produced last year.......crap. But, when you look at the canvas, there is a reason why UGA took this game.....period. RB....don't worry.....Crowell would've been starter last year if he would have been on campus. OL, starting 5 is super, depth is an issue as we are young....but talented. Nearly all of the past year recruits will get playing time. Boise will bear the red and black and get knocked back to reality being a mid major thankfully. Cant wait. |

Don't fight it, profit from it.
Yeah, UGA has finally put recruiting back as a priority since last year. Our recruiting classes in 08 and 09 were not up to what UGA is used to and it caught up to us in a hurry last year. Of course our S&C dept was as bad as my jr high team. That has been taken care of as well. I went to UGA, have friends still there and know the ins and outs. That is all I will divulge. But hear this.....and I have said it on here before......there is a reason Richt took this game. Last year was a fluke. UGA and Richt have been hammered on......rightfully so. But again, UGA took this game for a reason. If you look at the starters vs starters in this game, UGA has every edge. I remember the sugar bowl vs Hawaii. On the field, and UGA was just bigger, faster and stronger. I made the largest wager I've ever made on UGA after watching Colt not even come close to completing a pass in warmups. Funny! Even Jimmy Johnson said UGA could score 75 if they wanted. LOL!!!!! This Boise squad is better than the 05 team. But I would put them equal to the Hawaii squad of 07. UGA showed up to pummel Hawaii b/c all of the pundits said Hawaii was going to pull the upset. Much like this game, you r hearing the same. Boise this, Boise that. Our kids know this......and UGA will again be ready.

I have to admit I LOLed when I read that. I agree with the article about Georgia's defense. Georgia will be the biggest, fastest most athletic defense Moore has ever faced. He'll be throwing to two new WRs who will be facing a SEC defense that returns their entire secondary - a secondary that ranked 17th best in the nation playing against real football teams. That's why I have predicted Boise won't score more than 14 points in this game. @ugadog - people will know who Marlon Brown is after the Boise game. He's not AJ Green, but he's going to be very good. I've said the exact same thing about UGA's o-line. Their starters are huge and nasty, they just don't have much behind them. Their lack of depth along the o-line will be no factor in this game however.
TKing can hold his own. Also, a super freshman Malcolm Mitchell is on campus as a WR and is turning heads. Seems he will be the deep threat. OL has depth, just young. All redshirts or true freshman. As long as the injury bug stays away, our OL will b just fine. Not to mention we are 3 deep at TE. Two of the TE's can play WR. So I am not worried about O production. Just have to hold onto the ball. Turnoves late in games last year hurt us - cost us 4 games. UGA will soon put an end to the Boise St. hype forever. |
