Georgia Bulldogs. 2012 SEC East and state champions.
Every year we say this, but this season is truly flying by. The Dawgs only have four regular season games remaining. Going 3-1 *should* be enough to get in the playoffs. As the leaves turn and the temps drop, let’s take a look at who is making headlines around the SEC. Change at Auburn Auburn […]

Saturday will be a noise that makes it hard for one to hear themselves think when Georgia tees it up in Starkville against Mississippi State. Even a novice SEC fan knows that a visiting team encounters in good ol’ Stark Vegas – those darned cowbells. The Bizarro Dawgs even got an exception in 2010 to […]

It’s once again time to take a lingering look around the SEC landscape and see which craters are smoking the most. That’s right, it’s the SEC in a Sentence, brought to you this week by Crazy Leroy’s Executive Search Service, guaranteed to deliver candidates rather than can’tdidates. Alabama: Gleefully watched Auburn fire its coach and […]

I sincerely hope that you are spending the entirety of your Monday working your way through the contacts list on your phone, identifying those you know with even a fleeting, tangential relationship to the University of Florida and sending them cheery “Just thinking of you! How was your weekend?” texts. But if you have the […]

Some number of months ago, Podunk’s youngest (Podunkpup) warned me that he would be in Georgia to help his (step)sister celebrate her nuptials. At the time, I asked if he would be able to stay for the WLOCP, and then he said he would not, as his employer would require his presence back in Oklahoma […]

If you’ve seen it once, you’ve seen it a thousand times. A college football coach stands lonely on the sideline, deep in his thoughts. There’s no way he’s leading his team back from this one. He knows it. The players know it. The guy five Miller Lites in up in the nosebleeds knows it. And […]

You don’t claw your way out of Duval County with your fifth straight win in the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party without putting together a total team effort. But even then some players are bound to distinguish themselves over and above their teammates, refusing to lose to a pack of jort wearing New Jerseyans. Those […]

Stop me if you’ve heard this one. This afternoon the Georgia Bulldogs sashayed into EverBank Field in Jacksonville as a solid favorite against a flailing Florida team. They proceeded to come within a whisper of losing to that flailing Florida team over and over again. Georgia had more penalties than the Gators and for more […]

Raise your hand if you knew this one was going to be a battle. The Florida Gators are playing hard for interim coach Billy Gonzalez, they’ve gotten the benefit of a couple of interesting calls, and the Bulldog secondary chipped in with a couple of blown coverages. A sloppy, slightly chippy thirty minutes of football […]

Many of us have lamented the Bulldogs’ slow first half starts this season. If ever there were a team against whom the Dawgs should come out firing it would be this Gator team. And, I hope this doesn’t sound too Munsonian, they really need to come out hot. This Florida team has some great athletes. […]

It’s game day, Dawgs! Your Georgia Bulldogs will shortly take on the Florida Gators in the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party, gracing the turf at EverBank Field for the last time until 2028. In short, we need to make this one count. To beat the Gators so badly the construction crews are finding shreds of […]

The days get shorter and the weather gets colder, and pumpkins adorn the stoops of houses. A familiar dread creeps into the heart as I anxiously await the return of a horrific menace. But I’m not worried about zombies, witches, or any other fictional beasties. It’s a very real horror that quickens my pulse and […]

If your Georgia Bulldogs are returning to action looking to shake off the bye week rust against a bitter historic rival with nothing to lose under an interim coach you could probably use a drink. I can help you with that. The Florida game is a very special one for me as a Bulldog fan. […]

I’m not one to keep up with the new generation’s slang, but I feel like this title wrote itself. The MVP of the NFL Dawgs this week was without question former running back James Cook. Cook had a monster game in which he ran for 218 yards and two touchdowns in a 40-9 blowout victory […]

Here’s why I’m NOT worried about Saturday afternoon when the red and black meet the ugly orange with a wildly mismatched blue: 1. Florida really doesn’t have a rushing game; they’ve only had 3 running plays greater than 20 yards all season (and none greater than 30). This adds up to only 4 yards a […]

There’s a new Sheriff in Gainesville, FL, and he goes by the name of Who Cares Because He Probably Won’t Be There Very Long. The true impact that the Billy Napier firing has on Georgia football remains to be seen. But what we do know is that this means Kirby Smart has a chance to […]

There are currently twelve (12!) FBS College Football programs without a permanent head coach before November. Big buyout numbers getting tossed around like actual dollars always makes me think about how I’m not coaching LSU for free like a chump. With seats heating up every day, there may be more firings before anyone finds “their […]

It’s Cocktail Party week. And yes, it is will always be the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party; the only other acceptable name is the Georgia-Florida Game. As we prepare to watch on tv, head to Jacksonville, visit the great drinking hole that is Brogen’s, prepare for the debaucherous St. Simons tradition of Frat Beach, or […]

Slogans and catch phrases have a shelf life of their own, even for programs like Georgia. Attack The Day, Keep Chopping Wood…you still hear those mentioned, but not as much as they were during their apex of use. These days, there’s another one of emphasis: “do simple better.” That timing fits now for a defensive […]

It’s once again time for the SEC in a Sentence, in which I take stock of each SEC football team’s current position in the league firmament. We’ve reached the point in the season in which teams have played enough football to establish something akin to an identity. Some of them are even pressing those identities […]

Welcome to Hate Week Tuesday, Bulldog fans and gator haters! Even if you don’t bleed red & black, you’re welcome if you’re here just to pile on the Sunshine State Saurians. We don’t discriminate when it comes to mocking the shark desiring, blue polo wearing, non-ironic mullet brandishing, Kerwin Bell spiking, Ron Zooking booger eaters. […]
