Whoop!
So I understand there will be an alarm, but what will it sound like??

On the Blackout
If you had come up to me after UGA lost to South Carolina in the 2nd week of the season, or after Georgia was manhandled by Tennessee in Knoxville, and said that we would beat both Florida and Auburn this season, I would have said you’re crazy. But the Dawgs have brought out a kind of intensity that this team hasn’t played with in a long time.
You can call it gimicky coaching moves or say that this won’t last, but the truth of it is these guys are winning and they’re psyched about it. They’re still young guys and it was time to light a fire under them and nobody could have done this better than Coach Richt. He should be coach of the year after the way he’s turned around this program from those two losses. Especially after getting destroyed by Tennessee and then barely squeaking by Vandy.
He’s turned a lackluster ‘At least we have next year’ season into a great one.
And the way Knowshon Moreno is playing, there could be Heisman coming his way as soon as next year. The kid is simply amazing and the best running back to come our way since Herschel. With him and Thomas Brown both healthy I’m very excited about the rest of the season. I can’t take anything away from Stafford either, he’s really showing the type of QB that he came here to be and not letting early mistakes dictate the rest of the game.
As far as the rest of the year goes, I’d really like a chance at playing LSU in the SEC championship, but also have to be realistic that the best we can do is the Sugar Bowl. If UT were to win out and play LSU in the SEC, they’d likely lose and by our higher ranking we’d probably go to the Sugar. So while it would be sweet to have a shot at LSU, I really question whether or not we could beat them.
But winning the SEC over the #1 ranked team sure would be sweet.
