The Dawgs Won...

...but it was about as decisive as a... I can't think of a good metaphor... a dog between two bones... any suggestions are welcome.

At times, Stafford and company appeared dominant. The stalls and, from my perspective, strange play calls started inside the twenty (for that matter, the defense didn't seem to be able to do any stopping inside the twenty either). It's like Georgia was successful with their normal run/play action pass offense and then would throw in these strange wrinkles inside the red zone.

What started as a team ranked 1 with a lot of promise is ending as a team that hopefully will improve enough to get into the Capital One Bowl and land in the top 5. the good thing is that their schedule still allows for them to land in the SEC Championship Game, and with enough other one loss teams, maybe earn a spot in the National Title Game with a loss. But watching them and watching other teams (USC, Oklahoma, etc.), I just don't think they got what it takes.

That said, LSU plays Florida tonight. 11 vs. 3. Should be a solid game. In between changing diapers and cleaning up the house, I hope to catch a good chunk of it.

I must break my 1 yr and 3 month silence...

I'm so frustrated watching the Dawgs play the Vols. It seems like there is too much miscommunication and just undisciplined play. We should have this game 35 to 7 right now at the very least. By 'we' I mean Georgia. I didn't even go to the school, so I should watch my pronouns.

Were I able to interview somebody, I'd probably ask about if Stafford or the receiver had the play correct on the interception in the endzone. It seems like once the Dawgs have gotten into the red zone, they've just brain farted. Frustrating. It feels like we're better than a 14 to 7 victory over SC. Definitely better than the loss to Alabama. And this feels similar. Like the Dawgs just can't seem to put together a complete game.

I'll update this as the game goes.... And now the laundry is flying. Flags everywhere. Dang it. Another penalty.
