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.
