Quote Of The Day
-
“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23

AM singlehandedly killing us. Why is MM bringin KO out – some coach, any coach, tell him all he needs to do is go on a knee and we’d start on the 25. At least D came to play, but they’ve rarely been off the field.

I am now certain that Murray is on the take. No possible way he is such a mental midget.
LikeLike
This game is a mess on both sides of the ball. All the insanity is almost worth it if it means we get our awesome D back.
I feel for Murray, I really do, love that kid and think he’s a DGD, but being a DGD doesn’t mean you get automatic playing time. Sometimes you can be a DGD and be #2 on the depth chart.
As the announcers have indicated, Murray is not even making “good” mistakes, these are head mistakes, inscrutable decision-making under pressure, and time in the SEC and seasoning does not seem to have tempered this. Maybe it could have gone a different way, some turning point last year or something, but even if it were possible, is there any way this kid can mentally leave a half like this behind him and lead this team anywhere meaningful this season? I hope so, but I am doubtful.
It may not have been before, but at some point this October it has become a legit question to ask if Mason is wired to simply keep a level head back there. He doesn’t have to put up Murray’s numbers against inferior opponents for us to beat them, he just has to maintain in the big games.
If Mason has shown any ability at all, I’m not sure what more he has to do or what less Murray must do in order for Mason to earn some playing time…and if you’re going to consider burning Mason’s RS, I think the second half of this game has to be a consideration.
Is that crazy?
LikeLike
And part of me says, the kid just got some pretty bad news about his dad – maybe part of being “Georgia” instead of some other program is you keep your starting QB in that situation, win or lose, when he’s obviously going through a rough stretch. I don’t know what the right answer is, there.
LikeLike
It’s hard for me to buy into the “Aaron Murray can’t win big games” line, but the evidence is just getting to be overwhelming. I love the guy, but damn.
QB rating against SC: 58.6.
QB rating so far today: 10.7.
Avg QB rating for the other 6 game: 192.8.
And the fact that Mitchell is still returning *any* kind of kick tells me that we’ve either got a serious talent problem, or the coaches are seriously incompetent on this point. If he’s not coughing the ball up, he’s *at least* making a terrible decision of some sort. At this point, I’d rather us just have nobody returning kickoffs at all. Just have someone standing at the 5, and if it goes over his head, let it go.

Also, when the O came back after the 3rd INT with 4 minutes left, I DO blame Bobo for the sissyfied playcalling.
Anybody that has watched Georgia football over the last few years – including Florida’s coaching staff – knew we were going to tuck our tails and try a couple of half-hearted runs because we are a bunch of fraidy cats and were scared we might make another mistake. And we fooled nobody.
I think if you were even going to run Murray out there again, let him throw on first and second down while the pressure is low and show some confidence in him right out of the gate. Instead, we ran twice and then again put Murray in a 3rd down situation where he had it all on his shoulders.
And we followed the exact same pattern on our first two sets of downs in the second half. I get that the only thing that has worked thus far is the run, but it’s not going to keep working unless there is a threat of a pass.

Oh, that’s right, because any analysis of a player’s shortcomings, regardless of how adamantly, genuinely you say you appreciate their effort in the same post, must be “hate”.
If your post is meant to suggest that last drive somehow means AM “pulled one out” – I would disagree. We are all happy AM had a great drive at the end, I hope that kid does amazing things the rest of this year and wish him nothing but great things. He is one of my favorite players. ,
But if you want to force the issue instead of just being relieved for Georgia and AM like the rest of us, then we can open up the floor to talk about the uncomfortable truth: Georgia won this one in spite of Aaron Murray.
LikeLike
I’d agree. I like Murray and think he’s a DGD, but that doesn’t mean that he didn’t play like crap except for one drive. The way the Defense was turning Florida over this game could have been a blowout if he’d been even minorly competent in the first 3 and a half quarters.
LikeLike
Agree. AM happened to be on the winning team. His performance was awful – particularly when you take into acount he’s a 4th year junior. The kid is smart and has great tools – why he falls apart in big games needs to be addressed. We have a chance to win it ALL. Can’t do it without AM.

You’re moving the goalposts. Your original post suggested everyone who voiced frustration over AM’s performance was suddenly eating crow. Now, realizing you can’t support that, I guess you have moved on to evaluating our ability to “analyze”.

There is another UGA blog that I stopped going to because they constantly give warning after warning because of supposed infractions of civility. It is exhausting to read and annoying.
Most of us at GTP used to be pretty good about self-regulating, and we could disagree without getting nasty, but that has really changed over the last few weeks. We seem to have divided firmly into two camps – you’re either a Disney Dawg or a Dismal Dawg, nothing in between, and there is a lot of unnecessary name calling and impoliteness. I hope we can turn it around, because it’s getting to be like the vent on nights like tonight.
LikeLike
CD, you can turn it around by quitting being ridiculous. Those of you who openly advocated a coaching change the same week that the Dawgs were 6-1 and playing for the lead in the SEC East were not only being outright stupid but were undermining the program as well. Perhaps that was not your intention CD but I sometimes wonder if some of the others are actually plants from other programs like Tech or Florida (I’m looking right at Carolinadawg) trying to stir up insurrection in our ranks.
LikeLike
CD, I’ve read some of your posts supporting the Dawgs, but you have to get over yourself concerning Murray. If you don’t know after 3 yrs that Aaron has a down game once in a while, then review to join the rest of Dawg Nation. Continuing to point out his downer game as an indication of overall ability makes you look as if you don’t know Murray like everyone else does. He ain’t perfect, he pulls us through many games that we would lose with someone else in there and his body of work doesn’t need a harangue about one game. It is self-defeating and a downer to read on an upper day.
The replies you are getting are deserved since you stubbornly keep pushing the anti-Murray button. You aren’t convincing any one of anything, only looking foolishly hardheaded.
I’ve seen your good stuff and “analysis” on here is used in the place of logic. No one is buying it and you are better than this.
LikeLike
First, suggesting I have a lot of anti-Murray posts is insane – that’s in your head – I’m not sure I’ve ever given him any real grief on here, so I don’t know what you’re talking about. And I’m almost positive I’ve never brought up Mason before.
And you missed the point. It’s not that Murray has a down game every once in a while. It’s that Murray does not do well in the bigger games. It doesn’t mean I hate him. It doesn’t mean I devalue his work in games like the KY game or question his manhood or whatever. I’m just curious if Mason would be more even-tempered, and where we might never see a stat-fest like the KY game with Mason, it might be that he would be more workmanlike in the big games. And I posed the question in a very, very nice way.
That’s all I asked. I don’t think you can say I’m not being a DGD when I am simply talking about personnel possibilities from among QB’s who all wear the G. It’s not like I’m wishing we had some other team’s QB. Good grief.

Okay comrades. Warmth, sweetness, light, and harmony to all, as long as you agree with me.
Murray stank up the joint but came through in the clutch.The first INT was a tip and he probably got that SC feeling. The second was a tip, but it was an off balance throw behind the receiver. The third was a plain old bad throw.
Our D was as stout as I’ve seen since the beginning of 2005, but we should thank Florida too. They only punted 3 times, so the turnovers helped mightily.
I was moaning all week that we lack toughness. I stand corrected.

The D was terrific. You could easily see fu players were stunned we hit so hard and flew to the ball. Fu players came to run their mouths, Dawg players came to smash their mouths!!
Although AM’s first 2 INT’s were tipped, keep in mind he threw into heavy coverage. This kid has real problems with big games, and CMB & CMR need to put a stop to it.
