Over at Bulldog Illustrated, somebody asks the musical question,
I want you to ask yourself, with an open mind, “what is there to lose if Hutson Mason started the North Texas game?”
Well, certainly not my sense of humor. And after all, if anything went wrong, “… you would have the best backup quarterback in college football (history?) prepared to take the game over right away”.
The reason this needs to be done? To satisfy our curiosity (“Would you like to see what Mason can do with the first-team offense, against a first-team defense of a team that may or may not be considered “low-risk?””).
But why think so small? Why start any senior player? (Hell, that’s what you’ve got Senior Day for.) We need to see what all the frisky backups can do against an opponent’s first team. Artie Lynch, sit your ass down. Chris Burnette, we’ll call you when we need you. Garrison Smith, you’re not gonna be here in a few months anyway, so grab some bench.
And you thought coaching was hard.

UPDATE: By the way,
Georgia’s last game against a Conference USA team didn’t go so well.
UCF beat the Bulldogs 10-6 in the Liberty Bowl in 2010.
The Mean Green defensive coordinator is John Skladany, who was linebackers coach for UCF when it beat the Bulldogs. Georgia receiver Rantavious Wooten learned that when he did research on this week’s opponent.

that’d be my thought too. If we’d played a week ago, then it’d make some sense. But these guys just had a week off, and some work to stay sharp isn’t a bad idea. Now, if we have a comfortable lead at half time, I’d be fine with the staff telling Murray, Smith, Herrera, Burnette, Gurley, Swann, etc they can leave their shoulder pads in the locker room. Then would be a great time to give the second and third stringers extensive work and long looks. But the starters should get at least a half imo.

What a stupid post. First of all, Aaron Murray is the starting quarterback. He deserves the start. They keep track of such things in statistics, and he deserves it. Second, we’ve already had one off week. Why in the world would you want to further disrupt the brutal rhythm and efficiency of the offense by having the guy who will be starting next week against LSU not on the field? Because I don’t care what the cult of Hutson believes, if he was better than Murray he would be playing and he’s not. He will not be starting next week against LSU. So why mess things up?

Does anyone get the sense that we are taking this patsy game more seriously than others? I don’t recall similar quotes about FAU or Buffalo a year ago. Obviously, the points that Richt raises are in fact true. North Texas is more of a veteran team. They have a decent QB, etc. I am not suggesting that our guys are going to be as focused as they can be nor will the energy in Sanford Stadium be particularly high, but I don’t think we are going to come out totally flat either. My guess is the fact that we have had an off week, which arguable was well timed assuming we don’t have a lot of bumps and bruises Saturday, will have our guys a bit more excited simply because they want the opportunity to play.

“In UGA’s 2005 season, fifth-year quarterback DJ Shockley took the quarterback throne from super-successful four-year starter David Greene. Shockley had seen plenty of significant snaps throughout his three playing seasons as a backup. He led those 2005 Dawgs to a 10-3 record which included an SEC Championship and a trip to the Sugar Bowl.”
I’d argue that Shock wasn’t a back up. Back-ups don’t come into the game to spell the most winneringest QB in college football history on drives. And Shock’s record was 10-2 as a starter…details.
“In UGA’s 2009 season, fifth-year quarterback Joe Cox took the quarterback throne from the NFL’s first overall draft pick Matthew Stafford. Cox only saw playing time during his first three playing seasons in “garbage time” (except for a comeback win against a mediocre Colorado when Stafford went down with an injury in 2006)”
Uhh…that’s not correct. Joe started the game at Ole Miss the week after the Colorado game. And pinning the Independence bowl on Joe Cox not getting enough snaps with the 1st team is ignorant.

Folks have selective memory of most things. I’m guilty of it. During 2002, Shockley had a 152 passer rating for the season and helped key the wins against Clemson, Kentucky, and FSU? I thought the 2 QB system wasn’t the best way to utilize either player at the time, but it’s hard to argue with the results unless you think we go undefeated in 2002 or 2004 by not doing it…and that’s a long argument based upon the Clemson game in 2002 and Shockley basically keeping us in the 2004 Tennessee game that UGA lost.

Hey guys!
I am the author of the post mentioned and linked to above.
First and foremost, thank you for reading Bulldawg Illustrated. By linking this you have given us a (albeit small) spike in traffic today. Always nice to show our legitimate advertisers.
For those who think it’s a bad idea to start Mason over Murray, I wholeheartedly agree with you! However, one thing we do at Bulldawg Illustrated, in lieu of linking other blog’s and publication’s material attached to a snarky comment, is GENERATE our own material.
As a credentialed publication through the University of Georgia Athletics Association, you may note plenty of articles I write for Bulldawg Illustrated chalked full of quotes, photos, videos, interviews, and ideas that I gather at the Butts-Mehre building, the Sanford Stadium press box, the sidelines between the hedges, and in the locker rooms immediately after games.
You may have noticed this is a bye week. Legitimate material for Bulldawg Illustrated to publish is not as easy to come across as trolling The Dawgbone and finding anything we can to pump our chests over, link to, and make a comment declaring the individual who authored it as a fool.
For the couple of you who did read past the headline of my article, and were able to figure out that this was simply a creative post in attempts to strike conversation within a very large, loyal, positive, and interactive Bulldawg Illustrated following, I commend you.
Call me a fool, an idiot, or a moron all you want for putting together an imaginative piece during a slow week. But being a fool, an idiot, or a moron did not slow me down from being accepted into the Grady School of Journalism at the University of Georgia, or prevent me from having a drive to come up with a blog post full of my own ideas and writings. You may notice there is not a single link in there.
Once again, however, thank you for the link, and I notice that my ability to spark conversation within a group who shame similar interests was able to trickle into the following here. So in a sense, “you’re welcome.”
Have a great day, folks. I am glad to see this site still exists. I had forgotten about it a long, long time ago.

If your site has something that people want, the traffic will be there.
I have heard of BI, but your article was the first I have read. I found it amusing, and I don’t regret the time I spent reading it and the associated comments. I chose to register and comment there, participating in the conversation because the comments seemed civil enough and I thought I had a point of rebuttal I felt worthy of sharing (even though I only graduated from Terry… :().
I wouldn’t have thought another thought, except that you come over here to denigrate the author of this blog whom a lot of us feel is worthy of our daily attention… specifically for his opinions, his realistic view of the Dawgs, and his adherence to reasonable discourse. The Good Senator lets us vent, he lets us be silly, and he even lets us be stupid. I, for one, appreciate his blog and the community that regularly participates. I don’t appreciate your condescending tone or the insinuation that all the Senator does is ride off the coattails of “legitimate” journalists.
Besides, journalism is dead. Your own article, and your suggestion that you wrote it to fabricate conversation, is why journalism is dead. Fact reporting and opinion-ating are no longer mutually exclusive. Who gets the facts is largely irrelevant. As far as opinions go, I like to read the Senator’s. Although I disagreed with your premise in this one article, I would read yours again if I happened upon it (ironically, the greatest likelihood of that happening would be if the Senator linked to it again). I would suggest you take a cue from ECDawg: thank people for stopping by and encourage them to do so again rather than lashing out.

I do have to agree that the original GTP post and the comments were unnecessarily snarky at best and meanspirited at worst, particularly given that Bulldog Illustrated is a decent website that I enjoy visiting that has pretty good taste in football, music, and has a good sense of humor, too. Whatever you may have thought of the original BI post, sometimes it’s best not to say anything at all, especially about your hairy brethren who seem to be a pretty amiable group.
I agree that we ought to start Murray on Saturday, for all the reasons posted here. But earlier this summer I also casually wondered if CMR would give Mason a start against lesser competition, even if he only kept him in for the first drive, say, as a way to give a nod to a kid who’s been loyal to the program, send a good message to recruits, improve team morale, whatever. And no, that kind of nod wouldn’t have to be limited to QB’s – if K. Houston hadn’t won his spot, I wondered if Richt would put him in for the first play of the USc game anyway.
Finally, if we can’t beat North Texas under the “worst” of circumstances, or if we’re afraid of them getting mad at us for starting our backup, we have not progressed as far past the UCF game as I thought. Again, I’m not advocating for Mason or any backups to start, and I don’t think he’s Murray’s equal, but it’s also not the craziest thing I’ve ever heard.

tm, first off, thanks very much for finding us. I hope you’ll stick around and contribute.
A couple of things in response to your comment. First, as far as what LB thought, this is from his post: “I think by now you know my vote, and it’s going for Hutson Mason to start this Saturday.” That’s why you see the header on my post, because I had a hard time believing he was serious about that. If I understand him correctly by his comment here, it seems I was right.
As far as not directing anything towards LB personally, my comment was in the context of the original post. Once LB came over here and proceeded to behave the way he did in his comment, that’s what generated the personal sarcasm. I don’t know how it works with you, but if somebody comes in my house and refuses to behave considerately, I’m going to call the person out. Had LB not done so, you wouldn’t have seen any comment from me about him.
I try very hard to separate somebody’s opinion from the person him or herself when I post. The former is fair game for mockery, attack, or whatever; the latter shouldn’t be, if it’s just about what somebody wrote or said. Once somebody behaves badly, though, that can change things. (Especially if they behave badly here. 😉 )
I freely confess to being a horribly cynical, snarky blogger. But I do attempt to respect certain limits. And if I mess up on that, I have no problem with being called out for it.
