Grab that knife and fork and go, folks.
- I’m sorry, but if you’re a Georgia fan who can’t appreciate morale talk from Gator coaches, there’s something wrong with you.
- Slow, but steady, signs of statistical improvement from Georgia’s defense.
- The Carl Pelini firing story sounds like it’s about to turn ugly.
- The Code of Quayvon.
- Non-defensive points given up by SEC teams in 2013 – it’s as ugly as you’d expect.
- Is this what a Nick Saban kiss of death sounds like?
- Coaches’ buyouts and the IRS.
- I always like to hear talk like this from Georgia athletes: “To graduate from Georgia, a lot of doors open up for careers and job wise, so you’ve got to think life after football,” Mauger said.
- Non-football, but very cool: 23 newly discovered photographs of The Rolling Stones, all apparently taken during their 1965 tour through Georgia and Florida.

The strength of schedule for UGA in 2013 was front-loaded. Obviously the defensive statistics improved as the scheduled teams got weaker. They will look even better after Appy State and UK.

“Alabama lured Saban from the Miami Dolphins on Wednesday, ending five weeks of denials and two days of deliberation.

If anyone would have told me at the beginning of 2013 that we would have losses against Vandy and Missouri and nervous about Auburn I would have chuckled. Especially if they would have included wins against uSC and Florida in that prediction. Yet here we are. Desperate to win these last four.

I love this part of the morale article…
Durkin said that middle linebacker Antonio Morrison is not the player who missed the assignment that led to UGA tailback Todd Gurley’s 73-yard touchdown on a screen pass last Saturday.
“That wasn’t Morrison. It was not,” Durkin said. “It was an error in coverage on it. That’s on all of us. Our defense, coaches, all of us all together. We didn’t get it done. We actually got the look we wanted, and it was looking good before the snap.”
the funny thing is Gary D in the booth talked about how Aaron saw exactly what he was looking for and checked in to the throw to TG3.
I pray this coaching stays at UF for a long time. I can only hope they strive to get more looks like that because as great a talent as TG3 is i am pretty sure 22, 15, Chubb, or Michel also would have taken that pass to the end zone given how wide open the middle of the field was.

I think maybe no one down in Hog Town has a clear picture of much. Because if they term what AM-to-Gurley did to them a “screen pass” then I am in fact Ghengis Khan. (And I’m pretty sure that just the O-neg. blood doesn’t get me that title).

From what I saw last night, UGA needs to draw Oklahoma in a bowl somewhere. Big Game Bob’s offense looked more impotent than FU. And that team beat Notre Dame and was ranked in the Top 10? Drumbeats should be loud in Norman this week as the natives have to restless.
One other observation, Mariota shot down the draft list last night, amazing what applying some pressure to a QB can do in exposing flaws. I have seen similar sign with McCarron, makes you appreciate the job Aaron has one over his time at UGA with mediocre, and some times bad, protection in so many games in his four years. Mariota had the Bambi in the head lights look most of the game
