How does Shane Beamer feel about being early 24 point underdogs to Georgia?
“Our guys are fueled by disrespect.”

Chaser.
Georgia was favored by 25 points last year in Columbia & Shane Beamer’s guys were so fueled by the disrespect that they only lost by 41. https://t.co/dzYW5y0XBz

Shane Beamer was asked if he sensed any give up in his team following todays loss to Georgia.

Get The Picture 
I don’t begrudge Beamer defending his players. What is any coach going to say? “Yes, of course they gave up. We were playing against a college team stocked with NFL players. Wouldn’t you give up?” Great way to lose a locker room.
But yeah, the “disrespect” juice game will only get you so far without really good players. (We know first hand what happens when a coach with a respectable roster can manufacture “disrespect.”)

“Hi Shane, The State reporter here from Columbia with a follow up question. As a reminder the clock will be running after 1st downs this fall, so, Shane knowing that, what is the respect-worthy, alternate spread you suggest that you will cover? I’ll sit down & listen….”

That game where if we played a team with a pulse, we would have lost by 30 and it took double overtime to lose to South Carolina. There were some bad losses Kirby’s first year, but that game is right there with the Vandy homecoming, the failure to show up in Oxford, and the win over Nicholls as the worst losses in the Kirby era.

He should have gone to College of Charleston, female talent there is insane and a campus in downtown Charleston is light years ahead of a campus in downtown Columbia. My daughter was accepted to College of Charleston before she was accepted to Georgia. When we went to visit CoC, I told her if she didn’t want to go there, I did. We both really liked the place but when Georgia sent her an acceptance there was no question where she was going.

Hard agree. Grew up on HHI and folks live in Charleston now. Every year it seems to win Condé Nast’s best place to live which always pisses me off because it’s driving unsustainably growth and becoming stupid expensive. Still such a nice place to come home to. Also some great UGA watching venues downtown. I feel like we outnumber Clemson fans there sometimes.

Aside from football rivalries, there are lots of good schools around. I’ve been thoroughly impressed by USC so far. I can’t say I’d ever wear anything with the word “Cocks” on it, but I’d quit my career and go back to college in a heartbeat if I could.

Kirby’s job #1 is to keep the Dawgs hungry. I think he is a Master at this but this year will be his biggest challenge. He has a chance to get into the College Football Hall of Fame with a 3 peat. Hell they probably won’t wait for him to retire.

He’s already in the College Football Hall of Fame, he’s led Georgia to three national title games, two national titles, two SEC titles, and five SEC East titles.
But, there’s no reason not to run up the score to be sure.
