Among the goodies....

quote:

When at their best, however, Georgia’s rushing attack is legitimately spectacular. Look back at last year’s opener, when Gurley racked up 198 yards, but Chubb and Michel chipped in 103 between them. In that game, Georgia ended up with 328 rushing yards, averaging eight yards a carry, against a Clemson defense that finished 2014 ranked fifth in the nation in the running defense. (And that’s including the stats from the Georgia game.)

Even after the injuries and suspension struck, Georgia’s running game was still great: 207 yards against Arkansas (the nation’s 12th-best run defense last year), 292 yards against Louisville (10th-best run defense), 210 yards against Missouri (26th-best run defense).

It wasn’t a volume thing either. Georgia set a school record last year for yards per carry (6.04).

So, basically, you get the point.

The Macon Telegraph along with Seth Emerson have set the benchmark for getting quality UGA reporting.

Thanks Dallas!

Chubb was smart before he got to UGA it's the new ones who aren't I worry about. I have less than 0.0 worries about NC doing anything but 10's on campus.

Don't know if you remember David Hale (went somewhere to cover the Phillies & is at ESPN now) or David Ching( went to ABH & now at ESPN) before Seth but the Macon/Columbus paper has been the standard bearer for UGA info for years. I actually liked Hale more than Seth...

Hale was the best by a long shot. He moved to Delaware to cover the Phillies. Emerson seems to get lazy at times with his content. Maybe Hale just set the bar way to high?

Very True. Hale and Emerson are far and away the best beat reporters we have had in the past few years. I really liked Hale and I was sad to see him go but Seth has picked up right where he left off for the most part

Seth likes to take digs at us (especially when it comes to USCe), which i dont like. And is general apathetic vibe towards UGA atletics turns me off.

Hale and Ching were much, much better imo.

I'll agree with you about Seth being an a-hole at times but I think its sorta funny..I like a little sarcasm out of media people. It's better than some of the other beat guys' obvious homerism which doesn't exactly seem professional to me.

Hale and Ching were both awesome. No doubt about that. I still think Emerson does a good job delivering quality content rather than regurgitating click-bait like the AJC guys usually do.

def agree there.

And I dont want full on homerism but some of the digs I could do without when reading the beat of my favorite team.

Seth is good and deserves every bit of the praise.

Please do not give that kind of praise to the Macon Telegraph. It is AWFUL!!! Why Seth stays with them is beyond me. Your dead fish deserve to be wrapped in something better than the Macon Telegraph.
