It will be very tough to root for you again in the bowl game. Twice in one season is rough on an old Gator!

Btw, that pass that Murray threw on the final drive to King was breathtaking. In that situation, after already throwing what looked like a pick, with the whole history of clamming up in big games, and with him having to make a play to win...that was about as good a throw into a small little window as anyone could make.

Richt has had a lot of faults, but this game is in no way on him. That final drive (not to mention the excellent punt fake call that caught everybody off guard) were both outstanding coaching.

The way both teams' run defenses have been playing, I can see a combined 700 yards on the ground in the capital one bowl

Honestly. we are divided. I have actually moved more towards the Richt support wagon, as him taking up for his team on national tv and looking like he had something in his scrotum, made me happy.

Im not sure there was anything, from a coaching standpoint, we could have done. Some may question that last call, but had we scored, he would have looked like a genius.

There are still a ton of unhappy GA fans, and some rightfully so, but in all honesty, who would do better at UGA right now? I mean half the fricking conference is hiring new coaches and Richt is putting together a top 5 class.

We showed up and lost...thats ok. Its debacles like Columbia that gets most GA fans up in arms, and that didnt happen, in fact, it was quite the opposite.

Regardless if we score or not, we went 80 yards in less than a minute with no timeouts and the game on the line against Saban's defense. With little ol' mike bobo and richt at the helm. That 2 minute drill was perfection until that last frickin play, which isn't on the coaches.

I agree with the sentiment, although I wouldn't say "we lost, that's ok". You never want to excuse a loss, but man I don't think anyone watching that game will deny that those were 2 of the best, and maybe THE 2 best, teams in the country that gave each other all they could handle. I doubt we'll see an SEC championship of that caliber (excitement, ending, what was on the line for both teams) in a long time if ever.

UGA should be upset with Richt bc of the USC game, not Saturday vs Bama.

STFU, Richt nor Murray lost this game. We wouldn't have been in that position at the end of the game if not for them.


Did i blame anyone? I'm just curious to how UGA fans feel. UGA a few times have been 1 win away from a National Championship game & didn't get it done. I guess i forgot that the only place winning & losing is all that matters is in Louisiana & Texas... Which is sad, but true.

It sure seems like you're pinning this on Richt.

Richt, Murray, and the Georgia team have NOTHING to be ashamed of... y'all gave us all we could handle and my hat's off to you. That was one hell of a game!

I'm not surprised. Upset? By the way we lost but not that we lost. I wasn't expecting UGA to win anyway. We have all been hard on Richt but he did pretty well this year and has bought my good will.

If anyone wants to blame Aaron Murray you can frick yourselves. Murray is a great QB and we Georgia fans have been lucky to have him.

This is why GAg will be stuck in mediocrity. They bought in the BS of a great season, because they were sooo competitive against the mighty Alabama (which is good, but IMO TAMU, and LSU are right there with them).

But beating FL cures all ills right?

Their second best win was Vandy. Yeah, Vandy. Which was Florida's 5th best win. Or was it Ole Miss? GA tech?

If I were a mutt, I would have not been happy with anything other than a NC. They were perfectly set up. But they have the moral victory this year at the SECCG. It was just a tipped pass loss. Sure it was.
The 350 yards on the ground were nothing. Helen is just GREAT! Great job coaching all that talent this year, and great season overall. woof, woof.
