To be fair, I have ties to Nebraska and Michigan... so either would be fine by me.

My dream is a bowl vs PSU but that's a while from happening. I'm just mad cause it's a rematch. Last year it was exciting. Now it's just such a slap to the face thinking one conference's sour grapes are forcing two schools to play the same team. I just want to vary it up. Michigan would have been a fun game between two tradition but down powers. This is just a gut punch.

I totally get we haven't earned our choice in opponent, we blew our chances, but I think UGA and Nebraska deserve better. That said, I like this better than Duke.

Playing Nebraska a 2nd straight year is a hell of a lot better than getting Minnesota, Duke, or Iowa (but that's my opinion). Nebraska is a storied program... Duke is a basketball school. The other 2 schools may as well be Boston College.

I'll bitch all I want. After the shite we went through this year we deserve a matchup with Miami in the Dome. frick everything.

It is what it is though. It sucks, but we can't change a damn thing.

I didn't get to see the GT game. How'd the kid do? What's his story?

Started slow but came into his own. Doesn't have the arm Murray does but he works at a faster pace and is more of a rhythm guy. Unlike Murray and Stafford and more like Greene, he throws where the receiver will be. With him at the helm Georgia will likely utilize the gun more and probably work at a faster pace.

His story is he came to UGA as a three star, owns the GA record in passing yardage, and he filled in Metts place. He redshirted last year to gain a year separation from Murray in lieu of a transfer.

One thing I have noticed and other players have said is he is a cool customer. Kid is pretty unflappable. Murray was more talented but Mason has less of a deer in the headlights look to him. We'll see if it stays like that but I really like Mason and think he'll do well.

See that's where I disagree. Minny and Iowa offer new opponents and I like that. I was pissed the last time we played wiscy and Purdue because we played both recently. I want to experience new teams. Nebraska a second year in a row offers literally no excitement except another opportunity to shite on that moron Pelini and beat them after they came out afterward saying they STILL thought they were better.

But Iowa and Minny are new teams and that's what i wanna play, new teams.

UGA confirmed the matchup

It's the Dawgs vs Huskers, Round 2

But Iowa and Minny are boring. Playing Nebraska would bring a lot more exposure, and more appeal at a national level.

2 words: Bo Pelini

I'm okay with it. We can kick Nebraska's a$$ every year if that's the way it's gotta be.
