There is a big difference in betting against the money line versus betting against the spread or picking an over/under.

Has Ga covered a spread all year?

At many different points in the game, you have to root for the team that's playing Georgia to make good plays and for Georgia to make bad plays. You inevitably spend much of the game hoping the other team succeeds and hoping that Georgia fails.

There is no way to rationalize it. This is bizarre and delusional.

Yes that is exactly what I said.

But I would start with position coaches, the re evaluate within two years. If the problems are still there, then it could possible be a scheme issue. That’s when the OC/DC should be shown the door.

I'm still not quite sure what you're calling for Kirby to do right now. So fire our WR coach and our OL coach after 4 games, and... do what for the remainder of the season? Put out job postings and try to hire from the ranks of the unemployed? Give those duties to some GA?

And when do we fire Schumann and Bobo? Do that now also? In other words, tank the season in a fit of spite. After we've done all of that and limped through an understaffed season, sabotaged our recruiting, who do you have in mind for all of those jobs that's a better fit and we can afford to hire away? If you honestly think our coaches are so much worse than everyone else and must be fired, then you must have willing and able candidates already in mind that we can afford to poach from their current positions.

The problem is, we’ve already missed that mark with our position coaches last year.

We won the SECCG last year, made the playoffs and got bounced early because we were missing our starting QB. And don't say we would've still lost to ND with Beck, because that is far from certain and even unlikely IMO. Gunner was not ready at that point, as evidenced by our 2/12 3rd down conversions.

So what part of Kirby's standard did we fail last year, against a grueling schedule (more regular season/CC games against ranked opponents than any other playoff team). Would any other staff have won both the SECCG and the NC, without our starting QB? Very unlikely. You seem to think 2022 is the future standard that must be met, undefeated and mostly unchallenged. That's a pipe dream and it's likely never happening again. If that's the standard for firing multiple coaches and coordinators and starting from scratch, you'll fail before you start.

Here's the truth; all of these calls for immediate action because of last night are premature and rash and Kirby will make matters worse if he gives the slightest attention to these anonymous message board analysts clamoring for "change" or his job is on the line.. He should stay the course, finish the season and then do his annual full re-evaluation. And he should caution his players to avoid social media and keep working toward their goals.

I understand that jones is part of a package, and unfortunately on the field then, but does he have to be part of a package? What deal have we made that says you have to play this guy?

People who ask uncomfortable questions and try to point out potential flaws about this team are called "Cancer Dawgs" on this board. This is the angle he is trying to play here.

I don't think it is "uncomfortable questions" that irk many on here. It is the constant negativity.

We win some on here nitpik continuously. We lose some one here almost celebrate, to the point of not even being glad we won two straight National Championships. At what point would you expect for someone to say..."Good job"? Never? because there are those who have never said they are happy with a Georgia team. At some point you have to look inward and question what it owuld take to make someone happy.

Do I think some others on here go overboard to ridicule someone pointing out a flaw? Yes. I just think it is a backlash against those who can never bring themselves to say anything positive about the team.

I mean, if not for a dropped pass to a wide open receiver we would have won the game. Kirby made a huge error in judgment in my mind when her went for it on 4th a 1 on their 10. Catch that pass, and kick that FG and Georgia wins by 7. I saw nothing that makes me think this team can't win the title based off that game. Some young players made fatal errors, but that's what young players do, until they mature and learn under fire.

We won the SEC.

A conference championship game that honestly serves no purpose since the expanded playoffs, and will more than likely be gone within 10 years.

We were bounced in the first round of the playoffs. You say because of gunner and it being his first start. I say it’s because our offensive line was god awful all year last year, and we couldn’t run the ball effectively at any point during that season, which admittedly made Bozo’s job harder.

Yet, just like the Alabama and Ole Miss games last year, our defensive couldn’t stop a nose bleed for the entire first half. And our DC is still the same. Different players, same coaching staff.

Our offense, just like last years ole miss game, couldn’t sustain drives and score points when needed. Different players. Same coaching staff.

I look at BoBo’s entire work when I look at him. Including his first stint with Richt. It is why I say and will continue to say as long as he is here, that he is an average play caller at best, and at worst he calls some of the most mind boggling shite I’ve ever seen. It’s like the whole “if it works in a genius” the problem is, it never works.

Let’s call a wide receiver screen, gets blown up, well hell let’s call it again they would never expect it!!!

4th and 1, game on the line. Instead of running the ball to the left, which has been working all night, we run to the right. Where we are weak, and suprise surprise, then run gets blown up and cash jones gets tackled for a loss.

I am not suggesting we fire anyone mid season also. I am suggesting they should have mutually agreed to part ways at the end of last season.

As far as this season goes. You play the cards you have and hope for the best. I just hope and the end of this season Kirby changes decks.

You can downplay it all you want, but Georgia won the championship of the toughest league in college football last season. Every other SEC team, with all their fabulous coaching tried their best but ended up inferior to UGA football, head to head outcomes notwithstanding.

I guess the entire league should've parted ways with both coordinators and multiple coaches during the offseason, using your logic. Or maybe you hold Kirby's staff to a different standard from everyone else in college football. If so, your standard isn't reasonable because everyone else is competing for championships same as us.

And yet we won SEC and would've very likely advanced, quite possibly to the national championship game, with Carson Beck. That's not a knock on Gunner, Beck was just a better (and much more experienced) QB, which is why he was our starter for two years and was paid several million dollars to go elsewhere. Gunner simply wasn't ready for that challenge at that time. I hope he gets another chance with more experience under his belt.

Since you're not suggesting we fire anyone immediately, then you might as well let it play out without the constant weeping and wailing for the next two months. You're not going to change Kirby's mind and the only other function would be to cause dissent. That's the part that equals trolling.

We can all agree cash jones shouldn’t see the field when the score is within 10 points, it’s just not working. He’s a great athlete but we have elite ones that can get it done better imo

---

I would respectfully disagree. cash Jones has a ton of speed and is one of the best pass catchers out of the backfield we have. I do agree Kirby has made some questionable calls...the going for it on 4th and 1 on the Alabama 10 was awful. You should always....always...ALWAYS take the points to tie the game in the 4th quarter. I get it. We were on a roll and if we punch it in we go up by 4. But, had we tied it up the game goes to OT. Catch the easy, wide open pass and we win. Many of the PI no calls are coming against young, inexperienced players. They will mature, hopefully and by the end of the season will be ready for the playoffs. Ellis Robinson has got to use his head. he is making some silly, costly errors, but I also have seen some improvement. The one that scares me when I see him on the field is Daniel Harris.

Anyway...I didn't come on here to chastise or criticize anyone. Just to give an opposing viewpoint from a neutral observer.

I think people need to look at the overall picture more often and stop overreacting to individual plays/situations.

First of all, I can post whatever I want whenever I want.

I am sorry that you feel like our coaching standards haven’t slipped, and you feel like anyone who criticizes what our boneheaded OC does, isn’t a “real” fan.

I bet you loved that whole Richt’s “arena” speech too. Because god forbid someone who hasn’t coached in college football express frustrations with how our favorite team has been performing in the biggest games of the season the last couple of years.

Secondly, it isn’t my job to convince anyone of anything. If Kirby thinks that Mike Bobo is doing a fine job and we will win a national championship with him at some point, all I can say is that I respectfully disagree based on the history that I have witnessed firsthand with him calling plays.

At the end of the day, I want what is best for our football team. As I have gotten older, I care less and less about who’s coaching where.

But on that same token, I am sick and tired of seeing the EXACT same shite year in and year out when it comes to Alabama.

We literally lost to the worst Alabama team in almost two decades last year.

And mark my words, they will have another L or two by the seasons end.

I agree with taking the points with the chip shot FG but Kirby might have been thinking that there would be plenty of time for Bama to drive down and get their own FG to win the game.
So the decision to go for it made sense but on 4th and 1 I would rather give the ball to Bowens or McCray off-tackle or with a toss-sweep since we had been running well against their OL in the 2nd half.
Or roll Gunner out to the right with run-pass options.

Oh, I can tell that you're feeling quite intent on making sure that any Georgia fan within range is just as miserable as you are. I've always found the anonymous message board negaDawgs to be some of the most committed folks around. The motto is, to paraphrase the old saying, "If you can't say something bad, don't say anything at all." That's how we managed to win consecutive national championships and yet some posters on this board found reason to continuously gripe and insult players and coaches along the way.. Their standard, like yours, is that championships aren't good enough, perfection or GTFO.

Feel free to start a new post every day about Kirby Dumb and the Disney Dawgs. Maybe you can be in charge of the "Kirby Smart has lost control" chant, since your disdain for Coach Mark Richt is so evident. But don't worry if you miss a couple of days, because your troll friends and negaDawg allies will keep the drumbeat going to run Kirby out of town on a rail. It's what they do.
