Somehow I feel like Bama is going to win that side of the bracket. I think it will be us or Ohio St, but yah, we have to get past Ole Miss first.

I guess he didn't want a co-title any more. I wonder if t this means Schumman is staying put? Be funny if Sark gets fired and he brings them both in to be OC and DC.
I thought we had been but guess not. UGA has been to most of the historical bowl games. I recall they had a cup they sold with cokes at UGA games in the 80's that had all the bowl games we had been to and won.
Gunner is #6 in QBR. His TD #'s aren't gawdy so maybe why.

re: New Florida coach

Florida fans really wanted Kiffin. Kiffin would've brought a lot of high flying offense and points, which Florida fans still like to associate the program with, and he also wears a visor and already looks like he's from Florida. But then Kiffin said no thank you. Had to be a kick in the nuts to their ego.

Willie Fritz ressurrected the Tulane program, so I don't know how much credit Summral can get at Tulane. But if you go back further, Summral ressurected the Troy program. But then again Billy Napier resurrected the Ragin Cajuns program.

All of that talk of resurrections just to say who the frick really knows. Maybe he'll be good for Florida. But the odds of him being able to turn around the series with Georgia are not on his side. One more national title and Kirby will be on the Mount Rushmore of SEC coaches. The new Florida goober is about to step way up in class.


Yah, Florida wanted Kiffin bad. It's crazy how far Florida has dropped off since Jeremy Foley. Florida was seen as one of the top 5 atheltic departments back then. He had a bit of a dip when he hired Zook, but he also raised the basketball program to gold standards. It seems like Alabama and LSU are the 2 most successful now taking into account all sports.
quote:

No fan of Kiffin but CFB HC's have been leaving for "shinier destinations" since CFB was invented and includes but not limited to: Bear Bryant,Bobby Bowden,Nick Saban,Steve Spurrier,Johnny Majors,John Heisman,Woody Hayes,Bo Schembechler,etc. Some were worse than others (Bryant,Heisman) but you get the point.


this is the point. Coaches have always left for greener pastures. Kirby is a UGA alumn but the alumn connection doesn't always mean a nice break; e.g. Rich Rodriguez and Johnny Majors to name 2. I get Ole Miss is upset but I don't think there was any easy way other than to leave 2 weeks ago. I get the feeling he didn't make a decision until last week.

Another point, Kiffin really seems uneasy in his body langauge about the whole situation and seems unsure about his decision. It seems like Sabana was a big influence on him leaving. Kiffin seemed real comfortable at Ole Miss. LSU will be a real pressure cooker.

re: Bama vs UGA

FWIW we are 1.5 pt favorite. Bobo and Kirby got out-coached by Deboer last 2 times. Deboer has a great record in top 10 games and does really well in tight games. Look at the 4th down call he made last night. I thinking if we win will need to be by at least 2 scores. If it comes down to X's and O's in a tight game and it's up to Bobo vs Deboer, not feeling good about it.

re: Definitely a pro-Georgia crowd

It looked like at least 75% from the few flashes of the crowd on TV. A few of my Tech die-hard friends were not happy about moving the biggest rivalry game off campus and weren't attending. I assume looking at ticket prices those kind of guys bought the tickets with their season ticket rights and tried to sell them on Stubhub. Tech absolutely killed an advantage having the game at MBS. Sure North Avenue would have had at least 50% UGA fans but you they made a mistake moving the game IMO. To hell with Tech!

re: Gnats Out Of The ACCCG

Posted by agentoranj1990 on 11/24/25 at 8:19 am to
Tech spotted them 28 points, but Pitt and that QB are pretty good. i think they just kind of choked in the 1st quarter. Tech D is pretty bad but they played a lot better in the 2nd half. I think Tech will be really tough. I'm more worried about us being prepared. We have pretty much locked up a playoff spot. I think Tech should have kept the game at Bobby Dodd - MBS is a neutrail site.
I thought Auburn had to beat Bama for us to get in? Isn't A&M in the SECCG with a win or loss? That would give them 1 loss overall. You said if A&M wins it's Tx vs Bama; but I think you mean A&M vs Bama.
I'll take the SECCG. The goal is to win championships. If we don't make it then move on to the next phase and try to win the big championship.
I get the feeling he is going to Florida. I have family that went to Ole Miss. Gorgeous old South town and University but there's not much going on there other than Ole Miss. If you have ever been to Mississippi it's extremely rural - the entire state only has 3 million people and the largest city feels like Macon to me. LSU seems like they have too much politics going on. Schools like SC and Ole Miss have always been 2nd tier SEC teams. Any young coach that has success at schools like that is going to be courted to go elsewhere. Maybe Kiffin stays but people are acting like these coaches have some kind of allegiance to the schools. In some cases like Kirby there is, but not with Kiffin.
that's why I'm not as worried about the game this year given our offense is so solid this year.
I wonder if he will stay on as an analyst. It seems like we need more help with defense this year. This offense may be one of the best statistically of all-time. I would guess 2012 & 2023 are up there.
When I started at UGA in '90 Panic was really starting to get big and would play 2 nights at the Georgia Theater. I'm sure a lot of people remember Super Jam and they played the one in 92. I didn't go but it was kind of a legendary music fest. Personally I liked Allgood better in terms of southern rock/jam bands. I thought Allgood was a lot tighter live. I lived out in Colorado in 95 and Panic was just as big in Boulder and with the hippie crowd out there.
Seems like Ty Simpson has the lead. Bama is on a winning streak and if they make the SECCG and win out likely will win it. They are getting a lot of love form announcers. Gunner is having a great season but I think the perception which isn't right is he is a game manager.

re: Noon games suck

Posted by agentoranj1990 on 11/8/25 at 12:41 pm to
I like the noon games. 3pm and 7pm I feel like I waste a lot of the day watching football. I like noon home games now too. My mom lives in Athens now and I can crash at her place Friday and be there early for tailgating.
quote:

Georgia Tech defense is allowing 6.61 yard per play in conference games, which is 126th nationally and the second worst among all Power 4 teams.


I don't quite recall what our rushing yardage was in the last 2 year's game, but we definitely have a much better running game this year. We alway seems to have problems with dual threat qb's.
This was a must win for the Falcons. They have 9 games left and can's lose more than 4 games, and their schedule gets harder. Then they banked a lot on last year's draft and traded next year's first round pick to get a 2nd first round pick this last draft.

I thought it was too close to call and that's what the replay guys saw too and decided to let the call stand.
I thought it was slightly risky. I mean, what if something bizzare happened and we fumbled the next play? Either way it's what the coaches told him to do.
