Agree. Dawg here. Had my 2 boys. They were starving for a win, outnumber UGA fans, and were louder. They were pretty polite as were most UGA fans. Not a traditional rival though.
BR Trip and Sugar Bowl-Appreciate recs

Great trip with my boys despite the loss. Easy drive over from Atl. Enjoyed Mobile bridges and water. Cook Hotel-very nice. I'm not a world traveler but courteous, clean, nice little gift shop, and some memorabilia for the boys to enjoy. Great breakfast. Think I paid $125 a night. Campus was ghost town understandably. Managed to find way into Tiger Stadium-stunning. Huge in words of DJT. Cool seeing the original dorms. Mike was prowling one day and sleeping the next. Super cool. Very unique. Underwhelmed by Maravich. Floor was in bad shape. But kinda like Stegman. Lipstick on a pig. Alex Box- impressive. Manicured. Could not get into football facility bc coaching changes. Beautiful oaks were my favorite part of campus. Drove by Southern- not impressed as some HBCU's I've seen. Took boys to Maruccis. We didn't tour bc you got to book a tour and I didn't. They were drudging the lakes. Went to capitol but elevator was down due to renovations which looked badly needed. Downtown was ghost. No homeless ppl like Atl. New Orleans had plenty. Went to Parraines and The Chimes. Great food and atmosphere. Crawfish etoufee one night and bbq shrimp and boudin balls. Easy drive to game. Buzzed thru Tulane. Didn't care for way everything was crammed together. One non-typical part of trip. Kuddos to Ray's barbershop. Old school. Great cut by Mr. Guitreaux. Enjoyed my upper deck seats. Good food but crazy expensive. Was expecting hookers and blow on Bourbon St but it was tame (of course we went during day). Clean building-Superdome. The drive over was pretty seeing all the water. Def coming to UGA @ LSU in 29. Hope it's a night game. Quick getting out of NO. Never once got the "danger" vibe in city. Got back to Cook and read Tiger Rag about Red October. Very interested to see how much Liffin is embraced off the bat by everyone. As UGA LSU is not really a rival I am so glad we stayed on campus. Have always admired them from afar. Was underwhelmed by Tiger Town- maybe I didn't see-but it looked like 3 bars in a shady part of town. I'm used to Athens where everything in DT is close. Boys enjoyed campus bookstore and Bengals and Bandits. Wonder if LSU is a place where you gotta be Greek to fit in. UGA was not. I wasn't Greek but had buddies whonweee. No hate. Overall amazing place. Someone plz recommend a good history of state book for me. I'm a history teacher but didn't think about that. When i come I want tonTailgate with y'all good folks! Go Tigers and Dawgs! Also went to Cafe Dumond got the traditional. Black coffee was like tar- can't get too strong for me!

1) We won the SEC.
2) We beat every team we played.
3) We were fortunate/lucky enough to beat UT.
We also were fortunate against AU. A bad team.
4) We beat all our rivals.
5) We started 2 freshman OL. We played a ton of guys.
6) We are young.
7) We still retain most of our players-more so than anyone.
8) We had a great recruiting class.
9) We will pick up a few pieces in portal.
I, like everyone wished we had a few things/plays back-damn yall ppl who want to burn it down are dumb. I spent $1500 with my boys on Sugar Bowl and 8 hours driving back today and told them I do it again. For every "bad" decision we faked a punt-helluva play-came back after being down 6 and 10. I live and breath UGA football- disappointed YES! Discouraged-NO. For a reference I am 52. You young folks are spoiled rotten.
WE ARE NOT ALABAMA UNDER SABAN. That will never happen again with free agency. EVER!

Staying at campus hotel next week and driving into New Orleans for Sugsr Bowl. I'm a Dawg, but have always been fascinated by LSU,
Tiger Stadium, and culture, food, etc. Not looking to party. Will have my 15 and 11 year old. Give me some old school classic restaurants, things to eat,things to see. We have all day Wednesday to see the place as I'm driving Tuesday. Any Sugar Bolw tickets for 3 would be a bonus!

I disagree. If they have 2 losses and beat us they could very well be in.

Expect them (esp Haynes King) to play on another level. 2 years ago they ran it down our throat. Last yr we were fortunate to win. If we get 4 stops I'll be thrilled.
Dancing! Pressers!
re: What is your general opinion of Lane Kiffin?
Posted by BallCoach on 11/20/25 at 11:53 am to Violent Hip Swivel
Freaky good offensive coach. What he has done at OM is remarkable. Mississippi has a small
Population compared to most if not all states in SEC. And before you mention they recruit nationally and NIL, I know. He has the $ support and he will never know what it really at another school until he has been there for a while. On the other hand if LSU or UF or whoever gives him total reign he could potentially win a natty. He is a little weird and snarky but young people like that. Where he has grown is the CEO role.

3 weeks ago I was scared to death of them. They are playing terrible D right now. Theymhave the best player in country IMO. Their lack of schedule makes me cautiously skeptical. Over under could be 85. I'd take over. QB run game is unreal. We need to control clock and score TD's like last night.
re: Can Georgia pass downfield or rush the passer?
Posted by BallCoach on 11/16/25 at 7:43 pm to MoonMoon2020
To answer your question. UGA gave up 23 yds rushing and actually did affect QB. Gunner is very efficient. Our #1 deep guy is out. We def don't take a lot of shots but we control the clock. And we don't turn it over much. We are not flashy but we are very good at winning football games.
