Great kickers are a Dawg hallmark, think Kevin Butler.


Heck, think Rex Robinson. Think Billy Bennett. Think Brandon Coutu. Think John Kasay. Georgia has ALWAYS had great placekickers (Hapless Hines and Andy Bailey excepted) because our coaches have appreciated that, in the SEC, it's winning the close ones that get you the Sugar Bowl bid.

averagedawg. when I lived in the Atlanta area in the 50's, used to make me sick, not for a week, dang near a year when Bobby Dodd and his jackets were beating us.

Will never forget when Dooley and UGA pulled off the famous \"hook and ladder\" against Alabama and the Bear.

Can you just imagine if Munson was calling the following play ...


Biggest Upset

Defending national champion Alabama was ahead 17-10 in Athens on Sept. 18, 1965, and had Georgia pinned inside its own 30-yard line with 2:08 to play. On second and eight, quarterback Kirby Moore passed to Pat Hodgson, who then lateraled to Bob Taylor, who ran the ball in for a touchdown. The play covered 73 yards. Georgia went for two against a frustrated Tide and Moore again hit Hodgson -- no lateral necessary. Georgia 18, Alabama 17. To this day, Tide fans insist that Pat Hodgson's knees were on the ground before he lateraled to Bob Taylor for the decisive touchdown. The film was pretty clearly on Alabama's side but as Bear Bryant said, \"You don't win games in the movies on Monday.\"

Think maybe it would have sounded a little like a certain play between the Dawgs and Gators . . . .

Buc, yeah his knees were down but UGA's argument was that Hodgson didn't have possession before he lateralled the ball therefore he wasn't down.....how's that for creative last minute thinking?
