UGA Football . . . A Real Test

I hope they do pay Wlayton, Cause you must think, if cum threw him out of uf, he must be a bad egg. cause after all he kept O.J.rainey and the rest. Plus he said himself he wanted to play at miss st for mullen. but once his dad got his church money he went to au. with no ties there seems really strange. Ive benn following college football for a very very long time as Im sure yall have and Ive never seen this much talk of wrong doing by someone and it not be true. after all the guys reporting this get paid by being right not wrong, if they report wrong they dont have jobs for long. Just saying. I think we can win also this weekend if we keep the ball control from newton. GO DAWGS!!!

This is the kind of dialogue that really impresses me as a member on this board. Folks lock on to a topic and stay there, giving pros and cons, not throwing a bunch of BS around.

Talk about the SEC and its reputation can be fast and furious on other sites. For example, check out some of the blogs from the other conferences about the SEC and its underhanded ways. Whether true or not, probably both in some cases, the SEC is offically a target of the outsiders and that includes the NCAA.

Truth of the matter is this, there are many terrific football players in the South, Southeast and Southwest. Really eats at many in the North and Northeast. Sort of like a renewal of the Civil War, for different reasons of course. These young, talented kids don't go to the Northern schools like they once did. Times have changed, now the good guys stay home. One example that I can give is this . . . . if this was thirty or forty years ago and a Crowell type player was available, he would head to a Northern school. That decision now appears to be between Alabama and Georgia, not Michigan, Notre Dame or others. Speaks well for not only us as individuals, speaks well for the SEC.

OSD, a lot of these college football players are better than the pro players. Could name many off the top of my head. Defensive lineman, first pick Detroit Lions. What a difference he is making in his freshman year in the pros. Quarterback for the St. Louis Rams (still hard for me to visualize the Rams in St. Louis) taking over the quarterbacking duties in his first year. Defensive back out of Tennessee, making a splash. Point being, these kids, I call them kids, physically they are men and are so far ahead of where football once was back in the day.

Back in the day we had an all star game where the college elite formed a team and played the pros. If the college elite played in a game like that today, pros would be hard pressed to win. My opinion.

Sorry, easy for me to get off on a tangent, as all of you know.

GeorgiaBoy1285, God bless you and all Veterans. Proud to say that I served. FlyingDawg, you da man . . .

Thanks to all the Vets on this board for our freedom!

Let the NCAA and the SEC work the process, we need to go play Georgia football on Saturday.Like Buc and others I want to see a complete game out of our team to see how far we have come this year. Word off campus is both AM and OC have marked their calendar for 10/29/11. UF left a very bad taste with both of them and clearly they know there is just one way to fix it. Go Dawgs

I want to Thank all the Vets as well. Appreciate everything you guys have done and continue to do for this country.

As far as Cam Newton, I agree. As a player, you always wanted to play a team when they were at full strength so you left no doubt, or could have been's, in their minds. I want Cam to play because when we do beat them Sat, I want our guys to get the upmost satisfaction in a job well done. To be able to win a game and have nothing anyone can take away from them.

I also hope that no one believed Newton would not be playing against us. Never did I think he would not play. With the NCAA, I would say Newton's hearing will not be until after the season. Kind of why I made the Reggie Bush comment. Look how long that dragged out before something was resolved. What 3 years of investigation. Look at the UNC thing this year. The NCAA is never going to make a ruling in a matter of a week. I am not sure that they have even officially launced an investigation have they?

Good point about the SEC Buc. Kind of like Cam. Everyone guns for those who are at the top. This conference has been for many years, and I believe it will continue to be. To much talent in the South.


As far as our chances Saturday, AU has some studs. I believe we have our fair share of studs ourselves. CTG might just have a national coming out party if he slows down this attack. Believe he and the guys can do it.

GO DAWGS

I, too, am VERY thankful to our Vets and all our Armed Forces that protect our Freedom everyday. Words really can't express our gratefulness.

You know guys, this Cam Newton thing is turning in to a "no win situation" for us. If we beat them, all the AU players and fans will say that the "Cam situation" was a huge distraction and was responsible for the loss. That without the "situation", no way could we beat them. If we lose well, their fans will gloat etc.

You living in the JAX area wlayton, know that you can truly appreciate our service men and women. Tried to get stationed there back in my Navy days. Drat the luck . . . Navy thought I should go to Japan and spend time. 360 yen to the dollar then, need I say more . . .

There will always be excuses, win or lose. To be expected, been going on for ages. Give me that victory either way . . . . I will put one of these on my face . . . .
