I fully expect to see some outward emotion soon from the UGA coaches. Grantham seems to be a high strung man, not one to budge easily. Does not appear to be happy with Bobo's style of offense. Maybe that is why Bobo is not on the field calling the plays, Grantham is a pretty good sized dude. Truthfully, I think there is bad blood there.

Bobo, can't really put a label on him other than "teacher's pet". Richt lost his college buddy, had his jogging friend give his post up to JTII. Now Richt is being asked to remove Bobo.

Richt is showing his stubborn side again, if that is not the case, then he simply does not understand what is going on around him. Promise you folks, he reminds me more and more of Bobby Bowden. He is certainly walking down the same path that BB did. We know how that ended.

I am one of the folks that said this team could easily go 10-2 this season. Shows what I know about football, seem to know more about drinking kool-aid.

Right now I think we are 2.5 to 3 point underdogs in Sanford Stadium. What the heck went wrong, this is a game in Athens and we have South Carolina between the Hedges . . . .








I'm actually shocked at being a 3 point dog in this game. Looks like a lock to take USC but Vegas usually gets it right (or close).

I would have put UGA as a 14 point dog and STILL would have bet on USC.

I played football up until I broke my leg in my junior year of high school, and
I'm pretty sure the object of our offense was to score points.

I'm almost 100% positive no one ever told us to go out there and make sure we
ran lots of plays. Even if they had I don't think they would have ever said we
need to do more of that formation that resulted in 3 and out 80% of the time.

Remember though that the betting line is designed to get the money bet on each
side even. It really has little to do with how they expect the game to go down.

That being said, it is still a bit shocking because it means there is some money
coming in on UGA. If everyone was betting on SC the points given to UGA would be
more in order to get some folk to take them in order to have the money split evenly

I think UGA at home, and Carolina giving up a lot of points last week is what is
keeping some of the money down on the SC bet side.

This is, by far, the most humorous post ever:)

I am crying I'm laughing so hard at some of this stuff. I love the pics of Bobo above. Classic.

I too was stunned when I read that Bobo will keep the no huddle. hey we need more plays.

Bozo, I think BSU ran 2 pass plays the entire night:You know, the one where the slow white dude ran 10 yards and cut inside of the zone; and the one where the slow white dude ran 10 yards and cut to the OUTSIDE of the zone.

But boy, we sure looked good with all our heaving down the field. yessir, we did.

The program is in decline, just look at at the numbers. I think in CMR's first 5 years against top 25 teams we were like 14-7; the past 4 we are 4-11 or something like that; 1-10 against top 10. First 4 years, 1 time we gave up 30+ points in a game; the past 5??? isn't it somehting like 20?????


That, my friend, is a trend.

yes, we could reel off 11 in a row like Va Tech did least year. There is only one problem with that analogy: we have Bobo; we have CMR.



On the betting line. back in a fornmer life, I knew a bookie, and I placed a few bets. Friend worked in a casino and told me how it works. let's just say this: when a line looks to good to be true, it usually is.


Well, when I heard the line, my first reaction was "How in the heck are we only 3.5 under dogs????? seems like we should be 7 or so.

Now, I'm not going to predict we win, because I don't think we will, but I will say this: I made a lot of money in the day looking for lines like this. The reason the casino's keep getting bigger is b/c they are smart, and the betting public is dumb.

IF I were still placing bets, I would jump all oevr UGA because it seems too easy to pick SC. Hope I am right in this, but I just can't see how Bobo outcoaches Ellis Johnson.
