He has a track record of preparing to play ONE BIG GAME each year, and dropping the ball in a game they should win each year. Last year the big game was us, the game they should have easily won was Florida. Year before that, we were their big game and then they lost to Abuurn - at HOME. Instead of complaining about how "unfair" the schedule is, Spurrious needs to strap on a pair and just win. That's what gets respect and championships - not being a whiney-butt cry baby.

:cheer:


Truth!

Might want to check this out if you have not seen the video. Listening closely, feel that some secrets were revealed without saying as much.

Here is one reason many believe SS hates UGA.

In 1966 the University of Florida had never won an SEC championship. Their goal that year was to win that elusive title and go undefeated for the first time in school history. The reason for all this optimism was senior quarterback and Heisman Trophy candidate Steven Orr Spurrier. When the Gators arrived in Jacksonville to face Georgia, they were 8-0 and ranked No. 7 in the country. The Bulldogs had only one loss, a 7-6 defeat at the hands of Miami, and were not ranked in the top 10. To cut to the chase, Georgia hounded Spurrier all day long with a seven man rush, forcing him to throw both his third and fourth interceptions of the season. The second one was a pic-six by the Dawgs Lynn Hughes. Meanwhile, Georgia's ground game ate up the clock and the Gator defense, forcing the battered Spurrier to spend much of the fourth quarter as a weary spectator on the sideline. Bulldog quarterback Kirby Moore scored with one second left on the clock to make the final score 27-10. Florida finished the season 9-2 , while Georgia shared the SEC title with Alabama with a 10-1 record. The loss to Georgia was the worst defeat of Spurrier's career, putting an everlasting damper on his Heisman Trophy winning season. Once when asked what he remembered most about his senior season, he simply replied "the loss to Georgia". The above recount of the 1966 UGA-UF game is the reason Spurrier has spent much of his college coaching career trying to pay Georgia back for pretty much wrecking his college playing career. Makes one wonder if that will be on his mind Saturday in Columbia...Just sayin'.

TN D.....I was at that game with my father....we had a blast watching Stanfill and Patton harass SOS all day long. It was brutal, a physical wuppin'. Will never forget that day (believe I was 16 at the time).

I remember Stanfill chased a RB down and hit him so hard on the sideline, they had to literally drag/slide the player off the field.

Glorious day.

It was truly a joy to watch Bill Stanfill, George Patton and Jake Scott play for UGA.

Believe that some on our defense today have the same mindset Bill, George and Jake had. Starting another chapter of Georgia Football. Proud to be a Dawg.

Cannot stop with the above only. Below is a link that some might not have read. Talk about having his heart and soul into UGA Football, he did.

Jake Scott was a terror and ball hawk in our secondary. If you did not have your head on a swivel, too bad . . . . Jake was on his way. Some on campus today are talking about Tray Matthews, much the way we talked about Scott back in the day.

I LOVE this story about Stanfill.

It is said that SS was standing on a platform at the tailors getting fitted for a suit to wear to the Heisman Trophy presentation. He was very fidgety. The tailor told him to "stand still". SS thought someone yelled "Stanfill" and he jumped off the platform and ran out of the room!

Now THAT is funny.....uh, probably true from what I remember about the game. SOS knew where Stanfill was at all times.....many times on top of him on the ground, face mask to face mask.
