From Athens - Game Day Friday # 10 11-11-23

Good Day All,

Sorry SD it's game number #10....  the season has gone by so fast .   Night game in Sanford , ranked opponent ...  ESPN  Gameday in town...    hype on top of hype.

Lowest point spread of the season for the Dawgs... Yada Yada....   I was disappointed that the fan intensity inside Sanford for Mizo game didn't rise to the level of last years sonic Tennessee game... both were a 3:30 ....  KO's    yes our fans were loud but at times seemed detached because we weren't scoring on every play.. and our opponents were scoring on our defense.... seemingly  easily...

I  attribute this to being spoiled by the 21 & 22 teams....  early screams to pull Beck for Vandagriff have been reduced......  diehard hate for our OC also has somewhat tempered....  both always subject to contentious review...

Kirby's first G-game he called for Dawg fans to be elite...  93K packed Sanford April 2016..... Dawg Nation never looked back .. we grew to trust Kirby's process.

He again called for our fans to be elite for the Ole Miss game ... time to regroup and recharge.... defend our turf....  

We stay focused and play to our standard... we will take care of business .

X - factor ....    current weather forecast is calling for 77% chance of rain with winds 10-15 mph winds. Rain forecast does drop to 30% at 6pm.

Both teams will have to adjust....

Pause and give thanks... continue to check on family and friends often.

Have a great weekend and a safe week....  As always " Go Dawgs "
 

According to the weather whoever has the ability to maintain their footing is going to have a leg up.  The great equalizer might be at play for this one, nothing to do but play the game!

GO DAWGS!!!!!!!!! GATA!!!!!!!!!

Growl.... exactly.... both teams have to play in the same conditions.

Go Dawgs

I think we’re more physical and have better coaching.

GO DAWGS!!!!!!!!  GATA!!!!!!!!
