Pre-season SEC predictions may prove faulty

Upon scanning the numerous predictions for this year’s SEC season, it is apparent that the establishment is set with its SEC power structure. Reading the preseason preview rags would makes you think that Tennessee is unbeatable and better now than in the days of Payton Manning, LSU is more talented than the ‘85 Bears, and [...]

Gator guard needs to restrain emotion

Last year at about this time, the court at Stegeman Coliseum was a sea of red and black following the basketball team’s thrilling victory over rival Florida. There will be no such display following tonight’s game, and the reason for that has nothing to do with the outcome on the floor. Instead, a new SEC [...]

Signing Day an event for fans

Another football season is gone, and another Signing Day is already upon us. For those of you who either: a) regularly frequent College Square; b) think football involves colored cards; or c) own a Lord of the Rings chess set, Signing Day is an annual ritual in which fans across the country sign their souls [...]

Better Dog days ahead

In the larger scope of the college basketball season, last Saturday’s Bulldog victory over Vanderbilt could be considered a blip, and even that would be generous. However, this does nothing to subtract from the singular genius of what the Bulldogs accomplished. The team that Georgia fielded last Saturday included among its members six players on [...]

Dashed hopes leave fans sore

What Saturday proved for Georgia was that, just maybe, we had all miscalculated a little. Maybe this team was not strong enough across the board to do the things we had hoped. Maybe the weakest link was just weak enough. To be certain, Auburn is the best team in conference and likely the nation. Oklahoma [...]

Game significance more than rivalry

Top 10 teams. SEC and national championship aspirations. Prolific ground attacks, stifling defenses and two coaches waiting for the other to blink. Yep, sounds like another typical game between Georgia and Auburn. In the pantheon of college football rivalry, few games annually carry the same level of parity as this one. Amazingly, just two years [...]

Greene takes his place alongside Univ. greats

Amidst all of the Heisman chatter on Saturday involving Jason White, Aaron Rodgers and Matt Leinart, another quarterback set a record the aforementioned gunslingers could only dream about. And nobody seemed to notice. That’s because winning has become the norm for David Greene. Certainly it would have been nice to have broken the career wins [...]

Heart, head needed to beat Gators

Is this the year? Is this the time when we get to party both before and after the game, take over The Landing on Saturday night and turn Brogen’s into the World’s Largest Outdoor Victory Party? Do we finally get to drive back up to Athens with flags and pennants high, honking at our Bulldog [...]

Mark Richt: Road Warrior

Years ago, there was a tag team in the ranks of professional wrestling called the Road Warriors. They wore spiked shoulder pads and painted their faces and generally had their way with opponents, capturing multiple world tag team championships. Something tells me that Georgia head coach Mark Richt was a fan. While Richt has yet, [...]

Freshmen running backs brighten Bulldogs’ victory

Saturday saw gorgeous weather and an easy Homecoming victory for the Bulldogs, but going into the day they were in search of more than that. Following the Tennessee debacle, the Dogs needed hope. With a four-game road stretch looming on the horizon, a sputtering offense and a suspect pass defense, things were suddenly not looking [...]
