World’s Largest Outdoor Dawg Slaughter

I hate UGA. You should know that if you know me. I hate the assumed dominance by the media, the arrogance of their fans, and the arrogance portrayed by their players and coaches, not to mention the crap Heisman talk over Knowshow Moreno.

So you can imagine I loved the outcome of Saturday’s UGA vs. Florida game, formerlly referred to as The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party.  That’s right, the “Dawgs” were dismembered play after play. They lost by 39 points. Ouch. So much for “best team in the country,” “best team in the SEC,” and “2009 National Champion.”

While the Bulldogs have underperformed to many (I expected them to fail, so I’m just thrilled), the Yellow Jackets have overperformed. Who - except Paul Johnson - would have expected them to be 7-2 right now, in contention for the ACC championship, and just a few plays away from being 9-0.

In fact, we’re ranked only 7 spots behind UGA in the BCS rankings. We’re picked by a few analysts to be playing in the Orange bowl while UGA will miss BCS bowls alltogether, most likely.

I like that. This college football season is shaping up nicely. Next up is UNC, which will be a good, tough game. Looking forward to that matchup in November.

To Hell With Georgia,
