Your Super Late Saturday WABAC Game Day Post: Sorry Scamps

Sorry, folks. JP was a bit on the exhausted side last night and just didn’t have the energy to find something to post about between the March Madness and the seven million highlight posts about Kentucky’s miracle comeback in the Tournament. I’m human.

Anyway, let’s take the WABAC Machine back in time again to a moment where I think most of us were having some moments of doubt and wonder about the future of the Georgia football program. Away we go.

“I’m a little scared about this one, Mr. Peabody!”…”No worries, Sherman, we travel well”.

Alright folks, it’s a day where we’ll find out more about our team than we’d hope to know after one week of play for the season. We find ourselves simultaneously excited about today – our first trip here in the regular season and a once-in-a-lifetime feeling kind of game – but also worried, giving a true freshman his first start…in one of the most historic and heralded college football environments of all time. He seemed to do okay last week, but this…this is a whole other level. National audience. First time in their house. But I heard we are travelling well, and we can hope, at best, that this will feel more like a home game than a step into the most hollowed grounds of college football lore.

We’re ranked higher at the moment, but this is just the second year of our head coach’s tenure and there were flashes of greatness last year followed by flashes of “same old same old”. A butt whipping in an away game. A Hail Mary at home against one of our most hated rivals. A loss at home to a team we should’ve beaten six ways from Sunday but we were so turnover prone it seemed we wanted them to win.

This one will set the pace for the season. It’ll put us on the path to either mediocrity or getting back on the map for national relevance. We haven’t been there in what seems like eons, so we’re going to need a lot of luck and a lot of discipline to walk out of here in the right direction tonight.

The world, it seems, will be watching. Are we ready to put on a show?

Have at it in the comments.

  1. Notre Dame 2017
    The day that Kirby served notice to CFB that the Dawgs mean business.

  2. The game after which I said to myself ” Maybe we got something here.”

  3. No doubt them gold dome jockeys! I am trying to keep from not being posted. I have many names for that bunch! Hope l don’t piss nobody off. Refugees keep me going!!

  4. Obviously, the loss to Bama and how we lost the Championship game sucked, but 2017 might be my second favorite Georgia football season of all time. It was so fun with winning in South Bend and the Rose Bowl victory. Incredible.

    1980 was awesome too, but I was 10 years old and couldn’t appreciate it like I did 2017 as an adult.
