Good morning and Happy New Year! Well, Whinin’ Day and the Bucknuts will get to watch the rest of the CFP from their couch. Time to put Ole Miss on the couch with them.

Now, I’m no prognosticator, I’m just a fan. However, last season, headed into the Sugar Bowl, I was uneasy about the game and, to my horror, it didn’t turn out well for the good guys. Don’t have any of those feelings this season. This team has grown up and made huge strides as we watched them all season. Ole Miss might get some early points but, I look for UGA to take over, at the latest, by the second half. Don’t think Ole Miss can overcome us. Last year, the middle 8 killed us, got us down so far, we couldn’t rally back. I trust Kirby to button that up today.

In other news, there’s a couple of other games today as well. Part of me wants to see Bama shut Indiana down and shut up all the B1G idiots. But, I don’t really want to see Bama for a 3rd time this season so, I’m conflicted. As far as TT/Oregon, I’m pulling for TT, although I really don’t care which one wins.

So, here’s the TV lineup for today, with all the broadcasts being aired by E$PN:

Go Dawgs!

Good morning all! Hope everyone enjoyed yesterday’s Thanksgiving festivities with their friends and families. My family had a nice time, gathering together in our usual manner. No one left hungry!

Now, forget all that and gin up some HATE! Cuz it is bug squashing time! We have the opportunity today to match The Drought. Georgia has won 7 straight in the series in 3 different periods: 1991-1997, 2001-2007 and 2017-2024, the current streak. I want a win today, and I want another one next season, so that “The Drought” fully belongs to the Nerds from here to eternity!

Kickoff: Friday, November 28 – 3:30 p.m. ET

For good luck, here’s the cover of the 1957 game program when Theron Sapp became “The Drought-Breaker”:

And, from Georgia Dogs dot com, here is today’s “Game Program“.

The day starts off with the Egg Bowl. Followed by Clean Old-Fashioned Hate and we end the evening with the Lone Star Showdown. We’ll be tuned in to the first 2 games but, we’ll be leaving late afternoon to head to Sylvester to watch Worth County host Gordon Lee in the Single A Division 1 quarterfinals. I’ll leave it up to y’all to to get the necessary outcome from the late game. Don’t screw it up!

Go Dawgs!

This weekend is probably a welcome change of pace for the Dawgs. It’s been, so far, a successful grind of a season against the upper echelon of the SEC. Today, UGA welcomes the Charlotte 49ers to Athens. Why are they the 49ers? Wasn’t the gold rush in California?

Game Essentials:
Date & Kickoff: Saturday, November 22, 2025 – 12:45 p.m. ET (SEC Network slot)
Venue: Dooley Field at Sanford Stadium – Athens, Ga. (93,033)
Records entering the game: Georgia 9-1 (7-1 SEC), Charlotte 1-9 (0-7 AAC)
Rankings: UGA #4, Charlotte unranked
TV: SEC Network – Joe Tessitore, Jordan Rodgers, and Lauren Sisler on the call
Radio: Georgia Bulldog Sports Network (Scott Howard, Josh Brock, DJ Shockley) – stream free at georgiadogs.com or the Georgia Bulldogs app
Series History All-time: Georgia leads 1-0
Last meeting: 2019 – Georgia 52, Charlotte 0

Charlotte’s sputtering at 1-9, giving up 475+ yards per game (worst in FBS) – perfect for resting starters and getting some young pups some live game action.

I don’t expect much excitement or nail-biting today, that said, keep everyone healthy, have a good game and enjoy the “break”.

Go Dawgs!

Horns down.

Today’s digital game program from Georgia Dogs dot com:

This will be Texas’ 15th conference game since joining the SEC. It’s the 3rd time facing UGA. That’s 20% of their SEC games so far. I’ve seen and heard enough about these Big 12 rejects, c’mon Dawgs, let’s beat that ass and leave them questioning why they ever came to the SEC.

And, never forgit! Forgit hell! It’s always 10-9 in Texas!
