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?

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!
Starts sit after first half and second half is a running clock. No injuries.
Everyone give the seniors an extra loud cheer.
Unsurprisingly I couldn’t find a Skycast of this game anywhere. But for future info there is something called ESPN Unlimited where they frequently show a Skycast. Hulu has it and the ESPN App has it AND as part of the Disney/YTTV settlement YTTV subscribers are supposed to have full use of the ESPN App, not just SECN. I poked around last night and it does seem that YTTV peeps have full use of the App, and I saw several Skycast games available (Miami, e.g.) just not ours. That makes sense to me; this game is one where we are lucky to have a broadcast at all.
Thanks for this DDB. I enjoy the Skycast. It feels like I’m in the stadium, minus the obnoxious music. I didn’t realize there were multiple sources for Skycast.
Please update us whenever you find a Skycast feed. I like getting a capture of those for watching later.
DIRECTV stream comes with free ESPN unlimited as well.
effing Joe Tessitore. He sucks.
You make me glad I’m listening to the game rather than watching it. Scott Howard is not perfect, but he’s so much better than Tess.
Tess isn’t calling our game
I noticed that as well. Not sure where Otis gets this info from.
Quiet day on here today. Who was betting Thorson would make an appearance on first drive?
Dammit Bobo!
🙋
I gave them the benefit of the doubt so I didn’t actually post it, but i had typed on ee’s post that the starters should only play the first drive; which for the offense was probably only 3 downs.
BTW, you might to keep this link handy today. Lots of unfamiliar faces on the field.

Just crossed the bridge into Beaufort SC and stopped for a beer and a snack. Go Dawgs!
It is a beautiful day in the stadium. They honored Devon Gales. They also honored vets.
Kirby noticing the laziness setting in at the end. Going to do some yelling and send the starters out for the first series in the 3rd. Reporters asking what backups can do to get in. Kirby stating what starters have to do to get out! Love my coach.
LOL! Auburn choking on their cupcake. Mercer up 14-7 nearing the half.
Remember all the IDIOTS that used to demand Vanderbilt be removed from the SEC???
I’d argue it’s time to remove Auburn!!!
Glad the backups are getting a lot of reps.
Was hoping to see Pugs get to throw the ball a little more.
2 minutes left and zero points in the second half.
We’ve got some promising young talent at RB. I guess Kirby and Bobo want to see what they can do.
Whew! That was close! Who knew that Miz Charlotte’s Beauty School could beat the spread? I’m just glad we won the middle 8.
It’s a little disappointing to see the backups come in & not be allowed to run any kind of real offense. These guys work just as hard every day as the stars do & should be able to have a little fun. I get what Kirby thinks & that he doesn’t give one sh$t about anything fans say, which is fine, but these guys have earned some PT just through the sweat they’ve given. We’ve literally had one game, today, where some backups could get significant playing time. Fortunately, that’s really my only complaint with Kirby as my coach. Go Dawgs! No injuries this week, time to hate on some vespids!
I think he focused on seniors and getting the first team to continue to gel. By the 4th Q when he emptied the bench he just didn’t want to embarrass the other coach.
I think he should have had our second and third team score at will. They need to learn how to hit that rarefied air of 40 to 50 points. Don’t hold them backm
I tend to agree, but the saddest part is that this is the first game where backups could get some real PT. Most of the reason for that is the team is so young it has taken more than half the season for the starters to get it figured out completely. That is what it has taken for Kirby to win. The backups are in the figuring it out process and need to get vanilla right before doing anything else. Bobo’s backup did well all game which is good to know.
This is neither here nor there but I am one that hates fsu. I am 30 miles from the choke at the Doke.
Florida State has not had a road win in over two years, with their last road victory being in November 2023. Since then, the team has gone on a road losing streak that includes the entire 2024 season and the 2025 season up to the current date. For this reason only I am pulling for the lizards to spank that unconquered fsu ass. F’em. Go DAWGS !
The nerds are down 21-0. King looks like a confused freshman .. Life really is good tonight. Excuse me while I grab a cold beer.
Pitt is doing their best to choke it away.
