With the amount of ink spilled over this game, I see no need for any editorializing or prognosticating on my part. I’ll just say, this is a big game for UGA and it would be nice to get this win and somewhat change the media narrative about Georgia. TX & OK do not belong in the SEC.
This post is your open thread for comments and observations during the game.
Go Dawgs!
I love all the fuel they’ve given us all week. Just watched a clean sweep of texas picks on gameday. (Btw, that was an accident. I was trying to get the beginning of the barn/mizzou game.)
Anyway. No surprise.
All the pressure, the no. 1 ranking, the expectations are on them.
If kirby has shown one consistent thing in his tenure its this: don’t put a pretender in front of his team. We’ll beat that ass.
Dawgs roll.
I do like that everyone is picking Texas. Ratchet up the pressure on Texas and let the Dawgs loose on them.
#fuckthosemotherfuckers.
God bless Ranger Russ!
South Carolina is up 21-0 on Oklahoma. Two interceptions and one fumble, and Cackalacky only has 42 yards total offense. Tell me again about the vaunted Texas defense?
I posted this on another part of the page but felt compelled to post again here. The GPOE has a solid valid point. Kirby is pissed off.

All professional gamblers doing one of two things….
1) UGA +5 — fade the public
2) UGA moneyline — outright win
Man. The cockiness and excessive confidence of Texass is on full display on their message boards. I am not sure I have ever seen any form of narcissism this extreme ever. Bammers could take notes on how to improve.
Meanwhile every Sooner in Oklahoma thinks we beat the shit out of texas.

Texas may have set the record for the shortest time to become the most insufferable fan base in the SEC. They act as if they are our saviors, finally bringing quality football to his poor downtrodden conference.
My granddaddy went one quarter to Texas A&M, then WWII broke out. That one quarter was enough for him to learn to hate the ‘Horns properly
If this team has a “best shot” game in them, tonight would be the time to break it out. I’ve gotten an Aggie grad who sent me a message this morning begging us to beat them.
Just win..
GO DAWGS
If I was going to bet money I would take TX tonight. Having said that, they can talk all they want about being ready for SEC play, after they play us is when the rubber meets the road. Those players have not done “the grind” yet.
Holy shit. Our receivers couldn’t catch the clap at Brandee’s.
Our D is playing like our D plays.
Thank goodness.
‘Bout damn time!
Man, Bobo is really calling a great game but Beck looks like total shit. We should be up by 17 or so.
Some of its Beck but the drops are killing him. Poor Lovett…
They all must have gone to a Texas Bar-B-Q joint for supper last night and still have grease on their fingers.
We are now up by 17. The D is clicking and the O is beginning to hum.
You got it Ms. Debby! Go Dawgs!
This is interesting.
Carson Beck sucks ass! This is ridiculous. We would be up 45-0 with half a qb. WTF!
Sorry. I’ve held it in. He is playing like trash.
Just win, Baby. And don’t make a hero out of Arch…
It’s about 50/50. Beck and receivers. Those guys are dropping balls that hit them in their hands.
Lovett w/ 2 drops of easy passes that would’ve given us 1st downs. The Luckie drop was a little more excusable, but getting no points there is brutal.
Halftime report from home: Shhhhh…🤫
Offense looks like ass on both sides. Difference is it’s our D that’s making theirs look bad. Ours just looks like ass. But it’s ass-enough.
What the hell was that short kickoff?
If that drive plays out the same way with a deep kickoff, they punt and n 4th down. WTH.
The short kickoff was f’n stupid. 23-8. Here we go. Gotta say… I have no confidence in our qb at this point.
I think the issue is our QB has no confidence in our receivers.
Oh goody. Now we get the obligatory Matthew Mconaghey sideline shot.
And Jesus could they suck Wooderson’s dick any more?
Beck nearly got Lovett killed on 3rd down.
I cannot!! What the hell is wrong with our passing offense?? Here comes Texas. We did not score enough. Now we are gonna have to score with them and we can’t. Shit!!!
Aaaannd this is where I hit the mute button. Don’t care to listen to the good old fashion texas tongue bath from the broadcast booth.
C’mon Beck. Do it….
That was as much OPI as the call against us in the endzone.
That was BS. Should be first and goal UT. If we win, it will be with 23 points. Worst offense in years.
You got your wish Homey.
Not my wish. Turned a bad call into the biggest bunch of BS!
Wow. That is indefensibly bad.
Holy Shit. Arian caught a ball. There may be hope.
I’m not arguing the call was right. Reversing it because of fan behavior is cowardice.
Texas didn’t even get a delay of game penalty.
That’s a TD! Maybe they’re trying to go back and reverse the facemask.
These refs are scared shitless and fuck you, texas. Thats 7. Go Dawgs.
Horseshit!! TD you cheating mother f’kers!!!!!!!!!!
I guess we’ll all wait for Herbstreit’s 10 minute dissertation about how the Non-TD call was really a TD but the refs got it wrong….
Dick.
Somewhere, Penn Wagers is smiling.
Obligatory FUCK PEN WAGERS.
And Al Ford
I really hope the Dawgs win this game, not because I’m a Dawg fan but because FUCK YOU ESPN, Refs, and Wooderson.
THROW SOME MORE BOTTLES, MOTHERFUCKERS.
Up 15, 10 minutes to go… why are we throwing every down? Did Bobo forget we have RBs?
Man, if we could catch a damn pass, we’d be unbeatable.
For sure
I do not understand our offense. Run the damn ball!!!!!!! Catch a simple pass!!!!!!!! What are we doing?????????????????????????????
My hope now is that we pull this out (that’s what she said) when UT runs out of clock. And it’s because the reefs fucked us on the TD non-call and we got to spend a few more seconds getting it in.
At this point, the SEC office is looking to call targeting on every damn play
But only against us
Unbelievable.
“Before the snap, 15 yard penalty on Georgia. Thinking about targeting.”
“15 yards, Georgia, trying to win the game.”
RUN THE DAMN BALL, BOBO!
Cue John Prine. We might win this game in spite of ourselves.
That’s a first down!
Terrible spot.
We’ve lost every review tonight, haven’t we?
Think so. The ball was clearly beyond the marker and Etienne wasn’t down.
I think it was a first down as well, but I could give them a little grace on that one if they had been consistent, but the non-touchdown was pure horse shit.
These refs make me miss Penn Wagers. AND I FUCKING HATE PENN FUCKING WAGERS. But at least he got 3 out of 10 call right.
Early in the 3rd when Texas was backed up on their 5 and Ewers there that dying quail out of the endzone, there should have been holding. Whoever broke straight up the middle on that play had his jersey so stretched out it looked like an awning over the field. No way anyone could miss that …..but they did. No call AND the pro Texas announcers never even mentioned it. To make sure I wasn’t seeing things, I replayed it in slow motion. He damn near got undressed on the play.
Living in the middle of the enemy, I will be proudly wearing everything red and black I can get on tomorrow.
I saw it too. I’m yelling at the tv, “I’m an idiot on the coach and could see that hold”!
And I’m Houston so I will be too!
That decision to go for it wasn’t the right call whether we make it or not. 15 points up and tilt the field there with them with no timeouts.
Half a yard to win the game? Yes you do. Dumb play call to go wide. QB sneak would have been fine or fake and throw. Kids wanted it…feed them. D was up to the task.
I disagree. At that point, field position and the clock are your allies. I understand why he did it. I just don’t think it was the right thing to do.
Kirby was in his feelings there, methinks. Punt the ball.
That and the 2nd half kickoff really had me scratching my head. Visions of fake punts against Alabama kept flashing before my eyes.
In his postgame presser, Kirby said it wasn’t intentional. Just didn’t get all of the ball, somehow.
The worst officiating I’ve ever seen in a half of football. Dudes on the field, dudes in the replay booth. Fucking shitshow.
They sucked alright, but the officiating crew in the Louisville-Miami game came in a close second today for the worst crew.
ESPN and the SEC are so clearly pro-Texas, it’s sickening. Now that Bama is on the decline, Texas is their new fave. I predict the SEC office will move to Dallas within the next 2 years.
Horns down.
THEM DAWGS IS HELL!!!!!!
Screw the refs giving Texas Bama privilege already.
Great game by the defense. Hell of a game!
Props to Kirby for calling out the refs!
Where’s Wooderson?

“Your whole network doubted us, and the refs tried to rob us with calls in this place.”
Kirby is going to get a sternly worded email this week. Way to go, Kirby.
For some strange reason, I doubt he’ll give a shit.
I’m guessing this will be the response Kirby sends.
That would be the most appropriate response.
My game observations:
Offense- WTF did I just see?? Looked like 2015
Defense- WTF did I just see!! Looked like 2022
Coaching- Dammit Bobo! Run the ball!
Officials- Did they get these dudes from the south Chicago O’Bannon Gang?
Texuxs stole Bama’s Privilege. Remember very early in the game Georgia was called for defensive PI when the receiver had his arms wrapped around the Dawg defender…a ridiculous wrong call…that wasn’t reversed or even reviewed. Dawg fans should have thrown their shit onto the field..(I’m proud they didn’t).
Txuxs has replaced the Junior and Lulu as the trash of the conference.
