What about that hot nail to his face Larry Munson, who broke who’s nose? Georgia fans learned 2 lessons back to back.
Hob nail boot, not a hot nail.
And it’s one thing to say it, but one of your players actually stepped on one of our player’s faces in the pile and grinded his cleat intentionally into his face mask.
Classy.
Didn’t see that, but no worse than Ganus with the dirty chop block to Tuttle taking him out of game…………
That’s a good one. Tenn fans saying anything about that when knee targeting and ending folks seasons seems to be your trademark. Bennett, Marshall, Latimorre, Chubb and many more…..
Yeah it was our fault Chubb got hurt?????? Chubb is a great running back, and I truly felt bad for him. But to blame UT for that one is Ludicrous!
Nah, it’s worse. Stepping on someone’s face is about as bad as it gets.
Trailer parks burning in Athens tonight.Texdawgs is burning bright.
To say that we are targeting is terrible sportsmanship, yes Latimorre, Marshall and chubb all got hurt playing the Vols. All of them were results of hard fighting backs fighting for extra yards, Chubb stuck his leg out trying to keep going, Latimorre’s knee got caught under him on the way down, and I can’t say anything about the Marshall injury as I wasn’t able to watch that game. None of those were on purpose but rather results of hard fighting players
Anyone who watched Chubbs injury clearly saw it was the way Chubb landed that caused it. If you watch football at all you know dang near all tackles are around the legs.
TexDAWG, I must have my blinders on because I watched the whole game and did not see the step to the face.
The video is up on this site now if you’re still interested.
Well if you watched the video of it, you will see the Georgia player clearly reach up and grab the Tennessee players junk. If someone grabbed my junk I would do the same. And why was this classy Georgia player grabbing the guys junk anyhow……he want to see what a real man felt like? Always classy grabbing the twig and berries aint it.
Get your eyes checked you pervert.
The only thing I want to hear Richt say is ” I resign as head coach.” I don’t want to hear excuses. Another season down the drain.
Trade ya Beilema for him…
@stobyjoe
I didn’t want to comment after watching that terrible loss but your comment struck a nerve. I would take that trade any day of the week even though Beilema is not in my top 10. I judge college coaches by the level of talent and how they develope that talent. Starting Lineup: Beilema have four 4 stars on offense and one 4 star on defense and the rest are 3 stars or less. Mark Richt have four 4 stars, two 5 stars on offense and eight 4 stars, one 5 star on defense and the rest are 3 stars or less. My top 5 coaching candidates:
1) David Shaw
2) Gary Patterson
3) Kyle Whittingham
4) Bronco Mendenhall
5) Jess Simpson
One more thought….after Richt I hope the next hc is not an assistant, tried that done that with Vince Dooley, Ray Goff and Mark Richt…..uga need to hire an experience D-1 head coach.
BTucker Dags on top – UGAgotno arrest where are you guys at. Talked so much crap a few weeks ago. Now that your season is over why are you guys silent. Pitiful!
So true!
I can’t wait for Florida’s chance to knock Georgia around!! I’m so sick of them being the East favorite EVERY year….thank you Tennessee for putting another L on their record in the SEC!
Guess we’ll see on that one. I think the Florida fans are coming out of the wood work. Don’t get ahead of yourself there skippy.
You better worry about LSU next week gaydor fan
You can’t go up 24 to 3 and lose. You just can’t. I don’t care what Mark Richt says or the coaches say. You just don’t lose that game that far up. Coaching? Execution? Who knows but that was as bad as being blown out at home. DON’T LOSE THAT GAME ON THE ROAD PERIOD!!!!! Guess it’s Outback or Music City Bowl again!
After losing Chubb, UGA had no consistent offense.

When I saw Chubb go down I was prepared to see the team deflated, but exactly the opposite happened. Up 24-3, when UT scored converting 2 fourth downs, I told my wife I thought we were going to lose this game. Up two TDs on the road, and I didn’t have confidence in a team loaded with 4- and 5-star talent . . .
I’ve said several times on SDS that UGA’s woes the past few years were mostly attributable to porous defense. In the vast majority of Bulldog losses since 2008 the Team has put up at least 28 points. I thought when Grantham hit the road and Pruitt came in that this was over. I was wrong. USC last year – 38 points. UF last year – 38 points. Bama last week – 38 points. UT yesterday – 38 points. Anyone else seeing a trend here?
I really missed my point in the first paragraph above. What I intended to point out, but sort of bypassed, is that Richt’s teams just do not have that killer instinct. So many instances of the Dawgs being in control of a game and then letting the opponent back in it. We’ve dropped a lot of close ones that way since 2008. And it truly is more on the defense than the offense. To me, that’s the biggest difference between Saban and Richt – Bama takes control of a game and it’s essentially over, usually with their defense stepping on your throat.
I don’t know? Put Ramsey in and let him play. Shouldn’t have lost that game. Ion’t know if it’s “killer instinct” or what? We should have put them away. But, let them come back and beat us with nothing more than a running QB. Simple as that. Georgia let Tennessee run up and down the field with their QB running 85% of the time. I say it every year it seems? Georgia doesn’t deserve to be a national power. They can’t compete on a national stage. Simple as that. The’ll have a good year and go to a second tier bowl. One day the star athletes will go somewhere else to get to a championship.
It is killer instinct. You see how mad Saban gets when his team loses? And then they come back and beat the snot out of people the next time they get on the field. We do the opposite, we crash under pressure. Trademark Richt.
With a nod to my classy Bulldog friends, after watching the obligatory ‘hobnail boot’ clip, it was nice to see Coach Richt throwing his headset at the end of the game.
As we learn from brother Genghis Khan, true happiness lies in driving your enemies before you and hearing the lamentations of his women.

I think we could have used a little more headset-throwing by Richt over the last few years.
A ranked Georgia is up 21 pt over an unranked UT team, who all you Georgia fans say suck, with less than 2 min left in the first half and then goes on to get outscored 35 – 7 and SDS goes easy on them in the headlines. When UT lost in double overtime against a higher ranked Oklahoma the headline was” Tennessee blows double digit lead in loss” same when Tennessee lost by 1 point against a now top 10 UF in the swamp.
huh?
Exactly!!! Where the hell is the SDS writter who was slobbering all over GA all preseason, basically anointing them National Champions? Come out and eat crow like a real man. Completely ridiculous, total homer predictions and can’t even admit it.
If I were a Georgia fan, I think I’d keep my damn mouth shut after the last two weeks. Welcome to yet another disappointing season.
No change ever comes with keeping your mouth shut. Our frustrations are mainly with our own team/coach. The side complaint is losing key players to injury every time we play in Knoxville.
At least we aren’t wrecking ball , T bagging Bamer. I would rather be a loser than a Bamer. Simple as that. Nobody envies frigging Bamer OKAY. UGA loses a couple of games every year. Nobody’s is backing down to the Bamers of the world. Are anybody else for that matter. How bout the Rebels? Wore that butt out 2 years in a row. Guess they own Bamers butt huh?
Someone is salty! And needs to go back to grammar school. But hey, at least you are getting your wish on what you would rather be than a ‘Bamer’ (btw, I believe it’s spelled Bammer, not Bamer – not sure what a Bamer is…). Anyway, enjoy losing to a first year head coach on Halloween!
Bamer is you !!
Lol, this is coming from the fan base of psychopaths that have no self control win or lose.
