Georgia Bulldogs at Tennessee Volunteers Game Day Open Comment Thread
Georgia Bulldogs at Tennessee Volunteers, Oct 10, 2009 12:21 PM EDT
We don't have to go very far back in history to find any number of clashes between the Georgia Bulldogs and the Tennessee Volunteers which had real bearing on the division race, the conference standings, and the national rankings. While this is not one of those games, it remains a consequential showdown for both teams, each of which potentially needs a win today to keep its season from spiraling out of control.
Knoxville has been the site of one of Mark Richt's greatest victories (in 2001) and one of his most disheartening defeats (in 2007). While we're in the process of finding out which way this game is going to go, please feel free to share your thoughts, reactions, impressions, exhortations, frustrations, and (I hope) celebrations in the comments below.
Go 'Dawgs!

Which Team will show up today?
A) The Offensive Powerhouse that doesn’t have a secondary?
B) The schizophrenic team that doesn’t have an offense or defense?
C) The complete team that has taken 5 weeks to develop?
Here is hoping for option C!!
If you don't know the answer...
… always guess C
by vineyarddawg on Oct 10, 2009 12:34 PM EDT up reply actions
Bulldog statue on the back porch . . .
. . . now turned towards Knoxville.
All is in readiness.
Go 'Dawgs!
I vote Option D
Team A in Quarter 1, Team B in Quarter 2, Team C in the 2nd half

I still don’t understand why anyone ever runs against Georgia…. with holes like that in the secondary? Just have fun!!
Does Willie Martinez know...
That bending but not breaking doubles my blood pressure?
RAMBO!!!!!!
Seriously, he plays awesome, then disappears. Ealey plays well, disappears. This is insane.

Fair enough
We need to call time out again and go over and ask them to please quit running into to us…
What about the LG
McSlugger,
What about the LG whiffing on the block to let the DT get in Cox’ face to force the tipped INT?
Joe is just a little too short..
…causes problems with finding passing lanes AND seeing over rushing 300 lb DL’s in his face. This is what I think has been his problem with bad intermediate passes all year.
Run Lindsay Run!
Ok..
I wont put the blame on Cox for that one…I’m just nervous of what is to come with him not moving from his primary reciever…
I ll blame COX for that one
He needs to be mature enough to know when to cover the ball, fold up, and take a hit

Vols Fans Agree:
Bad call on the Pass Interference. But, hey, we’re not complaining too loudly. UGA needs to pick up it’s pass coverage? Never thought I’d be saying that.

Great. Get back on the field Defense.

If I had my way, I'd give a coconut to everyone.
Competition for which coverage is worse:
Our secondary, or their kickoff?
ST is gonna put me in therapy
If I had my way, I'd give a coconut to everyone.
Lets see how our KO coverage does on this kick
If Walsh doesn’t boot it in the endzone

Rennie
How long can we expect him to make every tackle on the field? At some point someone else on the D needs to play a little better. What happened to Houston?
But that was a poor tackle by Rennie
not sure why he’s not finishing, when he’s been so reliable

This whole bend don’t break ideaology is out the window, because there is no more bending, it’s BROKEN !!!!!!!
And what does Willie have to do with the TOs and the run game? There are problems in every single department which I lay at the feet of CMR, even though I am a huge cmr fan

Bailed out.
Maybe that’s why Marlon hasn’t been in…
Never mind.
Don’t they usually call that before the play happens?
Calling Fouls
False Start = Dead Play…
Defensive Offsides … ONLY Dead if there is unimpeded to the QB
Get it right!!
Not that I disagree
But while I’ll question a lot, a play call that converts a long 3rd down is ok with me

Have they not seen a UGA game at all this year? This is typical!!
Wake up and fire Martinez
We’re totally lost against a simple play. I’m so sick of this guy and our unprepared defenses. Just dismiss him now and make him walk home.
the only trick these dogs have learned is roll over and play dead. Willie taught em' that!

5) TO’s

Which is why I really think Evil Richt needs to make an appearance...
….and let EVERYONE know they are accountable.
Run Lindsay Run!
Defense can win games...
Ask Ty Willingham. Our D can’t win games.
He obviously
Has nothing to do with the first four. On TO’s, he has nothing to do with the ones we give up, but we’re forcing none against an interception prone quarterback, and when we turn it over, the other team almost always scores even when it has to go over fifty yards like today. Do we have other problems, yes, but the D is consistently bad. Today, TN is looking like a finely tuned offensive machine which is ridiculous because we know they are anything but that.
At least our all or nothing special teams is producing more all than nothing today, but we know there’s more excitement coming in that department.
What bothers me most is how wide open the wide outs are. Our coverage is a complete mess. It’s time to stop making excuses for WM, he is a disaster and has been for some time.

Good discussion, but
We have so many problems. All of these still keeps my believe a full house cleaning is in order. Willie is horrible, but CMR is the lead dawg. CMR wasn’t even wearing a heAdset the first defensive Series, which is hard for me to understand. The D is horrible, but we got problems every where and they do not seem to get addressed from week to week
by tankertoad on Oct 10, 2009 2:16 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions
He makes one more move or breaks one more tackle....
And we’re actually within range of scoring. Now, maybe not so much…

Really...??? We can't call 2 plays in the huddle with 10 seconds left?
Coaching and execution…sighhhhhhhhh
Run Lindsay Run!
Well a pass play takes around 7 secs.
The disappointing thing is there was no way for us to ever set up for a kick. We never should have tried setting up for a kick. It should have been going for TD play all the way.
I miss Munson but,
This season would have killed him.
If I had my way, I'd give a coconut to everyone.
Poor tackling...
and especially poor play from Miller and Evans. Ah, hell…the entire 2nd’ary.
Why are we passing on 2nd and short? I think Ealey has enough moves to get a few yards. If Samuel doesn’t see the field as a RB for the rest of the year I’ll be fine.

I have no words
Everything is a mess. I’ve said my piece hundreds of times before. It sucks, but we are going to have to accept being mediocre this year and hope to play spoiler for a couple teams.
At least Awbie is getting whipped. That would almost redeem the whole day.
Mallet looks good.
He’ll probably play Sundays.
If I had my way, I'd give a coconut to everyone.
Cover their tight end...
and drop back into these simple passing lanes. Crompton loves to throw picks if he’s baited into it. Figure that out, Willie!
Directional kickoffs: More fun than a bag of snakes.
Wait, I do have words
This is 2006 all over again. Vandy and Kentucky beat us the same way, and Colorado was able to almost beat us doing the same thing. You would think we would have learned the first time around.
The Watkinsville Rockets could own Willie right now.
Directional kickoffs: More fun than a bag of snakes.
We're really missing Asher Allen
I thought we’d be able to adjust, but our corners are reactive, not pre emtive. Is that a word? Kyle? Help? Bueller? Funk? Wagnalls?

We made good defensive adjustments at halftime last week.
They lasted almost until the end of the game. Maybe Crompton will wake up sometime next half and remember he is not Peyton Manning.
I just don't see genuine anger or frustration from the coaches or players considering everything that's going on
Its the big problem with Richts even keeled manner. There needs to be a little passion and anger to do something to fix what’s going on.

Give up 16 points on ST and a turnover. Your offense finally plays well, and you’re still flirting with disaster.

where were you.....
when I was representing myself in Child Support Court in Warner Robins by telephone?
Funniest thing I ever heard a judge say – after I got done presenting my case (b/c the ADA in HoCo was/is completely incompetent) he said he just had one question for me – What happened to OU’s defense? I figured I had better come up with the magic answer so I said, Honestly, I have no idea, I’m a Bulldog fan. Turned out it was the right answer – so was the judge =) I also won my case with accolades from the Judge. I still hate HoCo CSE – with a passion.

i am not an apologist - i am looking at the total game
I Hate this soft zone! Read: fire CWM. But the penalities, the ST, the pass protect, the no run, and well, even the D fall at the feet of the head coach. Until CMR gets some balls and makes some changes i am not solely blaming CWM. We are BOTTOM OF THE CONFERENCE IN EVERY CATEGORY.
I understand we’re not really good at anything, but the guy has been a MISERABLE coordinator for years now and has been outschemed time and time again. The effort today has been unbelievably bad, which is made even more bizarre because for the most part we looked OK against LSU. The guy doesn’t have a clue.

A bend but don’t break relies on the shortened field from the “End Zone”

As I stated in a fanpost or somewhere
I thought we would be better than this this year. However, I am not concerned about this year as much as I am abou the future. The lack of adjustments through this half the season and the inablity to get a back up quarterback a full quarter of football really concern me. I dont buy the “we are young” this year arguments: we said that last year and in many other years. This is college football. You are most always going to have a larger pool of underclassman. You need the handful of seniors and coaches to bring them up. It is likely (I dont wish for it, jsut being realistic) we are going to lose several more games this year. But the question is, can we learn from it? can we caoch up? Can we make changes and show some flexibility? Can we coach at the players level? Can we scrap the play calling on both sides of the ball if it isnt working and go to something that doesnt work? Can we stop the penalties and develop a run game of some sort to free up the play action? Those are hte things i would like to see flushed out over the next games.
I am still a huge CMR fan and a bulldog fan. I actually admired CMR for many years for his ability to go with what worked versus what he may have wanted to do. I would like to see a retun to that flexibility.

He’s earned an opportunity to recover from a bad season after 8 great ones, however, he has to step up and recover this team and reclaim the great tradition that is Georgia football.
CMR's integrity is on the line here
I love the man personally. I love who he is, what he stands for and the things he has done with and for our program. I believe he is a man of great integrity. But he absolutely MUST step up and say the buck stops here and FIX THIS.
As one of the last optimists for our assistant coaches
The sky is definitely falling.
I have been…not criticized, but disagreed with on here for supporting Martinez and Bobo. I honestly still think Bobo is really good when he gets in a rhythm. But Willie freaking Martinez….are you crapping me? I’m censoring myself here but this is a flipping crock.

Tanker’s in wichita, Aero’s in Little Rock, I’m outside of Tulsa…what say we 3 find a place to watch drink during the cocktail party together?
sounds like the beginning of a plan...

I could probably
see my way clear to offer up my place as the meeting place, but I would have to warn you both of a couple things:
1. I really do live in Podunk, Oklahoma. Seriously, there is NOT a stop light in the whole town.
2. Oklahoma beer is 3.2% – you might want to bring it with.
3. All but 2 of my neighbors are at least 60+ yrs old, maybe 80+ – I will have to notify the local PD that I’m having company to avoid their visit. That may or may not keep you from getting pulled over on the way into town.
4. My Great Pyrenees is a bit dog aggressive, but she settles down after an hr or two. We could probably put one dog outside, one inside and all would be mostly well.
+1 my man
That’s the core of the issue. This team has been trotting the same issues out week after week, and now it’s bit us in the ass in the most embarassing of circumstances. I mean, 300+ yards to Cromptom?! Damn!

Lack of fundamentals in ALL aspects of game accounts for most of problems,
Penalties,
Busted plays,
Poor kick and punt coverage
TOs
Pretty much everything, but especially obvious on defense.
Great post.
Apologies for acting like a jerk earlier.

Everything sucks
Its that simple. All facets of the game are well below sub par. Oh well. I think we may have just reached the tipping point in terms of coaching staff and some starters. It isn’t going to get any better this season.
And the thing is
with the recurring problems, the coaches act like it doesn’t matter!
I really like Coach Richt and think he can win us a NC here, but his passiveness when dealing with the penalty problem is FLIPPING (censoring myself again here) ridiculous. Really. He just shrugs it off.
The announcers mentioned today that either us or Tennessee (I think us) had however many yards of penalties last year. Hearing and seeing the total yardage for penalites, he then said “They could’ve used those yards huh?”
I don’t really think of all the penalties yards like that, but it’s true.
It’s just frustrating for all kinds of things. You can focus on the bad tackling, the penalties, the offensive playcalling, whatever. There’s just too many things that are recurring problems. Getting real old. I don’t mind it if we have a bunch of young players and we see progress…but we don’t. And we don’t even try new things to get the ball rolling on the progress. Ugh.
slight clarification
“We don’t”…see progress. We do have young players, but our experiences players are doing the same crap. Rashad Jones has gotten worse it seems like since the middle of last year.
Our young players seem to be some of the only sparks, but their mistakes are the same mistakes our older players are making.

This is the second year in a row that we have seemingly gotten worse as the season has progressed.
That makes no sense whatsoever.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, a lack of discipline!
Until we find a way to instill discipline and break our opponents. the Red and Black will not be feared, we will be beaten like we have been this year, over and over again. The team really has taken on Richt’s laid back Joe Cool persona. CMR is a great man, but he’s gotta find that guy with “Patton/Erk-esque” mentality that will make people more willing to let their own momma down than that man, whoever they may be. This post may be harsh, but I think it is exactly what his team needs. A kick in the a#@ that will turn out to be the shot in the arm we need. Go Dawgs!
I think Erk Russell could have kicked Clint Eastwood and John Wayne's butts with a corn cob and one hand tied behind his back. GATA!
I think you're saying 2 different things there...
If Richt is “Joe Cool” and we’ve taken on his persona, doesn’t that make us extremely disciplined (even-keeled, level-headed, etc)? We don’t want discipline, we want fire.
You're both right, sorta
I think both are needed. Richt is calm, cool & collected, he’s the no-penalties, even-keeled guy. Erk is fire, GATA all of those things. This team has neither of those attributes and desperately needs both.
good to see UT is still raging Douche Bags under Kiffin the same way they were with sausage mouth fulmer
I think Erk Russell could have kicked Clint Eastwood and John Wayne's butts with a corn cob and one hand tied behind his back. GATA!
I am cleared in hot to hate
I think Erk Russell could have kicked Clint Eastwood and John Wayne's butts with a corn cob and one hand tied behind his back. GATA!
If we can win the rest of the season...
then at the end – Florida’s beaten TN, TN’s beaten us, and we’ve beaten FL – who goes to the Championship game?
Trying to think if any Vols will be at party I am going to tonight.
Lots of Gamecocks and Tigers since I am in SC, and a surprising about of Allbarners but can’t think of any Vols.
I hate rocky top like dogs hate cats
I think Erk Russell could have kicked Clint Eastwood and John Wayne's butts with a corn cob and one hand tied behind his back. GATA!
I'm rethinking the long-term impact of THE CELEBRATION
A lot was written this week about the refs holding a grudge against us ever since TC, which I thought was a little off. But the reaction in the press, and even from some UGA faithful, hurt CMR and I think he went into a “bunker” mentality. While that helped the ‘07 squad, it’s now seems he can’t see the forest for the trees about his own program. It’s internal paranoia and does not create an atmosphere for the critical self-analysis he must take with coaches and players.
Run Lindsay Run!
Well
if I had to trade The Celebration to win some games this year, I wouldn’t do it.
That was probably the greatest moment in Georgia football since I’ve been alive.
LMFAO @ the clueless Florida players and fans when we did that! Priceless! Effing priceless!

Agreed
But I am surprised that the continued celebration by Tennessee was not called… at some point. Even if there was a slight time out there should have been something. It was obviously celebrating their success.
Was there for celebration. Wouldn't trade it for anything.
There will be good times again. Was also there when Alabama blanked us in Hines Ward’s first start (?) at QB. Thought we would never be good again after that. Can still remember thinking we would NEVER get to SEC championship.
Yeah
The Celebration was the first and only Cocktail Party I’ve been to. I can make the trips to Athens but rarely get to go to JAX. Fanflippingtastic!
by UgaBulldog14 on Oct 10, 2009 3:44 PM EDT up reply actions
it does somehow seem to be a turning point
I noticed some of our players today holding up their hands like " i didnt do it" which means they are scared of the refs. That is bad. I think the only solution is very hard, cool, no celebration games and just prove we can act like we been there before.
To clairify my point...
…I LOVED that CMR fired-up his troops that day. But he did not like the sharp rebuke he got from the press. Ever since, he says little publicly that is meaningful, and it seems if he has turned-off listening…to anybody. Now, I pray he never listens to fans, but there are plenty of knowledgeable folks who have his ear and are pointing-out our weaknesses. Yet there seems to be no response from CMR…it’s a “bunker” mentality and keeping him from critical assessment of what’s going on around him.
More proof of this theory?….Remember the play-calling/clock management problems in his early years? He listened, evaluated, and agreed to be more of a gameday CEO rather than lost in just one aspect of the game. He adjusted because he was willing to be self-critical. I don’t see that now…more of chip on his shoulder attitude.
Run Lindsay Run!
Time to go out to eat, surrounded by all the Vols fans. Ugh
Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.
UGA became another trivia question for another QB this year
thats the second (third?) record performance by an opponents QB this season. I really dont like that.
No Excuse.
There are down years. You have injuries to key players. You have academic ineligibilities that trip you up. You have game mechanics screw you over… bad call here, bad luck there.
With an established coaching staff. With numerous highly rated recruiting classes.
There is no reason, no excuse to be 3 and 3 at this point. This season’s success or the lack there is falls squarely on CMR. I am and will always be a fan.
But when you lead an organization of individuals you need to be sure to have the Staff that can coach the recruits, and the recruits that can work in the system.
When that goes out of line, you have issues. Its time to fix those issues.
Congrats to Tenn
Congrats to both JCrompton and Tennessee. Thank you for showing us the similarity between our D and Swiss Cheese.
Yeah props to Tennessee
You won’t hear any crap from UGA fans saying we should’ve won.
As much as it pains me...
Congratulations to the Big Orange…I would like to say this whipping came out of no where but I think we all have seen the writing on the wall all season. We just didnt think that it would come from UT. Thank you for finally showing us where we stand instead of us going week to week wondering if we had a chance of being decent. I have said many times that this is going to be a long year…Well it has begun.
Bryan Evans, Prince Miller, Reshad Jones or
Maybe just Willie Martizez in honor of them all.
But no brownies for Rambo -- he was the man today.
Good suggestions
I’m kind of leaning toward CMR honestly. My reasoning – O stank, D stank, everything stank – so who’s the one guy responsible for everything?
It will take T Kyle's statistic genius, but i dont remember
scoring this many points on ST and D and not O before. Thats yet another crazy stat for another crazy game.
Yall take care and have a good weekend. At least we still have the rest of the day to enjoy and soem great games to boot. much love – peace
Georgia looked like a team on crutches that just came out of the hospital room. Just downright miserable
Georgia is on crutches…that’s for certain with Bobo being one of the crutches and Martinez being the other one…the heavier one. You might add Fabris on there for the head bandage, but the special teams were the only bright point today. If Georgia ever would have any success in the future, these crutches have to come off
by thefirstgenesis on Oct 10, 2009 4:03 PM EDT reply actions
crutches hold someone up that is injured. I see our Assistant Coaches as more like carrying around three bowling balls – hard to carry and pulling us down.
I can only think, Dear Football Gods, please help CMR have the courage to do what has to be done. If losing to LSU and UT back to back and a 3-3 record doesnt get his attention – i am not sure what will. I dont want to ride out the storm. We can get a new ST coach now. CMR can put on the headset and start play calling now. CMR can tell CWM to stop the soft zone now.
I have to believe that
CMR’s personal integrity will carry the day. Before he closes his eyes tonight, he will have in mind what direction he will go. He will sleep on it, he will pray about it, but before practice tomorrow he will be certain about what immediate changes he will make.
it would have saved me the trouble of buying stuff
but i lost one box of cookware with the movers and needed to pick up some things anyhow. I was blown away in the brownie department: they have sugar free brownie mix. I know there are people with health issues and such, but sugar free brownies seem against the whole reason in the first place.
Worst loss of CMR reign ...
Given the losses we has on the offense at the end of last season I’m not surprised we’re struggling on offense. However, this should officially be the end of CWM on defense. He was given a reprieve last season b/c of all the injuries, but now it’s obvious he just doesn’t know what he’s doing. He has a million excuses. I know he’s a close friend of Richt, but if he really is a good friends he should resign.
This is a rebuilding year on offense. We shoul really think about putting Murray in at QB. This season is officially over. It’s time to start playing for 2010.
Re: Murray playing.
Not really an option, he’s out of action with a bum throwing arm and has been for several weeks. That’s one reason we’ve not seen more of Logan Gray. If anything happens to him then Joe Cox has no backup who’s even taken a collegiate snap.
this is the first i have heard of this and the first rational explanation i have heard, but
at the same time – its a weak excuse in my book. its a violent sport. this isnt the pro’s. we dont have a a franchise quarterback. they got to play, got to get hits.
SG -
you and are have been eye to eye in the last weeks.
I shouldnt have laughed so hard at this, but I did. ) it does seem very true.
Read this on another blog:
Jim Donnan 1997-2000: 35-13
End of 2000: Fired.
Mark Richt 2006-2009: 33-12
End of 2009: ???
Jesus Mary and Joseph
I would say that this particular statistic doesn’t deserve the dignity of a response, but since such a statement is, in and of itself, a response, let me point out the following:
- 1997-2000 comprised 80% of Jim Donnan’s tenure at Georgia. 2006-2009 comprises 44% of Mark Richt’s tenure at Georgia so far.
- The 20% of Donnan’s UGA career that you’re ignoring was his worst year at UGA in terms of record (5-6). The 56% of Richt’s record you’re ignoring have been his best years at UGA to date.
- During the years of 1997-2000, Georgia attended 2 Outback Bowls and played Virginia twice in the other 2 bowls they attended (Peach & Oah’u). During the years of 2006-2009, Georgia attended a Sugar Bowl, a Capital One Bowl, and a Peach-Fil-A Bowl, where they played Virginia Tech, which I’m sure we’ll all agree is a significant upgrade in opponent from Virginia. (The 2009 bowl game is yet to be determined, but one thing is for sure – we won’t be playing 2-3 Virginia.)
- The 2009 season is only half over. Therefore, the record analysis is entirely incomplete.
- What you’re doing here is pulling out some random, meaningless statistic from a random timeframe and attempting to make it appear as though it’s relevant to the current situation at Georgia. It is not.
In summary, this statistic is as meaningless as Kanye West’s AA sponsor.

Lies, Damn Lies & Statistics
I’m sure if I tried I could come up with a statistic to support any position I cared to take about our program right now, but it would still be Lies, Damn Lies & Statistics. Doesn’t mean a thing.
That's stupid
Everybody knows that 80% of statistics are made up.
Or maybe it’s 60%. Yeah, it’s 60%. I swear… I read it the other day on the interwebs.

I just finished reading the comment thread . . .
. . . and now I’m even more depressed than I was.
Thanks, everyone, for taking part, continuing the conversation, and showing remarkable self-restraint under the circumstances.
Thanks, in particular, for showing class in congratulating the opponent on the victory. I could have benefited from following your example, had I seen it in time.
Go 'Dawgs!
