Yep, that's Ben Jones holding a huge chunk of the end zone to celebrate the victory.

The best part? Look closely at his mouth.

Apparently he eats grasshoppers and turf.

That one's definitely going to be my computer's wallpaper for the next month.

Agreed

This was set as my wallpaper as soon as I saw it. I was also looking for a picture of the Georgia players planting the flag at midfield but couldn’t find one.

I was disappointed to see it. We complain (rightly) when the opposition attacks our hedges, but then we dig up their field?? Low class. I know FSU has a grave yard of turf stolen (though they wouldn’t use that term) from the field of important wins. That’s pretty poor in my book.

When the game was coming on, I saw the jawing and assumed Tech had started it. When it was replayed, it looked like we instigated it. Instead of running your mouth and telling someone how tough you are, just go out there and run the ball 13 times and drive it down their throat – that proves the point all the better and actually accomplishes something.

We looked like hooligans jumping up and down which only give techmites grist for the mill when they want to accuse of intentionally injuring their best player (i’ve not looked for that talk, but I imagine it is out there)

True, but Chris also has a point... you have a choice.

oh i know, it was just kind of funny to me since everyone else’s comments were so positive up to that point

I was going to write a much longer post but most of it would probably be misconstrued as many things are on the internet. Let me leave it at this:

Stupid and childish I would agree with but low class? It’s grass, it’ll grow back. The team will probably be assessed a fine that is way out of proportion to the actual offense and the players/coaches will have to issue an apology. Nothing significant lost or gained in the overall scheme of things.

I totally agree, chrisvilledawg

One of the proudest moments of the Mark Richt era was when our head coach shoved the Georgia players off of the Vanderbilt logo on which they were stomping, issued a public apology in the postgame interview, and stated simply: “We don’t do that at Georgia.”

We should act like we’ve been there before. Heck, it’s Georgia Tech; we have been there before . . . more times than against any other opponent, in fact.

Go 'Dawgs!

REALLY?!

Thats not disappointing at all. That is just passion and I love to see it. Coach Richt is a great coach but he showed more emotion from being doused to early then winning any game this year. He needs to show more emotion and let the players show more because the game is emotional. No and, ifs, or buts about it.
