Around SBN: Don't Blame Wes Welker

Cocktail Thursday: Louisiana Ragin' Cajun Edition.


Now that you have at your disposal too much information about the Georgia Bulldogs' upcoming game against the University of Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns, your head is probably spinning a little. If you've also read Doug's manic depressive take on the game, you may be unsure what to believe. Perhaps a quick drink would steady your nerves. Allow me to help.

As Kyle rightly noted, a Bulldog loss to UL is highly unlikely. Look, we pride ourselves on seeing the red and black glass as half empty. It's kind of our schtick. But even we have a hard time imagining the General  Custer blissfully playing canasta aboard the Titanic-type of scenario necessary for Coach Richt and crew to louse this one up. I could see it being uncomfortably close due to poor offensive execution, a defensive lapse here and there, and a poorly timed turnover or three. But in the end the Louisianas of the world are separated from SEC schools by one thing: athletic talent. Boatloads of it.

While Georgia is more talented than the Ragin' Cajuns at most (perhaps all) positions, one which will make a huge difference this weekend is the tight end slot. Aaron Murray is a young quarterback, and as a slough of young Bulldog signal callers learned before him, a couple of good tight ends can make your life much easier. Murray doesn't have a couple of good tight ends, though. He has four.

Perhaps the best of the group is Tampa native Orson Charles. The sophomore who finished third on the team in receptions and receiving yards is primed for a breakout year, even though he's surrounded by talented players at his position. Orson Charles has continued to develop physically (which along with another year of experience will help his blocking), and will establish himself this season as a dominant threat in the receiving game precisely because he is an athletic mismatch for most linebackers and even some defensive backs. That all starts in two days against Louisiana.

And when Orson Charles burns the Ragin' Cajuns for his first score of the 2010 season, I suggest you celebrate with an Arson Charles:

Mix 1 and 1/2 ounces of Southern Comfort and 3 ounces of cinnamon schnapps in a cocktail glass. Then add a dash of genuine McIlhenny's tabasco sauce. It's the tight end seam route of tailgate libations: incredibly simple, unbelievably powerful, and guaranteed to torch the unsuspecting. For best results consume with a good gumbo, the kind that begins with a homemade roux and ends with at least three sources of protein that began game week either flying, crawling, walking or swimming.

I'll be back tomorrow with the inaugural Friday Tailgate. Remember that there is still time to submit your musical suggestions in the comments or via email to macondawg followed by the at sign then gmail. Until later . . .

Go 'Dawgs!!!

Excellent choice.

I might celebrate with 3 or 4 of those tonight. Except without the cinnamon schnapps… or the Tabasco sauce. (And possibly without the glass.)

And another thing

let me just say this, i want to thank the georgia bulldogs for the last twenty years. twenty years of asswhipping, humiliation, and dominance. unfortunately florida doesn’t have good clean old fashioned hate for georgia. you ain’t on our level. you’re insignificant. enjoy another five loss season.

I did exactly what I said I was going to do...

… which is, basically just have some Southern Comfort on the rocks.

Wow, guys...

What’d I miss? :-)

let's see

tank started it by jacking the thread; i was late to the party; Lane Kiffen’s called for 3 2pt conversion attempts and failed 2/3. Utah v Pitt irritated tank enough for him to say “i hate football”, which I thought was blasphemy. The ESPN announcers suck, but they love Lane. We’ve debated whether or not Lane is actually a head coach, or just the monkey to Monte’s organ grinder.

That about sums it up

Yeah.

They’re like Missouri or Ole Miss… get within a TD more than once, only to screw it up and lose by at least 10 points.

If Hawaii beats Kiffin

By the two points Kiffin lost on the 2 pt conversions…

Oh… that would be so fantastic.

I have to work tomorrow, and it ain’t exactly daylight here in Georgia the way it is in Hawaii.

Thanks for turning this into the opening night open comment thread; sorry I didn’t think of it myself. I never thought MaconDawg would be accused of putting up one post too few this week! :)

Good night, all.

It’s a long weekend… I’m sure I’ll be watching many other games in addition to this one. (And we all know SC is going to end up pwning the Rainbows.)

this just in -

USC just went for 2 again, running a play from a fully spread out line. a semi trick play. the kind high schools run. Hawaii has scored 23 points though, and that may foretell a real team can score 40 or more. i really hope Lane loses a lot of games.

Overheard pregame in Hawaii:

“Coach Kiffen, what’s your gameplan?”

“We are going to go for 2 every time we score a touchdown.”

“Um, ok, what else?”

“That’s it.”

“That’s it? Any other strategies or plans? Will you work in backups, focus on new players, check out your QB?”

“No, just going for two every time.”

“Why that, and just that?”

“I think it would be cool. Daddy said I could if I wanted. And we are prepared for crowd noise too, because our speakers go up to 11, most only go up to 10.”

“Your speakers go up to 11?”

“yea, most only go to 10, but at USC!!!!!!!!!! ours go up to 11, that’s why we are better than everyone. And I cant wait to beat UCLA, Cali, Oregon, Washington and go on to win a championship.”

“Coach, you can’t go to a championship, you are on probation from bowls.”

“Whatever dude, this is the home of Heisman winner Reggie Bush, we have a TRA DI TION here. I just hate having to do this work and wait till I show off my ring.”

“uh, ok, anything else Coach?”

“Yea, UT still owes me some back pay, those dirty scoundrals, after all I did for them……..unbelievable”
