Where Will Georgia's 2008 Recruiting Class Rank Nationally?

MaconDawg continues to bring you the news of Mark Richt's early successes on the recruiting trail, which prompted the most recent Dawg Sports poll question: "Where will Georgia's 2008 football recruiting class rank nationally?"

The largest share of votes (27%) went to a highly specific placement of next February's incoming contingent of Bulldogs in the top five but not in the top three. The next-highest block of ballots (24%) went to the confession of faith that is best expressed in the phrase, "We're No. 1!"

19 per cent of voters foresaw a second-ranked recruiting class for the Red and Black, while 15 per cent predicted a finish inside the top 10 yet outside the top five. Another 10 per cent thought the 'Dawgs would claim the third-ranked batch of signees and bringing up the rear were the five per cent of readers who believed Georgia would put together a top 20 class but not a top 10 class.

On the whole, Bulldog Nation's expectations appear high, as four out of five Georgia fans anticipate a top five haul on national signing day.

The new poll question asks you to finish the following sentence: "If my team is going to lose, I would rather my team . . ." Would you rather lose a close one or lose a blowout? Go here and cast your vote.

Go 'Dawgs!

As a Carolina fan, I have some expierence...
...with my team losing, and that's a no brainer--lose in a blowout.  With a blowout, you've already moved on by the third quarter and have accepted the loss.  A close loss is much more painful because it's filled with "what ifs."  What if the right tackle hadn't jumped offside...what if the d-lineman from the other team didn't intercept the ball in the endzone on the play of the year to score a touchdown...what if a guy who had been smoking weed all year hadn't blocked three kicks...Ask Doug and his toaster how they handle close losses.
