Wednesday Morning Dawg Bites Wishes We Could Turn Back the Clock About 30 Years
If my math is correct, we are two weeks away from national signing day, reminding us yet again that "offseason" is a bit of a misnomer; yeah, there’s no college football being played at the moment, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t news of note here in Bulldog Nation. Here’s what you need to know...
SEC Expansion, Conference Rivalries, and Matthew 7:3-5
It had been my plan this evening to respond to Senator Blutarsky’s thoughtful reply to my posting last night, but I have changed my mind, for two reasons. First of all, my answer essentially has been hashed out in the comments to my previous posting; viz., I believe it makes more sense to keep an...
SEC Expansion, Divisional Realignment, and Rivalries: Walking a Fine Line Between Growth and Tradition
As a fan of the lower-ranked of the two Southeastern Conference division champions, I read with interest C&F’s recent piece on the wisdom of the SEC’s divisional structure, in which he had this to say: As a South Carolina fan, I despise Georgia, a hatred that is only surpassed by my disdain for...
What Time Is It in Athens?
This time, it doesn't even involve military time! Go 'Dawgs!
Georgia Bulldogs 45, Auburn Tigers 7: Christmas Comes Early to Bulldog Nation
The worst thing I can say about November 12, 2011, is that it wasn’t November 10, 2007. I arrived home from Athens and went straight to work, first, on the Mark Richt Victory Watch, and, next, on this posting, so I haven’t had time to read anything posted at the site since 11:00 Eastern Saturday...
The Mark Richt Victory Watch
It brings me great pleasure---bordering, really, on un-Christian pleasure---to bring you this week’s edition of the Mark Richt Victory Watch. I know I spend this week of the year declaring, "Auburna delenda est!", but, really, this was more of a dismantling than I ever imagined...
Georgia Bulldogs v. Auburn Tigers: Too Much Information
This week, no introduction is needed. It’s the Georgia Bulldogs. It’s the Auburn Tigers. It’s Too Much Information: University of Georgia alumnus Charles Herty and University of Virginia alumnus George Petrie met as graduate students at Johns Hopkins University, where they both became acquainted...
The Auburn Screed
Last fall, an Auburn Tigers weblogger mentioned in the week prior to the Georgia Bulldogs’ showdown with their oldest rival on the Plains that he was awaiting my annual Auburn screed. I do not believe I author such a screed, and I certainly pulled my punches regarding the Plainsmen leading up to...
The Thoughts and Prayers of Bulldog Nation Are with the Auburn Family
The time has come to begin getting geared up for the renewal of the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry between the Georgia Bulldogs and the Auburn Tigers, but, as I have noted before, there are times when even athletic rivalries as heated and longstanding as this one must be set aside, and this is one of...
Bulldogs' 3:30 Kickoff Time Raises Interesting Question for Georgia Fans
As anticipated, as DavetheDawg noted, and much to my chagrin, CBS has set a 3:30 p.m. Eastern kickoff time for next Saturday’s renewal of the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry between the Georgia Bulldogs and the Auburn Tigers. Frankly, 3:30 was my last choice, as I believe the Bulldogs would have...
