Ray Goff, you are missed. Rivalry week, cont’d. Fifty points in Athens: IT TICKLES. (Audio NSFW, but turn it off because it’s putrescent anyway.) The flea-flicker is toward the end. Watch it a few hundred times if you like. We have. The abusive, ineffective drunken stepfather you’ve never had. Also knows as the NCAA, who ended Dez Bryant’s collegiate career for a stupid and relatively minor mistake in lying to NCAA officials about visits he had with Deion Sanders. If it requires work, they demur; if they can get a good hard swing in against a single individual, they will. The filthy lean-to of mental shelters. When circumstances become complex, you can retire to the mansion of reason and cold logic, which lies over hill and dale and up many hills…or you know, you could just duck under the filthy lean-to of conspiracy. There is no SEC officiating conspiracy, because in order to have a conspiracy you must have coordination and competence. What in the history of collegiate officiating leads you to believe in the presence of either here? Exactly. To conflate either with the BCS and its elaborately rigged system is doubly quackified, since we all know the proper comparison is to America’s relationship with Chiang Kai-Shek in post-war China. (Duh.) This……may really be the fairest way to do a national championship in the end. It should be a flag you fly and can capture and immediately snag from the opposing team, in the best of all worlds, and the winning coach and current title holder should be forced to wear a Burger King crown while coaching on the sidelines. If this sounds improbable, think of how we currently do things, and then reconsider what you call absurd. Boubacar, au revoir. Boubacar Cissoko, prize Michigan recruit and outstanding name walking, is off Michigan’s team for missing classes, practices, and otherwise kind of screwing up in the fashion that young men sometimes do. Cissoko had started before giving up long plays against Indiana. Read prior sentence and evaluate Cissoko’s ability to test patience of coaches, as he had already given up long plays against Indiana. |

Had a piece of the hedge that I harvested from that day that was with me for many years. Lost it a move I think, pity that…
Spurrier be praised, amen.

Our edge in the BCS is thanks to the SEC champ game. Nothing like beating a top 15 team to close out your regular season.

Forget UGA v UF… the real game is Gators/Cocks… are florida fans as pumped as Gamecock fans? South Cack is rocking the desert camo and black uniforms for the game since it is Military Appreciation Day (Wounded Warrior Project and Under Armour)…

Dimino on 790 admitted he reads this site on-air this morning. So you’ve got that going for you. Which is…nice?

So what you’re saying is Dick Rod kicked him off for getting burnt and missing some practices? We’re talking about a man who finds himself at Michigan by way of WVU and Clemson.
Missing class has never been high on his list; Pacman and Chris Henry we’re looking at you.

c’mon Kevin@lsu, that was a low blow… speaking of low blows, how’s your mother?…. i think i heard her yelling out how much she loves the cocks (i know… she said COCKS plural cause she likes to have a lot of ‘em at one time)… had to keep going with it

Say what you like about Ray Goof, but he didn’t lose three straight to the North Avenue Trade School, the way Richht is fixin’ to do this year and next.

Boubacar Cissoko never fit in at Michigan anyway; he’s much better suited as a holding midfielder for Galatasaray.

gosouthgohard says:
I like the “traveling national championship” idea, but only if they do it boxing-style, where you can be stripped of the title for failing to defend it. For that matter, let’s make it a huge, gaudy belt for the coach to wear on the sidelines.
Also, there could be multiple titles… unification game, anyone?

rj says:
If I were a Tech fan (I’d have terrible acne but that is neither here nor there) I would not be making Ray Goff jokes since he mostly owned their asses. Don’t forget Trekies, the last time you beat the Dawgs in Atlanta most people had not heard of this up and coming politician from Texas named George W. Bush. Also some nuts were stockpiling for a computer problem called Y2K.

@ 11 – maybe i am getting ahead of myself, but they confirmed it last week and i haven’t seen any coverage of it… I didn’t dismiss the other games…. i just had to say something about carolina wearing FUCKING desert camo uni’s…
@kevin – your mother is saintly… just defending my gamecocks…
@12 – yes really… what’s wrong with a good dick joke? even though it was at my team’s expense, the day that dick jokes and farts stop being funny is the day i wish to die…

Golden Hand says:
@mutts, various. Paul Johnson sneers at your “history.” OK, he just sneers, period, but history gets in the path of that, too. Current Tech-Georgia record is Mean Redneck 1, Sunday School Teacher 0. Three and Oh is where the smart money’s going.
NATS will be favored this year, obvs., and certainly next year if Dwyer doesn’t go pro (GIT has six seniors on schollie, and only three playing significant minutes). Probably favored if he goes and Thomas stays. Maybe favored if they both go, since Allen and Nesbitt will be sticking around (what’s Nesbitt projected as in the NFL draft? 7th round “athlete?”) Meanwhile, y’all will be starting a new, minimally experienced QB in 2010, so hard to project that working out 100 percent in Richt’s tricksy passin’ offense. Or who knows, maybe Ealey IS the new Herschel Walker, minus the stellar freshman year. Don’t bet on it.
Just because Ray Goof beat Tech a lot doesn’t mean he could coach. We had Bill Lewis for three years of the Goof era, remember? That’s five losses right there, (three plus two more of residual Bill Lewis stank).

Hey Cocky….I offer for your consideration the 2001 black-out game. Be careful not to get too jacked up……

@21 As somebody who has worn desert camo for reals (in two different wars), I appreciate the gesture, but camo uniforms really should be reserved for Army. And they shouldn’t wear them, either.

NCT says:
1995? The 1985 WLOCP is much more interesting. Gators #1 and undefeated heading in then held to a field goal. 24-3 over the (soon-to-be-former) #1 team in the land? Now that tickles (unlike the Gator Bowl turf mashed up against the face whilst lying prone and cuffed — ah, the good ol’ days).. What was Georgia ranked in 1995?
Sigh. Now if Georgia can just come up with two 100-yard rushers for the day like that golden afternoon in ‘85 …

Wozzo the Wonder Dog says:
Is Coach Galen Hall missed as well? Oh, and I initially thought the date above was 1985 and nearly clicked on the link. I was in Athens in 1995 (and Gainesville in 1994). Ray Goff should be hired at UGA with the sole job of firing Willie Martinez, and then Ray should be fired (again) immediately, but without any kind of severance package.

@ Stan – yeah hate that South Carolina’s Alumni Association is pushing for a blackout game… they never go well for us… But you really can’t talk about any games during the Dr. LOUcifer Era…
@Golden Hand – thanks for your service. But i don’t think the decision was up to the school… i think under armour said, “this is what you are going to do since you will be playing on a national stage and we want to raise money for this awesome organization… we make your uniforms you will wear what we tell you to wear”

Swindle,
Mark Bradley agrees with you re: SEC officiating conspiracy theory: http://blogs.ajc.com/mark-bradley-blog/2009/10/28/the-sec-its-refs-and-the-conspiracy-theory-no-sale-i-say/
You bring up Ray Goff; I indicate that you and Mark Bradley think alike.
It’s hate week, sir.

Man I love Tech under Paul Johnson (and the when y’ll had Lil’ Joe at QB) but really talking smack to the Dawgs is like the Dawgs talking smack to us.

Golden Hand says:
@ 27 I can’t figure that one out. They don’t GIVE those unis away, do they? So if you’re just buying them, can’t you tell Under Armour to go stick it up their pretentious British spellchecker? Hmph. I guess it’s one of those corrupt coach kickback contracts.

Golden Hand says:
@32 Pfft. Georgia is closer in the overall series to Florida than Tech is to Georgia. If you let being behind in the win-loss record stop you from talking smack, you just ain’t much of a smack talker. Does this mean Florida can’t talk smack to Tech?

Hobnail Boot says:
Steve Spurrier was just releasing the pent up rage he had at Georgia for the beatdown they gave him in 1966 after he got his shiny “Heisman Award,” which he incorrectly believed to be a magical amulet preventing interceptions no matter how terrible the throw. And don’t forget that Vince Dooley owned Florida in the 70s and 80s just as much as Spurrier owned Georgia in the 90s.
That said, I’d have to really be drinking the Kool-Ade if I made any close to definitive statement that we’d finally turn the momentum back to UGA. Oh well, one can only reminisce to the good days and hope that at the least we can show Florida how 2002 felt like.

I was in Athens that day every bookey in town got trounced when everyone and there mom took Florida and the over. We then took said money and celebrated The Braves Winning The Freaking The World Series. So like Triple HHH once said SUCK IT!
