So, SkyDog, care to make the game more interesting?

I wish the Dawgs luck, but I doubt you'll get much trash talk from the Dawg contingency here. This has been a rough season, and a blow out wouldn't surprise me. I just hope Stafford doesn't have a real bad game and continue to progress.

Yeah, we're playing a good team, in a bad year. Our athletes are nearly as good as ever, but I have little faith in Richt. The silver lining is Bobo, though.

This is one of the games I wagered on during my recent trip to Vegas, taking Va Tech -3. I don't feel that great about it, though.

Do UGA fans think Richt could be on the hot seat if next season is as mediocre as this one? I ask because I am curious as to whether they would now let him go to FSU should Bowden retire after next season.

I don't know about a "hot-seat" (unless it was a losing record), but he might consider leaving for FSU if he it is another flat season with not much hope for a while.

I'll take the over, actually. No offense to the Hokie defense, loose memory has me thinking the dawgs blow up on Bowl games.

I'd say that's pretty accurate. 30+ points in 5 of their last 9 bowl games, only held under 20 in two bowl games in the past 20 years.

UGA defense holds 'em, and a decent opening drive by the Dawgs ends with a 3-0 lead.

Coming out flat as a pancake in two straight bowl games doesn't necessarily put him on the hot seat, but I'm betting a few more eyebrows will get raised.

They did not come out "flat" in this game. They are just getting their asses kicked by a better football team.

The SEC is the most overrated thing in America right now.

Stafford is not playing well, but he is not getting a whole lot of help out there.

Doubtful.

Damn is VT imploding. They're playing worse this half then they did in the first half against us, and that's saying something.

Also, Mark Richt is one of the 10 best college football coaches around, and he's not running a stinky program like Tressell or Carroll. So you Georgia guys lay off him. You're not getting somebody better.

I'll give you that - between Richt and Gailey, nobody in the state of Georgia has anything to be ashamed of from a quality-clean-program point of view.
