I'm not sure which is better, the actual outcome of the game or listening to ATL talk radio rip UGA and Richt.

They all but called for him to be fired.

By the way, while they correctly called LM's handling of the play clock at the end of the first half poor, they were equally as acurate in highlighting why he's a top tier coach: LSU took a punch from UGA and gave them a bigger one back.

If LSU works out the kinks of a growing offense, this team could be really special by years end.

Did anyone listen to the post-game show leaving Athens Sat night?



It was funny listening to all the uga fans calling for Richt to be fired!

I don't know that Richt should be fired, he's got an incredible record at UGA though he hasn't taken them to a bcs championship game, he's come very close in 2002 and again in 2007 when they were ranked higher than us but we got the go ahead (which we should have) because we won the SEC. He's also lost a lot to Florida which hurts his reputation somewhat. I think he needs better coordinators. UGA fans have been calling for the dismissal of Martinez on defense for some time now. With all of that said, we should've hung a lot more points on them than we did. Our play calling got atrocious especially with those stupid runs up the middle that got NOTHING!!! again and again! What the hell is Crowton thinking sometimes?!! Truly baffling! If the o-line can't handle the middle and at least get a push for a yard gain (no matter how many they have in the box), then we need to run some misdirection stuff to gain those critical yards. But we go up the middle over and over again like it's going to miraculously work when nothing has changed. That's just poor decision making to me on Crowton's part. Work with what you have; adjust to your weaknesses and make the most out of them. You look at teams like a Boise State who know they don't have the athletic ability to play up front, smash mouth football. I will grant you that most often they are going to get taken to the woodshed buy an athletic, hard hitting team but what they do well is to design plays that WORK using what abilities they do have while recognizing their weaknesses. That's exactly how they beat Oregon in the opener and Oklahoma a few years ago in the Fiesta. Crowton's got to own up to the weaknesses in our o-line and work with it. I think that's exactly what Malzahn has done at Auburn and Crowton needs to get it together!! With all of the offensive weapons we have, we should still be scoring a ton of points even if the o-line isn't what we all hoped it would be.

Yeah, I have a lot of complaints -- I wonder about how that first half thing happened? How? The horrible option play ad how we were setting up for a 50-yard field goal at the end.


On the other hand.

What of you're Georgia?

Richt has a veteran QB, a veteran offensive line, just as much talent as LSU -- and they were dominated at home for 3 quarters.
