Thanks for making Saturday a great game (despite our loss)..

We had a great time at the UGA-LSU game yesterday. With our traditional tailgate spot near the DawgWalk, our group of 30-50 was liberally sprinkled with LSU folks.

Our friends brought crawfish julienne. Of course, the rest of us finished it, and RAVED at how delicious it was. The the muffalattas came out, more raves, so we had to reply with homemade BBQ pork (they raved about it), and finished with all kinds of desserts.

LSU is always the best home game for us. The people make the difference. They like to "pahrty" with us, and we ALWAYS have a great time. And they were courteous after the game, gracious as always.

As for the game, we found out later that the celebration penalty was announced by the SID's department as being thrown on Green for "excessive celebration" after the TD. Nothing more - no mouth, no symbolic hand or arm movements - just celebration.

We blamed the refs.

By the end of this week, we will have gotten over the pain of the loss, realized our shortcomings, and geared up for Tennessee. While our penalty hurt us more than LSU's due to the time remaining on the clock, and the fact that, after the return, LSU was already in Field Goal position, we were lacking in our coverage. Our gang-break KO coverage is CRAP, and it never confuses teams. That's what caused the Illegal procedure penalty for too few men on one side of the ball.

We had it there for the taking, and ya'll took it back. For that, we're in pain.

And the worst thing is, we don't play again for another, what, 5 years?

Kick the jorts back to sewer city (AKA Gainesville). Ya'll have a fan here.
