The lingering UGA shoulder chip

[kidbourbon]

1) Georgia really believes they should have been playing in the nat'l championship.
2) There is no reasonable argument to back up that belief.
3) Nonetheless, our win over Georgia looks even better in hindsight.

That makes it easy to mock them. Sarcastically mention Herschel Walker at least once a week. It'll get under their skin.

UGA could probably beat LSU right now. I have not thought about how the Dawgs would match up with Ohio State. Given the UF loss, my guess is the Dawgs will be ranked in the top 3 preseason for 2008.

Why would you do that? Herschel was awesome. I do not understand where you are coming from with this comment.

Before ut/uga games, I like to say stuff to uga fans like "hey, is herschel coming today?" Or basically just anything to imply that the fan base is still stuck in 1981. I've had excellent success using this as a heckling technique.

[VolunteerHillbilly]

A lot of the UTK fanbase is stuck in 1998. Not sure what the difference is at this point. History is history. I guess I'm in that unobtrusive class of fans that just goes to watch the games and fellowship with friends rather than trying to start a riot.

Winning their half of the conference is sort of a pre-requisite to your proposed hypotheticals. They failed the pre-requisite.

I'm off to work.

actually, the Dawgs tied UTK for the East kid.

At least you live in Brunswick. Living here in Atthens, it will be Dawgs 24/7 for the next month. Hopefully I won't have to listen to that darn hobnail boot call by Munson more than 10 times a day for then.

Too bad a tie doesn't get you in.

That works better if there's no head-to-head. And are you really comparing Wisc and Hawaii?

[TravisHenryCBlockedMe]

Hawaii looked tiny compared to Uga. Only a blind homer would have thought that Hawaii stood a chance. Its like being Southern Miss and being proud of it.

[VolsRule]

The uga fans at my office today are furious that UGA is not playing for the national title next week, claiming they are "easily the best team in the country."
