In Part I of our look at college football this season, we discussed how you never know what’s going to happen. Trying to figure out what a bunch of college kids are going to do is like trying to write regular expressions when your slashes are flipped the wrong way and you are making typos at the same time. And boy, Ole Miss sure made some serious fat fingers when they lost in an embarrassing debacle against a team in a lower division than them, Jacksonville State. And then there was Kansas, only managing to put up a field goal, which is 3 points, against North Dakota State in the…

Poor UGA VII
It’s always a sad day in Athens when one of the line goes down: http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/11/19/georgia.university.mascot.dead/

UGA Football Schedule
iPhone applications and vacation. Funny how they can end up coming together. Another app I’ve been working on is a little football schedule for the UGA Bulldogs, which if you’ve been reading this site for awhile you’ll know is my team of choice. So here are some screenshots for the app, which should be up on the App Store once I get all the details worked out.

Georgia Falls to Florida (again)
Beating the University of Florida seems to be something that the Bulldogs can do rarely. This weekend was one of the more difficult losses to look at, with the Gators piling up 49 points on the Bulldogs. I won’t sleep well…

Georgia Tops LSU
In a 52 to 38 win Georgia knocked off the 13th ranked team in the land, the LSU Tiger, ending any shot that LSU had at a national title and increasing their own. The BCS ranking now have them listed 6th in the nation after that win. Next up is the Florida Gators in the annual showdown in Jacksonville. Given that 2 teams ranked above Georgia are playing this weekend, a win against the Gators would put Georgia back into the top 5 with the potential of a national title ahead of them.

Georgia Hangs on to Beat Vanderbilt
#10 in the nation, UGA hang on this weekend to knock off #20 Vanderbilt, 24-14. Vanderbilt put up a good fight until the end. The first release of the BCS standings comes out on Sunday and Georgia will certainly be somewhere in the top 10. Next weekend the Dawgs take on #13, LSU and shortly there after get #8 Florida. If the Bulldogs can hang on to win the remaining games on the schedule then the SEC Championship game will likely net a rematch between UGA and #2 Alabama, who shot up the rankings when they won the game the first time around.

Georgia Drops Tennessee
The Bulldogs today keep their hunt for a National Title birth alive by knocking off the Tennessee Volunteers. A win over the Vols, who beat Georgia last year, blocking them for the National Title will likely propel the Dawgs up in the rankings after a little more movement in the top 10. Next up, Georgia has to run the gauntlet against Vandy, LSU and then Florida, all in the top 25. If Georgia can successfully navigate this maelstrom then they should be sitting pretty moving into the last 3 games of their schedule, which includes Auburn, #20 in the nation. The Georgia schedule is noted as the hardest in the…

Stunned by the Tide
After taking the game into OT last year, the Dawgs simply couldn’t stop the Tide in the first half. We cleanly won the second half, but just couldn’t overcome the hole we dug ourselves into early in the game. They beat us at the line. Clearly the O-Line needs work. You see, football is a game often won or lost at the line of scrimmage. This sets up the running game by providing blocks and therefore running lanes or it provides the quarterback with the time needed to make passes. The Alabama line won this game. All the rest of the team had to do was basically not screw up……

Ole Ball Coach Gives UGA A Scare
