Talked to an U-of-Georgia alum... They feel like they won v. Bama

Just because one guy said this, you decided to generalize for their entire fanbase?

Havent you heard the same story from Ga fans ? or... do you not have personal contact with any

Nah no contact with any people from down there. I just don't know how fair it is to generalize all of their fanbase because of one guy.

I will say I think it's a disgrace that Georgia gets to the SEC championship and nearly beats Alabama and can't even get a BCS bowl game.

Hindsight is 50/50 but...

Saban NOT calling a timeout close to the end of 1st half was a bonehead move... IMO , Bama would have score a TD after AJ's nice run instead of a FG. But Ala won

Richt NOT screaming and gesturing 'spike the ball' close to the end of game was a bonehead move... IMO , Ga would have score a TD and won the game

the room of paper champs and moral champs is cramped

Georgia dominated the whole game but came up short. The refs not throwing the 15 yarder at the end of the half for that bullshit hit was a disgrace. That hit changed the game! Bama doesn't score if that hit is called. The hit was so blantant the guy might not be able to play the national championship game.

maxd131 · 12-05-12, 02:01 PM

Most of them think they beat South Carolina too.

suicidekings · 12-05-12, 02:21 PM

In many ways it was a victory, considering the world was declaring them done before the game even started. Alabama won that game by the narrowest of margins, ending the game with a defensive stand at the 4 yard line, after allowing the Bulldogs to go 81 yards in 75 seconds. If Georgia had converted as time expired, it would have been considered a HUGE upset. Almost happened...

JayHorne3 · 12-05-12, 03:10 PM

More importantly Georgia -10 appears to be one of my favorite plays of the bowl season. Thoughts?

Saloon this shit

No quarantee Ga would have scored if given another play or two.

The great Nick Saban could not score in 4 plays from the goal line versus Texas AM and USC could not score on 7 yes 7 straight plays at the goal line versus Notre Dame.

Hindsight is 20/20 , believe it or not these coaches are actually smarter than the fans.

I wouldn't say they dominated. Bama rushed for over 350 yards. Georgia should have won, IMO, but not dominated.

Supposedly the ref's view was blocked, but yeah that was blatant

I was pulling for the dawgs hard

I think most of their fan base is in the dumps, but I don't know a lot of them

My only concern would be how do they react to the bama loss? They got screwed out of a BCS bowl game because no more than two teams from the same conference are allowed and FLA got a bid.

Murray looked to the sidelines and asked if he wanted to spike it. Richt said no. They felt they had bama on the ropes and knew what play they wanted to run. The problem is the ball was tipped and it went to the wrong WR.

Also, King had come off the field the previous play and they had to run him in which drained a few seconds off the clock.

I agree, spike it, but that is what supposedly happened

murray shouldn't have even looked to the sideline, he knew spiking it was the only decision to make there which is why he was already gesturing it to his teammates. if i was murray, i would've still spiked it despite my retarded coach saying otherwise. they would've easily had time for 3 plays with 16 seconds left.

mark richt is a complete fukkin imbecile who's always gotten the absolute least out of all his talent. he should've been fired a while ago, but somehow still manages to keep his job. meanwhile georgia has blown numerous opportunities for a championship.

they should just privately offer kirby smart the job right now and then pull the fukkin rug out from underneath richt, he's had plenty of opportunities.

odum strikes again.

downsouth · 12-05-12, 07:18 PM

I am a Georgia alum and do not feel like we won.

daneblazer · 12-05-12, 07:39 PM

Yeah...glad at the effort UGA put forth, still pretty disappointed. It was a well played, hard fought game. Those two teams would have went back and forth forever. UGA just ran out of time.

daneblazer · 12-05-12, 07:42 PM

Spiking the ball is over blown. Alabama's defense was spent, in disarray, and didn't have the proper personnel in. You spike the ball they get to sub, recoup, and rest. They probably even burn a timeout. Even if you spike the ball, you still have two plays left. The Bama kid made a good play tipping the ball and the Wr instinctively caught it. That doesn't happen and the UGA wr either catches the fade route or it sails out of bounds for one more play. I'm as critical of Richt as anyone, but it wasn't a bad call.

pokernut9999 · 12-05-12, 08:17 PM

Actually we did win ......... the money

you can only run 2 plays in 16 seconds? really?

Spiking the ball takes time too. It's not like the spike won't take any seconds off the clock either

PD77 · 12-05-12, 09:13 PM

I'm a Georgia alum as well and I wouldn't say we dominated anything giving up 350 rushing yards. It was a great game but felt more like a swift kick in the nuts to me. We've been on the outside looking in for 30+ years.

2 to 3 seconds max. you can easily run 3 plays in 13 seconds that close to the goal line.

daneblazer · 12-05-12, 09:23 PM

Wasn't there 14 seconds when the clock stopped. I honestly don't know nor am I watching it again. Regardless there is some argument for and against spiking.

Sam Odom · 12-05-12, 09:24 PM

Confusion works both ways... in the end Ga looked more confused on the last play

Spiking the ball was a no-brainer in that situation. 2 more plays after the spike without a doubt

.

daneblazer · 12-05-12, 09:27 PM

It wasn't an int. The Bama kid made a play and tipped the ball. Knowing Murray its probably sailing out of bounds if it's not tipped tho.

you watched a different game than most people

If you want to play the 'if game'... if the FG had not been blocked returned for a TD ... Ga would have been out of it

True... but the Ga kid who caught the ball was confused - (was my point)

Moral victories are only found in wins.

Moral victories found in losses are made by fans trying to remain certain in their team.

If you played like shit, and won - that is a moral victory.

If you played a top team really well, and lost - there is no moral victory to be had.

Moral victories are touted by people who have never played a moment of competitive sport in their life.
