The Sunday Treatment & A Trip Around the Dawgsophere: THWGT Edition

DAWGS 41 - NATS 34

For me personally, it's as if the 1999 game has finally been fully exorcised. No, 2002 didn't do it. 2004 Reggie Ball? Nope. 2006 and 2009 might have finally gotten 1998 paid back. No, it wasn't until last night that I truly felt like things, in a karmic perspective, were finally set right. We ripped their hearts out and broke their noses.

The techies are in a bad way right now. I mean really bad. After enduring perhaps our most heartbreaking loss ever just a few weeks ago, I could almost feel myself feeling a little sorry for that crowd. Almost. I mean, it's Tech. So...no - not really. It seems as if most of the tech crowd is turning against CPJ. That's a shame...

What a crazy game. And after the season we've had, would you have expected anything less?  After being down 20-0 and then 20-7 at halftime, it seemed as if the Golden Tornado finally had our number this year, but that just wasn't gonna happen. Todd Gurley was going to make sure that wouldn't happen. The same with Hutson Mason, Chris Conley, our O-line, the D in the 2nd half. It was a true team win, and it was absolutely beautiful. And the final play of the 2nd OT? We batted the pass DOWN. Gotta love that.

So let's check the pulse of the DawgNation and take...

A Trip Around the Dawgsophere 

• Probably my favorite recurring Dawgblog post: Dawgsports' Mark Richt Victory Watch
• Tyler's Sunday Morning Comes over at Georgia Sports Blog
• Good take over at the GOTTASUPPORTEM Blog
• Seth Emerson, from the Macon paper, gives his recap.
• The Senator hasn't posted his recap yet, so be sure to visit later today.[UPDATE: "Observations from the 20: UGA-GT Edition]
• Bernie thinks it's a great day for America. Agreed!

Five in a row. 12 out of 13. Like I said yesterday, Richt owns Tech so bad that he pays Fulton Co. property taxes! All is right for another 365.

GO DAWGS! 

Some Quick Saturday Thoughts & To Hell With Tech

Greetings! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. We had a nice one.

I listened to a good bit of this one on the radio yesterday and I'm pleased to report that our Hoop Dawgs finally got another win under their belt. Yes, it was Appalachian St. and yes, they're from the SOCON (but hey - remember Davidson), but our Dawgs looked pretty darn good as we witnessed another great game out of Charles Mann. That kid's a baller. Final: Dawgs 71 - App. St. 53.

So now it's Clean, Old-fashioned Hate. Georgia Tech. The Golden Tornado. The NATS. The Nerds. "What's the Good Word?" "Piss on 'em," the Flagboy, and the rest of their weird, pathetic crap.

They suck, and I hate them...

We've won 11 out of 12 from that crowd. Richt owns Tech so bad that he pays Fulton Co. property taxes.

And don't let anyone tell you that Buzz and Co. are not our main rivals anymore. Yes we own them. Yes they're pathetic. But who do you hate losing to the most? That's how you tell who your biggest rival is. Still pissed about 2008? Hell, I'm still pissed about 1999!

Keys to the game? Line up and knock the everlivin' sh!t out of 'em! Seriously, I think if Gurley does his thing, Mason plays a smart, solid game with limited mistakes, and if our D can continue playing like they have the last two games, I don't see how we don't win...probably by a couple of touchdowns. Of course the wildcard would be special teams play, but they do seem pretty improved over past month.

Bunch of great games on today. Can't wait to get in front of the TV.

GO DAWGS! GATA! TO HELL WITH TECH!
