Hey dawg fans! Let's talk a little about the upcoming Georgia vs. Alabama game. The dawgs are looking to be a 7 point favorite in this matchup, however don’t think that this will be a walk in the park. Bama has a great looking top 10 team this year. With outstanding play from John Park Wilson (QB) Bama has been looking good so far this year. Last week they beat up on Arkansas, winning the game 49 to 14. Though you hear espn talking Alabama’s offense up, that game was taken over by the Bama defense. I will tell you one thing they will have a different animal on their hands coming into Athens. Matthew Stafford is making a push to be in the Heisman race. He has already thrown for 5 touchdowns and 919 yards. He has yet to turn the ball over with an interception. And maybe just maybe you’ve heard of this human highlight reel we have in the backfield Knowshon Moreno. This kid is everything a Georgia fan has been dreaming about since the great Hershel Walker graced the field between the hedges. Knowshon has already put up 9 touchdowns in 4 games and look for him to add to it by driving over and hurdling everyone in his Heisman path.

                                “Black out or Concussion?”

Black out or concussion? You decide but regardless it was a sad day in the bulldog nation when Bama went up 31 to 0 during the first half. We just seemed to lose our energy real fast and in a hurry. I believe the turning point was during the first drive. Alabama was driving down the field and we are thinking…. Damn those boys on their O-Line are huge. Then we get some pressure around the left end John Parker Wilson (Bama QB) throws and completes a pass to his halfback, who turns and takes it up field. Our defense lays a good lick on him and the ball comes loose…. GEORGIA BALL ! Wait a minute flag down on the play. Apparently while getting pressure on the QB our defensive end jumps in the air in attempt to tackle the QB while coming down his hand grazes and I mean grazes the QB’s helmet. Roughing the passer is the call… Bama Ball first down. What has our football come to when we stress such a rule. I can understand late hits and trying to knock the QB’s head off his shoulders for that penalty. But we did not obstruct or hinder the QB or his pass. They completed a good pass and then we knocked the piss out of him fair and square. So shortly after the penalty Bama scores. Momentum is the key and we lost it.
