oh and another thing....

I am looking forward to see how UGA handles Alabama tomorrow. UGA has the advantage of knowing that Alabama is not as bad as everyone thought entering the season. But I believe Alabama is going to try to do the same thing to UGA that they did to Clemson, because UGA is essentially Clemson, except better. if you think about it, there are a lot of similarities.... great skill players, offensive minded coach, way out of whack expectations of fanbase, a general obsession on what color uniform the team will be wearing every week,a single national Championship eons ago... and... a very fragile psyche in many phases of its program. I expect Alabama to try to come out and punch UGA in the mouth like they did Clemson. UGA will be expecting this. The key is if UGA will be able to then sustain the body blows that will follow. If Alabama wins this game, then it will be even more proof that the Alabama game with Clemson is more of a situation where Alabama was simply better then and better now than Clemson.

P.S. in a slightly band geeky note, I look forward to hearing two BIGTIME band programs go after each other. Guarantee that you will hear BOTH of those bands bringing the heat all night long, play after play....

WOW, Jerome, can I borrow your crystal ball ;-) Had to laugh out loud at one of the announcer's comments, "This is an old fashioned country butt kick, and Georgia is supplying the butt!" LOL!
