With my family of four - that's $328. Then, add in the gas money, food and several $4 stadium cokes/water at the game. We're spending over $400 per game. Then add in the 8-10 hour time commitment on a Saturday. All that to see the Coastal Carolina Chanticlears???? Really? We want to watch real football. I'm not saying we have to play a top ten team every year but how about at least picking a team that has SOME football tradition or experience. <br />For those who argue "it works for Florida", you need to face facts. We are NOT Florida. Our program is light years behind Florida and most of the rest of the elite in the SEC right now. The elite didn't get that way because they play creampuffs. It is because they are well disciplined, well coached, strive to live up to expectations and are motivated to succeed. This is something Georgia has lacked for a while now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6162716793249150680.post-46579304560982045872010-10-01T10:15:05.153-04:002010-10-01T10:15:05.153-04:00Anon 11:39 I'm going to assume you are the sam...Anon 11:39 I'm going to assume you are the same poster that quotes endlessly about the failures of CMR. <br /><br />If that is the case and you really want him out who would you suggest we get to replace him? <br /><br />It's easy to dig up sats and post them ad nauseum but much more difficult to add constructive solutions. <br /><br />I think it is safe to say WE all await your words of wisdom.

Look at the difference between last year's Stanford/Wake game (noon ET, Stanford 17, Wake 24) and this year's (8pm Pacific, Wake 24, Stanford 68). See also, Stanford's early-round exits from every NCAA tourney in which they get shipped east for the noon or 2:00 tips.<br />Do you follow any of the UGA players on twitter? How often do they post before noon? After Midnight? They're on college-standard time, which is closer to PST than EST for regular people.<br /><br />I, for one, am disappointed by the Oregon announcement. I've been to some crappy bowl games (worst: Seattle) and some great ones (best: Rose). In every case, I skipped family holiday stuff that I sorta' regretted, later. I've never regretted a weekend in September, though. Plus, in the rare event your team goes to a BCS bowl, travel planning is a PITA (and Glendale comes up as often as New Orleans), but you get years to plan for OOC roadtrips. I'd be headed to Denver this weekend, for sure, if their stadium was larger than a Dixie cup.<br /><br />Is anyone honestly excited for a noon kick against Charleston Southern?Prince_Lightfootnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6162716793249150680.post-63195431076426551942010-09-30T20:51:51.277-04:002010-09-30T20:51:51.277-04:00http://rebuildingthedawgs.blogspot.com/http://rebuildingthedawgs.blogspot.com/Papa Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08701213607951505113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6162716793249150680.post-72321099758832797372010-09-30T15:55:36.272-04:002010-09-30T15:55:36.272-04:00Good move by McGarity.

You lose 3 hours, play a 7-8:00 game (which is like playing at 10-11:00), then board a plane and get home the following morning, essentially losing a full day to prep for the next game. Western teams traveling east gain 3 hours, night games are no big deal, they and get home at a reasonable time. The only thing those games do to a team is tire them physically and mentally. <br /><br />McGarity was right about strength of schedule and championships - there is no RPI in college football. Scheduling tough out of conference games may be good for entertainment, but it does nothing to strengthen a team's position to win a championship. Playing Oregon means nothing more to the voters than playing Georgia Southern, unless you lose. It's a no win situation in my opinion.Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17810485267966960481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6162716793249150680.post-31816432506624372722010-09-30T15:55:01.372-04:002010-09-30T15:55:01.372-04:00Anon 3:31,

After McGarity was hired for the job, many also said that could be a bad thing for Richt, as there is no past history or relationship between the two. I initially scoffed at this idea and figured McGarity will support Richt. At least, publicly he is. But I like the idea of a new AD with new philosophies. He was under the tutelage of Jeremy Foley, and look how much value he has added to Florida athletics. Some guys may not like it, but I trust that McGarity will get us, as fans, and members of the individual teams, to where we want to be: in championships.

Sure, the match-ups are more intriguing and it definitely helps our strength of schedule, but, in terms of a BCS Championship, strength of schedule won't even matter after you drop a couple of those games (sometimes even dropping one will take you out of the picture).<br /><br />It seems to me that the trips out West and the insane scheduling (on top of our brutal SEC schedule) of the Evans-era was complete self-sabotage. Florida, Bama, and even LSU to some extent have all proven that the SEC schedule is enough to merit being in the BCS Championship debate. Why do we feel we need to prove anything more than that and repeatedly, keep shooting ourselves in the foot?<br /><br />It's a damned if you do, damned if you don't scenario. You've got fans clamoring for big games and putting down the cupcake schedule, and then you've got fans who would love us to at least be in the position to compete for a Championship every year. I tend to stray toward the latter. I just hope those who complain about the scheduling aren't the same ones clamoring that they want a National Championship. At that point, you're completely delusional.Charlestowne Dawgnoreply@blogger.com
