Welcome to Wednesday, also known as halfway to the Dawgs getting ready to face a fairly-common Homecoming opponent in Vanderbilt.
That’s not to discount the Commodores…its truthfully how the schedule has fallen. Vandy is not to be taken lightly, even if the late, great Lewis Grizzard did quip that “Spain couldn’t beat Vanderbilt!” When talking about the darkness of the Ray Goff era, it was perhaps at its darkest in that infamous Homecoming loss…but that’s enough of that trauma.
Thanks to the power
of social media, ESPN’s SkyCast angle of Chris Cole’s fumble return is making the rounds. Simply put – its a masterpiece. In terms of crowd pops, it might be the biggest since the start of the Arkansas noon kickoff in 2021.
Speaking of the interwebs, here’s the reminder that there is wrong, and then there is Colin Cowherd wrong. Pro tip: Don’t let any of your Georgia Southern friends see the below…
I guess imitation is the most sincere form of flattery? A trademark of Jon Sumrall’s weekly regimen in Gainesville is “Bloody Tuesday.”If that sounds familiar – it is – as its a phrase that Kirby Smart made famous at some point after coming to Athens. Look, coaching is a lot of monkey-see, monkey-do. There are NO secrets. So you really think play designs are all devised on some secret cave? It happens through someone seeing something and saying, ‘hey, we should implement that.“ These coaches text back and forth and are going to know what one another does.

In terms of defensive players, one of the more famous European Bulldogs is Richard Tardits, aka Le Sack. He held the school’s sack record until David Pollack shattered it. The next one may be defensive lineman JJ Hanne of Germany orginally (Insert a Buford T Justice reference here if you wish). Hanne had to actually beg his mother to let him play football…that has ended up being a win for Georgia.
Go Dawgs!
