Georgia ranked #1
Most of you probably already know this, but Georgia is ranked #1 in the USA Today preseason coaches' poll. I'm excited about that, but not getting my hopes up.
Here is the top 10:
1. Georgia
2. USC
3. Ohio State
4. Oklahoma
5. Florida
6. LSU
7. Missouri
8. West Virginia
9. Clemson
10. Texas
I don't see how anyone can put Ohio State in the top five.
Georgia starts the season against Georgia Southern on August 30th.

We've got a tough schedule this year. I hope we can pull it off. Arizona State in Tempe will be tough; LSU in Baton Rouge will be tough, and as always, the Pukers, I mean Gators, will be tough. But GO DAWGS!!!

Yep,
The schedule is a killer. In addition to aforementioned games (and remember Baton Rouge and Jacksonville are back to back), we've got Spurrier's Cocks and the Plainsmen (who will be seeking revenge for the last two years) on the road. I just hope the "fanatics" don't get too crazy unrealistic about things...w/ our schedule and our conference, one loss is probably inevitable and two is very possible. But as we learned this past year, you can still play in the big game even w/ 2 losses. It helps to be ranked high earlier (obviously #1 preseason is a help). I'm just looking forward to seeing what looks to be an incredible team this year. And for the record, I am not sweating the Techies triple option attack just yet.
GO DAWGS!!!
