Plain and simple, an undefeated season is pretty much ruled improbable. It's the SEC, and especially in this day and age, anything can happen. We saw it last year with App State. They shocked the world. Georgia could shock the world just as much by going undefeated.
I say that because our schedule just plain sucks. Just when you thought playing Florida, Tennessee, Steve Spurrier, and Georgia Tech every year wasn't enough, you've got to slap on a trip out to Arizona State, a meeting with a revamped Alabama, a trip to the Plains, and a descent onto Bourbon Rouge. Tack on a Central Michigan squad, led by a poor-man's Tim Tebow in a Dan LeFevour, and you've got arguably the hardest schedule in the country.
He ain't Superman, but the dude can play.
All doubts aside, this team has the potential to do it. If Stafford can respond to all the hype, if Knowshon and Caleb can form a thunder-and-lightning type tandem, if the receivers can respond to all the doubt, if A.J. Green and/or Tavarres King make an impact beyond expectations, if the defense continues to grow with a great combination of speed, athleticism, and power, and Richt leads the team like we all know and believe he can, it can work. It can happen. From here on out, however, all those aforementioned scenarios have to play out to perfection. The question has moved from the potential to the will of this team. We know the talent is there. It just has to blend together methodically and thoroughly. Mohamed Massaquoi, Matthew Stafford, and Asher Allen are three guys among a handfull that I have faith in for leadership both on and off the field.
13-0 sounds mighty nice, almost too mighty. If this team can finish 12-1, it shouldn't have any problems getting a spot in Miami. I'm optimistic for 12-1. I'd be disappointed with 11-2 or 10-2, so there is a fine line where my expectations are drawn. I don't see a repeat of LSU happening for Georgia, especially with the influence of media darlings these days, which I feel we are not a part of.
It's time for the boys to let their play do the talking. Give 'em hell, you sons of bitches.
Go Dawgs!

I agree nearly 100%, with Trinton out, it just got a little bit tougher. LETS HEAR IT FOR BACK-UPS, WOOOOOOOOOOoo!!!1
Thank you for your URL Links on your blog WebPages. We appreciate those, as they truly are different from everyone else's. That's a good cross section for us all.
There are fifteen different polls who are starting UGA at Number 1 in the nation, including the 21 poll summary at LSU where UGA also is Number 1 Consensus Average.
I agree with you'll that it doesn't mean that UGA is going undefeated.
What it does mean, is that if we go 12-2 this season, we have a fine chance again to be there in the discussion as we were last season, ending Number 2 in the Final AP Poll and marking the 11th consecutive season The Dawgs have been ranked in the Final AP Poll, which is a Current Record nationally. And, The Dawgs 2007-2008 did this against the NCAA Official Strength of Schedule including postseason games of Number 7 SoS last season.
I like our schedule and point out to any who disagree with this blog report here that UGA can get it done, that the toughest game on every team's schedule who plays us this season, is UGA.
We have a lot of depth, have kept the state of Georgia which is 4th in the nation in producing NFL players behind only California, Florida and Texas, and have recruited nationally to be in this position we earned.
What our depth does, and how they step up with the injuries this type of schedule brings with it that others do not face, will be the key.
It is not logical
