Probably my only complaint about O or D gameplan...

It seemed like we finally got our running game going, and went empty for 7 straight plays. At the very least, we need the PA threat. Very frustrating.

What Assholes

Statement regarding officiating decision in Georgia-Texas football game​

October 20, 2024

Statement from the SEC Office:
With 3:12 to play in the third quarter of the Georgia at Texas game, Texas intercepted a pass at the Texas 46-yard line and returned it to the Texas 9 yard line. Texas was flagged for committing defensive pass interference on the play which resulted in Georgia maintaining the ball with a first down.
The game officials gathered to discuss the play, which is permitted to ensure the proper penalty is enforced, at which time the calling official reported that he erred, and a foul should not have been called for defensive pass interference. Consequently, Texas was awarded the ball at the Texas 9 yard line.
While the original evaluation and assessment of the penalty was not properly executed, it is unacceptable to have debris thrown on the field at any time.
The disruption of the game due to debris being thrown onto the field will be reviewed by the Conference office related to SEC sportsmanship policies and procedures.

They conveniently ignore the penalty had already been assessed (spotted) snd was reviewed (unreviewable call) based on the UT board loop during the the trash throwing.

You never get any better when you refuse to admit what you’ve done wrong the whole problem with the SEC officiating.

That Sankey felt the need to come out last week and say the officials blew the call on Kirby and he should have been penalized 15 yards.

I find of very interesting what when and how often he personally chooses to criticize his officials or a team.

Might be interesting to see how many other penalties he’s personally spoken to the press about over the last few years.

And let’s see if bottle throwing gets the same attention from him personally as a sideline shove. Sounds like he’s already defending reversing an already accepted and assessed penalty via his surrogates.

Kirby however should have been flagged.

Sanken is a money grubbing vat of corrupted human flesh that has done more to destroy the conference than anyone since the guy who originally let tech in.

Hey - but that’s just me

I bet...as good as our kickers are that we have shown in practice at some 90 percent clip we can top the ball and create chaos and usually at worst it goes past first guy always on a high bounce so at best they get it at the 35.

But today..it got cut off.

I just can't believe that was a regular random squib or the kicker missed the ball that badly...they are too good and can do lots of crazy kicks nobody would usually see

You know what would be good this morning..... Texas tears. Let's have 'em boys.

I can’t tell you how many Texas fans that I know that “warned” me that this Texas team is like no other team we’ve seen. I simply reminded them that this UGA team is accustomed to games of this magnitude. It’s fun to be right. One thing that I haven’t heard a lot about….our special teams were elite. Punting and kicking were fantastic and very much a game changer. And the flea flicker call at the end of the 3rd quarter, Bobo is a damn good OC. Top 20 win in program history. Go dawgs!!

And WRs. Beck is inaccurate and whenever he is accurate we’re dropping everything in sight. Our passing game is frankly hard to watch.

Saw an absolute clinic on Texas’s dime.

For SEC Officials to attempt to do or actually do something to influence a game one way or the other? I officiated GHSA football for 25 years, and I can honestly say I never intentionally did anything to influence the outcome of a game, and I have always given other officials the benefit of the doubt. You can be bad but never biased is what I believed until last night.

The difference is simply money. Not for the officials but for the SEC and ESPN. Many have believed for years that Alabama got help. Why? No huge local television market but a national following. Texas has multiple huge television markets and a national following. They are going to get more help than Alabama ever did. Followings equals ratings and ratings equals money.

The way that penalty was waived
off last night was egregious. In the GHSA, the offended team would have rightfully filed a report last night. If a flag is going to be waived off, it must be done immediately after the call was mutually determined to be wrong, and the bottles on the field should have been a delay of game on Texas. PI is not reviewable, but once they saw the big screen replay is when they seized the opportunity. The conference and the network wanted TX undefeated, and the officials tried to help.

Prior to last night I would have laughed at this post, now I’m posting it. The SEC will do nothing of any consequence, because they are partially behind it and fully compromised. The crew should be suspended, but it will never happen.

Hell my old ass was ready to run through a wall for the guy last night after his on field post game interview lol

How do you fix this penalty that is now being openly lobbied to be called on every big hit in football (by coaches too) and can be reviewed on every play. It needs to be only called only on field for one thing and should be called sparingly on plays where the offensive player comes in low. Further what is good for the goose and good for the gander. On dan’s play, offensive player should have been called also. I hope the rules committee makes some changes. Football is a violent sport. Can’t take all of that out of game.

along with more Ellis Robinson pt and this team will start peaking.
Williams and Walker on the field will win a Natty

Anyone got the clip? He got up, looked at the ref, said targeting and made the motion to him….. no review.

Stetson like

The word going around now is that he would've been fired during the BYE week had the Gators lost to UK, and that the U of F already has his interim replacement picked out, and that person is a current analyst for the U of F. Now that they won against UK a victory over UGA or LSU is pretty much the only thing that can maybe save his job, and the U of F is planning to pull the trigger before the regular season is over.

From the Texas board.

I thought the UGA fans were behaved quite well pregame and around the tailgates, etc. But once the game started, and especially in the stands, the fans around me in section 6 were terrible and made the game watching experience unenjoyable. One group was escorted out of the stadium. I'm not sure if this is the norm in the SEC, but this is twice now (LSU in 2019) where visiting SEC fans have not been the best. The UGA fan that was escorted out, prior to being kicked out, yelled at my wife "THIS IS HOW IT IS IN THE SEC" as spit came out of this mouth onto her and others around her. No bueno.

Welcome to the SEC.

Boom, &$8;:3?!./@&$…

to the fan experience from his perched seat. Could easily get a beer or some food and return to your seat during a t.v. timeout. No waits for anything. Maybe he’ll learn something.

I laughed when Georgia barely put this in its official game notes and that might be a reason that the broadcast didn't talk much about it

but if you read my article from earlier this week - i had it in there



But anyway, he is the list of fhte quickest to 100 wins by a FBS head coach (or what the highest football at that time... since most were very early)


Gil Dobie ---- 108 games (North Dakota Agriculture, Washington, Navy, Cornell) - 100-5-3
George Woodruff - 109 games (Penn) - 100-9
Bud Wilkinson - 111 games (Oklahoma) - 100-8-3
Fielding Yost - 114 games (6 teams) - 100-10-4
Knute Rockne - 117 games (Notre Dame) - 100-12-5
Chris Petersen - 117 games (Boise State/Washington) - 100-17
Kirby Smart - 117 games (Georgia) - 100-17

It was obvious that our pass rush was disruptive in the first half. We started the second half in a base defense with no blitzing. This allowed them to run their offense a lot easier. Why change what was working?
Once we went back to blitzing the defense was dominant again.

The 1st one was aided by a missed squib kick, a face mask and PI penalty.

The 2nd one came right after the refs got their deposit notification from the bank.

TOTAL DOMINATION!!!!!
