A Georgia football Airing of Grievances and Feats of Strength

While recounting the origin story of Festivus in the classic "Seinfeld" episode, Frank Costanza shouts to the heavens, "As I rained down blows upon him, I realized there has to be another way!" And thus, the holiday known as Festivus was born. As depicted in the episode, the made-up holiday consists of the airing of

Don't forget the shellacking Ole Miss put on us in 2016. 45-14. By a team that finished the season 4-8.

Don't forget that we were playing a TF QB that was incapable of taking a snap from under center and guard we brought in from Rhode Island to play left tackle in 2016.

Plenty of grievances to air this year when it comes to this latest disappointing season from Georgia. Good point Dawggy about the 2016 Mississippi game; that loss was atrocious. I would also add this most recent SECCG loss. There were enough missed opportunities that a more focused and hungrier team could have kept the score closer. Instead we dropped passes, missed throws, let Burrough escape too often, and our future 1st round LT gave up a sack that resulted in our QB being injured. I know our overall offensive struggles going into the game didnt help, but bottom line it was another **** loss by Georgia.

Interesting point about the bowl games. These things are practically nothing but expensive exhibition games with the intent to develop for next year. I'm really not sure what the future holds for these things. But if coaches don't care, players don't care... eventually the fans won't care and no one will show up.

Feats of strength:

11-2 SEC division title. That ain't horrible.

I'm getting increasingly concerned about the Bowl Game, hearing all of the negativity from fans and now seeing that tickets for the Sugar Bowl have dropped even more and now there are a ton of tickets available at $6 and pages and pages available under $10-$20. Six freaking dollars. Is half the stadium going to be empty?

I get that we are disappointed, but come on, get excited. We are playing the #7 Team in the nation, we are ranked #5 and playing in the prestigious Sugar Bowl on New Years Day. Compare that to Florida playing against a #24 Virginia in the Orange Bowl with tickets starting at $60.

If fans don't show up, we don't stand a chance.

From what I've read, Kirby didn't say there would be "changes" after the bowl, he said there would be "annual evaluations" after the bowl just as there are every year.

As for Bama and Clemson, I seem to remember Bama getting beat by Ole Miss in back-to-back years. I also remember mighty (lucky) Clemson's season coming down to a missed two point conversion against a bad North Carolina team.

Grievance: the hiring of bloggers by DN rather than actual professional sports journalists. But, like Grizzard said back in the day when people complained about the AJC, "Hey, it only costs a quarter." Well, DN doesn't even cost a quarter, so as a reader of DN, I should expect to get what I pay for.

ShoottheHooch, what bloggers are you complaining about? Please do tell us.

Kirkhilles....it's not the fans...it is the depleted team heading to the Sugar. If UGA could field Swift one more time they would have a chance. Pickens was not even mentioned as membering the Sugar team? Three top lineman not showing I am hoping Fromm will show...Smart says he will? Cager and Blaylock no shows. Cook? Herrien? Jokingly, once I said we would have to borrow players from Baylor!! Or maybe Smart and Coley would have to suit up,..even big Luke....lololol.

The lack of real interest and focus by players, coaches, and fans in many of what has become second tier bowl games is just another reason to expand the playoffs making more bowls relevant. Having 40 bowl games in the first place is simply ridiculous (and letting teams play that only have 6 wins is just as crazy).
