Stop the presses! USA Today shuts out Georgia offense and defense on preseason All-SEC team
HOOVER, Ala. — It didn’t take long for Georgia football to get served up its first dose of preseason humble pie, and it came before the SEC Media Days event had officially kicked off on Monday.
Comments
The only thing I can argue is Jordan Davis not being on there. Our only offensive selection would have been Pickens, but he is obviously out for most the year if not the whole year.
Cade Mays, Kevin Harris 1st Team SEC 😂😂😂 what a JOKE
Good, Good !! These media pieces should just serve as a fire under our beloved Dawgs !! Though it stings when media does this I’d rather that than laying a bunch of bragging on that could serve as rat poison . The Dawgs have many, many times seemed to thrive on being under estimated than the other way around. Go Dawgs !! Sic Em !!
Keep those cards and letters coming media types.
Politically USA Today twists and lies about everything so why expect anything different from their maniac liberal sports journalists?
Jim Wallace just went from six to midnight with all that anti rat poison.
Looks about right with the exceptions of omitting Jorden Davis and having Cade Mays on there period. If anything, Mays has underachieved the last two seasons after a good freshman year.
Until as fans & players we get the "ain't won nothin' since 1980" **** off our backs, the respect will not be there.
Not sure how they derive their selections but its interesting that Arkansas has 3 selections and picked to finish 6th in their division. Seems like they have more talent than a 6th place finish. Also, the love for Alabama is a little obnoxious. Why is Saban coach of the year but has the most talented team? Shouldn't the COTY do more with less and not meet expectations (regardless of how lofty)?
I'll care when preseason awards equate to actual season success.
Not choosing Jordan Davis is the real snub...but you know folks, let the play and execution on the field in 2021 show everyone that the Dawgs deserve more respect!
GO DAWGS!!
Should be excellent bulletin board motivation for what it's worth. Still, this is just continued confirmation that the media and elite players are starting to get a little colder on UGA's lack to crack the CFP and win a Natty. Is is fair? Mostly not, but it's the position we've put ourselves in by having elite recruiting classes and underperforming against all that talent. As I've said before, this year may be the most important year for UGA football in a long time. Underperform again this year and watch us keep sliding in recruiting (we're already seeing this with elite WR and DL) and media respect. Win and win against elite team like Bama, Clemson, etc. and we'll be back in the Bama/OSU/Clemson conversation. Until then, we are stuck in a 2nd tier level with OU, Oregon, Notre Dame, LSU group.
Thanks to USA Today for doing CKS a huge favor. He will use this as a wake up call to the UGA players that maybe you want to work a little harder because you are not viewed as All American type players. Whoever came up with this list will be embarrassed by it by the end of the year. As for randyglass14 and "underperforming against all that talent" tell that to LSU's team of the century and Nick Saban and his 9 straight (?) #1 recruiting classes. I will put this UGA team up against any team in the country with confidence.
Preseason Coach of the Year?
Can someone explain this concept to me?
Who really cares about what USA Today prints.
This is great news. So when UGA stuffs Harris, they are stuffing the all-sec back. When Davis and crew soen dhe afternoon in the UT backfield, it will be against an all-sec lineman. It will be interesting to see how many All-Americans UGA has at the end of the year, having placed nobody on the all sec list.
