BOWL SHOW (hosted by Han Vance)
Raw TV simulcast footage of us recording my 4th-annual bowl show (sports talk radio):
GONE BOWLIN’
One way to think of it would be an early retirement-like, second-tier type final job, getting out of the SEC pressure cooker and either it works out big at Miami or it doesn’t but, dude, you are from Boca. Half…

Mark Richt Era Wins Ranked:
This year’s Florida win feels like the biggest win of the year, though beating LSU is always good and breaking the three-game South Carolina series run was important. I’d say the Cocktail Party win of 2013 belongs at #9 on…
It’s a DAWGS World
Happy fall, y’all. Here is a unique piece of sports journalism. My daddy was a race car driver. Well, not really, but he married six times and was engaged when he died. He was a champion water ski jumper, a…
Depth Chart Battles (and Other Summer Tangents)

Mike Bobo’s Legacy
Quarterback Mike Bobo was supposed to be great, after being very good in head coach Ray Goff’s last season at the helm. That was the year I lived down in Florida, and I was glued to an old television set…
2Short
One school has the top running back, wide receiver and quarterback in the long storied history of the most storied of all football subdivisions. And the man who would be our all-time SEC leading receiver lofts into the Jacksonville night…
Next Step
So close we could taste it, we didn’t get there and had to watch BAMA go from could-have-been dynasty diverted by the Dawgs, to an undeniable champion having won 3-of-4 National Championships. Auburn won the only other in a full…
Like It’s 1980
Private school glory for the remote control holders last night, as the Stanford Cardinal (without Andrew Luck) and the little Baylor Bears (without RGIII) beat the numbers one and two teams in the BCS. One and two had never before…
Coaching Points: Dawgs Little Bit Off, Gurley On
True freshman running back Todd Gurley tied an NCAA record held by multiple players with his 100-yard touchdown return for a kickoff – on his first career return. UGA great Brandon Boykin, Georgia’s returner from last season, is notably the…
For the love of Georgia
Welcome to BIG HAIRY BLAWG 2012. After being recognized as the #2 “Fastest-Growing Blog” on all of WordPress in 2010, the largest blog host site in the world, I contemplated going commercial and getting advertisers like so many of my peers. You…

Looking Ahead to 2012
Last week of the year, so instead of rehashing 2011 it’s time to look ahead. BAMA – mighty BAMA – got dropped from the schedule as the SEC East has seven teams and now only two out-of-division slots. The Dawg…

How Deep the River
To my lady’s chagrin, Justin and I were in bowl mode at the Righteous Room in the Poncey-Highlands section of the ATL hours before kickoff. My brother and nephew and his grandfather had made the long drive north and west…
Outcoached, Outclassed, Unblemished
Georgia has not lost in the Music City in twenty years outside of a thusly named bowl in Mark Richt’s first season as a head coach, when his historically poor clock management cost us a close loss to overmatched little…
Richt in The A
Not as important what was said here tonight in the Galleria of Greater Metro Atlanta where head football coach Mark Richt spoke, as it is how GEORGIA plays here this year. How and when. The SEC East title is a…
Dawgs Again at Top of SEC Selections
With six players taken apiece, the University of Georgia and LSU tied for the most SEC players drafted into the NFL this season. Georgia continues to lead all other programs in the SEC in number of players drafted over the…
