HAN VANCE on Georgia football: Being George Pickens: IT’S GO TIME, he may have thought off the Flats of Tech. The blows rang out almost like shots in Atlanta as an ejection or short term suspension was clearly coming down….
Quarterback Carousel Continues; Georgia Looks to Get Over Hump
Han Vance on Georgia football: Jacob Eason is again the savior. No not our Lord and savior. And, no not “our” either, but that of Udub. He’s home in Washington, ready to shine. For all Kirby Smart’s heralded recruiting prowess…

As has been well documented here at BIG HAIRY BLAWG, Nick Chubb led the nation in yards per carry last year at over eight before badly busting up his leg at Tennessee, setting the University of Georgia mark broken in…
Talent Vacuum

An Immature Win
Our pretty boy longhaired quarterback Jacob Eason won his first career start as rookie coach Kirby Smart went to 1-0 in home games on a sunny September Saturday in the Classic City. Other than a lack of devastating injuries and…
Been Here Before
For the fourth consecutive season, the University of Georgia now has the odds on Heisman frontrunner. The last three times did not work out too well: 1. Todd Gurley got rolled up on in a close home win over LSU,…
Smarter, Older, Tougher
The University of Georgia (1785) is the nation’s oldest state chartered public university, while the University of North Carolina was chartered second. The Tarheels – a state border non-rival UGA plays extremely rarely – again came up second Saturday night….
Early Road Schedule Challenging
How good can GEORGIA be in 2016? Consider that Georgia had the best pass D statistically in the whole nation last year and gets the whole secondary back, with current heavy competition for starting spots within the cornerbacks group. Consider…
CHUBB Nation
With a first-year starter at QB and a slew of skilled athletes around him on offense, how much should and will all-world college runner Nick CHUBB get the ball. A heck of a lot. Malcolm Mitchell and Justin Scott-Wesley healthy…

Classic City Choke
Tech greatly outplayed Georgia in the second half of an instant classic in Athens. As happened in the Georgia-Florida game, runner Nick Chubb got off early then went rather quiet. While Georgia could not stop the Jackets run or get…
