>There is really nothing more that you can say about the Georgia Bulldogs 2010 season other than it was an embarrassing disappointment. Despite going 8-5 last year and 6-7 this year Mark Richt still owns a career record of 96-34 at Georgia. The major question this off-season is if he can save his coaching tenure with his performance in 2011. It’s obvious that the administration has some confidence in him but the fanbase has definitely turned against him after this latest embarrassing loss.
The Liberty Bowl loss to UCF is the worst loss in recent memory for Georgia. Georgia’s defense, which has been up and down this year under 1st year DC Todd Grantham, played good enough to win. When you only give up 10 points to your opponent you should win 100% of the time. Former Georgia Bulldogs National Championship QB and current 680 the fan personality Buck Belue summed up Georgia’s performance pretty well in one of his latest blogs:
Here is what I witnessed, sitting on the thirty-five yard line. There guys whipped our guys. And I know the popular criticism is to slam the Georgia coaches, but I start my criticism with the players. The ‘Dogs lost too many individual battles across the board. Especially with the game on the line in the 4th quarter. Let me count’m: Trinton Sturdivant chop blocks on the next to last possession, which put them in a 1st-and-25 situation. Final drive: Tav King has a key drop. Aaron Murray took some bad sacks—late in the game the QB has to get rid of it and not take a sack, or order to stop the clock. Those were rookie mistakes. The O-Line couldn’t give Murray a clean pocket late. Sturvidant got whipped by Bruce Miller.
