I understand... you're upset. You're incredibly frustrated, upset... and mad. It's a natural feeling... the second step in the grieving process... just after denial and isolation, and just before bargaining. After we get 51-7'ed by Tech and you have a week or two to get over that anger process, the "bargaining" phase will begin. You'll say to yourself, "Well, if we can win the Music...

Michael Elkon asks the Dawgnation a simple question today. Option A: the Georgia defense plays inspired football against Tech and shuts down the triple option. The Dawgs win 24-17. Willie Martinez stays. Option B: the Georgia defense plays the same way against Tech that they did last year, only Matt Stafford isn’t around to keep the game [...]

Option A: the Georgia defense plays inspired football against Tech and shuts down the triple option. The Dawgs win 24-17. Willie Martinez stays. Option B: the Georgia defense plays the same way against Tech that they did last year, only Matt Stafford isn't around to keep the game close. The Dawgs lose 45-24. Willie Martinez goes. Which option do you choose? (If I were a law professor, I would change...

Georgia defensive coordinator Willie Martinez, the favorite pinata of frustrated Bulldawg Nation, may already be a goner after this season. If not, he hangs by a thread.That thread could snap Saturday. Or it could become strengthened. Martinez (left) confronts a ginormous challenge Saturday...

I intended to take a look at the matchup that the Dawgnation probably dreads the most this week – Willie Martinez versus Gus Malzahn – with this post, but woke up this morning to find that MaconDawg already blazed that trail. So, instead, you’ll be treated to another round of seemingly unrelated observations about Georgia, [...]

In 2007, I set the Georgia/Auburn game up as a referendum on Willie Martinez's coordination of the University of Georgia defense. Then the question was whether Martinez would outscheme UGA alum and Auburn defensive coordinator Will Muschamp. That game turned out fairly well , though things have been mostly downhill defensively from there. Which leads us to the 2009 UGA/Auburn showdown. This year Coach...

For me, at least, today is a busy day in what is going to be a busy week, so I can't afford to take Tuesday off, but, if you're a loyal booster of the Georgia Bulldogs and you're in a position to call in sick today, I strongly encourage you to do so, for today is an appropriate occasion for all loyal denizens of Bulldog Nation to take a holiday in celebration. (I really didn't mean to make that rhyme.)...

by Wade Payne - AP (AP Photo/Wade Payne) View full size photo » Emotions around Rocky Top are burning brightly after the Tennessee Volunteers drilled the Memphis Tigers 56-28 in Neyland Stadium (in a game that was nowhere near as close as the score would indicate). After rolling up a 49-7 lead with 12 minutes left in the third quarter, the Vols began pulling starters for injury insurance and...

After a 3 week run of complete success, I came crashing back down to earth in the form of a 0-3 record on last week's picks. That would be terrible news and reason for me to be angry, if my 0-3 day hadn't coincided with Florida beating the tar out of Georgia. I've checked it out, its actually impossible for me to be in a bad mood when Florida beats Georgia. I hate the entitled Bulldog fanbase so much...

Hometown: Cookeville, Tennessee. Last season: Started 3-2 with wins over Gardner-Webb, Southeast Missouri State, and Central Methodist (the last of which is an NAIA school), then lost their last seven to finish 3-9, 1-7 (last place) in the Ohio Valley Conference. Their seven conference losses came by an average of 21.5 points. This season so far: Major improvement -- the Golden Eagles started 1-2 with...

Here's something you'll no doubt hear at some point from someone: Two of Cox's interceptions and Gray's pick led to Florida points -- 17 of them in fact. So maybe Willie Martinez can't be blamed as much, given that the D only "really" allowed 24 points. But you know what? I can't believe Cox throws that second pick if Georgia isn't so far behind. It was third down. It was midfield. They were...

We at the VFA have seen a lot of lists. In fact, we enjoy doing them. After watching College Football's Final (finally- we had an 'ahem' party to get to on Hallowe'en which disrupted our CFB viewing), we can now make a couple of decisions: Wardrobe Malfunction Of The Day 1. Tennessee Black/Orange - Mmmmm..... 2. Georgia black helmets - Worked out nicely, didn't it? 3. Lee Corso with the Oregon Duck's...

You've got your pregame libation. You've got too much information about the upcoming game. Now it's time for you to have access to the five things you'll see tomorrow afternoon when your Georgia Bulldogs take on the Florida Gators. In no particular order, you're going to see: Xavier Nixon. The Florida true freshman may get the start at left tackle after Carl Johnson struggled at that position against...

I read this analysis of Florida's pass protection issues and my only thought was: can I really imagine Willie Martinez dialing up the complicated stunting/blitz packages that would be required to mimic what Tennessee, Arkansas, LSU, and Mississippi State were able to do to shut down the Florida offense? I really don't have a good sense as to what will happen tomorrow. If the game follows form, then...
