Georgia Game Notes

Meyer had to change something. Either his QB or his offense. Wisely, he did the latter. Leak was a better QB with a couple of extra blockers in Latsko and Casey. But I still feel that his shoulder isnt 100% which makes his passes get to the receivers a tad late. I've seen him throw better than that.

I always felt that the OL was criticized unfairly for the stagnant offense. They can protect the QB only so much. They gave Leak ample time in this game atleast. But then again, Georgia rarely blitzed (who knows why) and lets reserve the judgement until we meet a team that blitzes effectively.

Georgia game, to me, is like a stereotypical Indian movie. There are certain things that never change in these games such as weird fumbles, field goals hitting the goal posts etc. And oh yeah, good guys win at the end even here :-)

Finally, we saw Mason in action and boy he didn't disappoint. He has that burst when he hits the hole. I think it helps him even more when he alternates with Wynn. Im pretty sure he's going to catch the defense napping and break a long TD run in one of these games. But now I know why Meyer had him in his doghouse. I saw him holding the ball so much away from the body several times in this game and wouldn't suprise me if he fumbles soon.

Overheard on the headsets Saturday night (Thanks to Pat Dooley)
Randy Sanders: Coach, I'm going to run a screen pass.
Phil Fulmer: Have you noticed how Steve Spurrier's hair never grays? Why isn't he wearing a visor?
Sanders: Phil, we've got to get a play in. How about a sweep right?
Fulmer: I wonder if he uses any products in his hair. Do you think he uses a conditioner? You know, they say he works out every day and you can tell.
Sanders: That's it. I'm outta here. You call the plays.
Fulmer: I never thought I'd see Steve wearing glasses. Somebody wave and see if he waves back.
