it's the Deep South's Oldest Rivalry this week. Auburn vs. Georgia...aka my favorite rivalry game of all. having grown up in the state of Georgia as an Auburn fan and currently calling Athens my home gives the Dawgs a slight edge over Alabama in terms of full of loathing and hatred. i will at times root for the Tide when they are playing a common foe or a non-conference team, but it is nearly impossible for me to wish anything but ill-will on Georgia. maybe it's the completely obnoxious fanbase or maybe it's the fact that the series is so damn close historically or maybe it's the fact that UGA has completely destroyed Auburn the past few years...but my hate couldn't possibly be any higher than it is right now. with Auburn having such a terrible season i've had to find my joy in the misery of others. thankfully the Dawgs have given me my top 2 joyous moments of the season with their nationally televised beatdowns at the hands of both Alabama and Florida. unfortunately it feels highly unlikely that Auburn will be able to hand the Dawgs a third asswhiping this season...what with their offense being shitty and all. nope it's looking more likely that Georgia will be handing Auburn their 3rd straight loss in the series and helping drive one of the final nails into Tommy Tuberville's coffin.
i only ask that all my Georgia friends hold nothing back this week. talk as much shit to me as you please. tell me my fucking team sucks and how bad you are gonna whip our ass. believe me, i can take it. besides you won't be telling me anything i don't already know. so give me your worst...because if Auburn can pull a victory out of their ass i will be talking more shit than you can imagine.

ok, knowshon is not a heisman contender. but he does have 1300 total yards and 15 TDs this season, with two games left. that ain't bad.
plus he likes him some soulja boy. and some countertop dancing.
at least the dawgs have someone on their team mentioned in the same sentence as the heisman trophy, which is more than i can say for any auburn player.
(seriously, living in the heart of vols country as i am now, just be very glad you aren't a fan of the big orange.)
Why do UGA fans care so fucking much about Heisman Trophies? Do you know that no Alabama player has ever won a Heisman? However, Bama players have been part of somewhere between six and 13,000 (depends on which points of reference one uses) national title teams. Tim Tebow won a Heisman last year and Florida won 9 fucking games. And, think about how the Heisman has not paid off in the NFL for many of its winners. It's a team sport. Fuck a Heisman. Knowshon isn't the most important player on UGA's team. At the beginning of the season, he was probably the third most crucial part of that offense (with Sturdivant and Stafford being one and two, respectively). Why should the 3rd most crucial part of any offense ever be considered for a Heisman? I think UGA should have pumped Stafford for the award at the beginning of the season instead of Moreno. QBs are far more likely to win it anyway.
He's averaged about 60 per game rushing against the three best defenses he's faced, too (South Carolina, Bama and Florida). So, I do think he has yet to play well against a top tier defense.
what did Knowshon do against Florida or Bama?
nothing. oh, okay. just checking.
notice i said someone, not knowshon. i've heard stafford's name mentioned at least as much as knowshon's in reference to a trophy that neither one will get and will probably end up in tebow's hands because he can vote for himself and crabtree and harrell will split the rest of the vote. or something like that. j. asked for trash talk, so i was just doing my best.
LSU has a good defense, he looked good there. and he wasn't bad against south carolina (79 yards and a score). i'll grant you he had piss poor games against florida and alabama. but that's because of georgia's overmatched/injury plagued offensive line.
i don't care much about the heisman, never thought he was really a contender for it anyway. QBs are too heavily favored. i'm just saying, there seems like no reason to hate on the guy. he seems really likeable.
McGringo, LSU's defense fucking sucks. Actually, it's pathetic. It gave up 31 pts. to Troy on Saturday. Yeah, a few of those guys are NFL caliber, but as a unit, it's pretty bad. LSU's defense is rated 27th in overall defense, which is pretty suckass for a team with guys like Tyson Jackson, Ricky Jean-Francois and old-ass kirston (sp?) Pittman.
