Not that I actually expect this to happen. I am a realist, you know. But just on the off chance…
Here is a nifty little rant that I put up the morning of Florida-Georgia 2007. I think it might have worked–Georgia actually did beat Florida that year. Take a gander, people.

Guess what, people? It’s Florida-Georgia time again!!!!! And you know what that means: Time to hop into the time machine and take a blast into the past.

UPDATE: Birmingham News sports columnist Kevin Scarbinsky offers his own take on the Georgia situation, in which he likens Mark Richt to Tommy Tuberville who got fired at Auburn last year. Just one quibble: Tuberville had [...]

What? I’m hoping for Georgia to get beat this week? You’ve got to be kidding!!!!!
Uh…nope. There is actually a method to the madness here, so just track with me.

Watch what happens around the 2:48 mark. If you don’t catch it, there is a slow-motion replay that starts at 3:16.
