Chick-Fil-A is a sandwich, not a BOWL.
Perhaps, if they sold chicken gumbo, we could find a reason to call it a bowl. As it is, Geaux, Tigers!
Bring home the PEACH BOWL trophy.
I am impressed with the advances that JJ has made since the end of the season.
What a way to start…impressive mix of plays.
For a few weeks we’ve been hearing about how we’re a huge disappointment an that GT would pound us.
If the first drive is any indication, the offense didn’t get that memo.
Starting early tonight?
Is Nessler drunk? That’s the second time he misidentified a team?
1st & 25
That’s a bad omen when they convert after 1st & 25. We can’t afford to let these guys off the mat like that.
No disrespect to Peterson—he had good position—but a competent passing game scores the TD on that play.
I agree with your point about the short field…but is that effect any more than other schemes?
Think it might be. The triple option depends on the DE coming in and leaving a gap, Short field means the gap is not nearly so big.
The only thing that bothers me about this score...
is that 8 years ago GT led us 14-3 at the half and we came back to win after subbing Reauxhaun Davey for Josh Booty.
But I don’t believe in karma.
3 TDs
If Charles Scott is planning on the 09 draft, he’s definitely working the stat sheet for a nice finale.
Nobody touched Scott again...
I’m beginning to enjoy this game, sitting here in West Louisiana, all alone. My dog is beginning to wonder if I’m sick!
That was stupid
Ok, the call is ridiculous given the score and field position, but the formation also telegraphed the fake.
Just dumb.
Another TD is nice, and
it looked to me like Jefferson checked more than one receiver on that play. He’s had a habit of only looking at one guy, so it’s nice to see him grow as a QB.
I loved how he almost threw to the uncovered reciever at the top of the screen...
Great field awareness…..
Awesome, Awesome, Awesome.
I was afraid GT might get points on that drive, get the ball back to start the second half, and then score again to make it a close game. Nice defense. Alem is a beast.
Time to go for the kill!
And he had no problem taking off on a scramble right afterwards!
Welcome to the Pit!

Congrats!
Looks like better days are coming for y’all finally. I’m a Dawg Fan but like to pull for LSU in the west. Of course I would be pulling for Beelzebub if he was depantsing Ga Yech as y’all are right now, but still. Bring it on home now Tigers! Wow! Another six in the house even as I post.
On behalf of everyone in the Bulldawg Nation
We thank you LSU Tigers for this wonderfully entertaining first half!!!!!
Geaux Tigers!
Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win.
I Corinthians 9:24
Welcome aboard, Bulldawgs.
We will enjoy pasting Tech for you, and don’t even mind if you share in the glory!
yeah i bet you do.
I wish we could have played Defense this well against Tech like you guys, your players look like they want it and are playing like animals on defense. And you will have next year to try to get your revenge, i’m sure it will be a good game.
Keep it up in the second half. Embarass the yellow piss of their jersyes!

Support for UGA
In a previous life as a Army civilian, I was a frequent visitor to Atlanta. I knew even the surface streets. Was a great fan of Lewis Grizzardand so, had to develop a liking for UGA. So, will pull for you tomorrow.
SEC is the best, without a doubt! We may cannabilize each other, but, like family, we pull for each other against outsiders!
Let's Geaux, Tigers!
Tech will have to open it up in the air ’cause it appears that Miles did a great thing in bringing in the triple option expert for advice on how to stop it.
I was just thinking that we had not had any stupid penalties, but that late hit was the first. I hope it does not come back to bit us in the @$$
It looked like Tyson Jackson ate Dwyer on that 3rd down play.
And then GT coaches made another stupid call to go for it on 4th down. Putz!
First and goal from the one
Scott or Johnson?
2
I think we got hosed out of 2 points there.
I’m surprised GT didn’t call for a fake FG from the end zone. Putz!
No points on these last two drives,
but we’re burning clock.
I take that back
Only 3 points.
Colt David is a badass.
Tech needs a TD every 3.3 minutes to win with LSU not scoring anything.
Glad to see Colt David get his name called,. He’;s been a real player for the TIGERS
Can you believe...
We’ve got 38 points with only 267 yards.
PS Nice tackle by McRey.
Looking good, L.S.U.
I know we still have 15 minutes to play, but I’m feeling optimistic.
As a Georgia fan who wants to see the S.E.C. do well and who has put up with a month’s worth of crap from those Georgia Tech people, let me just say . . .
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Geaux Tigers!
Go 'Dawgs!
confirmed
Yeah, Nessler and Griesie have been drinking.
If I weren't an LSU fan...
I’d probably think this is one of the worst bowl games ever…first half blowout, miscues in the second half that prevented scoring.
And what about the other games today…OSU and PITT playing a snoozer 3-0.
Vandy had the marquee game of the day.
Yeah, break out (more of) the booze.
It took until 10:46 left in the game...
…for me to remember my login! Now, what’d I miss? ;)
Um...
thanks.
Very, very impressed with Jordan Jefferson.
Enough
OK, we tried a couple long passes and the fake.
Send in the scrubs and run.
Put this baby to bed.
I love this
Miles is pulling out every trick in the bag!
I don’t know, but I bet we didn’t have the cash to match UT, considering how much he demands and how much we have to pay Miles and the new DC
I don’t know about the cash…I’m just guessing.

GT's 1st & 2nd down plays
a beaten offense against a defense with a chip on its shoulder.
getting worse
Griesie is mispronouncing more and more. He must have had that glass refilled. More gin, less tonic.
Can't wait to call my brother-in-law
He’s a GT alum. This is gonna be great.
No whining
I don’t want to hear GT fans complaining about us being buttheads, trying to run up the score with bombs and a fake punt after the game was out of hand. They called time out? WTF?

What thread are you on tomorrow. Show the Big Ten that they really don’t want to play a SEC team.
Go, dawgs!
signing out
Thanks for chatting, guys.
Enjoy the games tomorrow.
I just watched a damn fine football team. Have a great day.
THANK YOU!!!
It doesn’t neutralize my Bulldogs’ loss to the North Avenue Trade School, but it will dampen at least a little bit their urge to bug me endlessly. Not beating Tech is not nearly as bad as Tech winning. That may not make sense to many, but those who understand rivalries like this will understand. Keeping them to 9 wins while we still have a chance to get 10 (over a Big 10 school, incidentally) is a big deal. And for that, I am forever grateful to LSU.
By the way, how ’bout them ’Dores?!
