Dawgs Win, Johnson Downplays Defeat

What's up, ya'll? It's been an interesting week in the state of Georgia. Last Saturday, Mark Richt took his "bad news Bulldogs" over to Craplanta and defeated the then #7 georgia tech yella jackets 30-24. Whooooooooooooo!!!!

Sorry for the lack of professionalism, but that was pretty sweet. I'm also sorry for the lack of class G.I.T. coach Paul Johnson showed on the radio. In an interview that caught the attention of the AJC's Bill King (the Junkyard Blawg), CPJ decided to throw some stones, shortly after his defense appeared to have none. King quotes Johnson referencing Georgia's program with these "sour grape-ish" quotes:
"What have they done to be the mark for georgia tech football? What's the last thing they've won? 1980?"

Oh, the dreaded 1980 line. Didn't think I'd ever hear an opposing coach throw out such irrelevant trash talk. You see, most of them at least pretend to have some class. But, Johnson is a different character.

In case he forgot, the last thing UGA won, was a game the Dawgs were expected to lose. Johnson's Ramblin' Wreckers were ranked #7 in the nation and UGA was a 6-5 team that just lost to Kentucky. But, Georgia flipped the script on 'em. The Dawgs out-rushed gt by 134 yards, en route to a 30-24 victory in that 55,000 seat stadium on the flats.
Paul Johnson, that's what "they've done" and that's the last thing "they've won." Go Dawgs!!
