A Few Last Thoughts on Auburn

I've been going to Georgia games for what I consider a long time, but I cannot recall a more fun game than last Saturday's. We got everything, new jerseys, a loud crowd, a fast start, the drama of losing a lead and coming back big. Even Gov. Sonny's save water promo was amusing when the front row of the student section revealed "Conserve Water" painted on their backs. I can't recall a more thoroughly satisfying and entertaining game. Big passes, big runs, big hits. It had it all.

As I've said here before, I'm not a big fan of piped in music. (Let the Redcoats play.) That being said, "Back in Black" and "Soulja Boy" were great Saturday. I think even the kickoff team was dancing on the field at the start of the fourth quarter. I know Vern was.

The black jerseys were fun, but I hope they aren't a normal thing. Richt said he thought we would wear them again, although probably not in this regular season. He did say that if we are the home team, the Dawgs will wear them in the bowl game. If we wear them all the time, the fans won't react like that every time. Too much use devalues them. They should be reserved for the big games.

As great as it was, the players need to set the game aside and focus. Kentucky and Georgia Tech are capable of beating us. We still have a shot to go to Atlanta and play for the SEC Championship. Even if that doesn't happen, we can go to a BCS bowl. Either way, it will be hard to call this season anything but a success if either of those scenarios happen. So, we need to win out. We can't waste beating the Gators and Aubs in the same year. Here, I'll start focusing now:
