It's not a stretch to assume Georgia beats UF this year. After all, the Dawgs are 5-1 vs. the defending national champions over the past 43 years. Georgia vs the champs:
- 2004: UGA vs. LSU (home) -- W
1999: UGA vs. UT (away) - L
1997: UGA vs. UF (neutral) - W
1991: UGA vs. GT (away) - W
1982: UGA vs. Clemson (home) - W
1965: UGA vs. Alabama (home) - W
- National Title Game: USC vs. West Virginia
Rose: Cal vs. Wisconsin
Orange: FSU vs. TCU
Sugar: LSU vs. Louisville
Fiesta: Texas vs. Georgia
Unrelated, but MSNBC also has a recruiting article up that profiles the Bulldogs 2008 class.

PWD - Assuming we don't make the national title game, there's no one I'd rather play than UGA in the Fiesta.
Fingers crossed. . .
He goes out on lots of limbs. Louisville with a new coach in a BCS Bowl at the same time as West Virginia? TCU in a BCS Bowl? I love TCU but they're not going to a BCS Bowl any time soon. The only games on this list that even look reasonable are Rose and Fiesta. And Ohio State isn't going to be any worse than last year. That doesn't mean a national title shot but it probably does mean a BCS Bowl.
I just wish the Cotton Bowl hadn't turned into a mid-tier. I'd love to see a BCS-calibur matchup between UGA and Texas in Dallas.
I don't give a damn about a BCS bowl birth at this time. Our main priority should be to whip the hated Gators in Jacksonville. Sure I want a solid 10-win season but we have GOT to beat Florida!
ANYTIME you predict UGA beating the gators you are going out on a limb....Lets face it.This series has been skewed since the NINETEEN EIGHTIES PEOPLE!
I am a loyal Dawg,and I know that sometime in the future this series will,if not flip-flop,will at least even out a little better.
Until then...make me know it.
What did the nerds win in 1991?
Sorry - typo - 1991. I'll fix it.
what makes him think FSU will be back? I know of NO ONE else, even FSU fans, who think that.
Anon - I think they'll be back. Here's why:
1. FSU still recruits at an elite level.
2. FSU's offense has sucked since Richt left b/c Jeff Bowden is a wretched offensive coordinator.
3. Jeff Bowden is gone.
4. Their OL has been poorly coach. Their OL coach is gone.
5. Their QB play has been bad. Their QB coach is gone.
Their obstacles to success on the coaching staff are all gone. Why wouldn't a team with Top 5-10 talent not play well if they were well coached?

you may be right about FSU, but I surely hope not. The FSU fans I know are about as obnoxious about FSU success as, well, I am about UGA. :)
I still don't think they will make a BCS bowl, but a new year's day bowl would be a big improvement from the last 2 years.
