The Moreno the Better
Thoughts on Troy vs. UGA later. For now...
Updates around the Dawg Nation as of tonight:
- -- The AJC says that Thomas Brown may play vs. Auburn, but Richt isn't saying how much because it all depends on how he practices on Tuesday. The AJC also says that Kade Weston's ankle looks to be in pretty solid shape.
-- Update: Ching has more injury news from the Sunday conference call.
-- DawgPost.com explains why Remarcus Brown and Asher Allen were both returning kickoffs. Apparently, Asher was just winded from playing so much DB. Editorial: Why on earth was Prince Miller one of the blocking backs for the kickoff return team? We've got umpteen fullbacks and tight ends. Is it really the best idea to have one of the smallest men on the team blocking in that spot? He's not always out there, but it makes no sense to me when he is.
-- AUTigers.com ($) says that the Tigers are in pretty good shape despite playing 10 games in a row without a bye week. Plus, it sounds like they're getting damn near everyone back for the Georgia game. Groves played on Saturday vs. TTU; although, he played linebacker instead of DE. One of the reasons the 10 games in a row might not hurt the Tigers is the heavy, heavy use of backups vs Tennessee Tech.
-- Auburn has a new #2 quarterback; although, they don't plan on using him. They expect Cox to go the distance.
Tony Barnhart talks about conference champion and BCS scenarios in the AJC. It's interesting that Tommy Bowden now controls his own destiny at Clemson. Can you imagine Clemson vs. Georgia in the Orange Bowl? It's a huge stretch but possible if Clemson wins out, Georgia wins out, LSU loses to ARK, and UT loses to LSU in the SEC Championship game. So you're saying there's a chance. We could also play them in the Sugar Bowl, but that would require another very long list of things. Regardless, it would be cooler than playing a half-assed Hawaii team.
