Why Winning the 2010 Liberty Bowl is Critical to the Future of Mark Richt and the Georgia Bulldogs
Although I formally previewed the Georgia Bulldogs’ Liberty Bowl date with the Central Florida Knights in yesterday’s installment of Too Much Information, there is more to a proper look at Friday’s showdown than any mere examination of statistical minutiae may reveal. I am referring not to the...
Why It Is More Important for the Florida Gators to Get Worse Than for the Georgia Bulldogs to Get Better
Last Wednesday, Braves & Birds made some interesting observations about the Mark Richt era, one of which was this: Richt benefited from a weak SEC. . . . Richt's heyday corresponds with the conference's weakest period. Steve Spurrier had been replaced by Ron Zook, Phil Fulmer and Lou Holtz were...
