That is Richt's record against the top 25 in the last 9 seasons, including this loss tonight.
Words cannot describe the frustration, the anger I feel about tonight's loss. It's not because we loss, it's how we loss. Richt called an offense that scored a total of 13 points through 3 2/3 quarters against a defense that's hemorrhaging 35 ppg over the last 3 games. It's the play calling, the trading of TDs for FGs that has me frustrated; and to think, a James Coley called offense put up more big plays than a coach who has won 74% of his games. That's unfathomable!
We don't need Richt to beat UVA, Duke, FAMU or App St; we didn't hire him for that. We hired him to use his "coaching prowess" to mesh w/ one of the more talented teams in the Nation and to beat FSU, VT, and ranked opponents. That was UGAs frustration w/ him...and tonight, I was downright frustrated w him. At home, all the momentum, and we play conservative??? There were match up problems all over for FSU and we played right into their hands. Y else do think FSU fans were finally worried? Y else do you think Jimbo went for it on 4th and 3 on the first drive?
Tonight, Richt Goldened the bed...and I pray this was just a misstep and not the norm. I pray I don't see 14-25 this season. I'm not panicked over this loss, I'm frustrated and a bit concerned. Yes this team showed toughness by battling, but the fact is, playing conservative has now coughed up a big lead to GT, and cost up a W against FSU.
