Sigh...
Georgia wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie is being investigated by police for allegedly making a terroristic threat in a confrontation at a restaurant on Monday night. It remains to be seen if he will be subjected to any disciplinary action before Saturday’s game against Alabama.
“That’s Mark (Richt’s) call,” Georgia Athletic Director Greg McGarity said. “Mark will say something at the appropriate time, if there’s anything to say.” McKenzie was practicing on Tuesday and appeared to be running with the first-team offense. According to an Athens-Clarke County police incident report, McKenzie is accused of “making terroristic threats” to a female complainant at the Chili’s restaurant on Alps Road at 10:28 p.m. Monday night. A woman named Maya Labat claims McKenzie told her “he was going to call some friends and they were going to come out and he was going to kill her,” according to the report. However, officers interviewed witnesses at the scene, saw no reason to arrest McKenzie and no charges were filed. The incident remains under investigation, police said. It appears McKenzie was among those interviewed at the scene. Also listed as witnesses are McKenzie’s teammates Dominick Sanders, Terry Godwin, D’Andre Walker and Jarvis Wilson. Labat is the daughter of Patrick L. Labat, the chief of City of Atlanta’s Department of Corrections. McKenzie is Georgia’s leading kickoff and punt returner and fourth-leading receiver (5 catches, 89 yards). The 5-foot-8, 170-pound sophomore from Ft. Lauderdale tied a school record with three kick returns for touchdowns in 2014. Georgia players had managed to avoid trouble with the law since last season. That’s after UGA players had at least six arrests in 2014. From the AJC Monk |

Their last game they held Louisville to 19 yards on 28 carries. They rank # 17 in the nation only allowing 2.92 yards per carry.

Quote HistoryQuote HistoryATHENS, Ga. -- The woman who accused Georgia wide receiver/kick returner Isaiah McKenzie of threatening to kill her at an Athens restaurant on Monday night has informed Athens-Clarke County police that she doesn't want to pursue criminal charges against him.
Athens-Clarke County Police spokeswoman Hilda Sorrow said police closed the case on Wednesday. "The victim decided not to prosecute, so as far as we're concerned, the case is closed," Sorrow told ESPN.com. Glad that is done, for now anyway. Monk |

but FSU players are almost always guilty or at least that's what ESPN says.
Fortunately for Georgia this case didn't involve "hot button" issues that most of the FSU cases did, such as a sexual assault and violence against women. That along with the no arrest being made on scene and the very short time between first reports and the announcement of no charges within 24 hours helped tamp down the drama. Most importantly this case did NOT involve Keystone beer. Who would steal Keystone beer, a TCU player that's who

Wouldn't touch it with a 10' pole. And while recruiting is important I would hesitate to put too much weight behind it on how a team is currently performing. Look at Michigan St, TCU, Baylor and Utah who historically don't have highly ranked recruiting classes. Then look at Texas, Oregon and Auburn on the other end of the spectrum who have recruited quite well the last 5 years and are struggling. |

Weather guys are predicting a 70%+ chance of rain for Bama @ Georgia this Saturday. That may hurt Georgia's passing game. Monk That's a pretty big factor Georgia has a decided advantage in the passing game. Is GOD a Bama fan?

Given Bama's defensive backfield troubles, the wet field may favor Georgia's receiving corps. Receivers know where they are going but DBs have to react the movements and routes of their receivers. Crappy field slows down that reaction time and make it's hard to cover receivers. Action > reaction Hopefully it's just rain and not windy. Monk |

The last I heard was that Bovada had pulled the BU/TT line, but the O/U was the highest in history which is hilarious (90+ IIRC)...who knows if Mahomes is playing but I'd bet he is. I hope he is. We can't beat him, we can't beat Boykin.

I will be completely irrational by 3:30 PM on game day. My go to response of "Fuck You Asshole, Get out of my face is not appropriate for my spouse or children. I pray that I remember not to tell my wife, a Tide fan, to go fuck herself in the heat of the game. Now if my step son, also a Tide fan, gets mouthy during the game I will tell him to get the hell out of my house and get him self an apartment. Fucking College boy.

We can't beat him, we can't beat Boykin. Yeah, It's not even listed on the board. Bovada also shuts down lines all the time. They are a pain in the ass for betting college football. They open lines late killing the opportunitity to get value. They restrict betting limits on virtually every game and don't even offer some games like Michigan / Maryland this week. They also jack the vig. They have SC / Missouri, Louisville / NC St, Idaho / Ark St all locked right now along with a lot of games unlisted. They suck as a book for college football. Either get in the game as a real book or GTFO. Fuck Bovada. There, I feel better.

Monk Dam, I would pay good money to be able to bring some beer over and watch that game with your family.

Monk Saw it mentioned (and it makes sense) that rain actually hurts the defense and helps offenses as they know where they're going as opposed to defender's having to make quick adjustments on the ball when everything is wet and slick. Now with that said, the offense/playcalling has to be solid and they have to execute but they should have an advantage over a fast aggressive defense. |

Good story of players for a change.
These football players scored a touchdown without setting foot on the field.
Four members of the William Paterson University football team in New Jersey each scored $50 gift cards after surveillance cameras captured them at a Wayne store paying for batteries and sunglasses, even though no employees were around. |

Forecast in Athens on Saturday is currently a 100% chance of heavy rain. If the game is even played, we could be in for one hell of an old fashioned run fest.
