It’s just 7 short days until the cowboys of Oklahoma invade Athens town.
I’ve been excited about this game for so many reasons, but mainly because this will be a high quality, non-conference opener for the Dawgs. No cupcakes this year.
When we win (notice I said When not If ) even if it’s by a hair, it will surely lend some much needed legitimacy to this young team. I’m just not worried about this game like so many pundits seem to be. Seriously, if I see one more upset prediction by so-called experts I’m gonna lose my mind! Here’s why:
- OK State is 3-10 in their last 13 road games losing by an average 19 ppg.
- Georgia is 25-2 against non-conference opponents under CMR. The 2 lossses came in bowl games (BC & WV).
- Georgia is 6-0 in opening games under CMR and we’ve won the last 10 open games straight.
You can thank Phil Steele for those little tidbits. I’m good, but not that good.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not naive enough to suggest this is gonna be a cake-walk like Boise St. turned out to be, but I don’t think we’re gonna get humiliated at home either.
<<insert tired vandy joke here>>
So I’m gonna put my money where my mouth is…. UGA 38 OKSU 31
Believe it. Care to make a wager?
I’ll be consumed by the game for sure but, I have to say, what I’m also interested in witnessing are the OK State fans. To say they are colorful is an understatement apparently. This kind of saddens me actually, because I’ve always had a thing for real cowboys.
Got to love the Lord for making things like this.
Seeing a man riding a horse, wearing boots, chaps, tight jeans, a cowboy hat, and a monstrous belt buckle used to do something for me. “Used to” being the operative words here.
This OK State “cowboy, boy” has definitely cooled my fascination for good…
(h/t pwd)
Good Lord, that’s worse than Rocky Top. I do hope their fans have a great time in the classic city, but hope like hell no one in a ginormous, 50-gallon, hideous orange, foam cowboy hat sits in front of me 
Before I forget…sorry, but I won’t be making an appearance at the KA reunion lake bash, but hope to see some of y’all at the game. If I don’t, then have a great time without me and I will definitley see y’all at the SCUm game on the 8th. Remember, I’ll be down in the RV lot (off college station) tailgating with the family and this guy.
Go Dawgs!
PS – you need to check out Kit’s blog for his upcoming best five home games & “the list” posts. Before you ask, I’m not privy to insider information concerning the meaning of “the list” but I know from experience it will be great. Trust me.

Good God – that ws awful! I couldn’t make it through the whole thing. Where the hell did you find that freak?
While I like your predicition, I don’t think the score will get that high. This is more ilke it: THe Dawgs 27 OK State 24. But hell, if we can get to 30 first we win.
O hasn’t stopped talking about you coming to see her swim yesterday. I take that back – she can’t stop talking about texting “ally’s boyfriend.” Thanks for that, btw, now she wants her own phone. Andrea and I told her you’d get her one for Christmas!
I just threw up a little in my mouth…Bill wouldn’t stop laughing about this last night so I had to get up & see it for myself. I can’t believe I actually watched the whole thing.
The frightening part is, James was dancing next to me while this fool sang. He loved it & wants to play it again!!! Don’t worry, he’ll be in bulldawg detox for the rest of the day
I’ve ZTA news for you – call me.
I agree that we’re gonna win it (nice steele stats by the way) but I think you’re too high on the score. The final will be more along the lines of UGA 24 OKSU 21. I think our D will be ready and yes I do care to make a wager. How’s $100 or your parking pass grab ‘ya?
I see you heard we’ll be tailgating in the lower RV lot this year. Sux – that rank smell from “poop on the loop” is gonna ruin my appetite!
Nice to know we’re finally gonna get to meet the legend of the Dawg blogs. You warn him about dad yet? lol!
damn girl, take down that gay pic of the chippendale reject! And I’m not talking about the fat ass from oklahoma.
like your prediction – bold move, but too high. My cash is on Rob’s score. Personally I think our O holds, but have a sick feeling that our D fails us & puts MS in a bad position all day. Cotou’s gonna be the mvp, you watch.
sorry you won’t be at the lake, but I’m not shocked & understand. SW’s asked about you & feels pretty bad for what it’s worth.
I’ll call ‘ya on Sat morning; hope to stop by & see the family eskew. lookin’ forward to being introduced to “the legend” as well. Real happy for ‘ya girl!
[...] my predicted score was a little off, but the outcome was right on… Dawgs Win 35-14!!! And honestly, they were [...]
hey cowboys are ????
