UGA's unrealistic expectations

I'm trying to decide what is worse, Mark Davenport's performance on Palestra.net or Georgia's future with Joe Cox as the replacement to Matthew Stafford. At least expectations are realistic. UGA just wants another championship. When was that last one?

Bowl Prevew: Capital One Bowl

Capital One Bowl
Citrus Bowl, Orlando
Michigan State vs. Georgia
Date: Jan. 1
Time: 1 p.m.
TV: ABC
Line: Georgia –7.5

About Michigan State: The Spartans are always so cute. They play hard against good teams and think they’re relevant. Hey, that Javon Ringer is something. The rest of the team? Uh, that Javon Ringer sure is somethin’!

Intangibles:
Bobby Williams not coaching: +5
John L. Smith not coaching: +3
Blake Ezor: +2
T.J. Duckett to beat UM with no time on clock: hahahaha +4

About Georgia: After whipping up on a hilariously-poor Hawaii team in last year’s Sugar Bowl, the ‘Dawgs entered 2008 ranked No. 1. They proceeded to prove exactly how misguided that notion was by getting hammered at home by Bama and giving up 900 rushing yards to Georgia Tech to finish the season. Congrats on your national title, UGA!

Intangibles:
Savannah; +4
Rest of Georgia: -3
REM before 1995: +3
REM after 1995: -6

Impact Player: UGA quarterback Matthew Stafford will probably be the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft if he comes out, just based on talent. Based on production and consistency he might be the first pick of the Arena League. Kid’s gotta gun, but if he’s scattershot, the Spartans have a chance.

Bowl slogan: “Steve Spurrier would kill to get to this bowl game now.”

Little known fact: MSU quarterback Brian Hoyer is even more inconsistent than Stafford.

Watchability (1-5): 4

The Pick: Georgia 31, Michigan State 27
