SEC Champs!!!

STUDIO 48 – WE WON!!! SEC Champs, baby! The game has been over for nineteen hours and I’m still giddy like a little kid in FAO Schwartz. To top it all off, our women’s basketball team took care of Tech’s team this afternoon. The athletic association took Le0nard Pope’s website off the internet and we’re going to the BCS (which still eats it as an institution, but I’m happy to be there). What a great weekend for UGA!

I had really bad intuitions about the SEC game all week, but as Sam and I led the RCB through the bowel of the Georgia Dome and through the tunnel and into the stadium, I had a sudden feeling of calmness and peace about the whole thing. The band was loud and raucous even before we entered the stadium. We barked and chanted and acted a fool, but had a great time. We we’re not going to be denied. And not just as a team but as students, as a band, and as a fan base in general. We wanted this one and we were (pardon my redneck) DERN loud for our boys.

The final score was 34-14, but it wasn’t even that close. LSU was out manned, out coached and out classed. We destroyed them from the very beginning. It was amazing! I’m so pumped! I will close with this: Georgia has won two of the last four SEC Championships in football, we have been to the title game three out of four, and we are proving once again that you cannot (hard as you may try) spell sugar without UGA!!!
Goooooooooooooo DAWGS... Sic ‘em!
