No. 6: Georgia
By Paul Myerberg // Aug 28, 2012

If football games were 15 minutes long, Georgia would have been the best team in the country. If football games were 30 minutes long, Georgia would have worn the SEC crown for the first time since 2005. The Bulldogs allowed only 27 points in the first quarter all season: Boise State, Florida and Auburn scored one touchdown apiece; Mississippi State and Kentucky added a field goal; and the rest, the other nine teams, were held scoreless. In the first half of games, Georgia outscored its 14 opponents by a score of 275-111. Against Auburn on Nov. 12, the Bulldogs put together the program’s most dominating first half of SEC play since… when? But it was a different story in the second half, with this fact illustrated no better than in the two biggest games of Georgia’s season. In the opener, Boise State left Georgia in the dust with back-to-back touchdowns to open the second half. In the SEC title game, Georgia’s 10-0 second-quarter lead was followed by 42 unanswered L.S.U. points, 35 of which came over the game’s final 30 minutes. Georgia has already proved it can play with anyone for 30 minutes. But to be the best in the SEC, the Bulldogs need to round into 60-minute form.

Georgia Suspends Rambo and Ogletree
By Paul Myerberg // Mar 28, 2012
As reported late this evening by DawgPost.com, Georgia will suspend free safety Bacarri Rambo and inside linebacker Alec Ogletree for at least two games, and as many as four games, for a violation of team rules. That duo joins another pair of would-be starting defenders, cornerbacks Sanders Commings and Branden Smith, who have either already been suspended or face a future suspension for offseason arrests. Commings, who was arrested in January on charges of domestic violence, will miss the first two games of the season. Smith has yet to have his suspension formalized after he was arrested on misdemeanor drug possession charges earlier this month.
