Post So it’s official. The Dawgs

Monday December 10, 2001

So it’s official. The Dawgs are headed to the Music City Bowl and were passed over by the Outback and Cotton on a hectic Sunday afternoon of slotting teams into conference lock-ins.

There has been some outcry for a playoff in light of this screw job. While I agree, that wouldn’t change much in Georgia’s case. It will be interesting on a national level if Nebraska beats Miami – Oregon and Colorado are scratching their heads this year much as Washington and Miami were a year ago.

One thing needs to be made clear to Dawg fans – the Music City Bowl and Nashville are not the enemies. They wanted us. Even if you make a day trip of it, Nashville is an easy drive and the game should be full of Dawg fans from at the very least north Georgia. Boston College also is a team capable of playing with the big boys featuring one of the best running backs in the nation, so hopefully the team won’t be in a funk over their bowl fate. As Coach Richt said on Sunday, when you don’t win the conference and guarantee your spot, you’re left to uncertainty and opinion deciding your fate.
