  • I hope the Dawgs do better this week than they did last week.That was hard to watch.Hopefully we will take the pain from last week and tear up the cocks.I'm Spurrier will retire soon i,just cant stand him or any team he has anything to do with.

  • We need to play inspired football. This is a huge day for them and all of bulldog nation.

  • Bottom line- Stop the penalties. ENOUGH ALREADY! Use Malcom Mitchell more! Welcome back Thomas!! Time to live up to the hype Aaron and if the 3-4 is not working on D, MAKE THE ADJUSTMENT! Go Dawgs!!! Step Up!
