...was anyone else thinking that you almost would've rather had the safety instead of the TD?  You get the 2 points and the ball back in good field position, and the way we were moving the ball at that point, I feel pretty certain that we would've burned the clock and at least gotten a game winning FG, thus avoiding all the late game drama.  I really didn't want to give UGA the ball back at that point.  But we did, and it worked out.

I would have rather us on our last series before the hail mary to have by gosh moved the ball instead of going 3 bad plays and punt. One 1st down and the game is over and UGA doesn't get the chance to do what they did. It bit us in the butt against OU and FL last year....and without a wing and prayer it almost got us beat yesterday.

Yeah, that would have been preferable. If this wasn't a rivalry before I think after yesterday it is.

But then we would not have been able to stick Josh Dobb's arm right down their throats to find Jauan Jones already waiting, uga heart in hand, just waiting to rip it out.  Hobnail that.

I liked getting the TD, but I had expected Shoop and the D to prevent the Dawgs from moving down the field. I saw on ESPN that once Ga scored the last TD we had like a .0023% chance of winning....it truly was a miracle.

0.23%...but both very unlikely
