Two Game Points

Rick Brooks accurately states that there's a great deal on the line for both Georgia and UK today.  The Wildcats and Dawgs share 6-4 records and both are trying to position themselves in the bowl pecking order.  Both teams are also trying to finish second in the SEC East, a rare result for the Cats.  The Dawgs need this game.  The potent bitterness of this season will quickly resurface with a loss, even though the Auburn game has taken the edge off the disappointment.  Despite Paul's confidence, I think if we lose today and against Tech, Shreveport is still on the table.  Win it and the Dawgs still have Tampa and Atlanta within reach.

Randall Cobb, the scatback/wideout/quarterback who sliced our defense up last year, has an injured shoulder and will be a game time decision.  I'd wager he plays.  Cobb is playing a little QB for the Cats because Mike Hartline, a more standard quarterback, is out after knee surgery.  When Cobb isn't under center running the "wild Cobb", true freshman Morgan Newton is expected to take conventional snaps.  (Can we stop calling every direct snap play a "wild" something? Is a quarterback draw that wild?  It's a little leauge play: get your best player the ball and let them outrun all the other kids.)
