The 2002 Georgia football season was memorable for many reasons. High on that list are the SEC title, a return to Bourbon Street on New Year’s, and 47X Takeoff.
Yes, Georgia has had more successful seasons than that year was, but it’ll always be special if you were on campus then. And few weeks rattled Athens into a frenzy than Pat Dye’s famous “Man Enough” speech.
Georgia proved that it was, going on that week to win at Alabama.
The Crimson Tide may be giving the Dawgs Man Enough, Part II. And this time it’s not from a former Georgia player turned Auburn coach. No, it’s from the quarterback of the Crimson Tide.

Georgia head coach Kirby Smart does not need much help to find ways to motivate his team. A game of Saturday’s magnitude speaks for itself. But having an off week to prep for a team whose player alleges that you quit? Get ready to pull those belts tight, folks.
The Red & Black has a nice rundown of Kirby Smart’s comments on Alabama, and also how this week fits into the big picture of the season.
The gang from the top of Baxter Hill also has a wrap up of all the Dawgs in the NFL.
Meanwhile, here’s what Bama’s coaches…in coachspeak anyway, had to say about Georgia’s playmakers.
It’s been 17 years. Do we know what Britney is doing with her life?
Go Dawgs!
