The 2008-2009 SEC Standings show LSU, Florida, Mississippi State, South Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Mississippi, Auburn, Alabama and Arkansas ahead of the Georgia Bulldogs. It doesn't spell the end of the line but they're not headed to the top at this rate either. But with less than a dozen games left, perhaps the handwriting is already on the wall. February 11, the Bulldogs will take on Tennessee as visitors. On February 14 the Bulldogs take on Florida. February 18 is Auburn then away on February 21 to play against Mississippi followed by a return home to play Vanderbilt on February 25. The final three games in March are to be held on the 1st, 4th and 7th against Arkansas, Kentucky and South Carolina respectively.
Barking out onto the court for the Bulldogs this season are senior Tyler Whatley (0) from Auburn Georgia standing 6'7", freshman Dustin Ware (3) from Powder Springs Georgia at 5'11", sophomore Chris Barnes (4) from Riverdale Georgia at 6'7", sophomore Zac Swansey (5) from Dunwoody Georgia at 6'1", junior Ricky McPhee (10) from Lawrenceville Georgia at 6'1", freshman Matt Bucklin (12) from Marietta Georgia at 6'0", sophomore Troy Brewer (20) from Rockville Maryland at 6'5", freshman Travis Leslie (22) from Decatur Georgia at 6'4", senior Corey Butler (23) from Decatur Georgia at 6'3", freshman Ebuka Anyaorah (25) from Suwanee Georgia at 6'4", senior Terrance Woodbury (30) from Virginia Beach Virginia at 6'7", freshman Howard Thompkins (33) from Lithonia Georgia at 6'8", junior Albert Jackson (34) from Earlington Kentucky at 6'10", freshman Drazen Zlovaric (41) from Novi Sad at 6'9" and sophomore Jeremy Price (50) from Decatur Georgia at 6'8".

Point guard DeMario Mayfield hails from Franklin County High School in Georgia, is 6'3" and signed for the 2009 season. Currently undeclared are Tahj Tate for shooting guard and Marlon Brown for small forward.
The Bulldogs lost their 10th straight game against South Carolina recently. Woodbury, Butler, Jackson, Barnes and Brewer started against the Gamecocks' Zam Frederick, Devan Downey, Dominique Archie, Evaldas Baniulis and Mitchell Carter. The good intentions were present but it wasn't enough to break the losing streak. Woodbury spent 40 minutes in the game, scoring 20 points as the only starter with double digits. From the bench, Swansey and Thompkins scored 13 and 14 points respectively.
This team hasn't seen such a long string of losing games since the season that ended in 1973. Even though the Bulldogs only trailed by four points at half time, they were unable to gain the lead and suffered their tenth loss in a row. Working to keep spirits up are interim head coach Pete herrmann, assistant coach Mike Jones, assistant coach Desmond Oliver, program coordinator Ron Johnson, director of basketball operations Melvin Robinson and behind the scenes administrative associate help from Pam Gauld. The Bulldogs play all home games as the Stegman Coliseum.
University Of Georgia Bulldogs
It was his meeting with Kade Weston, a defensive tackle Red Bank Regional High that changed his life forever. He signed with Georgia and invited his friend to his school. So in spring of '06 Knowshon Moreno took a train south, he never knew that his life would never remain the same. "It was a ride to Georgia, he fell in love with the school straight away and he knew that it was the place for him. Since then there has been no looking back for Moreno.
Georgia had a very disappointing season this time around. After topping the consensus preseason they only managed to finish the regular season 9-3. The Bulldogs will be facing Michigan State in the Capital One Bowl. Moreno is leading the SEC in rushing with 1,395 yards (116.3 per game, which is 13th best in the country) which is makes him only the second player in Georgia history to run for more than 1,000 yards in consecutive seasons, the other player being Herschel Walker. Moreno is a finalist for the Doak Walker Award given to the nation's top running back. Moreno is the third highest in the nation in rushing yards per game behind Iowa's Shonn Green(144.1) and UConn's Donald Brown (153.7).
But a more pertinent and a pondering question doing the rounds in Athens these days is - Will Moreno, a redshirt sophomore, declare for the NFL draft after the Capital One Bowl? Most of the pros think that he is too good and can easily be picked for the top 15 picks. At 5-foot-11, 207 pounds, Moreno possess 4.4 40 speed, the power of a linebacker and is virtually in-tackle-able. He is probably on of the best in the history of Georgia. He has all the qualities to make it to the next level. But if he stays for his junior year, Moreno will finally be behind an experienced offensive line this season the Bulldogs didn't have a regular starter older than a sophomore and he'll be a preseason Heisman frontrunner. But the lure of the NFL is and will be strong.
If he decides to go pro, the fans will surely miss him. They simply love him and respect him for the efforts that he put on the field. He is the best tailback after Walker's '82 Heisman season. Where ever he shows up he is mobbed by fans for autographs, pictures, handshakes or for just a glimpse of their local hero. His No. 24 jersey is one of the best selling apparels at the campus book store. Recently, fans of the Bulldogs launched a website "DontGoDawgs". Through this they are asking him to stay for one more season and play for Georgia.
Not only the fans but Georgia coach also thinks that he is his best student. "He doesn't have a weakness. He'll eventually have a decision to make, but if he comes back it'll be exciting to see what he could do behind a line that has more experience." says Mark Richt.
So definitely he has a very tough decision to make, but considering the game he is playing and the form he is in, it is just a matter of time when he has to take a call on it. Whatever his decision is, we are sure of some great football and more landmarks from this Bulldog.
