[QUOTE="vamosjackets, post: 234921, member: 216"] I think your observations are on point, and I think the questions you ask and their expected answer tell the story. I do believe it is part psychological and part coaching. It's psychological when you see all the close games we had in the CCG and CPJ eras and how we're one play away from a win. But, it's also coaching when you see UGA's record over those years compared with Clemson's. 2009 is a perfect example. It's coaching, psychological, luck, and refs. We're going against Willie Martinez - probably their worst DC in the last 20 years - so advantage us. But, they're going against Dave Wommack - our worst DC in 20 years. Don't give up record numbers in rushing (make their worst QB in 20 years beat us) and we win the game. Refs allow UGA players to continue to torque Josh Nesbitt's body way after he's down with zero consequences. So, we lose our starting QB for a quarter or two. That doesn't happen, we win the game. We still have a chance to win though. And, CPJ, a normally great play caller calls 3 or 4 passes in a row to end the game when we're in their territory. STILL, if Stephen Hill runs the correct route (the Brad Stewart vs FSU route, btw) and it's likely a TD, and CPJ looks like a genius. STILL, Bay Bay is wide open, gets a ball thrown right to his hands, and drops the ball on our last play. Psychological without question. [/QUOTE]
