Well Georgia fans, it seems as if the Vols have gone absolutely bonkers. What other explanation could there be for Arian Foster?
The Vols' tailback, who is very close to the top of the all-time rushing list at Tennessee, apparently will only conduct interviews this week if performed in "pterodactyl," a fictitious dinosaur langauge.
I'll all you a few moments to digest that.....
Ok, welcome back. Apparently, a reporter asked him to comment on UT's Saturday game at No. 10 Georgia. Naturally, Foster responded by saying "Veeeeeeek! Veeeeeeeeek! Veeeeeeek!" Apparently, that's pterodactyl for "Nick Stephens is our quarterback, how do you think I feel about the game?"
The Vols are in for a long day at the office if their best offensive player is living in Jurassic Park. Alabama played the part of the giant storm that cut power to the electric fences in the movie. Georgia is the angry T-Rex that's looking to kill something now that it's free. Tennessee seems well-suited to play the guy that gets ripped apart while hiding in the bathroom.
Of course, this scenario is contingent on Georgia having enough healthy players to field a team. Most beat reporters have described the Georia practice field as a vast expanse of green, as in non-contact jerseys. Dannell Ellerbe is likely out and Marcus Dowtin has been hindered this week as well. Combine their injuries with Charles White and Marcus Washington's season-enders over the summer, and the Dawgs have just enough linebackers to take the field in a 4-4 defensive scheme.
Still, Georgia should have sufficient defensive firepower to make the inept Vols wishing for a giant meteor to end their misery. Seriously, two UT linemen were suspended for the game, including one who has played in every game this year. Their starting quarterback has been benched for a red-head. David Cutcliffe has more wins at Duke than the Vols do. And Arian Foster thinks he's a giant flying reptile. Fat Phil needs a drink.
PS...make sure to scroll down and check out Bill's analysis of the Braves. I am an idiot and posted today after he already did.

i thought everyone taught themselves pterodactyl in elementary school?
hmm...looks like me and my imaginary friend jimmy weren't the only ones
p.s. veeeek veeek veeeek is just a formal greeting if only reporters would take the time and translate
Fulmer will have his boys ready to play. He gave them "my job is o nthe line" speech before last seasons game, and hell give them a similar speech this year. Tenn loves coming into our house and beating us, and frankly if you're playing Richt and his Dawgs, getting them at home is the way to go. I'm worried about this game, and will continue to be until kick off (or the jack daniels in my body makes me forget to be worried)
tennessee lost to ucla (one of the worst teams in the pac-10), auburn (only scored 12 points?) and got killed by UF. Then, they almost lose to a middle of the pack MAC team. If georgia doesn't win by at least 14, they don't deserve to play in the SEC
