During his Sunday teleconference, Georgia coach Mark Richt announced that Saturday's game with Alabama will be a "blackout."

ESPN's College GameDay crew will also be making the trip to Athens for the 7:45 p.m. kickoff.

"The seniors asked me if we could black out the game and since it's not a day game where heat could be a factor we're going to ask our fans to black out the stadium again
our players will be wearing the black jerseys," Richt said.

To Bamafan:
If you're a Bama fan, you shouldn't be reading the Red & Black GEORGIA newspaper.

Since Bama's colors are crimson and white, it's the perfect game for a blackout! Let's show the players our support, as well as the folks watching on tv, that the Bulldog nation is a force with which to be reckoned. (Continued…)

Start digging your own grave then Dave. But in all seriousness, this is going to be a very hard fought game for both teams. Let's just hope for a good game with no major injuries. (Continued…)
