Let's face it: This hasn't exactly been a bumper rookie crop of fantasy performers.

Georgia punter Drew Butler was named Thursday to the American Football Coaches Association Coaches' All-America Team.

It's a popular question in this part of the country before the start of college football season: Which Southeastern Conference coach is on the hot seat? Usually there's an obvious candidate, but there wasn't at the start of this season.

None of the four brought pizzazz. Georgia was the closest thing to a team with preseason expectations and the Bulldogs were trying to replace Matthew Stafford and Knowshon Moreno.

Mark Richt's worst season as Georgia's coach may not have hit bottom. Richt's 6-5 Bulldogs are underdogs for Saturday's game at No.

From his seat high above the field in Georgia's radio booth, Eric Zeier experiences some level of deja vu while watching this season's Bulldogs play.

The first caller to Mark Richt's weekly radio show, someone identified as "Fred in Savannah," sternly lectured the coach on the failures of Georgia's defense and implored him to hire a new coordinator.

Two years ago, Georgia coach Mark Richt was a genius, the toast of the SEC. He ordered his players - all of the them - to rush the field and draw a celebration penalty after scoring their first touchdown against rival Florida, and the inspired Bulldogs rolled to 42-30 victory.

Tailback Knowshon Moreno has had a solid start to his rookie season, but he still has a lot to learn and has yet to make any home-run plays.
