Taking care of business

The business meme has worked all season. Why stop now...
Richt's Bulldogs ascended to the summit of the Southeastern Conference East Division standings Saturday night when South Carolina fell 44-28 at Arkansas. Georgia, which has not controlled its divisional destiny in November since last winning it in 2005, is alone in the East with a 5-1 league mark but faces longtime rival Auburn this week at Sanford Stadium.
"I know we all understand what's at stake and that we are in a better position now and that we do control our destiny," Richt said Sunday afternoon. "We've been fighting like mad from the moment South Carolina beat us, but the thing that has gotten us this far is, on a weekly basis, just trying to take care of business. Our focus has got to be for every man to do his job."
Auburn will be a big road block to Atlanta. I wouldn't mind hearing about some bad feelings breaking out in practice this week.

After last years game I would love to see UGA take out a few emotions on the Barners on their way to Atlanta. The fact that Nick Fairley wasn't punished for his hits on Aaron Murray last year should be enough film room material to amp up the intensity for the Oldest Rivalry. Go Dawgs!
