GEORGIA HOLDS FINAL SCRIMMAGE OF FALL CAMP

By Dan Harralson

Mark Richt surprised his Georgia team when they took the field yesterday. The scoreboard read Oklahoma State 21, Georgia 0. “I wanted a little sense of urgency for both sides of the ball,” Richt said in explaining his decision to spot the “Oklahoma State” scout team the three-touchdown lead. “I’d say overall my feeling was we’re not quite ready to beat Oklahoma State today,” Richt said. “It’s a good thing we’ve got 10 more days to prepare.” The Georgia starters rallied to beat the "Oklahoma State" scout team, 27-24. The Oklahoma State Cowboys are entering the 2009 season in the pre-season top ten, a first for their football program. Quarterback ,Joe Cox, connected with sophomore standout A.J. Green for a 40-yard touchdown. “We’re not playing Oklahoma State, so I really don’t know what to take from it,” Cox said. “We got some good looks from the scout team. We did some good things. We ended up coming back and beating them, but it was just another scrimmage. It was just a lot more structured today.” “I thought Joe was sharp running the system,” Richt said. “I thought he was accurate throwing the ball.” The number one tailback on the depth chart, Caleb King, was held out of yesterday's scrimmage due to a hamstring injury.
