Dub's Playlist

Corey Smith is on Dub's playlist this week, and for good reason! Y'all know that I'm a lifelong Georgia Bulldogs fan. And just in case you've been living under a rock, you know that college football is back this weekend! So it felt appropriate to feature this particular song this week.

While the Georgia Bulldogs have won back-to-back College Football National Championships, things weren't always so sweet in Athens. There were several years when we just couldn't beat Florida. I'm sure y'all remember when Georgia couldn't even think about beating Alabama. Heck there were years when we were happy with 8 wins.

Remember the years that Grayson Lambert and Joe Cox were Georgia's quarterbacks? Remember when we were just happy to be in a bowl game? Those years where we were just one win shy of the SEC championship? I remember them well, and I think thats what makes back to back natty wins that much sweeter.

Corey Smith is from Athens, and he's a huge Georgia fan as well. I remember hearing this song for the first time in the late 2000s and it spoke to my soul. There weren't a lot of songs about the Dawgs, so when I found a good one, I hung on to it. Every time I've seen Corey here in the CSRA over the years, he sings this song. And every time, I sing along, loudly!

Speaking of football, I love a good football movie, and these are my favorites!

The Top Football Movies According To Dub.

Football movies are some of my favorites. College football season started this past weekend, and the NFL is back tomorrow. Sometimes football movies help me get through until the season starts. A good football movie is one I can watch over and over and still get excited about. This is a list of my favorite football movies. Are there any you think I missed? These are in no particular order, just my favorites.

Any Given Sunday

This is a great football movie. It has a ton of action, and Al Pacino gives a game speech in it that makes me want to run through a wall every time I hear it!

Friday Night Lights

There is nothing like high school football in Texas! I never get tired of this movie, plus it features Tim McGraw's acting debut.

Rudy

If you're making a list of football movies, and "Rudy" isn't on it, your list is not complete!

The Blind Side

Another one that never gets old. In my opinion this is one of Sandra Bullock's best movies. I love all of the cameos by the college football coaches too.

Remember The Titans

If you asked me what my all time favorite football movie is, this is the one. "Remember The Titans" will never ever get old.
