Athens ? Mark Richt quashed a rumor that Georgia was going to dress in all-black uniforms Saturday. He played coy, however, with beat reporters when the discussion went to red.
?A blackout? No, man, no,? Richt said.
Richt was then asked if the Bulldogs were going to wear their traditional red jerseys.
?Do you really want to know? Don?t you just want to wait and see? Do you really want me to answer that question? You want me to straight up answer that question??
?Yes,? the reporters said in unison.
?We?re wearing red.?
Richt clammed up when asked if that meant red pants, too.
?We?re going to wear red,? he said with a laugh. ?Put that in the celebration category.?
Richt has declined to discuss last year?s end zone celebration.
Track meet?
Saturday?s matchup features the SEC?s two most prolific offenses, led by quarterbacks of Georgia and of Florida, and a bevy of skill players.
For that reason, prognosticators are expecting a high-scoring track meet.
The over/under Friday was locked at 56.5 points. Most money was going on the over.
Richt said you can never be sure.
?I don?t know what?s going to happen,? he said. ?If you took both of our offenses? averages, it?d be somewhere in the 70s [76.2]. But if you went by the defenses, points allowed, it could be in the 30s [32.1]. All I know is anything can happen in a game like this.?
