Twitter reacts to Georgia getting upset at home by Vanderbilt
By John Buhler
The Georgia Bulldogs were upset at home by the Vanderbilt Commodores, 17-16. Dawg Nation hated every bit of it. This is how Georgia fans reacted on Twitter.
While neither team was ranked, the Vanderbilt Commodores were able to go into Athens and upset their SEC East rival in the Georgia Bulldogs on Saturday afternoon, 17-16. This was Vanderbilt head coach Derek Mason’s first road win as a head coach.
The Georgia faithful is not handling this well. Twitter is going insane after Georgia’s awful loss at home to Vanderbilt. This was the Bulldogs’ homecoming game and many are questioning why athletic director Greg McGarity fired longtime head coach Mark Richt. This is the first bad loss of the Kirby Smart era in Athens.

I don't know where Mark Richt is right now, but I bet he's smiling.

Mark Richt was 13-2 vs. Vanderbilt; Kirby Smart is 0-1

You fired Mark Richt and you got this...but hey. At least Kirby is an alum.

If I were UGA fan I'd be questioning Kirby Smart's sanity in calling a running play anywhere near Zack Cunningham on 4th down for game!

Apparently Kirby Smart just can't beat teams from the state of Tennessee as a head coach

Kirby Smart just became an old married man in Athens. Honeymoon is #over

I thought Kirby Smart might have a rough debut this season. ... Not this rough.

In time, we will learn how good a head coach Kirby Smart is, but anyone who follows the SEC knows Jim Chaney doesn't cut it as an OC.

It's ok Kirby, you can come back home! #RollTide

In short, the world hates the 4th and 1 play caller to run the ball anywhere near Vanderbilt Zach Cunningham. Georgia’s return game was absolutely rancid. Smart is no longer going to get the benefit of the doubt this season. Georgia is playing for playing for pride this year. Are we sure this is a bowl team?

Vanderbilt has a great defense for Mason, so props to the Commodores. How does Georgia lose at home with Jacob Eason at quarterback to Vanderbilt. Jim Chaney’s game plan on offense was worth than anything Mike Bobo ever did in Athens. Panic is in the air the Classic City.
