Mark Richt's Meltdown; is it a sign of deeper problems for him at Georgia?

Georgia Football Coach Mark Richt is having a difficult time accepting his team's 38-35 loss to South Carolina, Saturday.

He's gone to the SEC to get a “clarification” of a holding call that brought back a 54-yard TD run by Ga. RB Todd Gurley.

Even more absurd, Richt is questioning the intentional grounding call against his QB late in the game, after a Gamecock turnover gave the Bulldogs a chance to tie or go ahead.

Failing to score, after a missed FG, is likely what is eating at Richt. South Carolina had literally given him a chance to win the game, after his team had gotten outplayed for more than three quarters.

Richt should have sent the officials a fruit basket after the game, for not ejecting RB Todd Gurley in the first half. Gurley, Richt's star and only hope, punched two Gamecock players, but the penalty was called on the Gamecocks, extending a Bulldog drive.

But could Richt's complaining be the sign of a deeper fear for him?

Maybe Richt knows that if he fails to bring home some big hardware, like an SEC Championship this year, the fans will finally get their way.

Maybe if Richt sputters, and does not win the SEC-East, he will be replaced.

In the past South Carolina has lost and let Georgia back into the SEC-East Championship.

Maybe Richt knows his luck is running out, and one more year of underachievement will end his stint at Georgia.

If so, that may explain his ridiculous behavior over another beating at the hands of the Head Ball Coach.  That is enough to drive any coach crazy.
