It's Friday. Things are getting weird.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Georgia coach Mark Richt doing everything in his power to avoid bulletin board material

At SEC media days yesterday, Richt took the podium to wax poetic about the greatness of Boise State football. Here is a taste of the anti-smack:

As you watch their film, you realize that they are a special football team in the way they approach it. I've probably never seen anybody play any harder than they play as a team down after down, film after film. They are a very confident team.

All they do is win. They don't know anything else. They don't know how to lose, so to speak. 

Richt then tore off his shirt to reveal an elaborate chest tattoo of Coach Pete healing a man with leprosy, according to sources.
