He also handled the play-by-play for the Atlanta Falcons radio broadcasts and has also hosted sports-related talk shows in the past.

Famous Calls
Some of Munson’s well known calls include:

“Buck back. Third down on the 8. In trouble. Got a block behind him. Going to throw on the run. Complete to the 25, to the 30. Lindsay Scott 35, 40. Lindsay Scott 45, 50, 45, 40. Run Lindsay! Twenty-five, 20, 15, 10, 5. Lindsay Scott! Lindsay Scott! Lindsay Scott! Well, I don’t believe it. 92 yards and Lindsay really got in a footrace, I broke my chair, I came right through a chair, a metal STEEL chair…Do you know what is gonna happen here tonight? And up at St. Simons, Jekyll Island, and all those places, where all those Dawg people have got those condominiums for four days…MAN, is there gonna be some property destroyed tonight!” – calling wide receiver Lindsay Scott’s 92-yard touchdown reception from quarterback Buck Belue against Florida in 1980
“Hunker down, you guys! If you didn’t hear me, you guys, hunker down!…I know I’m asking a lot, you guys, but hunker it down one more time!” – in a defensive series late in the game against Auburn in 1982, which clinched the SEC title for Georgia
“We hand it off to Herschel, there’s a hole….5….10…12, he’s running over people! Oh, you Herschel Walker!…My God Almighty, he ran right through two men! Herschel ran right over two men! They had him dead away inside the 9. Herschel Walker went 16 yards. He drove right over those orange shirts and is just driving and running with those big thighs. My God, a freshman!” – calling Herschel Walker’s first touchdown run against the Tennessee Volunteers in 1980.
“Look at the sugar falling out of the sky!” – at the end of the Auburn game in 1982.
“So we’ll try to kick one a hundred thousand miles. We’re holding it on our own 49-and-a-half … gonna try to kick it sixty yards plus a foot-and-a-half … and Butler kicked a long one … a long one … Oh my God! Oh my God! … The stadium is worse than bonkers! I can’t believe what he did! This is ungodly!” – calling Kevin Butler’s field goal in the final seconds to win over Clemson in 1984.
“We just stepped on their face with a hob-nailed boot and broke their nose! We just crushed their face!” – calling Georgia’s last-second win over Tennessee in 2001
“Man, we’ve had some shots, haven’t we? Snap to David Greene, there he goes again in the corner and we jump up….Touchdown! Oh, God, a touchdown! With 85 seconds…” – calling David Greene’s touchdown pass to Michael Johnson as Georgia defeated Auburn in 2002, clinching the Bulldogs’ first-ever SEC Eastern Division championship

Georgia Bulldogs 2008 College Football Team Preview

Georgia is coming off an 11-2 season capped by a huge 41-10 win over Hawaii in the Sugar Bowl. The team returns eight starters on offense and seven starters on defense. Head coach Mark Richt owns the fourth-best winning percentage (.791) among active coaches.

Junior Matthew Stafford returns at quarterback for the Bulldogs. Stafford’s numbers (4,272 yards, 26 touchdowns, 23 interceptions, 54.5% completions in two seasons) do not accurately reflect the amount of talent this kid possesses. The coaches spent the offseason working with Stafford on fundamentals.

Tailback Knowshon Moreno returns for his sophomore season. Moreno rushed for 1,334 yards last season, which stands as the second-best total by a freshman in school history. Moreno was also the second-leading rusher in the SEC.

The uncertainty on offense lies with an offensive line that will have new starters at four of the five positions. Four of the five starters will likely be sophomores. There are sure to be some growing pains with this young unit. Luckily for Georgia, they have a lot of talent at other positions that should keep this offense chugging along until this unit can jell.

The Bulldogs are extremely deep along the defensive line. Georgia has the capability to consistently rotate five tackles and six ends. Junior defensive tackle Geno Atkins is the cream of this crop. Georgia also has high aspirations for redshirt freshman Justin Houston, a converted linebacker.

The Bulldogs devoted much of the spring to working on their nickel package. The Georgia nickel package does not use a strong-side linebacker, so only linebackers Dannell Ellerbe (middle) and Rennie Curran (weak-side) see significant playing time.

The secondary is solid and returns three of four starters, including corners Asher Allen and Prince Miller, and strong safety C.J. Byrd. Sophomore Reshad Jones appears to be the new starter at free safety.

Freshman Blair Walsh appears to be the odds-on favorite to win the kicking job and senior Brian Mims is a solid punter who should have that job secured.

The 2008 Georgia Bulldogs have no shortage of talent. They’ll likely go as far as Stafford and Moreno can take them. Georgia also has depth, especially on what could be a dominant defensive line. This team will be extremely tough if the offensive line comes together quickly and plays effectively.

But the Bulldogs have a very tough schedule. They have road games against Arizona State, LSU, Auburn and Florida (in Jacksonville). They also have a tough home game against Tennessee, who beat Georgia 35-14 last season. The only upside to having a schedule this tough is Georgia could lose a game (or possibly two) and still find themselves in the BCS National Championship game.

Georgia Bulldogs College Football 2008- the Updates

After losing starting left tackle Trinton Sturdivant for the season because of his severe knee injury, Georgia is rebuilding its offensive line. Sturdivant who started 13 games as a freshman last season has suffered multiple ligament injuries to his left knee in a scrimmage. As per Ron Courson, Georgia’s director of sports medicine, Sturdivant might need a full year of rehab after he undergoes reconstructive surgery.

Though Georgia bulldogs are experiencing problems because of the injury of Sturdivant, the 2008 Georgia Bulldogs team have no shortage of talent. They’ll likely go as far as Stafford and Moreno can take them. Georgia also has depth, especially on what could be a dominant defensive line. Tailback Knowshon Moreno returns for the 2008 season. The second-best total by a freshman in school history is owned by Moreno. The uncertainty on offense lies with an offensive line that will have new starters at four of the five positions. Four of the five starters will likely be sophomores. There are sure to be some growing pains with this young unit. Luckily for Georgia, they have a lot of talent at other positions that should keep this offense chugging along until this unit can jell. The Bulldogs are extremely deep along the defensive line. Georgia has the capability to consistently rotate five tackles and six ends. Junior defensive tackle Geno Atkins is the cream of this crop. Georgia also has high aspirations for redshirt freshman Justin Houston, a converted linebacker.

Most observers are counting offensive line as a strength for the Bulldogs in 2008 and they definitely have accrued a lot of young talent up front. Three freshmen held down starting spots last season and rookies also held down the majority of backup positions. However, the Bulldogs have a very tough schedule. They have road games against Arizona State, LSU, Auburn and Florida (in Jacksonville). They also have a tough home game against Tennessee, who beat Georgia 35-14 last season. The only upside to having a schedule this tough is Georgia could lose a game (or possibly two) and still find themselves in the BCS National Championship game.
