WHITE SOX 2 | A’S 1 Georgia is No. 1 in Just out of reach preseason AP poll By RALPH D. RUSSO Associated Press NEW YORK — By the time Georgia was done demolishing Hawaii in the Sugar Bowl, it was apparent the Bulldogs were well on their way to being No. 1 — to start the 2008 college football season. Seeking its first national championship in 28 years, Georgia is on top of The Associated Press preseason Top 25 for the first time. The Bulldogs received 22 first-place votes and 1,528 points from a panel of 65 media members in the poll released Saturday. “To have people believing we have one of the best teams in the nation going into this thing, it’s exciting for us,” Bulldogs coach Mark Richt said in a telephone interview with the AP. “I don’t think anything is guaranteed, but we certainly have put ourselves in position where at least the college football world thinks we’re pretty good.” Ohio State, coming off a second consecutive loss in the national championship game File Photo but returning 20 starters, is A’s infielder Jack Hannahan can’t quite get to a grounder through the infield in a game earlier this season.

That mark could be next for needed to go to the gym more Bolt finally walked barefoot became the first Georgia Bolt, who considers the 200 his specialty. The heats for that event begin Monday, and the final is Wednesday, a day before his 22nd birthday. “It definitely brings track back,” said Walter Dix of the United States, the bronze medalist in 9.91. Back to the front pages. Back from being ignored, spurned even, after a series of drug cases that stripped medals and credibility. It’s all particularly remark- able when you consider that Bolt — from the same yam- farming Trelawny parish in his Caribbean nation that was home to Ben Johnson — only began competing in the dash 13 months ago. “I told you all I was going to be No. 1,” Bolt said, “and I did just that.” Even though his left shoelace was dangling, the knot undone. Even though he skidded out of the starting blocks with the seventh-slow- est reaction time in the eight- man final. Even though as recently as this month, Bolt left some doubt as to whether he would even contest the 100 in Beijing, because he didn’t want to disrupt his preparation for the 200. The talk for weeks has been about how Bolt might hold up in the four-round format at the Olympics, and how he’d do squaring off against Powell and reigning world champion Tyson Gay of the United States. That didn’t pan out. Gay, who acknowledged he paid for being sidelined the past 1 1/2 months after injuring his left hamstring at the U.S. Olympic trials, didn’t even make the final, finishing fifth in his semi. Powell, mean- while, was fifth in the final for a second consecutive Olympics, adding to his repu- tation for flopping on the big stage. “Usain was spectacular,” Powell said. “He was definite- ly untouchable tonight. He could have gone a lot faster if he had run straight through the line.” How low might Bolt be able to push that time? 9.65? 9.59? “Anything is possible. The human body is changing, so you never know,” Bolt said. “I aim just to win, but when I saw the replay, I was amazed.” So was everyone else: the competition, if you can really use that term to describe the other runners; the 91,000 or so fans whose photo flashes filled the still night air; the millions watching on TV. Years from now, people will look at the images from the finish of the men’s 100 meters at the 2008 Olympics and ask: Was Usain Bolt given a head start? Was it possible for one man to end up that far ahead of seven other men, seven other elite sprinters, the best the world has to offer? It was, after all, the first Olympic 100 in which six men finished in under 10 sec- onds. One of them, sixth-place finisher Michael Frater of Jamaica, described Bolt’s new record this way: “No one will get near it.” Well, perhaps no one other than Bolt. There were other events on this clear night, other medals awarded. Nataliia Dobrynska of Ukraine won the hep- tathlon, with Hyleas Fountain earning a bronze for the first U.S. medal in that event since 1992. Valerie Vili won the women’s shot put, giving New Zealand its first Olympic gold medal in track and field since 1976. The favorites advanced to Sunday’s semifinals in the women’s 100. Ho-hum.
