Fan talk: Can a true UGA fan ever pull for Tech against anybody?
Ben Jones celebrates Georgia's 2009 win over Tech at Grant Field. (Brant Sanderlin / AJC)
OK, here’s your quickie post-Thanksgiving summation of Georgia vs. Georgia Tech:
In-state rivals. Nation’s No. 2 rushing offense meets No. 2 rushing defense. Uh-oh, triple option. Cut-blocking. Who can play tailback? Which Aaron Murray shows up for this game (the one who tore Auburn apart or the erratic one against Kentucky)? Will the Jackets continue to put it on the ground? What about Harton and Malcome? Will the Dogs be looking ahead to the Dome? Does anyone other than the Tech band still play the Budweiser theme?
Bottom line: If Georgia wins the turnover ratio, Georgia wins the game.
Now, before you tuck into another one of those turkey sandwiches, let’s get to some Junkyard Mail. …
Jackie Grimes writes: I know you’ve made it pretty clear over the years that like most Georgia fans now you can’t stand Georgia Tech. But have you never rooted for the Jackets at any time? Not even against Notre Dame in 1980 when Tech tying the Irish elevated the Dawgs to No. 1?
I have to admit I’ve always relished the irony that the Jackets were responsible for the Dogs first topping the polls in 1980. But, no, I didn’t root for Tech to win that game. I didn’t pull for the Irish to win, either. I was too fixated on what was going on in Jacksonville. But the end result, a tie that helped Georgia, couldn’t have been more perfect. I’ve actually never rooted for the Jackets. I know a lot of Georgia fans of my Dad’s era pulled for the Jackets except when the played the Dogs, but I never could contain the rivalry to just one week. To me, the perfect day is a Georgia win and a Tech loss. Any day. Any sport.
In reply to my list earlier this week of favorite Georgia wins over Tech, Jon from Savannah writes: Thanks for the memories. To this day, I still look for the long ball on the opening play of the game like the one in 1981 to Lindsay Scott. Too sweet of a memory. One of my favorite plays of all time. And Reggie Ball. No Georgia fan can forget him.
Ah, Reggie Ball. The gift to Georgia from Chan Gailey that just kept on giving!
Timothy Hyman wrote to share his favorite Georgia-Georgia Tech memories, which included this: 1997 in Atlanta. I was at the game with my Dad in the Tech section. He went to Tech and worked there. So [we] were in enemy territory. Tech scored to take 24-21 but Bobo led UGA down the field. On fourth down Tech called for pass interference after they thought they had stopped us. Bobo throws touchdown to snatch victory when everyone thought we had lost. [I was] jumping up and down in a sea of gold. The looks on everyone’s faces around us … priceless.
A great day, for sure.
Scott Watson writes: Bill, I believe the team should wear something Saturday on the jersey or helmet to honor Larry Munson. He would hate it, but I think it’s the thing to do. We need to also honor him by totally demolishing Tech. Your thoughts? And Walker Garrett adds: Wouldn’t it be cool if the Dawgs wore jerseys with “Munson” on the back of all them, as a tribute to Larry! [The way the military] academies wear USA, Honor, Bravery, etc. on the back of their jerseys.
I definitely think the Dogs should honor Munson and Mark Richt has indicated that they will, with some sort of decal on the helmets. What it will be, they haven’t said. I’ve heard speculation ranging from Munson’s initials to a cigar to a microphone. But I know what I think would be perfect for the decal: a hobnail boot!
Justin Cade writes: Bill, I’m going to my first game at Tech this Saturday. Assuming you’ve seen the Dawgs at Bobby Dodd before. Are you aware of any decent pregame activities in the area? Are any of the local establishments relatively Dawg-friendly? Thanks for any advice you (or any of the other readers) might have. Go Dawgs!
I don’t really know of any pregame activities. After the 2009 game, I did really enjoy seeing the glum faces on all those Tech fans on the walk back to the MARTA station. As for the most Dawg-friendly place to grab a bite around the Joke by Coke, I’d say the Varsity would probably be your best bet. You’ll probably see as many folks there in red and black as in Tech colors.
UPDATE: Just got word of this today: The crew from “1980 Dawgs” will once again be joined by Georgia football legends Scott Woerner, Rex Robinson and possibly other members of the 1980 team at the Varsity on North Avenue before and after the game on Saturday, where they will be meeting fans, signing copies of “1980 Dawgs” DVDs and talking Georgia football. That’s Saturday, 9 a.m.-11:30 a.m. and right after the game for two hours.
David writes: Can anyone tell me why the cutoff for orders to the SEC Championship was last week before they even beat Kentucky? And why season ticket holders were not even notified? UGA has lost a supporter.
I’d have to say your devotion to UGA wasn’t very deep if that’s all it takes to lose you. But to answer your question, they offered Bulldog Club members (Hartman Fund donors aka season ticket holders) the chance to place orders for SEC championship tickets in advance (just like they do with all the possible bowl destinations) in order to be able to process them quickly once it was official. And if you’re a season ticket holder and you didn’t get either an email (several, actually) or something in the mail, then you ought to check with the folks at the Bulldog Club office in Athens and see whether they have your correct contact information. By the way, on Wednesday they announced the Hartman Fund cumulative contribution cutoff points for the 16,000 tickets Georgia is allotted to the SEC game. All contributors who ordered with a cumulative score of 100,000 and higher will receive up to 6 tickets. All contributors who ordered with a cumulative score between 52,500-99,999 will receive up to 4 tickets. And all contributors who ordered with a cumulative score between 12,050-52,499 will receive up to 2 tickets. UGA faculty, staff and students also were eligible for tickets, depending on various priority factors. The tickets were put into the mail Wednesday via the U.S. Postal Service.
Brian Cheshire writes: Hey Junkyard, I was just wondering if you have heard anything about Coach Richt stepping down after this year? If so why is he telling these recruits (Theus, Marshall) he is going to be there?
You’re referring to the rumor reported this week by GamingToday.com that claimed Richt would voluntarily leave Georgia at the end of the season. I put no credence in the report, which cited “sources in the South Carolina/Georgia area.” Hmm. South Carolina? Think anyone there might want to manufacture a rumor about the coach of the team that aced out the Gamecocks for the SEC East? The report, which didn’t have any credibility to spare, pretty much veered off into fantasy land when it said that the top candidates to replace Richt were Mike Bobo and Derek Dooley. And when Richt was asked this week on local radio whether the rumor was true, he indicated he wants to coach about another nine years and isn’t looking to leave UGA.
Charles from Albany writes: Bill, I was thinking about this after the weekend upsets. If instead of UGA playing Boise State in the opener, [they had gone] ahead with playing and beating Louisville, where do you think we would be in the discussion of one-loss teams playing for the BCS Championship? Love the Blawg.
Thanks. If Georgia had not lost to Boise State and was the SEC champion then, yes, I think a one-loss UGA might well have made the BCS championship. But no use thinking about might-have-beens. As it is, if Georgia wins out and is the SEC champion, the conference likely will get three teams into the BCS.
Tyler Knight writes: Bill, what are your thoughts on Ken Malcome? When he runs, he looks like a legit running back. I know he had the bad fumble, but he looks much more like an SEC running back than Brandon Harton or even Carlton Thomas. I think we should have given him more playing time.
You generally win playing time in practice and Malcome obviously did not impress Georgia’s coaches as much as Richard Samuel or Thomas did. From what little I’ve seen of him running, I’d say he had the potential to possibly be as useful as Samuel, assuming he could hold on to the ball, but he hasn’t developed the consistency the coaches were looking for. If he sticks around the program, who knows?
Finally, Brett Lassiter writes: Blair Walsh’s field goal game went into the tank this year, practically forcing the offense to make more plays in the clutch (not that UGA Nation preferred FGs to TDs). What I have noticed, though, is that his extra point game has still been pretty much dead center. What do you think are the chances that Blair has been throwing FGs in order to get the offense to do more?
A lot of folks love conspiracy theories but I’m not seeing Walsh on the grassy knoll in this case.

Georgia is going to seriously beat Tech down this weekend. They’ve had all week to solely focus on Tech. No class, no nothing. Just football to worry about and beating Tech….this is Grantham’s 2nd time facing this offense and you can bet he’ll have a better understanding of how to stop it this time…last year was his first season going up agianst it, and he’ll have his players ready to go in his 2nd season going up against it….you can count on that….Murray and the offense will get rolling vs. that porous Tech defense and will hang about 35+ on them.
Dawgs roll. Tech will rush for about 200 yards. That’s actually shutting them down.

Bill,
Thanks for another blog that confirms you are the homer tool that all football fans hate. Is it no wonder that UGA fans are perceived as the most obnoxious fans in the SEC, if not the country? It’s time for you and bulldog nation to wake up and realize that you are not a national contender, never have been, with the exception of the mid-1940s and the Herschel years. Please stop with the contention that you are relevant on the national scene; you are a provincial program that occasionally backs into a conference championship. The sooner you and the rest of the delusional fan base comes to this realization is the day UGA is respected on the national scene.

Also, most people pick LSU as having more obnoxious fans in the SEC, and I don’t know of anyone who has actually attended UGA who thinks we are currently a national championship contender. We don’t take as many math courses as tech, but we know even an unlikely win vs LSU would not put us in the top 2.

Thanks for a profound statement, “No one made you read the blog.” Does that undermine my contention? Or do you just not get it? UGA fans have an overinflated opinion of their program. They are not a national championship contender on a consistent basis but act as if they are a top progam on the level with Alabama and Texas. Even Georgia Tech has more NCs than UGA, and theirs was only 21 years ago vice 31 years ago. Admit it, you are drinking the Bill King kool-aid.

Name for me one national championship GT has won which was consensus? Having trouble, there is not one. If we are talking about championships from any media source, UGA has (5) of which one is consensus, GT has either 4 or 5, none of which are consensus. By the way, let’s look at all time wins, winning %, bowl victories, SEC-UGA vs. SEC and ACC championships for Tech. Not even close Sherlock! Let me know when your team becomes relevant.

I’m just pointing out that you don’t have to read UGA stuff, that would lower your annoyance level. Might help your blood pressure too if it’s giving you any trouble.
GT may have more NCs, but check the all time UGA-GT record, the record for the past 30 years, and the past 10. UGA is ahead in all. Glass houses…
Neither team has recently been a serious contender, and both should chill out until they can consistently contend.

BTP, since three other posters have pointed out that this is a Fan Blog (says as much in the intro), I won’t belabor that issue. But I disagree about the most obnoxious fan base. UT Vols fans win that prize (mainly when they are winning-right now they aren’t sayi ng m uch).They seem to have more fans who didn’t attend the university than any other team. I can state this because I live among them. As far as delusional, you may be right, but I’m not in that group.I do hope UGA has a good season every year, but I’m not one of those who call for a coach’s head because he hasn’t brought us a MNC. Or even a down year occasionally. I understand that success in the sports arena runs in cycles.
However, it’s a heckuva lot of fun to see the Bug fans get their panties all in a wad when the Dawgs win year after year.

I pull for Tech to win every week until they face Georgia. It’s not that I have any love for Tech. I just figure that beating a good Tech team helps Georgia in the polls more than beating a bad Tech team. The perfect season would have an undefeated Georgia team beating an undefeated Tech team in late November to ruin Tech’s perfect season and then beating them a second time in the BCS Championship game to clinch the National Championship.
As to the question/complaint from David about the SEC Championship game ticket orders: I received several Bulldog Club emails about pre-ordering tickets leading up to the deadline. I think they started arriving sometime before the Auburn game and concluded with a final email on the deadline date. Enough people received notifications that it required more than $12,000 in cumulative donations to get a pair of tickets. If UGA lost David’s support, I hope his season tickets were better than mine so I can move a little closer to the 50 yard line next year.

I’ve been a rabid Dawg fan since I was 9 years old. I was born in 1950, spent four great years in Athens. I saw Joe Namath play in Athens (we scored first but they won) before he hurt his knees and when he was a threat as a runner.I saw the ‘65 flea flicker play.I was at Grant Field in 71 when Andy Johnson led us back on the final scoring drive.
Moved out of state after graduation and haven’t lived in Georgia since ‘72 and 16 of those years were spent overseas so i see very few live games now.
When I was a child I pulled against Tech no matter who they played.
But when I became an adult I began to pull for Georgia Tech every game they were not playing us.
The reasons not to pull for them are not great reasons given our dominance the last decade.
But I understand the princlple.
And the obnoxiousness of St. Simons alone outweighs all UGA cumulative obnoxiousness.
I can only guess the hatred of Tech became serious during their 8 game winning streak in the 50’s.
But that’s long ago.
And by the same reasoning I always pull against Florida.

What a totally stupid question.
I am a Bulldog. I pull for Georgia. There is no scenario you could draw up where I would root for anybody playing Georgia tek, other than for Georgia tek to lose. I take great satisfaction in Georgia tek losing because of their fans – both of them – on the AJ-C.
Our # 1 Rival longterm is Auburn. Since Florida got added to our schedule every year and since they are in The SEC Least, Florida is now our # 1 Rival – mostly because we have beat them 3 of the last 11 and 4 out of the last 22. The vols are our # 3 Rival, basically always have been after Georgia tek quit The SEC over Revenue Sharing – Georgia tek did not want Revenue Sharing. Or, maybe I should say Bobby Dodd did not want Revenue Sharing. Bobby Dodd who is a college drop-out from the vols who not 1 time as Georgia tek’s head coach beat Vince Dooley as our head coach, and who lost to Vince Dooley coached teams here every single time the 2 played. Bobby Dodd could not beat the better players who are at The SEC state schools. And, he included Auburn in that list, too. Georgia tek would rank a worse Rival than South Carolina, now too. Clearly South Carolina is our # 4 best Rival. Alabama and LSU, in the years we play them, like this year are our next 2 Rivals. I would rate Climpsum Farmers up there with Rivals as well. Somewhere after all those is Georgia tek. Georgia tek does not compete. They are in the ACC America’s cupcake conference. The whole conference does not count and never has. They have added all these teams, and still don’t compete with The SEC in football or all the other sports with us either. I think if we played Climpsum every year again like we used to, that I would consider Climpsum a bigger Rival than Georgia tek because again Georgia tek is a no-win scenario for us. Nothing to gain and everything to lose. What does that make Georgia tek for me as a fan ? About our # 7 Rival.
However, I would root for all but Climpsum and Georgia tek in a bowl game. I would root for Climpsum and for Georgia tek, only to lose, no matter what the game and no matter who the opponent. I don’t root for Georgia tek. Sorry. I would take special satisfaction, however, if a win by Georgia tek handed us a national championship because they had done what they swore they would never do, and that is to help UGA. They are only there to hurt us.

The 3 times Mark Richt beat Florida, Florida lost 5 games, lost 4 games and lost 5 games that season.
He should have beat them many other years, such as :
(1) 2002 Florida had 5 losses should have been 6 losses 2002.
(2) 2010 Florida had 5 losses should have been 6 losses 2010.
(3) 2005 Mark Richt should never have settled in with Joe Tereshinski III as our Quarterback, anyone other than him in that game, and Florida would have had 4 losses that season. We ended up 2005 as the # 3 ranked SEC team in every single poll.
(4) 2003 Ron Zook had 5 losses should have been 6 losses and Mark Richt lost that game too when he also should have won it.
3-8 and should have been 7-4.
7-4 assumes that Mark Richt NEVER BEATS the top teams, or if he does he otherwise loses 4 games, loses 3 games or loses 4 games that season he does actually beat a top team. A top team is a team who ends up in the AP Poll top 10; we don’t beat them in our good seasons. Our good seasons under Mark Richt our opponents were no good who we beat and even then lose good years, we lost to teams who we just should not have lost to, such as our Loss to our # 4 Rival this season, South Carolina who we should have beat clearly should have beat.

I’ll always root for Tech when they’re not playing UGA. First of all, it makes the game more exciting. Second, when we beat Tech, it looks (and feels) a whole lot better to derail an undefeated Tech than to beat a limping 6-5 Tech team.

OoltewahDawg is correct. UT Vol fans are by far the most obnoxious fans. They wear their Orange colors to church on Sundays, in GA. and are more interested in overtly offending UGA fans at church, than going to church. This is from personal observation and experience, in churches in GA, not just an opinion. UT fans in GA, will fly their banners, until they lose their first game and then take them down, but still wear their Vol clothing to church. They are beyond obnoxious. I have personally observed them literally harassing the stew out of the pastor of one church, so bad, it was sickening. I basically had to tell this one UT Vol fan to back off. The pastor was doing everything he could do to not reply. He turned toward me, nodded his head to me and said thanks. I cannot stand UT. I felt like a traitor this year when I pulled for them when playing SC, but did not shed a tear when they lost anyway.

Well, all of us fans are entitled to our little opinions, and I’m with Tyler Knight on Malcome. Malcome is one to watch. Maybe the groin slowed his progression, but I think he has tremendous potential. Crowell is quicker, but Malcome looks to run harder. Malcome does need experience, confidence and more time in S&C, but he looks the most like an Ingram/Richardson type back of all the Dawgs imo. I think he might be our best bet against a Bama or LSU. I would certainly use Crowell the most, but I would see what Boo could do. Crowell’s unique gifts are his vision and quick cutting ability, and they are special. Samuel has the best physical attributes, but he still isn’t quite there on body lean, balance and leverage. His clear improvement by the UF game shows he is definitely worth watching. He could become a monster. Malcome’s frame, vision, lean and running instinct can’t be hidden–he looks like a natural to me. I did think it was interesting that CMR said Malcome didn’t get much work last week before the KY game. Being down the list, losing Thomas at the last second, and the game time Crowell injury all meant he got in very cold. I thought he continued to look better as the game went on, and CMR said he got a lot of work this week. I hope they put him in to try and hammer the Jacket D. What we can’t see is attitude, and Bill has a point: the coaches want to win, and so far they haven’t given him much of a look outside of practice. Maybe they made up their minds when he was hurt, maybe he still isn’t 100%, and maybe he isn’t that good. However, I can name several NFL TBs that the staff didn’t fully appreciate while they were at UGA. Again, just fan banter on my part before the big game. Putting it on the ground is definitely a ticket straight to the pine. Go Dawgs.

Another point: the higher the rank of our opponents, the better we do in BCS if we win. All the talk about us only beating unranked teams is a good point, but if we had beaten SC and BSU, I doubt either team would be in the top 20. Something to think about because if a team beats a sound team like UGA, they tend to rank high.

I don’t even pay attention to GT until Thanksgiving for the same reason I don’t pay attention to VMI, Colorado State, Wyoming, etc. I happily admit I am obsessed with all things UGA (I’m a third generation DAWG) but that fixation takes up my “sports time” during football season. I don’t leave room for anyone else.
In fact, the reason I logged on this morning was too see if there are any running back updates for the good guys. I know we had a morning practice Thursday. Does anyone know anything about the condition of Crowell and/or the Thomas situation?

Would you expect it to all negative about the DAWGS and all positive about the other teams. They have meds for your kind of delusional thinking. You say you don’t have a favorite team and the Fans of UGA are this and that. Give me a break here fellow. Your gold and white boxers are sticking out of your pants. If the fact that UGA fans are fanatical about their team and that bothers you, don’t read or come onto a a column that is devoted to UGA.

The athletic history of UGA is full of so many sordid, sleazy incidents – dating back to Vince Dooley and continuing through Mark Richt – that it’s impossible to overlook. The school has come to stand for drunkenness and lawlessness, coddling of illiterate low-class athletes who should never have been admitted to college, and rampant cheating by coaches.
UGA and Mark Richt are an affront and an embarrassment to all decent people in this state.

All of this hyperbole aside, I learned late yesterday that my nephew who is an e4 specialist with the 101st Division in Afghanistan escaped serious injury along with his unit yesterday.He and 5 other soldiers were traveling in an armored vehicle and ran over an IED. The vehicle was severely jarred and immobilized, and everyone was banged up in varying degrees, but no shrapnel penetrated through the armour. My nephew is being evaluated for a concussion, and only one other soldier was hurt a little worse than that. He called my sister yesterday and told her about it so she wouldn’t hear it from someone else first.
Let’s all pause for a little bit and put a post up if you have a relative in harm’s way, and everyone please stop and say a prayer for all of them.

This is “good old fashion hate” personified! The day before the Tech-GA game, chests poking out, shouts, jokes and rude remarks. It goes on in AL, SC, FL and many other places. Just rivalry and some real hatred.
As a GA native, UGA alum and a real fan, I have almost always pulled for Tech when playing other teams. They have the name “Georgia” on their school.
I love the Dawgs as much and maybe more than most, but feel it all has to be in perspective. The Dawgs have had a tough time this year overall, but tough people rise up. This they have done. I hope they continue to do so in the next few weeks and in a decent bowl. I hope Tech does well also – next season! GO DAWGS!

I pull for GT every week prior to the Thanksgiving weekend for a reason:
I want their win / loss record to be the best possible going into our annual rivalry game.
I want them undefeated with a perceived assurance and high-hopes for a victory over UGA.
That makes the bragging rites that much sweeter when we do beat them, and the trash talk (usually) quieter for the following year!
That’s just my reasoning; loving any and every win over GT.
Hope both teams play their best with no injuries; we’ll need everyone healthy next week in the SECCG!

I used to be of the mind set that Tech. was a Georgia school and therefore, except when they played my DAWGS I would hope they won. This year though, it appears that their fans have taken ignorant to a whole new level with their comments and even resorted to hiding behind names trying to mask who they are truly a fan of. They have proven that they truly are a second rate school, and I can’t ever see a circumstance where I would want them to win. They are the one school, I would hope we run up the score on, whenever the circumstances allow it. They hate UGA more than they like Tech. Of course, when you think about it, if you have to resort to lies and fall back, on the excuse of tougher academic standards as the reason you can’t beat your big brother, even though we know those standards don’t apply to their athletic teams, what else can you expect.

Yeah, my wrassling trunks were gold lame because I always liked Georgia Tech. Down at the old Atlanta Municipal Auditorium we always had a few Tech students in the audience.
After Tech beats Georgie tomorrow, I am considering pulling for Georgie in their game against LSU. It will make the Tech win a little sweeter. Tech will have beaten the SEC champions and that will be pretty cool. The problem will be at Grant Field, some of the Georgie fans might misbehave and make it tough to pull for them. I hope the Tech boys don’t hurt any of the Georgie players so that they are at their best against LSU.
Georgia Southern and their high school offense put 21 on Alabama and I suspect that Georgia Tech might be a better team than Southern and Alabama might be a little better than Georgie.

There’s a very good reason many Tech fans this year share a special resentment towards dawg fans, and it mainly has to do with one of your best and brightest that frequents the AJC and several other bulldog fan blogs around the web. He even created one himself to harass Georgia Tech recruits, commits, and current athletes (firepauljohnson.blogspot.com). That goes above and beyond the typical “hate” that exists between the two fanbases. It is being taken care of though : )

A certain former SEC coach comes to mind…Enjoy the actual game, along with the biannual lube job at the Varsity. Remember it could be basketball, tennis, or some other boring season–this too shall pass, and you will have to start reading about recruits and how great they are supposed to be to tide you over.

I spent a couple of years in grad school at UT and the Vols fans do take first prize in obnoxious at the games. But the Georgia fans take first place for obnoxious away from the stadium.
I firmly believe, that for a reason beyond comprehension, Georgia fans have an inferiority complex about their football team. Maybe it is the lack of mythical NC, maybe it is the run by Florida, maybe it is the other conference teams having so much success on the national stage since Georgia had success 31 years ago. But the inferiority complex is there. And it is real.
Why would Georgia fans go into orbit over beating an average, at best, Tech team? It would be like Tech going into orbit over beating Duke (GT has won 15 of the last 16). And Tech fans never get excited about beating Duke. Georgia has won 10 of the last 11 Tech games, correct? Why is Georgia beating Tech so important? Answer, it feeds the inferiority complex.

The report that Richt will step down after this year makes no sense.First , he has two more tears left on his contract and second his wife is in her first year of nursing school which takes two years to complete . If Richt was to volunteer to leave at the earliest it would be at the end of 2013.
Now if Richt has already told McGarity that he will not be renewing his contract in two years then if the right coach is available before then but may not be when Richt leaves McGarity would then be forced to make the change before Richt’s contract expires.
So, I think that Richt will eventually leave on his own to do volunteer work in the name of GOD but he is still young enough that one more contract extension would probably be more what works and that would give his wife time to graduate and get about three years experience as a real nurse so she can be really helpful when the Richt’s go to places like Honduras. I would think that Mark Richt would be very receptive to a three year extension which would give him 5 more years. That would also make his youngest child 19 years old so not much education expense left . If CMR got a 5 year extension that would give him 7 years in all which would get his youngest child through college. Make no mistake getting a child through college without having a student loan is a big deal for the parent’s and the child.

Read my last post and tell me TECH people don’t go to war. many NASA pilots were MILITARY Pilots. Many Tech Engineers work for D.O.D. contractors creating weapons for war. Many of those weapons keep US men & women form being on the battle field in harms way.

Bobo is not ready, and everyone knows it, and Dooley’s contract won’t allow such a move. The rumor was apparently started by someone connected to or in the fan base of South Carolina.

I root for Tech in all games not against UGA. The simple reason is that the better their record is when they receive tehir inevitable beat down by the Dawgs .. the better it makes us look for smacking them around. It also helps us in the computer rankings.
Realistically, it’s the same reason I root for SEC schools in OOC play. When we beat a 5-5 Tech team we gain nothing from it. It’s like beating Coastal Carolina. When we beat a 9-1 Tech team that is ranked we get credit for winning yet another difficult game.
Plus .. it makes it all the more bitter for Tech fans .. which is ALWAYS a good thing.

Jeffreyd, it is not one isolated incident. No fanbase is perfect, neither is UGA’s. I stand by my comments. UT Vol fans are the most obnoxious. You obviously haven’t had to deal with a church full of them. When you are more ‘my school is the best’ than interested in going to church, while at church, there is no argument to defend them. Thus was observed, annually, for many years. By the way, the point is most obnoxious fan base, not individual fan.

Chill out. I was referring to a significant part of the history of this rivalry. Tech continued playing football during WWI while UGA suspended sports because of a lack of male students. “When UGA renewed its program in 1919, the student body staged a parade, which mocked Tech’s continuation of football during times of war. The parade featured a tank shaped float emblazoned with the words ‘UGA IN ARGONNE’ followed by a yellow-clad donkey and a sign that read ‘TECH IN ATLANTA.’” This is a long-held rivalry point that has fueled “clean old fashioned hate” for years. If you don’t know the history of the series, then I can see you getting your panties in a wad, but learn some self control. Nothing hurts your credibility more than vulgarity; it makes you appear ignorant.

The reason UGA students called out Tech was, probably, because Tech was UGA’s biggest rival. I imagine the students knew that would get under Tech fans’ collective skins. I suspect it worked pretty well.
I had a great-grandfather who graduated from UGA who also served in WWI; this story was the reason he always gave for rooting against Tech in every sport and every game.

As a UGA fan, I’d rather play Alabama than LSU, so I’m rooting for ARK. I’m also realistic; UGA would probably lose to LSU 8 out of 10 times on a neutral field and would likely lose to Alabama 7 out of 10 times on a neutral field. I think ARK and UGA are about equal; ARK has a great offense, but inconsistent defense while UGA is exactly the opposite. I just don’t see any way for ARK to end up in the SECCG, neither do I think they are the best team in the west.

That was the good news for UGA fans. The bad news was that the 1980 Pitt team (yes, 1980!) came in at number 4.

How ’bout them Dawgs!!!!! Here are some numbers for you: 10 out of 11, 31-17 and 0 ACC Championships under Paul Johnson. Your ENTIRE year is ruined because ALL you guys care about is beating Georgia. You have a huge inferiority complex and will be LOSERS no matter whether you ever win the game again or not!
Go Dawgs!!!!

Hey Bill, you should look in to the Tech fan and student reaction to Mr Munson’s passing, it will make any human being with half a heart sick! I’ve been hearing a lot of chatter about them disgracing his halftime memorial, and then there’s the GT blog…..

(sorry for reposting this but I want as many people to know as possible what the GT fan base is made of)

Never understood the “haters” on either side, Bill. As a UGA grad, I pull for us when we play Tech but I also root for Tech when they play anyone else. And because of their classy tribute to Munson this past weekend any animosity felt by my UGA brethren should have softened considerably.

The Blair Walsh question is pure stupidity. I cannot believe you even dignified that with an answer.

As a BULLDOG FAN, grew up in Atlanta, Georgia Tech players are like our BROTHERS who live across town! When we play Them we want to beat them and when they are playing someone else I am for the RAMBLIN WRECK!!! And as for the great LARRY MUNSON, he had the unique ability to let you not only see the game without being there, YOU COULD FEEL IT TOO! GOD BLESS YA LARRY!!! GO DAWGS!!!! IF YA BEAT #1…YOU ARE #1 !!!
