Although season tickets are again sold out, Georgia will put a “limited number” of single-game tickets to three home football games on sale to the general public next week.
Tickets to the Sept. 4 season opener against Louisiana-Lafayette, the Sept. 18 game against Arkansas and the Nov. 6 game against Idaho State will be available starting at 9 a.m. Tuesday by phone (1-877-542-1231) and online (www.georgiadogs.com). The tickets are $45 apiece.
The tickets are available because the opposing team did not require as many seats as for some other games and/or because UGA season-ticket holders did not request as many additional seats as for some other games. Georgia typically has a small number of single-game tickets available to the general public for a couple of home games each year, but it’s surprising that the Arkansas game — the Bulldogs’ first SEC home game and a potential matchup of Top 25 teams — is available.
Georgia said the single-game orders will be filled on a “first-come, first-serve” basis.

Guess the myth the UGA sells out every game has been busted. There would be no single game seats available for the season ticket holders to request extra if more fans bought season ticket packages to begin with.
I attend a game in Athens every other year and occasionally also attend another game there of national import (like the Bama game there three years ago) but I am an Auburn fan that has never seen that contest sold out in Athens by actual fannies in the seats. There are always empty seats in the upper decks!

SECRules, UR a dumb @$$ that can’t read. The article plainly says the tickets have been returned by the other schools. There will be a few more returned a week or so before the games. The demand has been greater than the supply for years. Ask the poor folks that give >$1K to the UGA foundation and still can’t buy season tickets. Also, not sure when you have seen many empty seats at recent games, unless you are referring to the 2nd half of last couple of games vs. Auburn. Not many Auburn fans around during the 4th quarter.

Gotta love the poster’s name at 4:39 p.m…. yeah, Georgia is terrified of scheduling good opponents… that’s why we have games all the time against Boise, Clemson, Oklahoma St., Colorado, Georgia Tech, Arizona State, Louisville, etc.
Obviously that moron at 4:39 p.m. doesn’t realize that Georgia CAN’T play Bama and LSU every year because THE SEC sets conference schedules, NOT the individual schools.
Of course, Alabama and LSU have played and scheduled such mammoth games in recent years such as Georgia State, Duke, Western Illinois, Middle Tennessee, San Jose State, Florida International, Louisiana Monroe, North Texas, Tulane, Arkansas State, Western Carolina, McNeese State, Louisiana LaFayette, etc. etc. etc. etc.

Facts — well-said. The SEC sets schedules, and any SEC fan knows this… apparently the moron at 4:39 thinks we can just schedule anybody, anytime, anywhere every summer… doesn’t work like that. Schedules are usually set 3, 4, or 5 years in advance.
Oh, well. I have never had any problem with Georgia’s schedule… with 8 SEC games each year AND the Florida game being a road game every year AND our in-state rival being from a BCS conference, I don’t mind at all if our other two non-conference games have traditionally been an easy one and an average one. Hopefully now with 12-game schedules, we’ll find more regional matchups that are even… maybe schedule another ACC team or a Big 12 team or a Big 10 team… would be cool to see UGA play in Chapel Hill or Iowa City or Lawrence or East Lansing or College Station or Blacksburg.

All of you like SECRules don’t have a damn cluewhat you are talking about here. Morons.
Read the damn article blind idiots. The tickets are from an allotment given to every (ALL) road team that comes to Athens. Every team does this. Tickets like the ones mentioned are those that were not purchased by the VISITORS, you ignorant bored viles. As far as empty seats instead of actual fannies SECRules when you go….grow a brain will a…those upperdeck tickets are again unused VISITORS tickets. UGA fans will gooble them up in less than an hour. Want to rag on someone go to an Arky board or the other two schools…they are the ones abandoning their team…
Next time get some facts before coming here and spewing this crap. Go fix your pocketprotectors and calculators instead of posting. You came to have a battle of wits….only thing is that you came without any ammunition.

Some people don’t sedem to be able to comprehend the article – claiming that the available tickets are because of lack of interest from visiting teams.
Although many of the tickets are being returned by the visitors some may be available “because UGA season-ticket holders did not request as many additional seats as for some other games”.
I would guess one season ticket holder who didn’t take as many additional single game tickets in 2010 is Damon Evans. Since he is moving from Athens he doesn’t need as many tickets to give out to the local law enforcement personnel late in the evening.

I have a serious question about UGA’s SEC schedule. What proportion of the dates are set by the conference? I mean the dates of the games, not who UGA plays. In the ACC “traditional rivalry games” (e.g. Duke-UNC) are played pretty much the same time but the rest of them seem to float around. Last year GT played Clemson and Miami early – this year they play them later one, etc.

Hey Still at the bar @ 5:35…. first of all, Georgia has played Clemson for decades, usually every few years…. as I recall, both schools wanted to look at some other games and temporarily disbanded the series. But I believe they are picking it up again in a few years. And, truth be told, we beat Clemson A LOT during the 80s, 90s and 2000s.
Now, as for your other senseless critcisms: Georgia scheduled Colorado when the Buffs were pretty good… as I recall, the game was scheduled about 5 years before it was played… in the early 2000s, Colorado went to the Big 12 title game 4 out of 5 years… how is Georgia supposed to know they would stink in 2006? you can’t assume a team will always be the same year in and year out. And we scheduled the home-and-home with Oklahoma St. YEARS ago… we beat ‘em handily in Athens, they beat us handily in Stillwater… what’s the shame in losing on the road to a top-15 team during the best period in their team’s history?
What school do you root for anyway? I see you messing on Georgia but not standing up for what school you root for and believe in… oh, wait, you don’t have a favorite team, do you?

Delbert — I know. But, see, Georgia gets crapped on by everybody when it plays La.Lafayette or Tulane or whoever…. But, if Bama or Florida or LSU play them, nobody says s***. It’s just a double standard and I’m sick of it.
If Georgia is such a bad program, the stadium wouldn’t be one of the 10 largest in the nation, recruits would not flock to Athens, the team would not be ranked in the top 20 pretty much every year for three decades, and the networks would not televise their big rivalry games. You don’t see Illinois or Virginia or Arizona or Minnesota having big national followings, playing in big bowls, raking in millions of dollars and winning on average 10 games a year do you?
Some of these people on the blog I guess expect UGA to schedule 3 top-five teams every year for its non-conference games… yet their favorite teams, like Tech and LSU and such, wouldn’t dare to that. Double standard.

Yeah, that’s what I thought… that Alabama or LSU or ANYBODY can’t say definitively that they have a MUCH tougher schedule year-in and year-out than Georgia. Case closed.
Besides, UGA can’t win either way. The Bulldogs win 10 games, people say “Oh, easy schedule.” If Georgia scheduled a lot harder and went 8-4 a few times, people would say “Oh, Georgia’s not any good, Richt should be fired.” So it’s a darned-if-you-do situation. And quite honestly, Georgia’s football history speaks for itself… it doesn’t need to defend it’s football schedule, records, results or history to fans of any other school.

We had Ole Miss last and the backed out on us. We had Bama for 13-14 and they wanted to move it to the future. We have tried to get the Vols and they want play us.

Georgia has met the criteria easily for the 2000’s (except for 2009), and indeed Georgia ranks 7th overall for the 1980’s (88-27-4, .756 winning percentage.) However, in the 1990’s, the ranking is 26th overall (72-43-1, .625 winning percentage.)

Please, at least spell properly if you’re going to have an intelligent argument… otherwise, it makes you look dumb, quite honestly.
And whatever team you are talking about with “we”…. you know, there ARE other conferences out there. Maybe the SEC thinks that playing your team wouldn’t do anything for them, so they look elsewhere. And if SEC teams “won’t” play you, then by all teams, call another conference! I’m sure somebody will play you.
And your assessment about Clemson wanting to play UGA but the school “will not do it”… that’s a load of crap. BOTH schools wanted to look at other scheduling options, including more national games, especially with the schedules expanding to 12 games on a permanent basis. And the two schools ARE planning to play again in the next few years.

Delbert — I mean for the most part, Georgia is a nationally-ranked team. I know the 90s were not a strong decade, but it’s hard to compare to other eras of greatness AND it’s hard to be a top-five team when two other teams in our division (Fla. and Tenn.) both had exceptionally strong runs in the mid 1990s.
But still, for the most part, ever since Dooley came to Georgia, the ‘Dogs are usually an 8-win-or-better team more often than not. We’ve had, what, three or four losing seasons since 1980? How many teams can say that? Not many.
I think UGA should be very proud of its success on the field over the last 10, 20, 30, 40 years… and I think that success will continue into the future.

And don’t give me the “we tried to play so-and-so and they wouldn’t” crap… fans have no idea what goes on in schedule meetings and why games may or may not happen.

Right now their OOC schedule looks *real* ugly until home and homes with Syracuse in ‘15-’16 and Auburn after that. SC State (10-2 FCS) and Middle Tennessee St. (10-3 bowl winner) this year are real gems compared to the near future.

Tech football is nothing to crow about, my friend… win some major bowls or win 8 out of 9 against Georgia and then you can talk. Until then, just pray that Nesbitt doesn’t get hurt because then the Jackets are SOL.
And as far as non-conference games go, I say the Tech & Georgia schedules are about even right now… but to listen to you Tech folks talk, Georgia plays William & Mary every year and Tech has Bama and Penn State and Southern Cal every year. Sheesh.

Delbert — you make a good point. It’s just that to hear most Tech fans talk, every team in the freakin’ nation is scared to death to play them, like they are the USC Trojans of 5 or 6 years ago…. when in reality, maybe some schools just don’t see any big advantage of playing a triple-option ACC team… especially considering how the ACC has done in bowl games in recent years. They don’t exactly come across as a power conference.
And let’s remember, Tech and other teams have a luxury when planning to play certain SEC teams… SEC opponents are at the mercy of the conference’s scheduling, so when your team has a down year, that may be the year you get the toughest teams from the other division. That’s why there is no comparison: playing in the SEC year in and year out is TOUGH and that is why the SEC is the best league in the country.
Can’t wait for football season!

The last 2 years they have played in the Chik-Fil-A kick off games the last 2 years against teams that were highly ranked preseason (Clemson at #9 in 2008, VT @ #5 in 2009). In 2007 ALA played at FSU. In 2010 ALA is playing at home to PSU, with a return match in Happy Valley in 2010.

To all the people talking about playing Clemson: we have a home-and-home scheduled with them in 2013 and 2014.
And to the people ragging on us for playing Louisiana-Lafayette…name one team that doesn’t schedule at least 1 or 2 BS opponents every year.

This whole red panty thing has provided more education to Techies than they normally get in many moons. To sum up: 1) Yes – women wear underwear (most of the time), 2) It isn’t all white 3) To be clear, it comes in lots of colors – sometimes even red, and 4) it isn’t designed with durability as the primary design element.
These are just great times at Tech.

I cannot believe Tech fans (of all people) are ragging UGA about a few returned tickets from visiting teams that could not sell their allotment. Are you serious????? The only team in the entire SEC they could possibly rag on would be Vandy…MAYBE!
And strength of schedule. Again, are you serious??? In the “Almost College Conference”? You guys are becoming more and more like Nole fans.
Remember the old joke…..Why did the chicken cross the road?
To get to the ACC!!!!! That applies to Tech as well as FSU.
The ACC should give up their BCS bid to the Mountain West. They at least win one every now and then. The ACC has won what….one BCS game?

Delbert,
I stand corrected. They doubled their win total with the VT win. My point was these guys have been bashing UGA over their non-conference schedule when their in conference schedule has been a joke for most of the past decade. It’s necessary to schedule tougher non-conf opponents when you don’t play but 1 or 2 quality teams in your conference slate. Just like it is in the Mountain West.

“The NCAA’s toughest-schedule program (which began in 1977) is based on what all FBS opponents did against other FBS teams when not playing the team in question. Games against non-FBS teams are deleted, and nine intradivision games are required to qualify. (Bowl games are not included.)”

Most difficult schedule – 1978 Notre Dame – Joe Montana became a legend
The 1978 Notre Dame team was led by Joe Montana. The Cotton Bowl vs. Houston was the a classic. Montana had the flu, and was 1-11 passing as Houston took a 20-12 lead at the half. Montana had hypothermia from the cold weather, and got IV’s and chicken soup at halftime. He brought Notre Dame back to within 6, but Houston forced a Montana fumble. Houston was running out the clock and went for it on 4th down. Notre Dame stopped them, getting the ball on the Houston 29 with 00:28 to play. Two plays later, Montana had them on the 8 yard line with 6 seconds left. After an incomplete pass, with 2 seconds left, Montana hit Kris Haines in the corner of the end zone to tie the game. The PAT gave Notre Dame the 35-34 win.
I paraphrased the above from a post at http://www.fanbase.com/Notre-Dame-Fighting-Irish-Football-1978

If some of you would read the whole article instead of just the parts you want to read you’d see that some of the tickets that are still available because season ticket holders opted not to buy as many single game tickets. That means there is less interest from UGA fans than in previous years or that they are having to cut their budget. Granted these tickets will sell, at least the ones to the Arkansas game, but at the time the article was written it was newsworthy because three UGA home games are not sold out a month before the season starts. It hasn’t been that way in a few years.

Chero — These type of tickets always come available at this time of year….always have and always will….the reason is the away team is alloted x amount of tickets (approx 10k)…..the opposing team releases back to the home schoole the tickets they are unable to sell…this always happens with small out of conference schools and/or middle of the pack far away conference teams that do not travel well (i.e. Ark or MS State)…..these tickets are then offered to Season Ticket holders who order EXTRA single game tickets (tickets in ADDITION to their standard allotment of tickets) and if there are any left over they are then sold to the general public and are typically snapped up and the game is sold out….

We have a running back, that can really jump, he’s as short as Murray the stump, but when we give him the ball, he will take your red panties and put them on the wall.
All your running backs blow, but you better watch out for ours, as they can jump over players like KNOWSHOW.

Now that we’re in the off-season, wouldn’t this be the perfect time to take an in-depth look at UGA and have a serious discussion about the problems at UGA and why the arrest rate of players is the highest in the country? it’s common knowledge that UGA is a party school, but have any football players every actually graduated with a real degree? Jan Kemp exposed the school and the coaches almost three decades ago, but there is no sign that anything has improved; if anything, the arrest rate shows that things are getting more outrageous every year while the clueless Mark Richt has absolutely no control over his players. And then there is the infamous “red panties” incident that will haunt UGA for decades.
UGA has a lot bigger problem than hiring a new AD.
UGA has become a major embarrassment to all Georgians, and we want some answers starting now.
