Uhh, what? That crowd is always a 50/50 split and Georgia brings a ton of fans down for the game. It's a short trip.
I wish our fans (and Kirby, frankly) would stop bitching about this. WLOCP is an awesome tradition that goes completely out the window if the game is moved. Moving it to Athens or Gainesville means it becomes just another rivalry game.
Like it or not, the neutral site and tradition is why this game is special and is why this game is given the royal treatment by CBS every year even in the down years (2010) when both teams suck.
