When's the last time a 22-point underdog beat a team by 10 points?

I dunno but my roommate is a GSU grad and i am forced to listen to a lot of stuff about their football team. They have a better coach than PJ. I think they win easily, I could be completely wrong though and wont be surprised if I am.

Not sure but Muschamp's squad was {unofficially} 27.5 point favorites when GSU beat them 26-20.

Stanford was a 41 pt dog to USC in 2007 and they ended up winning 24-23. Largest point spread upset ever.

Only Tech runs a high school offense now.

Well unless you consider the spread option high school

re: Georgia Tech vs Georgia Southern, the new rivalry (Posted on 9/9/14 at 3:54 pm to Jefferson Dawg) LINK The odds of a 22 point underdog winning are: actual: 3.9 % estimated: 6.7% As for a 22pt dog winning by 10, I don't know. My guess would be less than 1% of the time. Ga Southern beating the Gators in The Swamp by 6 has to be close. Anybody know what the line on that game was? Edit: Just saw dawgfarker's post. 27.5...

You DO realize injecting a math equation into this further means the Nerds are fricked right?

It was probably a bowl game where the heavily favored team just showed up flatter than a pancake. The lines in the Sugar and Fiesta were high last year but I'm not sure if either were that high. The last one I can remember that I'm pretty sure fits the description was the 1996 Big 12 title game when unranked Texas beat #3 Nebraska 37-27.

Dear Tech fans, I am going to apologize for two things in advance: First I'd like to apologize for any misconceptions you have concerning Georgia Southern. We are NOT Georgia State. Nobody wants to be them, they suck. We are Georgia Southern. Our mascot is the Bald Eagle and his name is Freedom. Our mascot is NOT some endangered kitty cat that is reminiscent of an minority activist organization popular in the 60's. Our colors are Blue and White. Not some pansy royal blue a pimp in your downtown area might wear. Our colors are navy and white and our uniform scheme is similar to Alabama, except in blue. We no longer run PJ's option. We run a hybrid pistol set and we have a QB that can fly and pass. This will NOT be the offense that faced UF last year. Finally the last misconception is the most concerning to me. Most of us hate thUGA with a passion. There are some folks in Statesboro that haven't seen the light but the majority of our fans root for two favorite teams every Saturday: Georgia Southern and whoever is playing thUGA so please refrain from that sort of blasphemy when addressing Southern fans. Thank You. The second thing is this: We are coming to Atlanta Saturday to collect a payout AND win this öööö game- not necessarily in that order so yall had better bring your "A" game. We play fast, we hit hard and we have had this game circled on our calendar for quite some time. That said, I can't wait to see the AJC Sunday morning. I may break my rule and actually have to go buy one. See you Saturday.

Probably 2012 when Ga Tech got monkey hammered by Middle Tennessee State.

bullshite. I'm in savannah and go to statesboro often. Nearly every Southern fan and/or grad I know is also a huge uga fan. When in statesboro I see tons of student cars with the uga G somewhere on it. There are a few that do not like or hate uga, but it is a substantial minority in my experience.

That and the fact that they thought SEC officials robbed them when Georgia routed them 45-14 in 2012.
