I've had some trouble finding much info about this other than a few snippets. I know that we have 7/26 where it will be wall to wall UGA programming. Below is a list from their website, but it doesn't go into specifics on years so who knows?

12:00 AM - Kirby Smart All Access
12:30 AM - SEC Storied: Herschel Walker
1:30 AM - Georgia vs. Florida (1980)
3:30 AM - North Carolina State vs. Georgia (Site 1 / Game 3) (08 super regionals)
5:30 AM - SEC Storied: Sarah & Suzanne
6:30 AM - Vanderbilt vs. Georgia (Conference Championship) (2001 women's BB tourney final)
8:00 AM - 2016 NCAA Women's Swimming & Diving Championships (Championship)
10:00 AM - Florida vs. Georgia (2012 men's bball vs #11)
12:00 PM - Florida vs. Georgia (Site 1 / Game 2) (2016 womens SB super regional)
2:00 PM - Purdue vs. Georgia ('99/00 Outback bowl)
4:00 PM - Beneath The Helmet
5:00 PM - Best of the Bulldogs
6:00 PM - Georgia Bulldogs vs. Notre Dame Fighting Irish
8:00 PM - Kirby Smart All Access
8:30 PM - Florida vs. Georgia (1997)
10:30 PM - Georgia vs. North Carolina (1983 Men's Bball)


-All the "Georgia vs Florida"s are anyone's guess. I'd imagine 80, 07, 12 would be likely candidates.
-The 3:30am game is I'm guessing the 08 super regional. AWESOME pick that you never see on TV, and one of my favorite memories of my days living in Athens. Beckham's last home game as well that included 2 bombs.
-Vandy vs Georgia championship, no clue
-The 12pm game says site 1 game 2, so perhaps this is the women's softball super regional from a few months ago?
-Purdue game would have to be the 00 or 04 outback (after 99 and 03 seasons). Personally I'd rather watch 2000 but either are good.
-North Carolina...no idea there. Maybe NCAAT during our final 4 run? I think we beat UNC that year.

ETA: Added the years to games in question

Georgia vs North Carolina is definitely the 1983 regional where we beat this scrub named Michael Jordan. I'm hype af, never seen it

Realize there isn't too much time but would rather have a 2008 sec tourney game and another 1980-1982 era football game in there instead of some of those shitty feature shows.

Same. I was up at the green house on teh front row of the fence. Just an all around perfect weekend in Athens. Right after the game ended matt cerione beelined from the field, up the hill, came into the backyard of the house, found the nearest cooler and chugged a beer. Everyone cheered.

ESPN Classic used to air the 1981 game a lot, which would be fine with me because Keith Jackson called it.

I will make sure to set my DVR for this one. The YouTube copy of this game is horrendous quality.

I remember exactly waht I was doing for that game. Still wasn't quite old enough to travel around to away games so I was in our living room eating nacho lunchables. IIRC champ returned the opening kickoff to like the 40, and I had a feeling it could be a good day.

Easily my favorite WLOCP in my lifetime. UGA took a really good UF team behind the woodshed for an old fashioned arse kicking that day.

20 point underdogs and won by 20, very sweet.

We really need to put another beatdown on them and soon. 04 and 13 we REALLY should have worn them slap out and never did.

Especially 2013. Had Lynch caught that screen pass and not fumbled it, I fully believe that would have turned into a game where the Dawgs could name the final score. Had he caught it, that play was so open he may have taken that for a touchdown.

Funny story about the 2000 Outback Bowl.

When Georgia was losing 25-0 or 25-10 at halftime (I forget), I called up the University of Georgia Sports Information Department. I left an angry message on the answering machine telling them to fire Donnan and Dooley.

This was back when I took football too seriously.

I never imagined they would come back and win that game.

SERENITY NOW!

That was one of the very few games I can ever remember UGA winning that they had absolutely no business winning.

got home and watched (well, skimmed) the super regional game. Holy hell I forgot we hit so many homers that day. Gordon's last AB was just incredible, storybook almost. That day was probably one of my top 5 memories of all my years in Athens.

WAthcing the outback bowl against purdue now. When we went for 2 early in the 3rd quarter, Donnan ran a play that I don't know if I've seen us ever run again. We were almost in a diamond formation in the backfield. Terrence Edwards was on the left side and QC handed it to TE going to the right. Looked like a standard sweep but TE then option pitched out to Pass who was the right flank who easily walked in. Awesome play. say what you will abotu donnan but he had some creative offensive wrinkles.

Also underrated is on the drive we had with a couple minutes left in the 4th down 7 and driving to tie it, we had 4th and 12 on about the 30. TE slipped and fell, but still got up and made the catch to keep the drive alive.

can't wait for 97 florida later tonight.

It looked like the old wishbone, didn't it?

Interesting stat about ND defense in 1980. They allowed 10 ppg and that was 6th in the nation. That would be 1st by a lot now. The offenses are just so much more evolved now than they were then.

ETA: Georgia averaged 27.8 ppg on offense that season, good for 15th in the country. Last year, Georgia averaged 26.3 and finished 85th in scoring.
