On Monday, Kirby Smart admitted that Georgia Tech, not Alabama or Tennessee or Florida, is the program's true No. 1 rival right now...

quote:
“Geographically, they’re close. They’re in our state,” Smart said. “You’re playing for something every time you play them, cause you’re playing for a state championship. I think that’s always important. They do a good job, it’s the next opponent.”

"Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate" is the name given to the Georgia vs. Georgia Tech football rivalry.

Tech UGA is one of the best rivalries out there....when they are on equal footing. It's trended like LSU Tulane. Used to be a big deal in the past, but means nothing now.

If you are under 25 or don't spend any time in Georgia you don't understand this game. It is WAY bigger than most think. All UGA I know will tell you quickly that UF and UT might be bigger games in the conference picture but GT is the game you most want to win. People, especially on here, get big games and true hated rivals mixed up. Bama and AU could both be 0-11 and it would still be the biggest game to the fans.

Dawgs are Tech's number one rival. It's one-sided. They have a complex.
