So it's wrong to harp that Jax. is an hour from Gainesville, but perfectly fine when others say Atlanta is "home" for UGA?

Well the Dawgs do own that decrepit North Avenue Trade School stadium in Atlanta. Even tv commentators call it “Athens West”. So I guess that qualifies as “home” if we really wanted to claim that rusty old place. Not sure we do. It’s really really UGLY and should probably be condemned

Who says ATL is a home for UGA? If you want to say we will have a home field advantage against most teams we play in ATL then fine that has merit for a variety of reasons. None of which have to do wiht playing UF in jacksonville.

And again, you continue to bury your head in the sand and ignore that the game is about a hundred years of tradition, beign at the beach, enjoying the coast, giving SGA dawgs their best chance to attend a game, golfing, a bonus vacation, etc as much as it is about the game between the endzones. You lose every bit of that playing in atlanta.
