The recent highs are much higher obviously, but I'll always have a special place in my heart for 02.


As a child watching those Herschel led teams, I never thought the Dawgs would not be good.

Then Goff.

I think for dudes my age, 2002 was extremely special. It was a return to form. No more talking about "when we were kids". I'll always be grateful to Richt for bringing back the winning to the University, no matter how I feel about his legacy overall, or how often I called for his termination later in his career.

He was the right dude at the right time, and while Donnan did reverse the losing trend that Goff left behind, 2002 was the true beginning for a new era of UGA football.

For sure. I was born in 1970 and my interest as a fan coincided with those early 80 years. I assumed we would always be at or near the top of the pile and then the Goff years came. I still had hope going into every season that we would suddenly be at the top again but the years just kept passing by. 2002 was special and broke 12-15 years of frustration for those of us who were around for the early 80s.
