We'll just have to agree to disagree. Yes, I hate losing to Tech. And yes, if our coaches lose to Tech they're gone. But if you go to Columbia you feel the hatred for us just like you do in Tech and SC means very little to me other than the '07 game.

I want to beat UF, AU, and UT every year. I'm from extreme NWGA, so I'm amongst many UT and AU fans.

Against Tech by decade:
'60s --> 6-4
'70s --> 7-3
'80s --> 7-3
'90s --> 7-3
'00s --> 8-2 (2 losses by an average of 7 pts)

I think there is a trend here.

And that, my friend, is where you're dead wrong. Tech lives and breathes 24/7 to beat UGA. In their fight song it says "drop a battle axe on georgia's head". Their fans chant "What's the good word? TO HELL WITH GEORGIA" "How bout them dawgs? PISS ON EM" even at games we're not playing them. They print up shirts and newspapers with THWG on it. We had to stop the rivalry in the early 1900s because some of our students derailed their train back to Atlanta. I've been to 11 SEC stadiums, a pac 10, a big 12, clemson, Jax over 10 times, several bowl games, SECCGs, etc. I've been around a lot of rival fanbases. NONE hold a candle to the hatred tech has for us.
