Now, I know this SHOULD be a completely obvious no brainer, but some people have different mindsets. I know if it was a similar situation for UGA and Florida was playing tech, I'd root my heart out for florida. Tech is our biggest rival, always has been, and always will be. But it wouldn't surprise me in the least bit if most of the younger generation of dawg fans who have seen UF beat us semi-regularly would pull for tech over them (which is crazy, IMO).

Sooo, like the title says, who are you pulling for?

And please, any mentions of asteroid, sinkhole, stadium cave in, etc. aren't original or witty. Just answer the question.

Like the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Taters are our rivals, I hope y'all beat the taters.

Although this is for selfish reasons too.

After you beat them, you'll still be ranked in the Top 10, most likely ahead of us, so the next week when we beat you, it will be viewed as a more quality win and we move up higher.

Then clemson is going to go on a tear through the epic gauntlet that is acc football... ...and will move back up into the Top 12 by the time we play them. So then we'll beat them, and hopefully be undefeated at that time, which will secure us in the late season BCSCG picture.

We might even go to the SECCG and lose, but if that's our only loss and it's to an undefeated Bama team, then we still have a shot at the BCSCG, if a couple other conference contenders lose as well. I mean, Bama already proved you don't have to win your conference, let alone your division to play for and win a BCSCG.

I wish tie was still an option, but I definitely dont want to play UGA after a loss in Athens.

Yall have only beat UF 5 times since 1990. 5-18.

No wonder dawg fans aren't concerned about losing 3 straight. They're desensitized

This thread has pleased me.

And Cockopotamus, we've beaten UF 2 in a row, split the last 4, split the last 6, and are 4-5 going back to 2004. I'd say that the series has been fairly even the last decade or so.

Not to derail the thread, but why does it matter what Spurrier did against goff and donnan going back to 1990? No one on either UF or UGA's staff was around then. Hell, our current OC was probably only like 10 years old in 1990. I'm sure whenever UGA fans try to tell you all about UGA/SC history, you're quick to point out how well yall have done recently, am I right? So let's all play by the same rules in that regard

UGA.

Rather play a UGA team coming off a win and an emotional high than a team backed into a corner.

I will never pull for Clemson over anyone no matter the circumstances.

Definitely pulling for Georgia. I don't think I could ever pull for Clemson in anything.

Yea I wasn't trying to talk shite I just took the "younger generation" to mean anyone under 40.

If your definition of the younger generation only starting watching football in the 2000s then I guess its more semi-regular since Spurrier left, 4-7.

Anyway i'll be pulling for yall against Clemson

I'm part of the younger generation you mentioned, I was raised in Georgia and many of my hometown friends ended up going to UGA so you'd think I'd want Clemson to win but four years at USC taught me that Georgia is to be disliked while Clemson is to be hated. They're completely different rivalries if you could even call the Georgia game a rivalry to begin with.

Scale of teams I like to beat/see lose:

Clemson-10
UGA-4
UT-2

CockInYourEar explained it pretty well. I want Georgia to beat Clemson so they'll be ranked higher when we play them and Clemson will probably regain a ridiculously inflated ranking by the end of the season. Clemson beating UGA doesn't do much for us.

I would be shocked if anyone seriously answered Clemson.

Yeah I mean common sense would say that. But I know there's been a lot of animosity lately from SC towards UGA, especially among the younger crowd. And like I said, on UGA's end, a lot of people in their 20s or 30s think (incorrectly) that UF is our biggest rival. This game would compare from a UGA point of view to UF playing georgia tech. I'd pull for UF to win by 50, but I know many many people who would pull for tech. Which is mind blowing.
