Your own fans have been known to buy GT season tickets just for this game. UGA playing at Bobby Dodd us technically an away game, but it's hardly a "true road start." W-B is the toughest place Mason will have ever started by game time. You can't really argue against that.

Yes it is. It's a high pressure in-state rivalry game that was started under less than ideal circumstances with Murray having just gone down. UGA fans buying season tickets is a symptom of the intensity of the rivalry and the apathy of Tech fans to their other games. Tech fans are far from apathetic about the UGA game. Trivializing that experience is dumb.

It is, but Mason is also way more prepared for that environment than he would have been last season.

Yes it is. It's not Death Valley at 8 pm but it's a true road start.

No one here is arguing that. We're just saying that playing a road game at your in-state rival is a "true road start". I can't believe this is even a discussion to be honest.
