re: UGA vs USCe on paper

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.

I'm not going to beat a dead horse here, but I grew up in Georgia. I'm very familiar with UGA/GT. That game has lost an awful lot of intensity in the last 15 years. Richt has a lot to do with that, as does O'Leary leaving GT.

Forgive me if I'm not terribly impressed with a "road" win at Bobby Dodd, when half the 45k were wearing red and barking. You'll likely trivialize Thompson's accomplishments, as well.
