quote: Dear Tech fans, I am going to apologize for two things in advance: First I'd like to apologize for any misconceptions you have concerning Georgia Southern. We are NOT Georgia State. Nobody wants to be them, they suck. We are Georgia Southern. Our mascot is the Bald Eagle and his name is Freedom. Our mascot is NOT some endangered kitty cat that is reminiscent of an minority activist organization popular in the 60's. Our colors are Blue and White. Not some pansy royal blue a pimp in your downtown area might wear. Our colors are navy and white and our uniform scheme is similar to Alabama, except in blue. We no longer run PJ's option. We run a hybrid pistol set and we have a QB that can fly and pass. This will NOT be the offense that faced UF last year. Finally the last misconception is the most concerning to me. Most of us hate thUGA with a passion. There are some folks in Statesboro that haven't seen the light but the majority of our fans root for two favorite teams every Saturday: Georgia Southern and whoever is playing thUGA so please refrain from that sort of blasphemy when addressing Southern fans. Thank You. The second thing is this: We are coming to Atlanta Saturday to collect a payout AND win this öööö game- not necessarily in that order so yall had better bring your "A" game. We play fast, we hit hard and we have had this game circled on our calendar for quite some time. That said, I can't wait to see the AJC Sunday morning. I may break my rule and actually have to go buy one. See you Saturday.

Signed,
