UGA fans are kidding themselves if they think it's not a rivalry
Yes, its a rivalry.... it just doesn't have the meaning it once did.
Georgia has won 14 of the last 17 meetings. Tech did go on a 3-game win streak in 1998, 1999, and 2000.... but prior to that blip, Georgia won 26 out of 34.
Put all that together, and UGA is 40-11 in the last 51 meetings.
It's hard for a rivalry to keep a fervor when one program wins 80% of the games over a a period of half a century.

And somehow they have a more recent NC than y’all do

You don't have to be a boomer to remember the 90s.

Been weird for awhile now. Both schools have had bad stretches then great runs but neither seems to have it at the same time. 2012 was the closest we've had to a top tier match up for awhile. During Meyer's years he destroyed them, then Muschamp and Jumbo took over the rivalry.

From 1990-2003, the Gators and the Seminoles met 16 consecutive times in which BOTH teams were ranked in the AP Top 25..... From 1990-2000, they met 13 consecutive times in which BOTH were ranked in the AP Top 10..... Six times during this stretch BOTH were ranked in the AP Top 5.
When did they play twice in a season? Bowl games?

Give the new guy a chance, he's going to re emphasize FB and Recruiting in the Metro ATL
GT is trying to recover from an 11 yr mistake of running the friggin Tripl-Oh in a place as loaded with talent as the Metro Atl Area is
We don't expect to beat out Clemson, Bama, UGA very often if ever, but if we can keep future NFL talent from GA HSs away from places like SCarolina, Kentucky, Tenn, Duke, UVA, UNC
If we can do that, we can build GT to a consistent 9-10 win Program and hopefully elevate the Rivalry to where it is part of the Nat'l CFB discussion
If Collins can Recruit like I think he can he'll help you guys by weakening Tenn, Auburn, SCarolina, Kentucky by taking away GA HS talent that ends up competing against you guys, but then you probably won't dominate COFH like you have in the past
The way Fromm is playing you guys need to be on upset alert, I know, not likely, but I gotta always be optimistic

Yes what a great series/rivalry this was. In terms of stakes only Bama-LSU has had that level of stakes since in a yearly series, though FSU-UF was more consistently high stakes.
Also those teams really don’t like each other but right now it’s an afterthought in the national picture.

They played football in the 90s? LSU fans are convinced the sport started in 2000.

Agreed. I think Collins is the real deal. Loved him at UF as DC.

Florida is still getting players and has a good coaching staff, Florida State better keep living in the past, i would trade a bucket of piss for their future!

I know, that really brought a lot to the topic of conversation, huh!!!

Those instate Florida games were incredible. I always remembered how dominant FSU was in the early 2000s in every game except Miami. I wasn't old enough to remember the "wide [direction]" games of the 80s but I assume it was a similar feel. Miami was just in their heads

Kind of like UG / G Tech.
We can't help it that GT doesn't keep up their end by not being ranked in the top-25.

Those games against Miami were actually in 1991 and 1992.

If there was ever "Must See TV" for sports it was this game.
