Bulldog fans, how do you feel about this? Are you hoping for an original design in the future or are you content with sharing?

They copied our power g.
Prior to it, they had a football shaped G.
Next?

"The Georgia "G" Helmet
In 1963 after becoming the Bulldogs' Head Football Coach, Vince Dooley redesigned the football uniform choosing a red helmet with a black "G" on a white background as the dominant feature of the new uniform for the 1964 season.
He discussed with his staff that a forward-looking "G" would be an appropriate emblem for the helmet of the Georgia team. Dooley had just hired John Donaldson, former Georgia player from 1945 to 1948, as backfield coach. John was keen on the idea of a new image and volunteered his wife, Anne, who had a BFA in commercial art from UGA to design a logo for the new Georgia helmet with the general specifications Dooley had outlined. Dooley accepted Anne's original "G" which fit his vision for a forward look to Georgia's new emblem.
Since the Georgia "G"- though different in design and color- was similar to Green Bay's "G", Coach Dooley thought it best to clear the use of Georgia's new emblem with the NFL team. Athletic Director Joel Eaves called for permission which was granted. However, since its inception in 1961, the Green Bay "G" has been redesigned several times and now looks like Georgia's original 1964 "G." Georgia is proud that the Packers apparently liked the special nuances of the Bulldogs' forward-looking "G."
Georgia's oval "G", eventually replacing Georgia's old block "G" as the official UGA symbol, has stood the test of time. It made its first appearance in the opening game in 1964 and was an immediate hit with the Georgia fans, especially after Dooley's first three teams were so successful--highlighted by the 1966 SEC Championship."
We got permission, but they've since changed to copy ours!

Those are two different logos.
The one on the left is yellow and green. The one on the right is red and black.
Moron.

There’s a lot of repeat threads on this board. UGA’s logo vs Green Bay’s might be the worst of them.
And I say this as I have a to UGA and UF.

Pretty sure Green Bay morphed their logo to look like UGAs. Odds are a college had their logo prior to some scrub arse nfl team.

It doesn't bother me. Why does it bother you?

We don't need another logo. Ours is classic.
If you want New Coke, go ahead and be a weirdo. I like the classics.

Yeah. I'm with you. I don't understand why it seems to bother other fan bases so much. It is pretty much brought up every off season. It's strange, really, how they seem to care about it so much.

They are both Gs. Retards like you might not be able to tell all of the differences.

I approve of this message.

Will you continue to be our bitch for the foreseeable future?...Yes

Georgia should remove the "G" and put a paw print on the sides of their helmets. Then they mimic Clemson in at least 1 way. ????????
