The best suggestion is the Home-and-Home series. That way we get the Gators Between-the-Hedges every other year. But Georgia’s boosters and alum are to short sighted for that to happen. They would rather the Dogs be dominated yearly in Gainesville as their 2-13 record the past 15 years illustrates. So Coach Richt and the Dogs are stuck with an away game every year against our best opponent. And real Georgia fans are stuck watching our annual loss on TV. I’m sure the Urban Meyer and the Gators love this situation and keep thinking “it is true, there is a sucker born every minute.”

“And real Georgia fans are stuck watching our annual loss on TV”……What? Are you insane? The “boosters and alum” the actual “real” Georgia fans WILL travel to the game and show support for the great tradition in JAX. It is a neutral site. We don’t lose because the pseudo-fans like yourself in South Georgia that never attended any university can’t afford to take the trip to JAX. We lose because of personnel and ultra-conservative coaching that sputters in the red zone.

Shannon: Actually I have a Masters from UGA and attend all the home games. I love the Dogs and Herschel was my childhood sports idol. Now if the Dogs have such poor personnel, why are there over 40 Bulldogs currently playing in the NFL. I also don’t think Coach Richt is conservative at all. I think Coach Richt will retire as the best Dog coach ever. But he will also retire with a horrendous record against the Gators because the game is a home game for the Gators EVERY year! Over the next 20 years under Coach Richt, the Dogs will go 3-17 against the Mighty Gators if the game is left in Florida. But it seems like many UGA boosters and fans would rather have a weekend to party than win. I think Athens is a much better place to watch a Dogs game. And as Coach Russell said, “there is nothing like being a Dog in Athens when the Bulldogs win.”

I think that the playing in JAX is a home game for the Gators is a little overplayed. Somebody please go back and do a little research on the teams records based on the game (or open week) scheduled the week before the Cocktail Party. Pre-‘90, I think that you will see that Florida traditionally played Auburn the Saturday before the Georgia-Florida game and the Dawgs played Kentucky, had an open date or played someone like Temple or Wm & Mary. The game was also played the first Saturday in November. Due to changes in the SEC and scheduling, since 1990 the Gators have had a significant number of off weeks prior to the cocktail party. The Dawgs have had to play an SEC opponent the week before the game almost every year.

Some years the off week probably didn’t mean squat because of talent difference. But in years when the teams were close, it makes a huge difference especially at this point in the season, with having healthy bodies that can stand up in a sixty minute war.

Also, prior to Spurrier and 1990, Florida Field “The Swamp” was an artificial surface. Therefore, it was an adjustment for Florida’s players to play on grass in Jacksonville. Since 1990, that advantage for the Dawgs no longer exists.

The game is truly a neutral site as far as crowd noise and atmosphere. Where Florida has the advantage is in travel and less changes to their practice schedule. Having the off week while Georgia has a game the week before only amplifies this advantage.

This all changes in 2007 when the Dawgs (currently although subject to change since Dawgs are looking for 12th opponent for next season) have an off week before the cocktail party and the Gators have to travel to Kentucky the week prior to the game in Jacksonville.

Moving this game to home and home, IMO would be a big mistake for the Dawgs. Until the fans learn how to maintain an intimidating home field atmosphere for all games (including the Vandys and MSUs)in Sanford Stadium, we would probably only play into the Gators hands by going home and home. (Although Mark Richt does have a tantalizing record on opponents’ home fields)

I would take the 40,000+ passionate GA fans that attend the cocktail party over the 85,000+ in Sanford Stadium. It would be different if we could take that same passion of the 40,000+ and amplify it to the 85,000+ in Athens. I believe that if that happened then Sanford would be truly an intimidating venue. But until then we will have to deal with the home fans that are more passionate about complaining than they are about making some noise to help the team.

And you can call me a blind homer, but I BELIEVE THAT THE BULLDOGS WILL OVERCOME THE GATORS AND THEIR OFF WEEK AND THEIR TRAVEL ADVANTAGE THIS SATURDAY IN JACKSONVILLE.

No Andy, “real Georgia fans” are in the stands cheering on their team. Just like the “real Georgia fans” that drive 4-6 hours from South Georgia 6 times a year to cheer on their team. If you cannot make one trip over an hour during the season I question you calling yourself a “real Georgia fan.”

To follow up on G8R H8R’s point below, this is probably why the 40,000 that are there actually making noise during the game…we have left the “real Georgia fans” at home in their recliners.

G8R H8 R “It would take the 40,000+ passionate GA fans that attend the cocktail party over the 85,000+ in Sanford Stadium. It would be different if we could take that same passion of the 40,000+ and amplify it to the 85,000+ in Athens. I believe that if that happened then Sanford would be truly an intimidating venue. But until then we will have to deal with the home fans that are more passionate about complaining than they are about making some noise to help the team.”

Here’s a thought for this game…why not start making it fair to Georgia, once & for all have this game every other year in Atlanta? I bet the several hundred thousand Gator alumni in the Atlanta area would be cool with that. Why is it fair that Georgia has to travel 8-9 hrs. every year with no bye week, while the Gators get in their own cars to drive 45 minutes coming off a Bye week.

Someone, please explain how this is FAIR any year? Keep Jacksonville if you must, but it should be every ohter year in Atlanta at the Georgia Dome. Why not let the Dawgs travel 45 minutes for once?

C’mon Damon Evans, get moving on this. I am sick and tired of being a tired road team every single yera. And you wonder why we’ve won only 2 times in the last 15 years. Ridiculous already and Georgia fan who thinks having this game in Jax. every year is a good idea for your team is an idiot.

I can’t think of any name better than the one we have. Why don’t other schools have to deal with egomaniac presidents that take delight in treating the adoring and loyal fans of such as beloved institution as the University of Georgia like they are underage and irresponsible? Like Ron White said.. Don’t you love it when someone tries to tack a solution to a problem that has nothing to do with the problem. Campus getting trashed has nothing to do with alcohol and everything to do with respect for the campus. You treat people like adults, and they’ll act like adults. You get what you give Adams. You don’t respect the fans, we won’t respect you.

The Atlanta and UGA Greatness Bowl. This whole article can be a suck up to all the UGA fans/readers who need to be cheered up because their whole lives revolve around Georgia football and that is why they only won one natl championship ever and another Herschel will never come along again. But whatever will make the readers happy, let’s call it.

Please, Please, Please! Stop with the Home-and-Home series nonsense. Has nobody paid any attention to the fact that we just don’t play as well at home as we do on the road?…..(need proof?, just look at our record vs. UT the past 4 games, or look back to the last time UF came to Athens to play us in our own backyard…..wow, was that ever ugly).

Or if you don’t want to look back so far, just look at this season at home. We barely beat a crp-a* MSU team a few days ago (due to an amazing, nail-in-the-coffin type play by one of our best Defensive players in the waning minutes of the game).

We lost the previous 2 home games, one to Vandy (it still stings admitting to that), due to less than mediocre play (and coaching) on our part. Notice the way in which we lost; it almost exactly mimicked the final drive of MSU, except that we didn’t make the spectacular defensive play to seal our victory. We just bent (over, if you will), and broke, as well.

Before our two losses, we pulled out a narrow victory against a very good JV team from the University of Colorado. Our defensive coaching staff piled on the praise for their offensive scheme, but I haven’t seen any other team have much difficulty with it. And if you’ll remember, UC was on a final drive to win that game, and we had to pull an interception out of our collective a**es to seal that victory.
Again, it was a very good play, but it shouldn’t have been necessary for our victory against a team that had played so poorly thus far in the season.

Meanwhile, away at USC we had a convincing win. And while the score (away) against the Rebels was pretty darn close, the game was a bit more decisive than the MSU one (and it turned out much better than either Vandy or UT).

Anyway, sorry for rambling on so much, but Home-and-Home against UF would not have the desired effect most Dawg fans think it would. Someone who wrote earlier had it right….. our pitiful record over the past decade or so against UF is NOT due to where the game has been played. It’s been due to a lack of team focus, poor coaching schemes/adjustments at halftime, and flat out intimidation from the UF team (winning once in, what, 13 or so years will do that to a group of kids, regardless of how tough they are every other week).

Go Dawgs! Play tough like I know you’re capable of (especially both Lines up front), and we really can do this. I’m expecting a good game, despite our problems so far this season.

By the way, Dan, that’s an absolutely perfect idea for what to call the game/weekend if we have to change it…..

To recap his comment yesterday afternoon:

“By Dan We should pull a Prince and just go by a symbol of a cocktail or martini glass and call it “The Game formerly known as the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party”. Everyone’s happy”

It’d be hard to pick which cocktail to agree on, but I love the “Game formerly known as…” comment. Aside from leaving the title the way it currently is, your idea would be the way to go…..Adams be damned. Just what the hell does he think this is going to accomplish, anyway?

Honestly, I think I drank less before this game while a student, because I had further to walk to get to the stadium than I did for any home game. And after the game, I was almost always Indoors (thus negating the title of the Weekend). Eh, whatever…..Go Dawgs.

Here’s a thought, not that anybody will actually read this. Gainesville to Jacksonville is 71 miles. Athens to Atlanta is 73 miles. If this is truly a “neutral” site, why not alternate the game between Jacskonville and the Georgia Dome each year?
