Vince Dooley coached Georgia for more than two decades. He is very familiar with the history between the Bulldogs and Gators.

A history buff (he has a master's degree on the subject), the coaching legend talks about his personal collection of artifacts and the gridiron clashes that still matter with the AJC columnist Jeff Schultz and Channel 2 Action News sports director Zach Klein on their "We Never Played the Game" podcast.

Dooley reveals some personal history about the rivalries with Florida, Auburn and Georgia Tech, plus his thoughts on second-year coach Kirby Smart and Georgia's chances of winning a national championship. Listen in (and subscribe, rate and review):
