Uga VII may be laid to rest before Saturday's Kentucky game

Athens -- There is a chance Uga VII will be laid to rest at Sanford Stadium before Georgia kicks off against Kentucky Saturday night. If so, however, it will not be a public ceremony.

The Bulldogs are scheduled to kick off against Kentucky at 7:45 p.m. Saturday night. The gates at the stadium do not open to the general public until two hours before kickoff.

All of Georgia's mascots are interred in a mausoleum built into the southwest corner inside Sanford Stadium.
