[QUOTE="Old South Stands, post: 265972, member: 1036"] I never, ever feel good about this game... It's usually very close, regardless of how well either team is doing. UGA rarely blows Tech out, even when there's an imbalance in talent. And I've witnessed two games where Tech has blown the Dawgs out (once as a major underdog in '84 and as the clear favorite in '90). Statistically speaking, Tech should have won a few more of these close matches over the years than it has. Given how close many of the games have been, statistically it doesn't make sense that the series is so lopsided and that we're winless at Grant Field since '99 (barring the Jasper Sanks fumble, that would be since '89). It may be psychological... Look at the Florida-UGA series since Spurrier first took over, and it's a similar thing. Maybe Georgia goes into Jacksonville playing not to lose, rather than playing to win. It may be similar for the Tech-UGA series. I pick Tech by 7< in a very scary field-position game with the occasional explosive big play -- but hoping more for a VT-type game, with Tech with a comfortable 2nd-half lead and Georgia maybe scoring junk touchdowns at the end. If UGA wins, it'll probably come off Blankenship's leg. [/QUOTE]
