uga @ Tech for 2021 COFH

[SteamWhistle]

Dwags honor what would’ve been our home game any way. When it was canceled last year was some talk of maybe UGA getting the home game they would’ve lost.

They voted not to play us. So I don't give a crap.

uga, UF, UK, and USC(e) ADs all voted to play their OoC rivalries. Bama and the rest of the $EC outvoted them. Either way, there was never any doubt we were going to have our home game against them this year.

It was 13-1 for conference only. USCe being the one that wanted to play their rivalry game. uga ducked us and they can laugh at that all they want given our respective records. But that doesn’t change the fact that they ducked us.

One SEC president voted against conference-only schedule and it wasn't Eli Capilouto

Today, SEC presidents voted to adopt a conference-only schedule for the 2020 season, which eliminates in-state rivalries like the Governor’s Cup. According to a new report, only one president voted against it, and it wasn’t Eli Capilouto. South Carolina Board of Trustees member Chuck Allen told...

Just one more to remember what it felt like... 2016. When I played at Ga, we were told. " They only remember November" Fla, Aub and GT. GT vs UGA is a Huge game. My SR year 1984, we lost at home. It was horrible. Its still etched in my memory. This game is still the biggest game on the schedule. Maybe not for the uga fans that buy their hat at walmart, but fans who can read understand its still HATE. I will judge the current staff on their ability to compete w the SEC team up the road. November 27th ( My Birthday ) is right around the corner. I plan on being in the RV lot and hopefully watching some real Student Athletes win.

That's the president's vote that finalized it. I'll have to dig up the article but in the initial proposal, the ADs voted and the 4 with ACC rivalries all voted to keep the game on the schedule. The presidents vote was to ratify the submitted proposal.

The president of uga is still them. I stand by my original argument.

My original post stipulated ADs, not presidents. See below.

Love that pic, but By our home game I meant it would’ve been our home game this season. We would’ve played at UGA last year, so I was getting at this season would’ve been our home game, but UGA missed a home game vs us so they might’ve wanted it back.

They did. It didn't matter.

No. ONLY USCe voted to play their outside rivalry. Kentucky, Florida, and uga all voted to be conference only.

good to see you're still around. What's the other son up to? Or do you have three?

That was the presidents (official) vote. The ADs voted earlier and 4-5 of them voted to play. It was reported in a tweet at the time and there was a brief news snippet on it and then the Presidents went in unison to support the conference with the exception of USC(e), who stood on principle. No danger od uga standing on principle.

Justin is married and living in Lynchburg VA. Working w International Paper. He out kicked his coverage . Will is a strength coach at Middle Tennessee. He loves working w the SA's. Both are healthy and happy ! Also both are much smarter than their dad. They got out.

Not sure I get the whole "they ducked us" regarding UGag this past season. I'm sure after beating us handily the last 3 years, they weren't sitting there thinking "we must duck Tech"

Nobody thinks they “ducked” Tech because they were scared to play. But the fact is they voted not to play. In a year with wild practice schedules while they had a question mark at QB before the year even started they took the safe bet. Maybe they thought an all SEC schedule would look good enough to get them into the playoff. Regardless of why, they didn’t want to play.

This bears repeating. The ADs in the initial vote were much more divided in playing OoC games. The 4 with ACC rivals all voted to play us. They were voted down. The proposition presented to the university presidents, who had final say, emphasized that not playing ANY OoC games would be better for COVID control. The idea presented was that ALL SEC schools would be on the same protocols, and not reliant on other conferences to have the same protocols. The presidents voted overwhelmingly to support the plan presented. The coaches and ADs at the SEC schools affected wanted the games for the revenue they bring.

And it also bears repeating that it doesn’t matter if the coaches and ADs wanted to play. The schools, including UGA, voted no. So they didn’t play.
