Squash that Bug!


Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate

This weekend Georgia will take on their in-state rival Georgia Tech. As you may or may not know the nickname for the game between the two is known as Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate. Georgia Tech has a Message Board called Stingtalk where the students, alumni, and other people can talk about Georgia Tech or who they will be playing on Saturday, things like that. Some of the people from Georgia Tech aren't too happy with the outcome of the game the last several years. Here are some things they had to say about Georgia.

History

For the past 6 years Georgia has beaten Georgia Tech. I know I said in one of my other posts that we needed to throw all the records out, but I think these records can stay as they are!

Injuries

Brannan Southerland has been seen in a walking boot because of a left foot injury, but he is expected to play. Another Georgia Bulldog that is not expected to play on Saturday or ever again is Jason Johnson. Jason Johnson is the tailback for the Bulldogs. Last Tuesday in practice he suffered a spinal injury that the doctors thought was just a "stinger" but it turned out to be worse. When they did some tests on it, the tests showed that he had a narrowing of his spinal column. He has been advised to no longer compete in contact sports.

Aye Aye Captain

Mark Richt has announced that Brannan Southerland, Brian Mimbs, Geno Atkins, and Rennie Curran would be captains for the Georgia Tech game.

Kickoff

Kickoff is set for 3:30 on Saturday at Bobby Dodd Stadium. ABC will televise the game and Larry Munson will be traveling to Bobby Dodd Stadium to call the game. This will be the first away game the Larry Munson has called.
