A fan remembers some of Georgia’s greatest wins and most painful defeats

Thanks Bill and I agree with your choices. I’d like to add one “dishonorable” mention: The Sugar Bowl against Texas was one of the most frustrating UGa games I have ever witnessed in person. My wife looked at me during the 2nd quarter and said it was like UGa didn’t want to be there (which was true and it showed). We had a room over Bourbon Street so I had to listen to Longhorn fans chant, “SEC, SEC, SEC” into the wee hours of the morning. At least we learned a lesson and showed up and ready to play in the past 2 bowl games against Baylor and Cincinnati. Go Dawgs!!!
Good list. However, Hot Rod knew about his scholarship before the ND game on Friday. He was not told after the game. He announced to the team that he was on scholarship.
I'm inclined to agree with the inclusion of the 2018 SECCG loss to Alabama over the loss in the natty. As disappointing as the natty loss was, I and I'm sure lots of other Dawgs fans took some solace in the fact that UGA was primed for a run the following year with payback on our mind. We saw Clemson come back from a gut-wrenching natty loss to Alabama to win it all and beat Alabama the following year. Why couldn't Georgia? And while it was the SECCG and not the natty, Georgia played like they had revenge on their minds and had Alabama on the ropes up 28-14. But we panicked, played tentative, choked, whatever you want to call it, and let them off the hook. And that team to our west has lived rent free in the Dawg's heads ever since.
