@myth6727 Cont... Though I could see concerns about rowdy fans - however if Florida and Florida State can play in each others home, then why not Florida/Georgia - besides even of the game is in Jacksonville and Florida is the designated home team that year the Gators Football still counts it as a road game. You all know both teams fans travel well, so I have no doubt Athens and Gainesville would be an issue.

The other option is like you said alternate between JVille and Ga Dome.

@myth6727 I just watch clips from the 94 game at the swamp and it was so loud it was awesome. I've yet to find any clips from the 95 game in Athens, but I bet it was electric.

I thought the only reason it wasn't played in either of the fans home stadium was a money issue, but according the this piece it's apparently not - at least UGA doesn't make that much. Not sure Florida's profit on the game in Jacksonville. But I'd love to see a Florida/Georgia matchup in a home and home. Cont...

As a Dawg fan, I think what we should do about this to end all disputes is to switch off between playing in Jacksonville and Atlanta. If the Dawgs are home it's in the Georgia Dome, if the Gators are home lets do it at the landing by the St. John's river. Many will ask why then not play it in The Swamp or Between The Hedges? Well its very simple the Gator fans and Dawg fans such as myself are too passionate about their teams, there is probably some sort of security threat lol

@jzh11 sorry about that UGA does have 2 heisman winners, I forgot about frank sinkwich 1942. UGA has 8 SEC titles unless u want to count the shared titles before the title game was made. UGA has 1 national championship. yea great game last night.

@ProZack91488 UGA has 2 Heisman Winners...and those stats (titles and Heismans) are irrelevant to the subject of the game between the schools but i will say GREAT game tonight, man oh man so many emotions in the stands

go dawgs

[ProZack91488]

@jzh11 what about Heisman winners UF=3 UGA=1. BCS titles UF=3 UGA=1 SEC titles UF=9 UGA=8. let me ask u something, how old are u? since I have been a gator, UF has gone 18-3 against UGA. so.....what UGA use to beat up UF before I was even born. They have been great since I have been alive.

@ProZack91488 dude, check up on your facts please.. longest winning streak... both teams have the longest of 7 straight but Georgia has 3 six straight wins compared to Floridas one (98'-03').... biggest win= UGA owns the top 5 biggest wins in the series and has 13 shutouts compared to Floridas 5.... just think about it real quick.... take away this last run of the gators in 1990 the record was 43-22 UGA.... haha so really Florida is just playing catch up nothing special

Go Dawgs

I wasent alive in 1942, but I was in 1995. since u like history then u must know that UF has the longest winning streak in series, and biggest win in 2008. the only other thing uga has is the series lead, that hasent been getting smaller. what do u mean last year of glory?

[ProZack91488]

yea I know, I wasent alive in 1942. I was in 1995. since u ike looking up history then u know that UF has the longest winning streak in the series, and biggest game in 2008. the only other think uga has is the series lead that has been getting smaller. UGA hasent beat UF 2 straight since I have been a Gator fan. what do u mean last year of glory?
