Georgia playing Miss St always has a special place

in my heart.

I didn't grow up a Georgia fan. Moved to Georgia from Long Island, NY when I was 9. We didn't follow college football much (although I remember when I was 4, my dad talking about Herschel, but I digress). I was a Jets fan, sadly.

I sort of slowly began following college football over the years, and hopped on the Tech bandwagon during their shared NC year.

I started at UGA in '94, but of course the '94 season sucked. Then, in '95, I began to try to get more into it, but Edwards and Bobo got hurt, so I found it hard to truly invest (again, I didn't grow up a fan).

In '97, I committed to enjoying the game day atmosphere and the team, and when we annihilated Miss St 47-0, I was hooked. Of course we lost to UTjr next, but it didn't matter. I have truly bled red and black ever since.

Anyway, this is a long, boring way to say that playing MSU always reminds me of the time I became a Bulldog through and through.
