Georgia collars new Uga mascot

ATHENS, Ga. -- The University of Georgia introduced "Boom", their new 10-month-old English bulldog as Uga XI during a pregame ceremony at Sanford Stadium prior to the Bulldogs' spring game Saturday afternoon.

The "transfer of power" as it was described in the stadium, was given as Uga X's collar was taken off, and placed on Boom to a roar of cheers and "BOOOOM!" from the crowd in Athens.
