With the Georgia Bulldogs having conquered Georgia Tech 15 times in the last 19 meetings of the state rivals and Georgia also having won the last nine games played at the Yellow Jackets’ Bobby Dodd Stadium/Grant Field, many people are saying Tech-Georgia isn’t the rivalry it used to be.
And that’s likely true to a certain extent. Ever since Georgia Tech pulled out of the Southeastern Conference in 1964, the Bulldogs’ clash with the Jackets, of course, hasn’t meant anything as far as counting in a league championship race and, yes, a rivalry seems much less ballyhooed when one team dominates the other … as Georgia has done against Tech in the 2000s and also in the 1990s when the Dawgs fashioned a 7-game winning streak against The Enemy from North Avenue.
