ATHENS, Ga. — One week ago and 100 miles to the east, the heavens doused Augusta, Georgia, with enough cold, hard rain to postpone the Masters. On Saturday, blue skies and gentle warm breezes enveloped Athens for the University of Georgia’s spring football game. The Dawgs, in other words, stay winning.
The calendar says April, but the feel in Athens was September. As the Bulldogs prepared for the culmination of their spring practice, camp chairs and coolers dotted campus walks and fraternity house front yards all over town.
