DAMN GOOD DAWG
The University of Georgia is graced with much tradition around its canine mascot, Uga. The line of pure white English bulldogs, for which there have been seven dogs to date, has been owned by the Frank W. "Sonny" Seiler family of Savannah, Ga., since Uga I first graced the campus in 1956. Uga's name is derived from the University of Georgia or "UGA". "Loran's Best" or Uga VII, (Shown on the left) was officially introduced on Saturday, August 30, 2008 at the Georgia Southern game, which UGA won, 45-21.

Uga VII not chosen, but Seiler says dog to suit up for opener

Athens -- At this point in the summer, Sonny Seiler will make only one promise: There will be an Uga VII and he will be on the field for Georgia's season opener against Georgia Southern.And even that pledge came with an asterisk.

Auburn vs. Georgia: The Deep South's Oldest Rivalry
Auburn and Georgia have met 111 times, as of 2007, in what is known as 'the Deep South's Oldest Rivalry' in the sport of college football. The Auburn-Georgia rivalry is unlike the annual contest between Auburn and Alabama; It is a true competitive interstate civil war, brother vs. brother. Where as the Iron Bowl is about setting an annual family dispute. Of Auburn's major rivals whose games were once played at neutral sites, Georgia is the ONLY school to come to Auburn without argument.Click Here For More.
