Georgia football is gearing up for one of its most emotionally charged games of the season as the Bulldogs prepare to host Georgia Tech at Sanford Stadium on Friday night. The Bulldogs have the chance to extend their winning streak against the Yellow Jackets to seven games.
Given UGA’s dominance in recent years, it’s no surprise that Georgia Tech has a strong dislike for the Bulldogs. This animosity is certainly mutual, although it appears to be expressed differently by each team.
Yellow Jackets head coach Brent Key expressed his disdain for Georgia over the summer, which comes across quite humorously from a Georgia fan’s perspective.
“There’s nothing I hate more in the world. It’s probably the only thing I hate,” Key said, as reported by dawgnation.com. “When I say hate, I truly despise everything about it. I really do.”
In contrast, Kirby Smart had a different take on the rivalry while discussing the upcoming game.
“I don’t think you get real emotional about things like that,” Smart stated. “I think you’re a much better coach when you remain composed and focus on teaching your players what it takes to win the game. It will be an emotional game, but I don’t let it affect me.”
