How many of you were even born yet when...........

Georgia won their "recent" national title in 1980?
I'm guessing probably not for most of you as it's been so long ago now.

The only reason I heard about it ... I was in $EC country (Alabama), and my aunt/uncle/cousins on one side of the family are UGag fans.
But, I didn't care.

I was 27 years old and remember it well. The Clemson - Georgia rivalry was always my favorite. Contrary to the opinion of many here, I believe Georgia has a good program (good; not great)and will always be a formidable opponent. That being said, I predict a victory for our Tigers on September 4th. My prediction - Clemson 24 - Georgia 17. Go Tigers!

but for a (blazed) Kevin Butler 63 yd fg against us. Just as our 81 championship would not have have happened had not Donald Iguebueke booted a 58 yarder for us. Great games and memories!

Which game are you talking about in 81? Ooglies only scored three points. They had 9 turnovers. Yes, I was at that game. I was working at the Charleston Naval Shipyard the last time the pups won a Natty.

I was about to start my career in the nuclear business with a brand new baby boy. I’m retired now after a 40 year career and have teenage grandchildren. That should help put it in perspective.
