Anyone else hoping we revive our rivalry


Dec 22, 2017, 1:04 AM

With UGA? I loved those games back when I was younger, mostly because I hate UGA, but man do I love to hate them. We are rivals in everything else and Clemson and Athens are closer to each other than either is to Atlanta or Columbia.

Yup, hope we renew it in a couple of weeks!

It will be fun watching us dismantle them on national television.

Seriously, I'd love to renew the rivalry but their fans are turds so I have reservations.

their fanbase behavior before, during, and after games, even easier to hate them than the Lamecocks.

No, crazy as that sounds, but no

I'd love to get a regular schedule with them...like maybe a home and home every 8-10 years or so. It should certainly be more than 8 times in 30+ years and not another game scheduled as far as the eye can see. And I'd much rather play them than all these times that we've played Auburn.

But playing Georgia for supremacy of that region doesn't do us as much good as playing a more regional/national rotation. We have a solid brand in Georgia and get a great deal of talent from there. But unless it becomes a perennial top 10 matchup, it won't have the national flair. And we've proven that we are recruiting more broadly now. We want to expand our brand and thats inter-regional games. Play Penn St home/home. Play ND more. Play Texas A&M/Tennessee/LSU etc. We don't need to go west of the Mississippi and make the same mistake that UGA did 10 years ago. But we should have a presence close to just about everywhere on the East Coast through near Texas.

Long post summed up....Unless that Clemson/UGA game was the season opener like it was the last 2 times, I think it would just get lost nationally as just another local ACC/SEC game.
