I remember back in the 70’s Richmond played at Georgia. With the home field advantage, UGA pulled off a win. Ah. found it. October 29, 1977 Georgia 23, Richmond 7. It was pretty much the highlight of a 5-6 season.

Who was that guy a few years ago that was whining about the SEC teams not playing out of region? Georgia whipped Oregon in the opening game of the season that year as well. 27-16.

I could have swore that was discussed this season, when UGA went out to Tempe to play Arizona State. But anyway...

Being completely honest about it, I don’t think that UGA (or anyone else in the SEC) playing outside of the South in their nonconf. schedule is reallly a bad thing. Most years, you have a tough enough of a schedule in conference play so it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to schedule a road opponent that often.
