Clean Old-Fashioned Hate
From a Tech Student​

The Georgia Tech football program first played the University of Georgia in 1893. Tech defeated Georgia 28-6 marking the first-ever victory for the school. Facing imminent defeat, the angry Georgia fans threw stones and other debris at the Tech players. This poor treatment by the Georgia faithful gave birth to the rivalry now known as "Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate". This rivalry has spanned generations, and the fire still burns like it first did in 1893, even though the schools are no longer in the same conference.

Before tech even fielded a football team, a rivalry with UGA had already been stablished. On February 20th, 1892, Tech students attended a game between Auburn and Georgia to cheer for the Tigers, or, more likely, against the hated Bulldogs. The student body appointed a committee to suggest unifying colors to identify Tech fans in attendance. The committee decided on Old Gold and White, and close to 200 Tech students wore our beloved colors to the game. True gold fabric was hard to come by at the time, so avid Tech fans supported the team by wearing the closest thing they could - yellow-colored jackets (note the name).

Many of you may be aware of our beloved mascot, the Ramblin' Wreck. Tradition holds that any freshman who touches the Reck between convocation in the fall and the last day of classes in the spring will not only be cursed with bad luck for their college career, but will also cause the football team to lose to UGA that year. Georgia Tech's student newspaper The Technique publishes a special "To Hell With Georgia" issue on the week of the game with u[sic]ga.

References to Georgia in Georgia Tech Fight Song/Cheers:

Up with the white and gold,
down with the red and black,
Georgia Tech is out for a victory.
Well drop our battle-axe on Georgias head,
When we meet her our team is sure to beat her.
Down on the old farm there will be no sound
Till our bow-wows rip through the air;
When the battle is over Georgias team will be found
With the Yellow Jackets swarming round!

..,If I had a son, sir, Ill tell you what hed do --
He would yell, TO HELL WITH GEORGIA, like his daddy used to do.

Whats the Good Word?
To Hell with Georgia! X3
How bout them dawgs?
[censored] on em!

Posted this last year in regards to Clean Old Fashioned Hate. Some liked the summary/recap of the rivalry so I dug it up again. Hope you guys decide to watch on Saturday at 8!

I bet a little more on this game than I usually do on one game, because I don't trust college kids. I went with Tech, so of course their option QB comes up lame in the first quarter.

Thank god it's not real money. :lol:

A small sampling of some of the thread commenters on the AJC on Friday evening. There were plenty of articles about the game and plenty of GT crowing about the beat down that Tech was about to administer. Georgia's worst team in 10 years beat Tech's best. And the ACC is a total joke.

?With a week off to prepare, and a well rested Yellow Jacket squad, this should be a very good game as the triple option gets going in this one. Tech covers in this game against UGA. Paul Johnson rules in rivalry games! ?

?I work in athens I wear my Georgia Tech hats and shirts proudly and the lil bulldawgs never say a word but I love the way they look at me with hatred when I could careless about them. They are just another win on the season to me.?

Ramble On:
?My guess is that your punter, Butler will break all the UGA punting records tonight. I say he punts about 20 times for a total of 1000 yards. Now, that my UGAG friends is an accomplishment. THWG!?

?Hey buLLdawg!! As you can see, we are all sooo upset and rattled by your fiction. Come back tomorrow and tell us all the other ways UGAy is superior to Tech, except in what this whole thread is about. UGA 17 GT 38?

?I hope that the Jackets beat the hell out of the Bulldogs. However, I?ll be happy if we win by 1.?

?I just can?t stand the Bulldogs. I wish we would break the old scoring record that we put up against Cumberland.?
