I find the UW fanbase’s bitterness towards ND to be hysterical. So much anger!

Ha! Oops.
I saw your post in my feed reader and confused you guys with another “Dawg” blog for UW that pops up in one of my feeds from time to time. I recant the “bitter” and replace with, “Dude, why the harsh stuff for ND?”
Also, ND and Georgia need to find one another on their schedules.
Just calling 'em like I see 'em
We’d love to see the Bulldogs and the Irish tangle again. It worked out very well for us last time! :)
Go 'Dawgs!

I'd just like the excuse...
to head down to Athens again. Great place. You pressure your AD and we’ll pressure ours. When was the last time Georgia played a home-and-home OOC series north of the Mason Dixon?
The "home-and-home" part is what gets us
Georgia played a lot of games north of the Mason-Dixon line in the 1920s, ‘30s, and ’40s, often traveling to take on Eastern teams in places like Boston and New York. Other than Yale’s trip to Athens for the dedicatory game in Sanford Stadium in 1929 (which I believe remains Yale’s only trip to play a football game south of the Mason-Dixon line), though, I don’t recall offhand any of the northeastern teams paying us a return visit.
As for pressuring our athletic director, there’s no need; Damon Evans has reached out to Notre Dame before, and the Irish refused to enter into discussions with him. Our guy is calling; your guy needs to pick up the phone!
Go 'Dawgs!
Call again.
Right now our AD (a new guy since 2006, the old guy’s now at Duke) seems busy trying to convince his bosses that the 7-4-1 scheduling philosophy isn’t gonna work. Which is tough to do. But maybe after he can get the BOT to give up a home game, we could make it down to Athens. The only thing ND fans like more than a home game is an excuse to visit a great college campus in warmer weather in the late fall.
We play one every year . . .
assuming you count Georgia Tech. Sorry domer.mq, that may be kind of an inside joke.
