I will forever relish the 2015 UGA vs South Carolina game. Spurrier's last game against Georgia before he retired. We hung 52 on him that game, and the grin on my face always returns when I remember it and Spurrier throwing the visor.
For me , it’s the 2012 UGA VS USC game that I’ll forever relish…#5 Georgia came into Columbia VS #6 SC and the dawgs left with tails tucked from a 4 TD beat down
This is the video that all UGA fans need to see. My first Georgia game was GA-FL 1997, the only UGA victory of the 90s. Kirby was a senior on that team. My uncle and I attended this game every year through 2019. In the 2000s, I was the ONLY UGA fan who realized UF owned us. No UGA fan understood how serious this game was. Nobody cared. Many did not know it was played in Jacksonville. I gave up in the late 2000s thinking we would ever beat Florida again. I saw the 47-7 losses from Spurrier. I saw all the better Mark Richt UGA teams lose to a worse Florida team in the 2000s. I saw the two undefeated loses which cost UGA a National Championship (2002, 2005). We NEVER left the game early. We suffered through it all. By 2010, my record was 3-11 in Jacksonville... After the '21 locker room speech by Kirby, most Dawg fans laughed. But thanks to my dad and uncle, I knew the history of Spurrier and Georgia. When I heard the '21 locker room speech, I knew Kirby was our Steve Spurrier. I told my wife, "Who would have thought the savior for UGA is a home-grown guy, born a Dawg fan, played for the Dawgs, and suffered the worse loses to Florida along with two NFL Hall of Fame teammates (Hines Ward and Champ Bailey)?" When you listen to Kirby's '21 locker room speech, it was not about winning that game. His speech was the hatred he had for Florida. Most UGA fans did not pick up on this. If you don't beat Florida, you don't get the SEC. If you don't get the SEC, you don't get the National Championship. Kirby has a long memory, and so do I. I have every ticket of those dreadful games framed in my office. I see those tickets and still feel the absolute knife-twisting, heart-wrenching, tear-filled let downs of those Florida losses. Never forget.
Georgia fan living in Florida here! I will never forget Ray Goff beating Spurrier back in the 90s. I was at a crowded bar in Sarasota and the only Dawg fan. Very somber and quiet...except for the sounds of my laughter. Loved seeing that visor being thrown. 😂
I hate to break it to you but Ray Goff never beat Florida in the 90's,Florida's one loss in that Decade was in 97,and Goff wasn't the coach,sorry about that
@truettjohnson7230 The older you get you remember things differently. I appreciate you setting me straight. I was quite drunk! 😄 Seriously...thanks. Now I can tell the story right. Donnan..that's actually even a crazier story. I definitely was at a bar on St Armands Circle Sarasota....who knows.
46 years old. I was at the 1995 game in Athens when Florida beat us 52-17. Next year in Jacksonville, they beat us 47-7. I'll never forget those games. I KNOW Kirby won't either.
@obsidian00 bitter, frustrating times. I just wanted Georgia to be relevant. Not necessarily the best, just respected. Thankfully we are now. May the winning continue!
I was at the 1995 game as well. We left early and as we walked out we had a bunch of Florida fans yelling at us “Where are ya’ll going?”. I didn’t like Florida at all, but that day my hatred for all things Gator related spiked and it has never dropped. Go Dawgs!
@@brandonthompson5293 I sat in section 133, Georgia sideline 30 yard line. I had to walk under that tunnel and take their crap. Agreed, they just made GATOR HATERS for life. GO DAWGS!❤️🖤🏆🏆
Kirby wound up getting the same hatred for Florida that Spurrier had for Georgia. And when he’s beating the crap out of Florida, notice that he doesn’t take his foot off the gas like he does in other games. He keeps the first string out there until it’s over!
@@carltonreese4854Georgia already has more National Titles than Florida, wdym? If you are focused on "glory days" that's fine, but right now Florida is barely able to even make any bowl game for that matter.
And Kirby will never forget Spurrier and the Gators running up the scores against Ga. Never forget , never forgive. If he has an opportunity bro out 100 on em, go for it !
@@thomasblankinship98 I know and agree. Just saying where Spurrier" hate for GA came from why he would beat GA as badly as he could. The game in Athens is a prime example.
Yeah, it sounds like something a Simp Bitch would do that was raised by a single mother that weaponized him for money to keep the father out of his life.🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rivalries are fun - and intense. One year Oklahoma coach Barry Switzer went for 2 against Texas when they were up by 40. The media asked him why he went for 2. He said, "because I couldn't go for 3"
@Dawgs Central. Great intel. I'm 60 yrs old and knew some of this. But the details and timeline is appreciated. As I am typing you already have over 2000 views of this video in 5 hours. Dude! By Sat gametime you will have 50,000. Kept digging in the vault.
Yes, as a 59 1/2 year-old I share the same experience and if you remember that in the charlie pell fla years, 82 and 83. He sent spies posing as UGA students to watch the Georgia practices prior to the game leading Dooley and the athletic Director to install black boards 10 feet high from the public viewing area around the then practice field …so it was a bitter, bitter, polluted rivalry when Kirby was in short pants.
As a UGA coach, you won't keep your job if your team can't be UF. As a UF coach, you won't keep your job if your team can't beat UGA. You love to see it.
UGA fan/alum here. Nice piece but I need to correct you on the flea-flicker play that has been erroneously reported over the years, mainly from the UGA side. SOS did NOT call that play, but rather his backup QB did (Kresser) without his permission. After the TD, SOS chewed him out on the sidelines over it until an assistant gave him a heads up on the 50 points/Sanford thing. Only then did Spurrier calm down, and he told Kresser not to say anything about it and he would handle it. Afterwards, SOS took credit for the call (assuming Kresser would get heat for it) and the rest is history. Kresser, several OL players, James Bates, etc. from the Florida side have told this story many times and laughed at the fact that SOS took credit for something he truly had no part of.
I'm reminded of Woody Hayes going for 2 on Michigan when Ohio State was blowing them out in 1968. They asked him why he went for 2 late in the game with a big lead: "Because they wouldn't let me go for 3"
Moral of the story, watch out who you piss off because they might come back to kick your teeth in. 20 years from now Mertz could be head coach at UF in the next chapter.
Tennessee fan, interesting video. We just need our Kirby Smart lol... not sure if it would be Alabama, Florida, Georgia, or who. We tend to have a lot of enemies... Kirby Smart is probably the best coach in CFB right now and it will be curious if Georgia makes a Saban-Alabama like run or better with him.
@@cambishop9435 sure but teams adjust/good programs. Saban had to make several adjustments during his run. I think the challenge maybe the new SEC additions and schedules. The schedule, currently, helped Georgia a lot with having their harder games towards back end where you can watch teams play and develop gameplan for them. Although the main excuse is that Tennessee just hasn't been good, having Florida, Georgia (historically but not this year) and usually a tough OOC game early made it really hard on Tennessee starting out. Granted, Florida has same disadvantage as Tennessee with early matchup, it just seems like they managed it better as a program. The new SEC schedule maybe more of a threat to you guys, depending on how it lines up.
@@RJ-fe9pu Not a big fan of Georgia either but they were relevant even before 2020. They played in the National Title in 2017 and should have own it, they also had great teams in 2002, 2005, and 2007 and were regular contenders. They just didn't seem to get over the hump until 2020.
Love my Gators! Love Spurrier!! MANY great moments at Gator games with my late Brother in the 90s. BUT....Gotta take my hate off to Smart. He's a great Ambassador to NCAA Ball. SO glad he spoke up after their fiasco Bowl Game vs FSU and I HAAAAAAATE FSU!! It was NOT a good thing for NCAA Ball.
Sure those times were some special times you experienced in the 90’s. I’m sorry you lost your brother, but I’m glad you got to have that experience with him. Always appreciate fans who can tip their cap to a rival when they’ve got it going right… Spurrier was must watch television for years. What he did at Florida changed the whole status of the program, and what he did at South Carolina was historic as well. Florida might be a bit down right now, but they won’t stay that way. Hope you enjoy the season man. - Graham
Not certain of any correlation. As a player at Florida, Spurrier put up points on a lot of teams. As a coach he was notorious for running up the score on anyone he could, Georgia or anybody else. Smart has won a lot of games at Georgia and has had his fair share of lopsided wins. That Florida/Georgia rivalry has been a good one for a long time.
At went to Florida from 90-95. Was also going to games when Herschel was playing for the Dawgs. Indeed that was a special period for the Gators. Georgia has a storied program and Smart has brought it back to life. Now if Florida can get back to elite levels it will be a heck of a matchup in Jax. I hope it doesn’t get moved.
Kirby thinks it's unfair, though. Deep down he really is a tulip -- just happens to be killing it right now. In due time, when Florida wakes up again, he'll be crying to get out of Jacksonville. Notice, I've never heard him say playing the SEC Championship in Atlanta should change.
@@carltonreese4854 there’s an economic argument too tho. Local communities benefit and I’m sure Athens is arguing that they are losing out by not having the game in a home-away setting. I still think it’s a special attraction in Jax
It’s terrible for recruiting - and recruiting is more important than ever before. It’s not fair to our school and our students to give up a home game every other year. Fuck Jacksonville.
@@carltonreese4854the SEC championship is a game that does not have two pre-determined competitors. We’re talking about home games that UGA essentially has to give up and recruits not being on campus for one of the biggest games. Apples to oranges.
Kirby would be fine playing in Jax if he could have recruits there. That’s his only concern, recruiting. He could care less about crossing the state line to pound Florida.
UGA/FL dominance comes and goes. Right now UGA enjoys complete dominance in a way they never did before in the history of the rivalry, because they are a complete team and do not depend upon Herschel for their excellence like the last time they owned FL for multiple years. But, just like Spurrier's utter annual annihilation of UGA in the 90s, no era lasts forever.
Spurrier beat Richt when he was at South Carolina, not Kirby. Also, Spurrier quit on the South Carolina team mid season after Georgia put a beat down on him in 2015.
This is funny. It reminds me of how Auburn plays the “world against us” card or how Tennessee claimed the 90s as the decade of dominance although UF clearly dominated the 90s. Oh well…RTR! 😂
All the CF homers in northeastern Atlanta that wore Clemson, Florida, Florida State, and Alabama jersey's in highschool in the late 90's are enjoying their son's wearing UGA red now. 😂😂😂
I had hatred for Steve Spurrier in the 1990s. Spurrier though, is nowhere near where Nick Saban is. 1995 is mentioned and Spurrier got blown out by Nebraska in the national championship game.
I hate florida. My dad who would have done what I did told me he wouldn’t bring me back to Jville after I flipped off a Gator fan chomping my 15 year old self. So 2 years later while I was a senior in high school and hadn’t missed a game all year or maybe 2 years as I went without my dad all over the sec but he flew down to the game and found me a bit intoxicated. We got our ass kicked and I’ve only been to one other game since. I haven’t been to many of the Kirby games anywhere because of my health but I love kicking UFs ass. It means everything
@thejazzmusician we played florida state when they was at the top of they game georgia never played a florida schedule!! Ever even now look who we play and who u play we play lsu u play auburn we use to play both in 06 we won a natty beating auburn Alabama georgia florida state lsu Arkansas at its best and Ohio state Tennessee florida at its best is juz better let me know when the sec don't help Alabama and georgia with them weak schedules georgia hasn't been to Texas am yet florida been dere twice
Live by the sword. And die by the sword. That was the old Atlanta Falcons announcer sayings. But Smart will never be 11- 1 against Florida or 10 - 1 against Tennessee.
Spurrier won one natty in twenty seven seasons as a head coach in an objectively weaker era that lacked parity. Kirby’s won two in his first seven in the midst of the most competitive era of the game’s history. Go turn on your Tim Tebow VHS tapes and relive the glory days bc they’re long gone friend. It’s 2023. I was born in the 80s and hopelessly cheered as we got waxed every year. Times have changed.
@@dynamitenight8557Vince Dooley won one natty in twenty five seasons. Gene Chizik won that same amount at Auburn in four. Chizik better than Dooley then by your logic.
Ridiculous headline. And what a monumental stretch linking Spurrier's DOMINENCE against ga as some kind of motivational tool for smart. Here's the actual facts. Spurrier dominated ga. as coach of the Gators. He then took a back of the pack SEC team in South Carolina and within a couple of years was again dominating ga. Sugar coat it all you want to, Spurrier is ga's Daddy, PERIOD! 😅
Any "breaking" of UF is only temporary. College football is nothing if not cyclic. We are beginning to get those Florida players to stay home again now, and clamping down on UGA and Bama pirating Florida players like Jalen Carter and Derrick Henry. UF will be back, count on it.
Sure, they're staying home. And going to Florida State. Bahaha. Gatorbaters better just hope FSU doesn't get an invite to the SEC, that's all I'm saying.
@@Digitalsapienlmao. Nobody's scared of FSU. Yall come to the SEC and it won't be anything near what you have in the ACC. Yall struggle with Duke and those other "bball" schools. Yall don't wanna join the SEC
Spurrier has always been a smarmy individual when it comes to GA, I have no respect for him because of the fixation on bragging about defeating GA during his coaching career. He is an egotistical ass, there is no argument.

@@jcdawg8363 Spurrier owned Georgia.
This is funny. It reminds me of how Auburn plays the “world against us” card or how Tennessee claimed the 90s as the decade of dominance although UF clearly dominated the 90s. Oh well…RTR! 😂
Spurlock won the Heisman and got married that year
All the CF homers in northeastern Atlanta that wore Clemson, Florida, Florida State, and Alabama jersey's in highschool in the late 90's are enjoying their son's wearing UGA red now. 😂😂😂
Too bad he’s not around at Florida now to coach against CKS.
You can shove that Spurrier😂
Before he is done maybe at age 70 Kirby will win more national championships than Saban and Bryant put together. He is just 47.
Let’s go UGA
Yes he was! 😂he owned us!
Big Dawgs fan here. I really don't hate the Gators. I just hate Spurrier
I ain’t gonna lie. I hated to ole ball coach. Now I kinda respect him.
I had hatred for Steve Spurrier in the 1990s. Spurrier though, is nowhere near where Nick Saban is.
1995 is mentioned and Spurrier got blown out by Nebraska in the national championship game.
I hate florida. My dad who would have done what I did told me he wouldn’t bring me back to Jville after I flipped off a Gator fan chomping my 15 year old self. So 2 years later while I was a senior in high school and hadn’t missed a game all year or maybe 2 years as I went without my dad all over the sec but he flew down to the game and found me a bit intoxicated. We got our ass kicked and I’ve only been to one other game since. I haven’t been to many of the Kirby games anywhere because of my health but I love kicking UFs ass. It means everything
Kirby already lost 2 ain't no catching spurrier
Kirby already won 2 titles. Ain't no catching Kirby... spurrier
Good, keep telling yourself that while the Gators get humiliated, again.
We won three tho Meyer match Kirby Spurrier has more sec championships and more wins against georgia
@thejazzmusician we played florida state when they was at the top of they game georgia never played a florida schedule!! Ever even now look who we play and who u play we play lsu u play auburn we use to play both in 06 we won a natty beating auburn Alabama georgia florida state lsu Arkansas at its best and Ohio state Tennessee florida at its best is juz better let me know when the sec don't help Alabama and georgia with them weak schedules georgia hasn't been to Texas am yet florida been dere twice
@skullyready7786 What is this we?. I thought this was Kirby vs spurrier? Y'all won 3? We won 4 with more SEC titles than FL.
Live by the sword. And die by the sword. That was the old Atlanta Falcons announcer sayings. But Smart will never be 11- 1 against Florida or 10 - 1 against Tennessee.
And Spurrier will never have two National Championships.
Like the saying goes. If you don’t like it. Stop it.
Nuthin greater than a gaytor hater
Unlike Spurrier, he has already lost more games to Florida than Spurrier did to UGA in 12 years
How's that humble pie taste?
Spurrier won one natty in twenty seven seasons as a head coach in an objectively weaker era that lacked parity.
Kirby’s won two in his first seven in the midst of the most competitive era of the game’s history.
Go turn on your Tim Tebow VHS tapes and relive the glory days bc they’re long gone friend. It’s 2023.
I was born in the 80s and hopelessly cheered as we got waxed every year. Times have changed.
Florida is now the Tennessee of 2008-2021
@@dynamitenight8557Vince Dooley won one natty in twenty five seasons. Gene Chizik won that same amount at Auburn in four. Chizik better than Dooley then by your logic.
@savagetigerfbfan6673 Florida is Florida,nobody else,and in last 33 years 22-11 vs UGA so do get it mixed up
Ridiculous headline. And what a monumental stretch linking Spurrier's DOMINENCE against ga as some kind of motivational tool for smart. Here's the actual facts. Spurrier dominated ga. as coach of the Gators. He then took a back of the pack SEC team in South Carolina and within a couple of years was again dominating ga. Sugar coat it all you want to, Spurrier is ga's Daddy, PERIOD! 😅
all teams are cyclical. Gators will be up again and uga will be down... its normal
Objectively I don’t think you can compare Smart and Superior, Steve was a childish dick while Kirby seems to be a man of character.
Spurrier was a flop in the NFL as a QB, okay as a PUNTER. What a putz!
I already hated Spurrier but after this video I better know why I hate him and I hate him even more.
So Kirby is just a spoiled lil boy that coaches football now?
with 2 rings to show for it. he's a better coach than steve ever was, boy.
@@spearofconquest matter of fact he acts just like Steve Spurrier
Yes Yes GO DAWGS
It's GREAT to be a gator HATER!!
Any "breaking" of UF is only temporary. College football is nothing if not cyclic. We are beginning to get those Florida players to stay home again now, and clamping down on UGA and Bama pirating Florida players like Jalen Carter and Derrick Henry. UF will be back, count on it.
Sure, they're staying home. And going to Florida State. Bahaha. Gatorbaters better just hope FSU doesn't get an invite to the SEC, that's all I'm saying.
FL has better recruiting than fsu which is probably why it is harder to get into FL (fsu just sucks all the way around)
@@Digitalsapienlmao. Nobody's scared of FSU. Yall come to the SEC and it won't be anything near what you have in the ACC. Yall struggle with Duke and those other "bball" schools. Yall don't wanna join the SEC
@@RJ-fe9puFlorida state is recruiting very well right now and the past 2 years how they’ve been doing they’re back and it’s a fact
@@RJ-fe9pureally? They suck so bad they are in the top 4 and undefeated. Aren't y'all on their menu later this year ? LOL
Ray Goff & Jim Donnan 2-10 vs Florida
I refer to that as "the dark years of UGA football". GO DAWGS!!!
@old706 tru
Gooooo Dawgs Sic'Em Woof Woof !!!
Kirby is 5-2 about to be 6-2 against fLorida
Vince Dooley 20-5 against Florida. Ran off 3 coaches . Beat the #1 Gators and ruined their title hopes !
Karma's a BIOTCH!!!
GO DAWGS!!!
Go Gators
I firmly believe that you can kill college football too. But also, how we gonna go play South Carolina now…whatever
I hate both teams. I pull for the underdog in this game.
Spurrier can pound sand
FTMF!
Don’t worry, we didn’t like him either and if he was so good, he should’ve went 12 and 0
56-44-2 Georgia
Nick Saban gave birth to Kirby. damn he is missed in t-town. wasn’t ever quite the same after he left
Spurrier has always been a smarmy individual when it comes to GA, I have no respect for him because of the fixation on bragging about defeating GA during his coaching career. He is an egotistical ass, there is no argument.
Go DAWGS
Georgia Bulldogs head coach Larry Culpepper the Doctor Pepper man ! Go Gators ! Beat Georgia !
The chances are less than 0 on that
Actually UGA fans are born with a hatred for Florida Gators
Yawn. Wake me up when Kirby coaches against Florida and Tennessee teams that are contenders like they were in the 90's.
Kirby on his way to a 3rd natty in a row only Ohio state Michigan or FSU can stop him
@@savagetigerfbfan6673 But I thought Georgia was unbeatable.
@@joeg4707 I think they are im just throwing out a list of very few teams that have a shot against them
@@joeg4707 right now they’re out there making a statement so yes they look unbeatable and without Brock bowers
They won't ever get to that point because they aren't getting past Georgia
Kirby is Spurrier’s worst nightmare😂
Why does he look like Bill Clinton :/
