One of the coolest things about college football is the stadium environments, and Georgia has seen some pretty good ones over the years.
It is always amazing to see matchups that do not happen annually in a home and home series. Though the Georgia Bulldogs have recently cancelled some of their home and home series in the future, there are still some cities that most fans have no idea the Bulldogs have ever played in. To name a few, here are the most notable and intriguing.
1. Chattanooga, Tennessee
Not a lot of people know that Georgia playing the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga was a frequent matchup in the 1940s. In fact, they have played a total of nine times, with six of those coming in the 40s.
The majority of their matchups happened in Chattanooga at Chamberlain Field. Though the stadium is no longer there, the university has a large field in the heart of campus for students named after the historic site. Georgia owns the series against the Mocs 8-0-1, with a tied game with a final score of 6-6 in 1915.
2. New York City, New York
With Yankee Stadium starting to host football games again during bowl season, it is interesting to note that Georgia has played three games at the historic baseball field before.
From 1929 to 1939, Georgia made frequent trips to New York City to play football. Georgia played New York University six times over the 10-year span, with five of those games being played in New York and three at Yankee Stadium. The series to this day is split 3-3, with all but one game being decided by one possession.
3. Augusta, Georgia
The annual location for the historic Masters Golf Tournament, Augusta, was the site for a few historic Georgia games. Two of the four games actually came within days of each other.
In 1893 Georgia played the Augusta Athletic Club and Furman. Georgia defeated Augusta Athletic Club on December 1 by a score of 25-0. The game marked the program's first ever win outside of Athens. Just seven days later on December 8, Georgia went back to Augusta to play Furman where they won 22-8.
Georgia would then go on to play Augusta Athletic Club again in 1894. For decades, Georgia did not see Augusta again. However, the Bulldogs played a notable wartime exhibition game in 1943 against the Daniel Field Flyers (a local military team) at ARC Stadium. That game is known as the most historic and important game in the history of ARC Stadium and Augusta as a whole.
