Amidst all the reshuffling, these nerds voluntarily left the cash cow that is the SEC over 50 years ago.

In fairness, can you predict what's going to happen in 50 years?

And yet not a word about Sewanee or Tulane.

Was the SEC a cash cow in 1964?

It's appropriate that the named the stadium after Bobby Dodd, because his decision to leave the SEC ended up sinking them, like an anchor around their neck.

Bobby Dodd couldn't stand the idea of other schools abusing the "140 rule" by overrecruiting, then cutting players (in violation of the NCAA rules).

When I think of this rivalry, I recall the picture on the front page of the AJC sports section profiling the UGA lineman who was a grad student in Math. UGA was so proud of him, and how bright he was, and that he didn’t have to go to Tech to study something technical

He was pictured standing in front of a chalkboard with the quadratic equation in the background. He had written the equation wrong.

and yet Georgia continues to play them annually as a cop-out "P5 OOC matchup"

If they'd had stayed, would GT football be akin to Vandy? Are they anyway?

Absolutely no one outside the state of Georgia cares a whit about Ga Tech.
