Historical Football Comparison: LSU vs. Georgia
Posted on 9/30/09 at 10:58 pm
Posted on 9/30/09 at 10:58 pm
All-Time Records
(including 4 games this season)
UGA: 726-385-54 (.6464)
LSU: 704-383-47 (.6415)
Georgia is #11 all-time in wins, and LSU is #12.
(Southern Cal has 769 wins, making them #10. Auburn is #13 all-time among current major programs, and #14 if Yale's games before it went to I-AA in 1978 are included.)
All-Time SEC Records
(including 2-0 record for each team in 2009)
UGA: 289-189-14 (including 2-1 in SECCG)
LSU: 274-205-22 (including 3-1 in SECCG)
Excluding Georgia Tech, Georgia is #3, and LSU is #5, in terms of all-time SEC winning percentage. Florida is #4.
INTERESTING HISTORICAL NOTE: LSU & Georgia are the only teams to have played 76 full seasons in the SEC. This is because LSU, Georgia, Georgia Tech, and Tulane, were the only SEC teams to play in 1943. In addition to being the only teams playing in their 77th SEC season, LSU & Georgia also started two of the oldest rivalries in the South. The Georgia vs. Auburn rivalry is the oldest, going back to 1892. LSU's first intercollegiate game came in the following spring against Tulane in baseball. In the fall of 1893, LSU played its first football game against Tulane.
