And when Jacksonville got its Jaguars, you could have counted me among those who thought we were on the verge of saying sayonara to the smell of the pulp mill and coffee factory. That possibility was buoyed when the games did move to first Gainesville, then Athens in 1995 and 1996. They went off without a hitch and nobody seemed to mind. But the game is scheduled to be in Jag-sonville until the year 2002. And you can bet it will go beyond that.
Tradition wins The biggest argument to move the game is scheduling.
If Florida and Georgia did not have to play this neutral site game, both schools would have the luxury of making their slates more attractive. Georgia could get longtime rival Clemson back, Florida could play Miami again. But the only way it will happen is if the NCAA allows a 12th game. So be prepared to stop in Starke for boiled peanuts forever. It's been very important to our fans in South Georgia.
