I do believe that UGA was in fact the first Land Grant College and not the Public College.

yeah, it's all semantic at this point. i just had to look it up because i knew that chapel hill told me they were the oldest, and the gf was saying that WM told her they were the oldest and then here comes the blusterbus saying that GA was then oldest and they're all basically making it up. it's like TV vs intercontinental champs.

I know the debate between UGA and UNC is that UGA got its charter 1st but UNC started class first. William & Mary is not a true public institution, although they do receive state assistance from Virginia.

Hey, common ground people. We can both hate Georgia Tech.

The one good thing I took from this past sports weekend was the fact that Tech lost to Va Tech. THey were a 19 1/2 point fave and Va Tech had not beaten a top 20 team in 20 years or something.

Yes, I hate Duke. I hate Dick Vitale even more for all of the ass kissing he gives Coach K. The thing about Tech is that last year, around here at least, all of the Techies came out of the woodwork when Tech was making their run last year. Paul Hewitt was getting "genius" praise and the shit talking was flying. I don't feel sorry for them one bit. They have the same exact team and they just don't have it right now. That's not to say they won't get it together but I'm enjoying it right now.

As for Alabama, it's kind of a weird relationship that UGA and Bama has. We play each other in football so infrequently that a hatred never really developed. Don't get me wrong though, I lived in Alabama for about 10 months for work and I know how blindly they believe that the Bear is comiing back.

Oh no, they don't get a free pass anymore. Their time as the feel good underdog just won't cut it anymore. They're a perennial top 20 team these days which makes them worthy of hate from someone. Not me necessarily, but from someone.

UNC operated as a state university before any other in America. The University of Georgia was chartered in 1785, but did not open its doors until 1801. The College of Charleston opened in 1770, and was chartered in 1785, but was a private school until 1836, when it became a municipal college; it did not join the South Carolina state university system until 1970. The College of William and Mary was founded in 1693, but was a private institution until 1906. Which of those schools should be called the oldest state university is a subject of debate; however, UNC is the only public university in the United States that awarded degrees as a public institution in the eighteenth century.

that might be the most georgian thing that i've ever heard, creating a school and then having the patience to not actually open it for 16 years

Yeah it is 1785; and yeah that is a truly Georgian thing to not open a university for 16 years; you know with the inbreeding and slavery and all-who's got time man?

Sorry Chase-ster (or el-Chase-arino if you're into the whole brevity thing) NOBODY calls me Chrissy except my grandma.....

That's exactly why they shouldn't be hated. Gonzaga made themselves a Top 20 program playing in a mid-major conference. The only people with a stake in hating the Zags are WCC opponents and maybe the Huskies, Cougs, and EWU eagles.

i hate duke first, and with my second choice, i choose unc.

Black Magic Putin · **Posted:** Tue Jan 25, 2005 4:38 pm

unc's not in the sec though. very american reach-around attempt, though.

e-stone · **Posted:** Tue Jan 25, 2005 4:42 pm

dude, i totally thought you meant sec as shorthand for second...meaning "if you hate duke, i'll hate any second school you want [along with you]".

edit: it's pretty obvious i just skimmed this thread.

Wow, I can't believe you even mentioned NC State. Most people forget about them what with Duke and UNC. Nice going, Cotton.

But, when did TJ endow UVa? And, isn't Penn a public university, Ivy or not?

Apres his presidency, I think, b/c he copied UGA's North Campus layout for the layout of his schools for asshats and punk bitches (I HATE UVA}

No problem. Although I thought it was going to end up like last year's ACC semifinal game. Up huge at the half, let it piss away in the second. Thankfully, we didn't collapse like we did in the rest of our ACC games (we have had double digit leads in all of them, and we are 2-3).

Go Falcons!
