A loss is loss even in Atlanta

I guess when you win only 33.3 percent of the games you may want to change things up a bit. That seems to be the mantra of Georgia coach Mark Richt, who is supporting the idea that the "World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party" use the Georgia Dome as an alternate site every four years. The idea originated with the Atlanta Sports Council.

Currently the Dawgs face the mentally stronger Florida Gators each season in Jacksonville. Richt is 2-6 since becoming the head coach. Urban Meyer and his team have a much shorter trip, but the crowd is usually about a 50-50 split. Playing in Atlanta would make an easier trip for the Bulldogs from Athens, but not sure it can help their mental game.

The only time I can remember in recent history that UGA had any swagger was when Richt allowed his players to get freaky after scoring an early TD.

And UGA blogger T Kyle King at Dawg Sports makes a great point on why keeping the game in Jacksonville may be a smarter idea.

Look, Florida has dominated this rivalry lately, winning 16 of the last 19 meetings. But this is one of college football's greatest traditions and there's no reason to mess with it. Besides, at least Richt and the Dawgs have an excuse for their miserable record against the Gators.

What's the excuse when you lose in Atlanta?
