Georgia Rednecks and Their Pick-Up Billboards


In certain parts of the rural South, a tailgate is considered an appropriate forum for expressing one's views.  The owner of this vehicle apparently prefers the Georgia Bulldogs to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.  The Sports Desk thinks THWT stands for "To Hell With Tech."

The Bulldogs recovered from their embarrassing loss to unranked South Carolina by beating Kentucky, then-No.-8-ranked Florida, and, last night, Missouri.  Meanwhile, LSU beat Alabama yesterday (both teams were ranked in the top three - which team was ranked what depends on which poll you were looking at) and Pedo State lost to Minnesota.  

As a result, Georgia moved up one space in the rankings, from No. 6 to No. 5, just below Alabama, who fell to No. 4.

LSU and Ohio State are also in the Top 5, along with Clemson.  Part of the reason that LSU is doing so well is because their quarterback, the talented Joe Burrow, transferred to Baton Rouge from Ohio State.  Part of the reason Ohio State is doing so well is their quarterback, the talented Justin Fields, transferred to Columbus from the University of Georgia.  Part of the reason Clemson is doing so well is their weak-ass schedule.

Georgia has a tough two weeks coming up, with games against No. 13 Auburn and Texas A&M.  The driver of the pickup above is probably already aware that this year's annual game with Georgia Tech will be November 30.
