The AJ-C interviewed three quarterbacks who started Georgia-Florida games in the 80’s and 90’s to get their perspectives on whether the game should remain in Jacksonville. The surprising part to me wasn’t that all three favored leaving the game where it is – I figure the paper could find three ex-players who feel differently – but what former Gator QB Danny Weurffel had to say:
… Many of the details of the alternating home games have gotten lost in my mind with the dozens of other home and away games in which I had participated. The games that stand out, for lots of different reasons, were in Jacksonville.
I mean, really? I would have thought 52-17 in Athens would have been the one to stick out.
It was for me, that’s for sure.
