A Tradition on the National Stage
The University of Georgia is celebrating a rare double honor as four of its time‑tested football traditions have earned spots on the USA TODAY Sports Readers' Choice Awards ballot.
The nominees span the iconic fight song "Glory, Glory," the historic Sanford Stadium, the beloved bulldog mascot Uga, and the vibrant Athens tailgating experience, each competing for titles such as Best Fight Song, Best College Football Stadium, Best Mascot and Best Tailgating Experience.
Voting Timeline and Stakes
Voting remains open until 11:59 a.m. ET on August 17, giving fans a narrow window to cast their selections before the tally is finalized.
The announcement of the top ten winners in each category will take place on August 26 at noon ET, when the nation will learn which traditions have captured the collective imagination of college‑football enthusiasts.
This is not the first time the Bulldogs have resonated with the broader sports community; just last year they finished as runners‑up for the Best College for Sports Fans accolade, underscoring a sustained pattern of fan‑driven recognition.
