Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate

Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate is the nickname given to an American college football rivalry between the Bulldogs team of the University of Georgia and Yellow Jackets team of the Georgia Institute of Technology. The two Southern universities are located in Georgia and are separated by 70 miles (110 km). They have been heated rivals since 1893. While the sports rivalry between the two institutions has traditionally focused on football, a sport in which both programs have historically been successful, they compete in a variety of other intercollegiate sports, as well as competing for government and private funding, potential students, and academic recognition regionally and nationally.

The University of Georgia (commonly referred to as UGA, or Georgia) is located in the college town Athens, and is a liberal arts research university. The Georgia Institute of Technology (commonly referred to as Georgia Tech, Tech, or GT), is a science and technology research university located in the center of the state's capital, Atlanta. Georgia competes athletically in the Southeastern Conference while Georgia Tech competes in the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Both teams have won national titles in football. Georgia claims titles from 1942 and 1980. Georgia Tech claims titles from 1917, 1928, 1952, and 1990. Georgia also has won a title in baseball in 1990. Both schools have also seen prominence in men's basketball, with Georgia first making the Final Four in 1983, while Georgia Tech made trips in both 1990 and 2004.

Georgia was the first state-chartered school in the US, founded on January 27, 1785. Georgia Tech was founded 100 years later on October 13, 1885. Patrick Hues Mell, the president of the University of Georgia at that time, was a firm believer that the new school should be located in Athens with UGA's main campus, like the Agricultural and Mechanical School. Despite Mell's arguments, the new school was located near what was then the northern city limits of Atlanta.
