  • Georgia Bulldogs Are More Sinister

    / Comments (4)

    The University of Georgia has long been a power house in the South Eastern Conference. This year, in fact, they have a real chance to get the championship. So, they've gotten a facelift in order to look pretty for the cameras. And it's a pretty good one. The trademark G hasn't changed, but Ugga has. He's now a more modern version of a sinister pooch. The best part about the new logo is that it incorporates the real team "G" instead of the generic font.
