Long snappah U

Who evaluates long snappahs now that Coach Dooley is no longer with us. We’re building quite a tradition here now.

The guy who never wants to hear his name after the game. Welcome to Athens, Colton!

I've been a Dawg my entire life. UGA was always my dream school where I received 2 Terry College degrees and met my DGD wife. I've been a season ticket holder for over 30 years and love the in-stadium experience over anything from Section HD. My first game in Sanford Stadium was the 1981 Auburn game where we clinched the SEC championship. The best game I've attended in person was the Midnight Miss against Ohio State (nite, nite!). The best home games I've attended were the 1984 Clemson game (the Butler did it) and the 2013 LSU game (that 4th down is still the loudest single moment I've experienced between the hedges). The game I love to win is against the Handbags (FTMF), and the game I hate to lose is the NATS (Tuck Fech).

  1. I may have told this story here before but when I was in the USAF and stationed in Germany, I met a big guy who joined the Army just to get out of town as fast as he could. He was the long snapper in high school and told me he snapped the ball over the punter’s head in the state championship game and the other team scored and they lost. He couldn’t live it down.

    • I love the fact that I never know who our LS is until he graduates and (usually) wins some awards. Here’s to never hearing this guy’s name again for the next 4 years.

  2. It’s always a wonder to me that the long snapper on punts is the first guy down the field. These new Long Snappers will never experience the hard nose life of the old centers. If you know what Bucking the center is your old. I used to snap in college intermurals and a guy once kept knocking me on my butt after every snap. I finally just fell back and kick him in the nuts. He was much nicer after that.
