The official website of the University of Georgia’s athletic department previously listed G-Day, the annual scrimmage concluding spring practice, as starting at a time to be announced.
School officials set the date last month, again avoiding overlap of The Masters after years of Georgia sports fans having to decide which legendary local sporting venue to visit.
Today, kickoff time was updated to be 2:00 p.m. EST on Saturday, April 18. It will air on ESPN’s SEC Network.
Thanks to SicEmDawgs.com for first noticing the update.
Following several years of at-capacity crowds (we’re talking upward of 93,000 folks, folks) for the Bulldogs’ spring scrimmage, wind and rain limited last year’s attendance to a modest 52,000 drenched Dawg fans.
Regardless of northeast Georgia’s unpredictable weather, between the hours of 2:00 and 6:00 p.m. on April 18, Georgia fans wet and dry will be able to celebrate the off-season’s halfway point.
