Uga VIII Homecoming Debut

On October 16 at UGA's Homecoming game, Uga VIII made his debut in a special ceremony called "The Changing of the Collars." Uga 8's registered name is "Big Bad Bruce" in honor of the vet that takes care of the dogs, Dr, Bruce Hollett. "Bruce" is a direct descendent from the Uga Bulldog line and the half brother of Uga VII. Coach Mark Richt got to see Uga 8 for the first time this past Wednesday and after the Homecoming game he said, "What a wonderful choice. He was 13 months, 55 pounds and undefeated. I like that. I hope he stays that way.” The Dawgs beat Vandy 43 to 0. Maybe Bruce is the Dawg's new good luck charm.
