Who scored ALL15 points in Georgia's 15-9 victory over Yale during the dedication game of Sanford Stadium in 1929? Bonus is telling me how he did it....

BTW, good job, wlayton!

Found this:

Vernon (\"Catfish\") Smith of Georgia's little bulldogs helped block and then picked up a punt made by Yale's big bulldogs, ran it over for a touchdown, kicked the goal. In addition he did all Georgia's punting and scored another touchdown by snatching a forward pass. Capt. Joe Boland of Georgia played bulldoggedly at centre while behind him Fullback Rothstein got away with murder and Halfback Waugh was hell. The Georgians snaked out of their new stadium to light bonfires. Georgia 15, Yale 0.

...he scored by falling on a blocked punt in the endzone, kicked an extra point, an interception, and a safety....

That's right!! Now it's your turn to ask a question! If you would like to \"pass the buck\", anyone can ask!

BTW, wasn't that amazing? Could you imagine that EVER happening again?

Hey, no fair looking it up! Trivia means you know it, LimeyDawg.

Next question: who is the only football-playing Tereshinski not to play for UGA? What position does/did he play, and for what college football team?

I've got this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That would be John T, the little bro of Joe III. He went to Wake Forest to play TE!! I believe he is a starting senior this year.

Okay, here's one about UGA's prior mascots....

After the reign of the 1894 mascot ended, there was no official mascot until 1944. From 1944 until the UGA era, there were 3 mascots. Can you give me their names?? Or at LEAST give me one of them??

Hint: There is a bronze statue of one of them in front of Memorial Hall!
