After some discussion to move the Tech-UGA game to the Georgia Dome or a neutral site and changing it from the end of the year to the beginning, the idea has been rejected by UGA officials.
The original idea proposed was to move the game in 2011 to the Georgia Dome and to play in Sept. for the Chick-fil-A-Kickoff game, an interruption in the regular schedule that usually had each team hosting a home game in alternate years. The plan would have been contingent on UGA agreeing to change what would have been a home game to an away game in 2012. Georgia Director of Athletics Damon Evans rejected the idea, citing the potential change in schedule as a central reason.
