For those who are unaware, people keep track of bowl eligibility streaks, and Georgia and Georgia Tech were tied for the fourth longest bowl eligibility streak in NCAA (behind VT, FSU, and Florida, who are regular opponents/rivals of UGA and GT coincidentally).

Bowl Streaks

Longest bowl appearance streaks as of 2012 season:

1. Florida State 31
2. Florida 22
3. Virginia Tech 20
4. Georgia 16
5. Georgia Tech 16*
Yes, GT definitely deserves the asterisk (*).

You are such a party pooper on this topic, Mathman!!!
