| abstract | - Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate is the nickname given to an American college football rivalry between the Georgia Bulldogs football team of the University of Georgia and Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets football team of the Georgia Institute of Technology. The two Georgia universities are separated by miles ( km) and have been heated rivals since 1893. While the sports rivalry between the two institutions has traditionally focused on football, they also compete in a variety of other intercollegiate sports, as well as competing for government and private funding, potential students, and academic recognition within the state and nationally. The Georgia Institute of Technology (commonly referred to as Georgia Tech, Tech, or GT), is an engineering research university located in the state's capital and largest city, Atlanta. The University of Georgia (commonly referred to as Georgia or UGA) is located in Athens, and is a liberal arts research university. The academic and geographic divergence of the two institutions polarizes the state of Georgia into two large fan bases.
