Why do georgia fans always root for some random nfl team up north instead of rooting for the Falcons. Its really hard to take your opinion seriously if you’re that blatant about bandwagoning

as someone who lives in georgia (not a georgia fan) it’s really hard to want to root for the falcons

I only know like three people in athens who care abt NFL. Most dawg fans are content cheering on uga, and will just root for individual players at the nfl level. Thus… the eagles are a popular team since they have so many dgds. Falcons have very few uga grads as opposed to other nfl teams

Everyone I know like that is a non GA native UGA alum who roots for the team from whatever state or city they’re actually from

#1. The Falcons suck and are doing literally nothing to right the ship #2. Over half of the Eagles starters on defense are from the 2021-2022 UGA Championship teams

If you’re a casual NFL fan but a big CFB fan I get pulling for a team that’s got a lot of your school’s guys. I don’t do that though.
