As the Georgia Bulldogs prepare for a SEC showdown with the Alabama Crimson Tide, they now know the school has plenty of fans from the home town of another conference program.
The president of Southern University (based in Baton Rouge, LA … the same city as LSU) wrote a letter to the school, its football program and head coach Mark Richt to thank them for their treatment and help of injured player Devon Gales, who was severely hurt in the third quarter of last Saturday’s game between the schools.
The letter read in part:
From the moment of the accident, UGA and SU sports medicine staff worked side by side to tend to the injured SU player until he was taken off the field and transported to Athens Regional Medical Center.
