It's not exactly like breaking out black jerseys or silver britches. The Georgia Bulldogs will wear markedly different uniforms for Saturday's season opener vs. Boise State in the Georgia Dome. The Nike Pro Combat uniforms are quite a bit different than anything Bulldogs fans are used to. For spirit reasons, Georgia has resorted to one-game departures before, such as the "Blackout" vs. Auburn in 2007, or wearing silver pants. However, the Nike outfit looks like something out of The Matrix. This is the same style that Oregon debuted in the 2010 BCS title game vs. Auburn. If nothing else, the new design could get many fans talking about something other than Georgia's recent on-field woes; the Bulldogs are coming off a 6-7 season and have not…

Running back played high school ball in Gwinnett.
Caleb King has been ruled academically ineligible to play football for the University of Georgia this coming fall. King played high school football at Parkview and Greater Atlanta Christian School. Coach Mark Richt made the announcement Friday in a press release that King will not be able to play for the entire season. "It's unfortunate Caleb will not be with us this season," Richt said.

It has been 13 years since periodic cicadas last emerged in Georgia. Brood XIX is expected to emerge through June. Within a couple of months, the cicadas will emerge, mate, lay eggs and die. Once the last of the brood dies, the periodic cicadas will not be seen again until 2024. University of Georgia entomologists are asking for the public’s help in tracking these infrequently seen insects. UGA has requested citizens take photos of cicadas and shed cicada skins and send them to Insects@uga.edu. Researchers also ask that submissions include the date and location where the cicada or cicada skin was photographed. Periodic cicadas are approximately an inch and a half long. They emerge in the spring and have bright red eyes with orange-veined …
