Traditions One prominent tradition associated with the Bulldogs is running through hedges at Sanford Stadium before each home game which started when former head coach Erk Russell brought back an old military tradition from World War II called “running throughthe gauntlet”. Another popular pregame ritual is singing “Glory Glory” while forming a large circle around midfieldwith players linking arms together prior to kickoff. Additionally fans typically stand up during third down conversionsand repeat calls such as ‘Go Dawgs’, ‘Gata,’ or other fan created chants throughout games held at Sanford stadium especiallyduring key moments like interceptions , sacksor touchdowns scored by either side.. After every win there Is usuallya small gathering outside Butts Meher Hall located near Stegeman Coliseum where several coaches will come out givetheir postgame speech followed shortly afterwards by thousands chanting “”How bout them dawgs?” Future Outlook Under Coach Kirby Smart more success appears likelyfor this powerhouse SEC progam As he continues building upon previous successes amassing topnotch recruiting classes yearafter year it looks like Bulldog faithful can expect even more wins trophies rings conferencedivision titles And possibly national championships addedto already impressive resume For years tocome .
