In case you’re not that much of a sport’s fan, let’s catch you up for a second! On Monday, January 9th, 2023, the National Championship Game is coming up for the big college football conference. As we all know, TCU is facing Georgia in the National Championship Game for the big title. This is Georgia’s chance to get a back-to-back win, which to this day, I don’t believe any other school has been able to do. Georgia has quite possibly the cutest school mascot ever and his name is Uga. He, of course, is a bull dog representing Georgia’s team animal.

Unfortunately, though, Uga will not be traveling to Los Angeles for the big game. But don’t worry – the reason isn’t anything sad or anything like that!

Let’s see why Uga won’t be traveling to L.A. for the National Championship Game!

Of course, distance and time are taking a factor into this. Upon doing just a tad bit of research, one single non-stop flight from Georgia to Los Angeles takes is roughly 7 – 8 hours long, which is already long enough for a human, let alone a furry little friend.

Another factor going into why Uga will not be traveling to the National Championship Game, is his age. He is 9 years old, which unfortunately, is no Spring chicken. It’s just simply too hard for him to travel at this stage of his life, as it can be a mildly traumatic experience for some pets.

Teams have already started touching down in Los Angeles in preparation for tomorrow night’s game, which starts at 6:30 PM CST!

Uga not traveling raises one question: will Georgia still have the chance to win the National Championship Game now that Uga will not be attending the game? Is him not coming the curse and end all of their chance at a second back-to-back championship?

Hot. This dog joined his 3-year old human sibling in a time out and it’s taking over the internet by storm!!!!. light

What do you think about Uga not traveling to the National Championship Game? What do you make of Georgia’s chances now that their beloved mascot won’t be attending tomorrow night? Be sure to tune in tomorrow night at 6:30 PM CST! And as always…Woof, Woof!
