AU-UGA by the numbers

There's a section of Georgia's weekly notes package that has a page

called "The last time," which runs down the last instances where a

certain team or individual statistical plateau was hit in a game. It's

interesting stuff that appeals to the stat nerd in me...and the

Auburn-Georgia series is all over the list, both good and bad.
