Former University of Georgia quarterback David Greene recently finished hosting his third season of “Film Room” on the SEC Network and was recognized at this month’s Southeastern Conference title matchup in Atlanta as the MVP of the 2002 game.
Greene was a guest this week of “Press Row” on ESPN 105.1 FM.
Q: You beat Alabama twice when you played at Georgia, yet you weren’t booed by Tide or Florida fans at the SEC title game. How is that possible?
A: “I thought I heard some boos. I was glad they called me early, because the Florida fans went nuts for (Tim) Tebow, and the Alabama fans had to do the same when their guys were called. They couldn’t be upstaged, so they went nuts, too.
“There were guys who really got booed. If you played at Auburn, you were in bad shape.”
