Favorite spot on campus:

Dooley Field

One of the newest members of the University of Georgia football team also has one of the longest legacies.

Uga XI, also known as Boom, is a year-old English Bulldog who keeps the Bulldog spirit going on the sidelines. Uga XI received his title in April 2023 and stepped into his new role ahead of the Bulldogs’ 2023 G-Day game in April. He inherited his title from his father, Que, who served as Uga X from 2015 through the Bulldogs’ 2022 National Championship win.

At his collaring ceremony, Boom already weighed the same as his 65-pound dad, but he has a big jersey to fill. Uga X retired as the university’s winningest mascot, with a 91-18 record, back-to-back National Championships, two SEC titles, and multiple bowl wins.

Woof!”

UGA Mascot

Uga XI comes from a long line of solid white English bulldogs, which started with Hood’s Ole Dan, also known as Uga I. He was born in Dec. 1955 and gifted to Sonny and Cecelia Seiler in 1956. He made his first appearance at UGA’s 1956 home opener and was later collared as the university’s official mascot.

Since then, the Seiler family has served as caretakers of the Uga line. Both Uga XI and Que live with the Seiler family in Savannah, as one prepares for his first season on the field and the other enjoys his retirement.

Uga XI’s made his regular season debut on Sept. 2, when the Bulldogs hosted the University of Tennessee-Martin Skyhawks in Sanford Stadium. He has already overseen two UGA victories in Sanford Stadium.
