Georgia football doesn’t need its best game to beat Texas. It just needs a complete one
There have been stretches this season where Georgia has resembled a great team. There have been times when they’ve been sub-standard as well. But to this point, it’s undeniable that UGA has yet to play a complete 60 minutes. More than anything, Kirby Smart wants that to change this week. The Longhorns have won all of their games by double-digits and that is with starting quarterback Quinn Ewers missing multiple games with an injury.

Kirby Smart Press Conference Previewing Texas
“I want to see them play their best game against Texas,” Smart said. “I mean simply, stated, we have not played our best game. We have not put a complete game together, and that’s what every coach’s goal is. Right? To play your best game moving forward. That’s what’s going to be needed to go on the road at Texas and play. We got to play better and that’s the only goal I’m thinking about right now, how we play this week. “Our issues have really been inconsistency, not depth,” Smart said.

Texas Head Coach Steve Sarkisian Presser Previewing Georgia
We’ve got a heck of a challenge this weekend against Georgia. Very good football team. I have a ton of respect for Coach Smart and the job that he’s done at Georgia. They’ve been the standard of college football for the last six, seven years, I think they’ve been to seven SEC championship games. They won three in a row, back-to-back national champs, competed for a third. They’ve recruited really well, they’ve got great schemes, really well coached. I know the moment won’t be too big for them coming into DKR.

Fifth Ranked Georgia Survives MSU - Looks Ahead To #1 Texas
The Georgia Bulldogs hosted the Mississippi State Bulldogs eventually winning 41-31. But, as they say, it wasn’t pretty at times. It was UGA’s 28th straight home victory and improving to 5-1 overall and 3-1 in the Southeastern Conference. As is the case with a lot of Bulldogs games, it was a tale of two halves. The offense had their best game so far against an SEC team with quarterback Carson Beck completing 36 of 48 for a career-high 459 yards and three TDs. The 36 completions tied a team record.

4-1 Georgia Hosts 1-4 Mississippi State Saturday In Athens
UGA has their second straight home game as Mississippi State makes their way to Sanford Stadium on Saturday. The 4-1 Georgia Bulldogs enter this game as huge favorites. Their positioning in the SEC standings was helped a lot last weekend with big losses by undefeated Alabama and Tennessee. After a tough loss to Alabama, they bounced back with a commanding victory against Auburn last weekend. The wide receiver room has thinned with the suspension of Miami transfer, Colbie Young.

Up next, MSU (1-4, 0-2 SEC) visits for the first time since 2020 and just the 16th overall time in Athens. UGA owns a 20-6 advantage over MSU including 12-3 in Athens and 12-1 at Sanford Stadium.

Georgia gets back in win column by fending off Auburn once again
The Georgia football team that took the field Saturday was unlike any other going back to the 2020 season playing at Sanford Stadium. The Bulldogs weren’t unbeaten and not ranked No. 1 or No. 2 like they had been for each home game the past three seasons and the first game between the hedges this season. Ranked fifth this week, Georgia went ahead early and kept Auburn at bay in a 31-13 win in its SEC home opener and first game in Athens in four weeks. Trevor Etienne rushed for 81 yards and two TDs

Alabama blows 28-0 lead, escapes Georgia on late touchdown
Alabama blew a 28-point lead against No. 2 Georgia at Bryant-Denny Stadium on Saturday night. And then the No. 4 Crimson Tide broke the Bulldogs' hearts again in a 41-34 victory in which the SEC heavyweights scored touchdowns on consecutive plays from scrimmage late in the fourth quarter. Alabama didn't seal the victory until cornerback Zabien Brown intercepted quarterback Carson Beck's pass to receiver Colbie Young in the end zone with 43 seconds left to end Georgia's furious rally.

Malaki Starks’ journey to stardom with Georgia football
They slept in hotels. Some nights it was an aunt’s living room, other nights an uncle’s couch. The Starks family of four — mom, dad, daughter and son, Malaki — found shelter wherever they could, depending on the kindness of family and friends or finding the money when they could. Years later, Malaki Starks will say that one of the causes closest to his heart is homelessness because he knows what it was like. Between his 3rd- and 6th-grade, the family experienced it in and around their hometown of Jefferson, Ga.

Kentucky provided slugfest. Toughest schedule in Georgia history heats up next at Alabama
College GameDay was ready to set up camp here Saturday for Georgia-Kentucky until the Wildcats were slapped around by South Carolina. It turns out the matchup was worth the prime-time slot it occupied on ABC. No. 1 Georgia had to dig deep to pull out a tougher-than-anyone-expected 13-12 win at Kroger Field. There are plenty of games that will warrant ESPN’s road show to follow Georgia around like Deadheads or Swifties go from town to town.

Georgia Throttles Tennessee Tech 48-3 In Home Open
Georgia opened at home riding an astounding 40 game regular season winning streak. The media were welcomed to a brand new press box very high up in the clouds Thank goodness for binoculars. Tennessee Tech came in not expecting much except a $550,000 payday to get manhandled for a few hours by the #1 team in the country. And, the Bulldogs let it be known early that manhandling was what they had in store as Carson Beck hit Dylan Bell on the first play on offense with a six second scoring drive.
