Georgia, now ranked 29th in the NCAA RPI rankings, faces its fourth top-10 opponent of the season as it welcomes No. 4 Mississippi State to Athens for a critical SEC matchup. Georgia enters on a four-match unbeaten streak, while Mississippi State has won seven straight since losing to No. 3 Wake Forest on Aug. 25 in Winston-Salem. Although Georgia leads the overall series, 16-4-2, the last two matchups have both resulted in hard-fought draws. Mississippi State is the highest-ranked opponent to play at Turner since No. 5 Alabama prevailed, 2-0, in 2022. Georgia is looking for its first win over a top-5 opponent since beating No. 5 LSU in 2021, and the first at home since besting No. 4 Texas A&M on Sept. 27, 2015. During its program history, Georgia is 3-18-1 against top-5 opponents.

The Dan Magill Tennis Complex will see select Bulldogs face student athletes from Florida Atlantic University, Florida Gulf Coast University, Florida State University, Georgia Southern University, Georgia State University, Georgia Tech University, Kennesaw State University, Mercer University, Stetson University, the University of Central Florida, the University of Florida, the University of Miami, the University of North Florida and the University of South Florida.
