[Top Row Dawg]

After playing one of the toughest schedules in school history, the 5th ranked Bulldogs return to the SECCG for the fourth straight year. Georgia will be the visiting team. 

Once again, ESPN College GameDay and SEC Nation will be in Atlanta for the game.

The Bulldogs wrapped up the regular season with three straight victories in Athens to extend its school record and FBS-leading streak of consecutive home wins to 31. 

In the Kirby Smart era, the Bulldogs have won the SEC in 2017 and 2022, beating No. 4 Auburn and No. 14 LSU in the SECCG. 

In rematches during a season under Smart, the Bulldogs are 2-0 

2017 lost at No. 10 AU 40-17 in regular season, won 28-7 over No. 4 AU in SECCG.
2021 lost to No. 4 Alabama 41-24 in SECCG, won 33-18 over No. 1 Alabama in CFP National Championship.

The Bulldogs are making their fourth straight appearance in the SEC Championship Game (SECCG) and seventh overall trip under Kirby Smart. Florida is the only school to have an SECCG streak longer as it went to five straight from 1992-96. 

In school history, Georgia has won the SEC title 14 times (2nd most in SEC), the last one coming in 2022 over LSU. The Bulldogs are 4-7 in the SECCG.

We have a chance to go 4 more 56 - 2 or 56 - 3

I was worried if we lost that we would lose tie breaker against Bama and Ole Miss again with three losses each and head to head losses. But then I realized we don't have the same record. We have 10 wins they only have 9. Advantage Georgia.

Georgia-Texas Tidbits

First Meeting: Georgia entered the 1949 Orange Bowl on an eight-game winning streak and No. 8 AP ranking. Texas was 6-3-1 and playing in its first Orange Bowl and posted a 41-28 win. UT ran 58 times for 324 yards and five TDs, including 107 yards and a score by Tom Landry (eventual Dallas Cowboys Hall of Fame coach) in his final game.

Second Meeting: The 1957 contest came at Grant Field in Atlanta in front of a crowd of 33,000 and was the first game of 33-year-old Darrell Royal's tenure at UT as the Longhorns won 26-7.

Third Meeting: In 1958 in Austin, Georgia was trailing 6-0 early in the 4th quarter when future Hall of Famer Fran Tarkenton put himself in (coaches had planned to redshirt him as the 3rd-string QB) when he saw starting QB Charlie Britt still sitting on the bench as the team took the field. He ran in and told his teammates, "I've come to win this game." He directed a 21-play, 95-yard TD drive along with a two-point conversion for an 8-6 edge. UT answered with a 17-play, 72-yard TD drive capped by a 1-yard run by Bobby Gurwitz to lift 11th-ranked Texas to a 13-8 win.

Fourth Meeting: Ask a Georgia fan what time it is in Texas and you'll likely hear it's Ten to Nine! In the 1984 Cotton Bowl, UT entered 11-0 and ranked No. 2 with a shot at its fifth national championship if it beat No. 7 Georgia (9-1-1). Down 9-3 with less than five minutes left, the Bulldogs took advantage of a muffed punt return by Craig Curry at the UT 24. Gary Moss recovered it and Georgia later scored on a 17-yard scamper by QB John Lastinger with 3:22 remaining for a 10-9 lead as Vince Dooley's Dogs claimed the upset and finished with a No. 4 ranking.

Fifth Meeting: Sam Ehlinger finished with three rushing TDs and 169 passing yards to lead Tom Herman's UT squad to a 28-21 upset of No. 6 Georgia in the 2019 Sugar Bowl. The Bulldogs finished 11-3 and ranked No. 7 while UT ended the season 10-4 and No. 9.

Sixth Meeting: 2024 - Trevor Etienne scored three TDs, Peyton Woodring made three fields goals, Jalon Walker notched three sacks and Daylen Everette had seven tackles, an INT, a sack, forced fumble and fumble recovery to lead the Bulldogs in providing Kirby Smart with his 100th career victory.

Seventh Meeting: I think the Dawgs are gonna take em.
