Following the retirement of Uga X, 10-month old puppy Boom assumed the vaunted role of Georgia's on-field mascot in 2023. Currently, Uga XI has a career record of 24-3.

Georgia's 30-15 win over top-ranked Texas in Austin this year came in front of the largest crowd ever at DKR-Memorial Stadium (105,215). The Texas crowd ranked seventh in Bulldog history. Georgia has faced Tennessee in Knoxville multiple times in front of larger crowds with the biggest ever in 2005 when 108,470 watched No. 5 Georgia beat No. 7 Tennessee 27-14. 

Nielsen shared its first-ever college football conference champions and overall team rankings based on total season average viewership, and the Georgia Bulldogs were the most-watched team of both the SEC and the 2024 regular season.
