ATHENS â Georgiaâs penchant for preventing big plays under Kirby Smart is well-known, but it figures to be put to the test at Mississippi State.

Someone’s borrowing my material, eh griff?
OK fellas in the backfield, just touch, don't hang on. By now, even the youngest of you should be able to sense the ball coming. Keep touching, but LOOK BACK TOWARD THE BALL…they cut you more slack if you look ball hungry.
Yes, @NCMtnDawg I would love to see our guys go for the ball. I don't know whether the officials will be on their side, but I would like to see it. This is like any other defensive play: see ball, get ball. Also, do not get beat, jump routes, play all the way through the catch to dislodge the ball. Hit, and hit hard…. legally!
"Perhaps just as important, Smart said his defensive backs play and carry themselves with confidence, too."
@MikeGriffith I heard Kevin Butler mention on his radio show earlier this morning that UGA will be without a starting Safety for the first half of the game today. I assume he is referring to KJ Bolden, who was ejected in the first half of the UF game for targeting. If I understand correctly, he should be eligible for the entire game today since he was ejected in the first half of the UF game (unless I have mis-remembered and it actually happened in the second half). Can you please provide some clarification on that situation? Thanks!
GO DAWGS!
LMAO…every team we have faced has passed on our defense. This article sounds like this is the first team we have played that throws the balll…gezzz Ole Miss scored on its first 5 drives and not by running the ball🤷♂️
Can someone inform Dawgnation they have the wrong kickoff date for Mississippi State on the main page, it should be 11/08/2025, not 10/18/2025.
@Gramster Kirby Smart said that about the team after Ole Miss …. but yeah, that's what they have been!
