This much-awaited matchup hits TV screens Saturday, September 27 at 7:30 p.m. on ABC, with Georgia holding a 4-point edge.
At 3-0, Georgia stayed perfect this year. Their latest win? A gut-wrenching overtime battle at Tennessee. The victory stretched their dominance to nine straight wins over the Vols, with five coming on Tennessee's turf.
Now comes two weeks of prep, before a chance to break the Alabama curse. Georgia's record against the Tide tells a tough story - just one victory in their past 10 tries. Their last win during regular play dates to '07, when they stunned Tuscaloosa in overtime.
At home, Georgia stands tall. No team has won at Sanford since South Carolina knocked off the Bulldogs in 2019. Six years of pure dominance on their own field.
