Alabama is the last team to beat Georgia (2023 SEC Championship Game), and the last team to register a regular season home win over the Bulldogs when they did it in Tuscaloosa on Oct. 17, 2020. Georgia’s last regular season loss came on Nov. 7, 2020 to Florida in Jacksonville. Since then, the Bulldogs have won 42 in a row during the regular season. UA leads the all-time series over Georgia 43-26-4.

Georgia’s last win over the Crimson Tide came on Jan. 10, 2022 by a score of 33-18 and delivered the Bulldogs their first national championship since 1980. It capped a 14-1 season. Then, Georgia became the first team in the CFP-era to repeat as champions, going 15-0 in 2022. The Bulldogs went 12-0 in 2023 before falling to the Tide.

Georgia hasn’t played host to Alabama since 2015, and on Saturday, Sept. 28, the Bulldogs return to Tuscaloosa for the second time since 2020. The Crimson Tide will visit Dooley Field at Sanford Stadium in 2025.

The last three meetings with the Crimson Tide came in the postseason, two in the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta and one in the CFP National Championship in Indianapolis.

2021 SEC CG: #4 UA def. #1 UGA 41-24
2022 CFP Title: #3 UGA def. #1 UA 33-18
2023 SEC CG: #8 UA def. #1 UGA 27-24

The ESPN College GameDay crew will be on site for the Georgia-Alabama game.
