UGA Football: Georgia-Cincinnati to Play in Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl

ATHENS — The University of Georgia will play Cincinnati of the American Athletic Conference in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl scheduled for Jan. 1, 2021, in Atlanta, the College Football Playoff committee announced Sunday.

Kickoff for the game between the ninth-ranked Bulldogs (7-2) and the eighth-ranked Bearcats (9-0) is scheduled for 12 noon ET and be televised on ESPN. This will be the third all-time meeting between the programs.  The Bulldogs won both previous contests: 35-13 in Cincinnati in 1942 and 31-17 in Athens in 1976.

“The challenges of this season have been many for every team and I’m certainly excited for our team and especially our seniors to have the opportunity to play in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl which is annually one of the premier New Year’s Six games during the holiday season,” said UGA head coach Kirby Smart.  “This is close to home and a venue we are very familiar with; however, none of our players and only a couple of our coaches have had the opportunity to participate in this game.  We’re also looking forward to the challenge of playing a quality opponent in Cincinnati. Coach Fickell has done a remarkable job with two 11-win seasons the last two years and a perfect season this year.”

SO WE DECIDED TO MAKE A PLACE FOR BEHIND THE SCENES RECRUITING AND TEAM INFO


Field St Forum VIP Page


Many of our regulars have asked for years how they can contribute and help with the website. Well, we figured out a way for you to do that and get something in return!

We’ve created a FSF VIP Experience. There are two levels/tiers that we believe are very fair. On Tier 1 we’ll talk the latest info that is happening with the team and in recruiting. This will be more short snippets, like “this 5* let us know that he is planning to visit this weekend”.

Tier 2 is set up as longer posts that go into more detail. One we have up already is the behind the scenes story on the Reuben Foster recruitment, how many times he committed to UGA that we know of, and what led to him choosing Alabama. We’ll post on former and current recruitments and on current and former team news that we’ve been privy to. We’ll also do a monthly recruiting chat and a no holds barred podcast with special guests.

Come join us, you’ll be happy that you did!!!
