Georgia begins its 132nd season of football with Kirby Smart starting his eighth year at the helm. Smart’s Bulldogs are 81-15 during this time with national championships in 2021 and 2022. The Bulldogs rank ninth all-time in victories with 868.
Due to the cancelation of a previously scheduled matchup at Oklahoma (who now will join the SEC in 2024), Georgia plays host to four consecutive games to start the campaign and seven total in 2023. The last time the Bulldogs played four straight contests in Sanford Stadium was in 2004, topping Marshall, LSU and Vanderbilt before falling to Tennessee in those showdowns.
The last schedule that featured four home games to start a season was in 1999. That year, the Bulldogs went 4-0, beating Utah State, USC, UCF and LSU.
Two of Georgia’s first non-conference opponents, UT Martin and Ball State, the Bulldogs have never faced. Georgia has played UAB twice, winning both, including a 56-7 rout in 2021.
Georgia’s final home game is versus Ole Miss. The Rebels will be the Western Division crossover and will be making their first trip to Athens since 2012. The Bulldogs ran away with that contest, 37- 10. The most recent meeting with the Rebels came in 2016 in Oxford where Ole Miss claimed a victory.
