Top-ranked, reigning national champion Georgia ventures to Starkville for a Saturday night Southeastern Conference battle at David-Wade Stadium with the Maroon Bulldogs.
Georgia heads into the game with a perfect 9-0 record, 6-0 in the Southeastern Conference. If the Bulldogs beat Mississippi State, or if Georgia comes up short and then beats Kentucky the following Saturday in Lexington, it’s off to the Southeastern Conference Championship Game for the fifth time in the last six seasons.
Mississippi State is 6-3, and 3-3 in the SEC. This past Saturday, MSU beat Auburn 39-33 in overtime. The three losses for State have all come on the road, as the Maroon Bulldogs have fallen at LSU, Kentucky and Alabama.
