ATHENS, Ga. -- Kirby Smart was still talking a mile a minute during the final seven and a half minutes of his postgame press conference on Saturday. His inflection rarely dropped and he had no problem cracking a couple jokes or boasting a big ole smile on his face.
Powering through a hard-fought 13-7 win over No. 9 Auburn in a roller coaster first season as Georgia's head coach will make a man do funny things. With the Bulldogs thwarting Auburn's SEC and playoff plans while becoming bowl eligible in the process, Smart finally got his first signature win at Georgia.
