Georgia and Tennessee became an annual matchup when the league expanded in 1992. The constant back and forth elevated it into a rivalry.

Injuries have been a major story on Georgia offensive line to start the season, forcing the Bulldogs to mix and match.

Mississippi State, Oklahoma, Arch Manning, Tennessee's transfer QB and Kalen DeBoer are heating up, while Georgia's offense and Billy Napier are feeling the chill.

Tennessee and a raucous Neyland Stadium crowd will aim to make things difficult for a UGA team lacking many of the key pieces from past squads that had success vs. the Vols.

“He knows what he’s fighting for and what he’s playing for,” UGA coach Kirby Smart said.

Georgia wrapped up the Austin Peay game with a 17-play, 99-yard drive, but the Bulldogs can’t expect to replicate that formula against a salty Tennessee defense.

‘He’ll be out for a little bit,’ Bulldogs coach says of the freshman.

The Bulldogs fell two spots to No. 6 as they head to Knoxville to take on the 15th-ranked Volunteers, who moved up from No. 22.
