This week, the South's oldest rivalry is re-ignited when the Auburn Tigers and Georgia Bulldogs meet for the 113th time.

Both teams are coming off homecoming wins. Auburn's 63-31 win over Furman catapulted it into the Top 25 in the coaches' poll.

The Bulldogs got some help from the defense to secure the 17-13 win in Auburn.

Ben Tate has rushed for 1,142 yards this season and is 13th on Auburn's single-season rushing chart. Auburn is 10th in the nation in rushing offense averaging 230.0 yards per game. The Bulldogs, on the other hand, are putting up 120.9 yards on the ground.

The Tiger's offense ranks 13th nationally in red zone offense, scoring on 31 of 33 opportunities.

The Tigers have won 10 of their last 13 games at Sanford Stadium.
