Georgia-South Carolina: TV, online, radio information

Sept 7, 2018

The No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs began the season Saturday with a 45-0 victory against Austin Peay (an FCS school) at Sanford Stadium, in a game shortened by five minutes at the request of the visiting coach.

This weekend’s opponent should provide a much tougher obstacle, and yes, that’s an understatement.

The Bulldogs are going on the road for their first SEC game – and will face a team that also is ranked. The Gamecocks are at No. 24 in the media and coaches’ polls.
