Steve Spurrier has ribbed and roasted Georgia a number of times over the years. And even though he hasn’t coached since 2015, Spurrier is still managing to take shots at the Bulldogs.
Speaking on a South Carolina sports-talk station on Wednesday, Spurrier was asked about teams talking trash and potentially hyping up your opponent. And of course he took another shot at Georgia, who he loved to beat.
“If talking mattered, Georgia would’ve beaten us a lot more,” Spurrier said.
Spurrier had a lot of success in his career against Georgia, as he went 16-7 as a head coach in his time at Florida and South Carolina. As Florida’s coach, Spurrier went 11-1 against the Bulldogs.
However, Georgia fans can quickly bring up that the last time they play Spurrier, Georgia rolled to a 52-20 win. In the game, Greyson Lambert torched the South Carolina defense, as he completed 24 of his 25 passes for 330 yards and 3 touchdowns.
Last season, Georgia beat both Florida and South Carolina on its way to an SEC title last season. Georgia opens its 2018 season against Austin Peay on Sept. 1 and then visits South Carolina on Sept. 8.
