You’ll be hearing a lot of Brad Nessler, Gary Danielson and Jamie Erdahl during Georgia’s next three games.

The No. 2 Bulldogs (5-0, 3-0 SEC) travel Saturday to Auburn to face the No. 18-ranked Tigers (4-1, 1-0) in the SEC’s featured game at 3:30 p.m. on CBS. Auburn came from behind to defeat LSU 24-19 late Saturday.

On Monday, CBS announced the Saturday, Oct. 16, game against now-16th ranked Kentucky will, too, be the featured game at 3:30 p.m. on the network. The Wildcats (5-0, 3-0 SEC) upset the 10th-ranked Gators 20-13 Saturday in Gainesville, Fla. The SEC hit Kentucky with a $250,000 fine after its fans rushed the field following the win.

Georgia has won the last 11 meeting against Kentucky, including a run-heavy 14-3 victory last season in Lexington, Ky.

Before the season’s start, the CBS named the annual grudge match between Georgia and Florida in Jacksonville, Fla., as its featured 3:30 p.m. game of Oct. 30.
