Fran Brown, former UGA football assistant, thanks Kirby Smart after Syracuse upsets Miami
In a weekend of college football chaos, Syracuse upset No. 6 Miami 42-38.
Syracuse coach Fran Brown, previously was a defensive backs assistant at Georgia from 2022-2023, gave Kirby Smart a shoutout during his postgame interview.
“Hey Kirby Smart, thank you for that message earlier, Kirby. Means so much to me, Coach Smart. I appreciate you, I love you. Thank you,” Brown said.
Brown has led Syracuse to nine wins in his first year as head coach.
The win on Saturday knocked Miami out of the ACC Championship.
