Georgia coach Kirby Smart talked up Auburn’s defense as experienced during his press conference Monday in advance of Saturday’s game at Sanford Stadium.

“When you look at them defensively, they’re loaded up front,” Smart said. “They’ve got a lot of big guys. They’ve got a lot of players who play a lot of snaps. I mean they’re experienced across the board.”

Auburn's defense ranks second in the SEC, behind West division champion Alabama, in sacks with 29.

Georgia hosts Auburn at 7 p.m. Saturday (ESPN; News 95.5 and AM-750 WSB).
