Georgia football vs. Auburn Week 6 preview: Where to watch, injuries, and odds
Georgia football welcomes its first SEC home opponent to Athens this season, and it’s the Auburn Tigers for the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry. While Auburn shouldn’t give the Dawgs too much of a test, Georgia has to come out with a massive chip on its shoulder to beat the breaks off the Tigers. No more sloppy play — it’s time to shut down Auburn and move on to the next game.
After its second sloppy win in a row, Georgia dropped to No.2 on the AP Top 25 Poll. That drop in the poll should have happened because the Dawgs did not look like the top team in the country.
Georgia looks to stay undefeated, and this game needs the Dawgs to dominate. Auburn thinks it has a chance against the Dawgs, but the Tigers haven’t won in Athens since 2005. The Dawgs must push down the throttle and keep it down until the SEC West Tigers quit on the field. Georgia knows how to do that against Auburn, and today is no different.
As long as Georgia does its job, it will be a blowout win as they remind everyone who the Dawgs are.
Georgia Football Injury Report vs. Auburn Tigers for Week 6:
The Dawgs are fairly banged up with Jalen Carter not going against Auburn. That front seven will get tested against Auburn without him, but there is still talent there. He has a knee injury that could keep him out for a couple of weeks.
However, Arian Smith should be back for this game, which will help. AD Mitchell could go, but that is likely a game-time decision. He dressed for Missouri but did not play. The Dawgs may not see him today, either.
Nyland Green still has hamstring issues and will not play. Arik Gilbert has an undisclosed situation, and no one really knows if he will play.
Georgia has some guys hurt they need back, so it’ll help the Dawgs down the stretch.
