Georgia football will hit the halfway point of their seson this weekend when they hit the road to take on rival Auburn. The Tigers present a huge opportunity for Georgia to prove they are one of the best teams in the SEC, but at the same time a loss would all but ruin UGA's season.

So what are the biggest questions facing Georgia entering this game? These five questions stand out more than anything else as they will be the reason Georgia defeats Auburn for the ninth year in a row or fall to 4-2 with a loss.

1. Can Georgia handle the travel?

Jordan-Hare Stadium is known for being one of the toughest environments to play in, especially at night. Unfortunately that is what faces Georgia this weekend as kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 pm EST.

Thankfully Georgia has experience they can draw on from this season when they beat Tennessee in Knoxville earlier this season. But if Georgia is going to win this game, they are going to have to find a way to take the crowd out of the game. The best way to do that is by starting fast on both sides of the ball. Unfortunately that has been a struggle for Georgia this season, but that is one of the most important things for the Bulldogs to accomplish on Saturday night.
