G-Day is right around the corner and will once again end Georgia’s spring season like it has every other year. This event once again is open to the public, but unfortunately it will not be televised on national TV.
The game will be streamed on ESPN+ and SECN+, so fans will have an option to watch the game from home if they can’t make it to Athens. They will have to pay to watch it from home, but that is much better than what most other fanbases across the SEC have to deal with.
In fact, Kirby Smart and Georgia are just one of three SEC schools that are brave enough to televise their spring games this year.
Shout out to @AggieFootball and @GeorgiaFootball for streaming their spring games this weekend.

Your fanbases are grateful.
To the rest of you... SHAME YOU COWARDS
Kirby Smart is bold enough to televise Georgia’s spring game
The above report from Brooks Austin indicates that Georgia and Texas A&M are two schools in the SEC that are televising their spring games this year. He later reported that Texas will also televise their game as well, so that makes just three schools in the SEC that are bold enough to do so.
Spring games have been televised for a long time, so why are teams choosing to stop? It’s simple, they want to give away as little information as possible to the teams they will play this season.
While that may seem like a good reason, is anyone sure that teams can learn that much from watching their spring games? For starters, the season is still months away, so there is plenty of time for team to change what schemes they run compared to what they ran during their spring game. On top of that, there will be plenty of film to watch film from actual games this season, so what’s even the point of looking at spring film?
Thankfully this is something that doesn’t seem to bother Smart, so fans will be able to enjoy G-Day in the comfort of their homes while most of the conference doesn’t get that luxury.
