WATCH: Georgia releases "Pursue Better" game trailer for Kentucky
Georgia will open SEC play on Saturday and it’ll do so on the road. The No. 1-ranked Bulldogs are in the Blue Grass State to take on 1-1 Kentucky. The Bulldogs have won 41 consecutive regular-season games and they last lost to Kentucky in 2009. It last lost to the Wildcats in Lexington all the way back in 2006.
Before it all goes down, Georgia’s video team is getting fans fired up with the weekly game trailer. This one is titled “Pursue Better,” and it is narrated by senior wideout Arian Smith.

“You satisfied yet? We’re just getting started,” Smith said in the video. “You’ve got to want it, one percent better, every day. Dogs, they want more. Never satisfied.”
Georgia is taking on a wounded Kentucky team, both literally and figuratively. The Wildcats have a long availability/injury report with several players out for this game. They also got embarrassed by South Carolina last week.
The Gamecocks suffocated the UK offense in Lexington and returned to the Palmetto State with a win. But when Kirby Smart spoke to reporters earlier this week, he didn’t utter a word about the Cats’ struggles last week. He understands that his team has to play well, on the road, in the SEC, at night.
“I don’t know. I think it’s all about perception and how you perceive things,” the Georgia head coach said on Monday. “They’re just as dangerous whether they won or lost that game, in my opinion. I mean, I don’t get into the whole, you know — we’re gonna prepare the same way regardless of what happened in that game, you know? A lot of things went wrong quickly for them in that game, and it snowballed in some ways. I know what they’re capable of. I’ve seen them on tape. I know the football players they got, I know how physical they are, I know how they’re coached, and we’ve got to get ready for a really tough opponent.”
