LEXINGTON, Kent. — It’s Saturday, and you know what that means. It’s time for some Georgia Football, and today the Bulldogs are in the Bluegrass State to take on Kentucky. Mark Stoops’ Wildcats are coming off of a tough loss versus Vanderbilt but would love nothing more than to knock off the top-ranked team in the land, the 10-0 Georgia Bulldogs.

“Hitting the road again, going to a tough place to play in the SEC, which they all are. This is one of the challenging ones. They got a great environment. Mark Stoops has done an incredible job there with the program. Coming off a tough loss against Vandy, I know we’ll get the response from them that you would expect out of a team that’s the quality of Kentucky,” Georgia head coach Kirby Smart said. “They have done a tremendous job the last two or three years with what he’s done with their program. He’s built it through keeping players there, developing players, extremely physical and tough. When you ask our kids over the last two years what the most physical game they played in, to a man, almost everyone of them talks about how physical the Kentucky game was two years ago up there and then at our place last year where they went on a 20-something play drive against our defense to end the game. And their defense is one of the tops in the conference year-in and year-out, but that way this year as well. So a great challenge for us to go on the road, tough environment, day game, and looking forward to the opportunity.”

Georgia and Kentucky have played 75 times coming into Saturday with the Dawgs holding a 61-12-2 advantage over the Cats. Georgia has won 12 in a row in the series including a 30-13 win over a No. 11-ranked Kentucky team that went on to win 10 games for the second time in three seasons under the direction of Mark Stoops. Kentucky’s last win in the series came back in 2009 in Athens meaning it’s been even longer since they beat the Bulldogs in front of a home crowd. That was in 2006 on a rushing touchdown with 1:21 to go in the game to snap a nine-game losing streak in the series. All in all, Georgia has won 30 of 38 games in Lexington. The Bulldogs enter Saturday as 22.5-point favorites according to VegasInsider.
