STARKVILLE, Miss. — Georgia is without sophomore wide receiver AD Mitchell for its road trip to Mississippi State on Saturday. Mitchell suffered an ankle sprain in Georgia’s second game of the season and has played just four snaps since – appearing briefly against Auburn. He has missed the last three games (Vanderbilt, Florida, Tennessee) entirely.

DawgsHQ did report this week that AD Mitchell had made steps in the right direction before suffering a setback on the back half of the week. At this point in time, the expectation is for him to be able to return at some point in the 2022 season, potentially even before the end of the regular season.

Kickoff time for tonight’s contest is set for 7:00 p.m. ET on ESPN. Below, DawgsHQ provides links for you to stream the game live, listen in, and follow along with the live stats.

“We opened our start of work on Mississippi State today. Took a day in the bye week to work towards these guys. Very different,” Smart said in his opening remarks to Mississippi State week on Monday. “Really different in two ways. Different defensively. Their defensive coordinator does an incredible job. Different kind of scheme than we faced before. And then offensively, obviously, they’re very different. And people would probably think they’re similar to Tennessee. But they’re really not similar to Tennessee. So it’s become a third week of facing a different kind of offense in terms of what they do offensively. And very, very few of our calls and schemes carry over from one week to the next when you play this offense. So it’s a new challenge for our guys. And I know our guys will be excited getting ready for it. It’s an extremely tough place to play. A place I’ve been many times. Their environment is electric. It’ll be at night. And their guys play really hard and they’re really physical. We saw that, you know, a couple years ago, here at home against them.”

Georgia and Mississippi State have met 25 times prior to Saturday’s matchup with Georgia holding a 19-6 overall advantage, the last coming in 2020 when JT Daniels found Jermaine Burton for 197 yards and a pair of touchdowns on his way to 401 yards passing and a 31-24 win between the hedges. This is just the seventh meeting in Starkville where Georgia has won four out of the previous six.
