The Georgia Bulldogs have defeated the Auburn Tigers eight consecutive times. Georgia topped Auburn 31-13 behind a strong showing from running back Trevor Etienne, who recorded two touchdowns.
Georgia, unlike Alabama, did not have a let down following last week. Georgia quarterback Carson Beck had an efficient performance, completing 23 of 29 passes for 240 yards and two touchdowns as Georgia moved to 4-1.
Georgia avoided an upset at home on a week of upsets in college football. Four top 10 teams in the US LBM Coaches Poll lost in Week 6. Alabama, Tennessee, Michigan and Missouri all lost in conference games.
Georgia and Auburn both played a clean game with no turnovers. Georgia slightly outgained Auburn, but dominated in the most important situations.
Georgia defensive lineman Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins and safety Malaki Starks both had strong games for the Georgia defense, which limited Auburn’s offense, but allowed the Tigers to have success on the ground.

People are going to bash me for this but I wish Hugh Freeze would sit down and find two good coordinators and let them coach and scheme.
Hugh Freeze has done well recruiting but I don't think you win football games because of his coaching.

The only legit team in college football is Texas and that’s that. Georgia and Bama? both frauds. That’s all.
