ATHENS - Former Georgia Bulldogs coach Mark Richt was the narrator this week's trailer for the Bulldogs' game with Missouri.
Richt was the head coach at Georgia from 2001-15. He will be honored this weekend after the Redcoat Band's performance at halftime. Richt won two SEC titles in his time at Georgia.
Meanwhile, the Bulldogs have won the SEC East once more. Still, Georgia has two games remaining in the SEC in 2021 - with the clash against Missouri serving as the final home game for the Bulldogs.
Georgia Clinches Fourth SEC Eastern Division Title In Five Years
The Bulldogs clinched a spot in the 2021 SEC Championship Game with their 34-7 win over Florida and teamed with Kentucky’s 31-17 loss at Mississippi State over the weekend. Georgia tied the record for the earliest (Oct. 30) in league history to clinch, joining Auburn (2004) and Alabama (1993). This will mark the Bulldogs’ fourth trip to the SECCG in the last five years (2017-19) during Kirby Smart’s sixth year as head coach. Georgia will make its ninth appearance in the SECCG where the Dogs are 3-5, winning titles in 2002, 2005 and 2017.
Dogs Atop The Polls
For the fourth straight week, Georgia is ranked No. 1 in the AP/Coaches polls. This marks the first time since the 2008 preseason that the Bulldogs have carried the top ranking in both polls. During the 1982 regular season, the Bulldogs were ranked No. 1 for five straight weeks.
The last time Georgia was No. 1 in the College Football Playoff poll was for two weeks during the 2017 season (Oct. 31, Nov. 7). The first 2021 CFP ranking will be re- leased on Tuesday.
Georgia-Missouri Series History
The Bulldogs hold a 9-1 edge in the series history with Missouri. The first meeting came in the 1960 Orange Bowl in Miami, and the Bulldogs posted a 14-0 victory to cap a 10-1 season under coachWallace Butts. The Bulldogs have faced theTigers just 10 times because they did not play again until Missouri joined the SEC in 2012. That year, the Tigers played host to Georgia in their first-ever SEC contest.
