The Georgia Bulldogs are on the cusp of history as they prepare to face off against their in-state rivals, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. A win on Friday night would not only extend their winning streak over Georgia Tech to seven games but also tie an SEC record for most consecutive home wins.
Currently, Georgia has won 30 straight home games, matching Florida’s record and trailing only Alabama’s 31-game streak from 2015 to 2019. With a victory over Georgia Tech, the Bulldogs would match this record and set their sights on breaking it next season.
However, the stakes are higher than just a record. A win would likely secure Georgia’s spot in the College Football Playoff and maintain their momentum heading into the SEC Championship game next weekend. A loss, on the other hand, could jeopardize their playoff hopes and leave them vulnerable to a potential upset in the championship game.
Georgia Tech, meanwhile, is looking to spoil the Bulldogs’ plans and snap their six-game losing streak in the series. The Yellow Jackets have shown flashes of brilliance this season, but consistency has been their downfall.
As the two teams prepare to clash, the atmosphere in Athens is electric. The Bulldogs are hungry for history, and a win over Georgia Tech would be the perfect way to cap off the regular season. Will Georgia prevail and tie the SEC record, or will Georgia Tech pull off the upset? Only time will tell.
