Georgia football is the No. 1 topic every day on DawgNation Daily — the daily podcast for fans of the Georgia Bulldogs. Catch up on everything happening with UGA athletics with host Brandon Adams and the DawgNation experts as they break down the latest Georgia football recruiting news and discuss coach Kirby Smart’s quest to return the Bulldogs to the top of the college football world. On episode No. 2810 (Oct. 9, 2026) of the podcast, the buildup for Georgia-Alabama undoubtedly indicates this is more than just another game. Even Kirby acknowledges this. But Georgia has lost to the Tide in the regular season the last two years, and it didn’t stop the Dawgs from winning the SEC and getting a high seed in the college football playoff. So how should UGA approach this, knowing it can overcome a loss.
