This game with Mississippi State provides Georgia with the first of three opportunities it will have to show the College Football Playoff committee that it should remain No. 1 going into the playoff. The Bulldogs are heavily favored Saturday and should be against Kentucky and Georgia Tech.
But there’s a reason that coaches hate to look beyond the next game: Land mines are everywhere. If Georgia can avoid them in Starkville, the Bulldogs will capture the SEC East title for the fifth time under coach Kirby Smart. Georgia is 75-15 with Smart as coach, and the Bulldogs have won 67 of their past 77 games and 31 of their past 34.
