ATHENS, Georgia - August 30: For the first time this season, the Bulldogs will take on an opponent from another university at Sanford Stadium. Fans attending the game can expect a warm welcome from the sun, but a Labor Day without true rest will only be earned through a physically exhausting effort. Georgia and Tennessee State clash in a bid for the program's third national title in six years.
The Tigers had a tough 2-10 season last year, but their defense held opponents to an average of 27 points per game, except for the North Dakota State game where they dominated with a 59-3 victory. Head coach Gunner Stockton and the running backs will be key players in the game, with a focus on the wide receivers due to the disparity in team talent.
The offense is expected to be more dynamic this time around, incorporating new concepts and gadget plays to establish an early lead. The Bulldogs' defense should have no issues facing a Tigers offense that averaged just 13 points per game last season. While the game itself may not be spectacular, it signifies the return of Georgia football.
Fans can expect hot grills, a hotter temperature, and The Who to once again be playing at the Classic City.
