Athens, Ga – Georgia will get the chance to cleanse itself from the first loss of 2025 to Alabama last Saturday night. Kentucky has made its way to Sanford Stadium for a noon matinee.

Georgia has preached trying to move on this week.

“Our guys are fired up,” head coach Kirby Smart told reporters. We got work done yesterday, and a bunch of them came in. And I think when you see our guys, you realize how invested they are when they’re hurt. It’s good when guys hurt because you hurt relative to how invested you are in something. I know our guys will have good energy today.”

Defensive lineman Jordan Hall chimed in about his excitement as well.

“I would want to play right now if I could,” Hall told reporters. “We’ve got eight more games to go. The season didn’t start, and the season did not end with Alabama. That’s one thing we’ve got to get through our heads. I feel like all the guys matter if you’re stuck on a loss or not, I mean, we’ve got Kentucky in four or five days. So everything that happened in the past has been in the past for a reason… We had an opportunity to do it on Saturday. We didn’t get that done. So now it’s on to the next.”

The Wildcats come in 2-2 after a 35-13 loss to South Carolina last weekend in Columbia. Georgia head coach Kirby Smart has gone 9-0 against Kentucky in his time in Athens.

The Bulldogs came away with a 13-12 win in Lexington last season.
