The Nov. 15 contest could ultimately decides who gets the first spot in the ’25 conference championship. There’s a strong feeling these two will have two meetings once again.Georgia football under Kirby Smart has fashioned a no-compromise culture where anything less than a championship feels like falling short. For the upcoming 2025 season, expectations aren’t just high—they’re sky-high. Nine years in, Smart’s teams have never dipped below eight wins, consistently making their mark among college football’s elite. But last season slapped a hint of reality in their faces, with the Bulldogs bowing out in the Sugar Bowl to Notre Dame—an exit that stung more than most, coming right after a first-round College Football Playoff bye. Now, with key roster shake-ups—like Carson Beck heading to Miami—the Bulldogs’ landscape is shifting dramatically. Yet, they’ve also snagged some game-changing transfers that might just reshape their destiny. So, as the new season looms, let’s dive into some bold predictions that could define Georgia’s chase for glory.

These three set the tone for the new wave of Bulldog trench dominators.None of Smart’s teams have won below eight games in his nine seasons at Athens. Only one team played in a non-New Year’s Six game — his first one in 2016.The safety Zion brings his own versatility. Except for the defensive side. Smart can use him in coverage or play the 6-foot-2, 210-pounder closer to the line of scrimmage.The trio of Christen Miller, Jordan Hall and Xzavier McLoed are all freakishly strong and athletic inside. Miller runs a reported 4.9 time in the 40-yard dash while carrying a 6-foot-4, 305-pound frame. Hall wins the leverage battle thanks to his past as a high school heavyweight wrestler. He’s also a high-motor pass rusher. McLoed comes over via South Carolina and can disrupt lines as a three-technique.

He also tossed more interceptions with 12 — including firing three apiece against Florida, Texas and Alabama.The slot wide receiver Zachariah will open the offense up. He once drew comparisons to a prime Tyreek Hill by 247Sports out of high school. He’s the needed stretch-the-field threat moving forward against Southeastern Conference foes. And can ignite the return game.The 6-foot-1 Stockton brings a blend of accurate throws and mobility for Georgia. Don’t be shocked if he gets fans saying “Carson who?”

Georgia-Texas will add new layer to growing rivalry 

Stockton now earns QB1 reigns. But he immediately won over Zachariah Branch with his work ethic. Stockton even showed a faster tempo in running the Bulldogs offense when Beck was out. Leading the SEC title win over Texas through his dual-threat capabilities.Except this time the Arch Manning-led Longhorns surpass Georgia for the SEC title.
