Kirby Smart and Georgia football are ranked No. 3 in the latest US LBM Coaches Poll released Sunday, Nov. 30.
The Bulldogs moved up a spot after their 16-9 victory over then No. 19 Georgia Tech in Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Georgia (11-1) plays Saturday, Dec. 6, back in the same stadium against No. 10 Alabama (10-2) in the SEC Championship game at 4 p.m. ET on ABC. Alabama defeated rival Auburn 27-20 Saturday night on the road.
The Bulldogs moved up after then No. 3 Texas A&M lost 27-17 to then-No. 16 Texas on Friday night in Austin.
Georgia beat Georgia Tech despite generating just 260 yards of total offense.
“I don’t know why we didn’t play as well today,” Smart said afterwards. “Give them credit, right? Let’s go watch the tape and grow and see what we can do better. But we were not as explosive, and we were able to run the ball some. We missed some shots, and let’s call it what it is. We had a couple shots that, if we make those, we may break the game open, but we didn’t hit them.”
