Georgia and Texas being an SEC matchup may be weird on the surface, but it’s a battle between two top teams. Texas coach Steve Sarkisian’s comments ahead of the Oklahoma game could be echoed here too.

He said throw the records out when the rivals play and based on the way Georgia and Texas have played recently, you could do the same.

“It’s a rivalry game. Forget whatever we’re favored or we’re not, it doesn’t matter. The records and things don’t matter in games like this,” Sarkisian said .

Kirby Smart might be at a different level than any other coach in college football though. Georgia’s lead received high praise from Mississippi State head coach Jeff Lebby last week.

“As good as there’s ever been,” Lebby said of Smart . “As he’s gotten to Georgia, and now you look at what he’s done over his tenure, it really is second to none. The amount of success he’s had, the years that he’s put back-to-back-to-back — again, it really is the standard right now in college football.

“He’s had a ton of success. To me, he’s done it in a way that has been built to sustain developing high school kids, signing great high school football players from the south and mixing in different pieces positionally. But he’s got a blueprint that is proven and it’s worked.”

Since taking over at Georgia in 2016, Smart has led the program to a 98-17 overall record, something Texas certainly dreamt of, two SEC championships and two national titles. For his efforts, he’s been named the SEC Coach of the Year three times.
