RUMOR: Georgia vs. Iowa game coming into fruition?

RUMOR: Following two cancellations, could we see a possible Georgia football vs. Iowa football Saturday matchup?

Twitter is currently buzzing with rumors of a Georgia vs. Iowa matchup happening this Saturday, Dec. 19.

Georgia’s game against Vanderbilt, which was postponed from the original date of Dec. 5, was officially cancelled on Monday due to COVID-19.  The 6-2 Iowa Hawkeyes were set to play Michigan this Saturday but that game was also cancelled due to COVID-19 concerns.

The reason there is so much buzz for this game to happen is because positive test results came back from Vanderbilt and Michigan, while Georgia and Iowa currently have no positive COVID-19 tests.

This game is a far stretch from happening.  Conferences agreed to keep regular season play to in-conference only this year and there are only so many days to hammer out all the logistics between the two teams as well as the Big Ten and SEC.  No official reports of this game have been released, they are all rumors and speculation.

Although it’s not likely, Georgia head coach Kirby Smart told Sandra Golden of 680 The Fan that the Dawgs are still looking for an opponent for Saturday to get their 10th and final game of the regular season played.

Georgia was set to have its Senior Day this Saturday against Vanderbilt.
