UGA football is 18-3 in its last 21 games against Georgia Tech
The Georgia Bulldogs are hitting the road to play the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets in Atlanta, Georgia. The Georgia-Georgia Tech game kicks off at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 25 and will be televised on ABC.
Georgia Tech began Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate with a decent record, but the Yellow Jackets have struggled against Georgia recently. Georgia has won the last five meetings between the rivals.
Georgia enters the 2023 edition of the Georgia Tech rivalry as the No. 1 in the country. The Bulldogs are 11-0 and likely headed for the College Football Playoff.
Let’s take a look back at the series history between Georgia and Georgia Tech:
Georgia Tech’s highest-ranked commitment in the class of 2024 has decommitted from the Yellow Jackets
Georgia Tech’s highest-ranked commit in the class of 2024, Christopher “CJ” Jackson, has decommitted from the Yellow Jackets.
Jackson, a member of the class of 2024, is the No. 64 recruit in his recruiting cycle. Jackson is the No. 7 edge rusher in the country and the No. 10 recruit in Georgia, per On3.
Jackson is a pass rusher for Tucker High School in Tucker, Georgia. Tucker is located near Atlanta, Georgia.
The four-star edge rusher has received an invitation to the 2024 Under Armour All-America Game.
Kirby Smart and Georgia football could be a school to watch for Jackson. Jackson decommitted from Georgia Tech shortly after the Yellow Jackets lost to Bowling Green.
The 6-foot-4, 220-pound pass rusher shows good speed, quickness at the snap and good effort in pursuit. Jackson frequently beats opposing offensive tackles to the inside and takes the quickest path to the quarterback on stunts.

Georgia Bulldogs tight end Brett Seither was one of three UGA tight ends in the transfer portal
Georgia Bulldogs tight end Brett Seither is transferring to Georgia Tech. Seither joined a pair of Georgia tight ends, Arik Gilbert and Ryland Goede, in the transfer portal this offseason.
Seither is expected to have two years of eligibility left.
The 6-foot-5, 230-pound tight end played special teams and hauled in three catches for 42 yards and a touchdown in Georgia’s 2021 college football season. Seither, who won a pair of national titles during his time at Georgia, is expected to have a larger role with the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.
Georgia remains stacked at tight end. The Bulldogs return Brock Bowers and Oscar Delp for the 2023 college football season. Additionally, Georgia has a loaded class of 2023 at the tight end position.
Seither redshirted during the 2019 season as a freshman. Seither appeared in both the Arkansas State and Murray State games.

Seither came to Athens, Georgia, as a three-star prospect in the class of 2019 out of Clearwater Central Catholic High School. Seither originally committed to Georgia over Alabama.
Seither will have multiple years of eligibility wherever he decides to transfer. He helped provide depth to Georgia’s team during the College Football Playoff when he could have easily entered the transfer portal.
UGA offensive analyst Buster Faulkner will serve as the offensive coordinator for Georgia Tech
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and new head coach Brent Key have found their offensive coordinator. Georgia Tech reportedly plucked away Buster Faulkner of Georgia’s staff to be their offensive coordinator.
Who is Buster Faulkner? Faulkner has previously served as the offensive coordinator at Middle Tennessee, Arkansas State, and most recently Southern Mississippi.
Faulkner, who is from Lilburn, Georgia, attended college at Valdosta State. Faulkner has served as an offensive analyst at Georgia for the past three seasons.
The Bulldogs have had a very innovative offense in recent seasons under Todd Monken. Faulkner was a key contributor on Georgia’s offensive staff and helped Stetson Bennett be named as a Heisman finalist.

Buster Faulkner has been serving a role where he helps offensive coordinator Todd Monken communicate to Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett.
Kirby Smart has had an excellent coaching staff for the 2022 college football season. Faulkner appears to be the first departure, however, he may still coach in the College Football Playoff. Faulkner is already hitting the recruiting trail for Georgia Tech.
Kirby Smart said "we're still in conversation," with staffer Buster Faulkner on if he'll have a role for CFP. Faulkner is leaving to become Georgia Tech offensive coordinator.

Georgia outscored Georgia Tech 27-7 in the second half. The Bulldogs settled for a few too many field goals and could have had better execution in the red zone.
Georgia’s passing attack was disappointing in the home victory. The Dawgs passed for only 138 yards against Georgia Tech. Stetson Bennett completed 10 of 18 passes for 135 yards. He threw two touchdown passes. Georgia’s offense finished with 268 rushing yards.
Georgia’s passing game needs to step up in the SEC championship game against LSU.
Defensively, Georgia recovered after allowing an early rushing touchdown to Georgia Tech. The Dawgs sacked the Yellow Jackets four times.

A key Georgia football assistant has been named as a top candidate for the Georgia Tech head coaching job.
Georgia Bulldogs running back coach Dell McGee has been named as a top candidate for the Georgia Tech head coaching vacancy. The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets fired head coach Geoff Collins.
Collins struggled to win games during his 38-game career as head coach. The Yellow Jackets went 10-28 during Collins’ tenure. Georgia Tech elected to move on from Collins after a loss to UCF on Sept. 24.
Now, Georgia Tech will begin the process of finding a new head coach. 247Sports’ Carl Reed named Jackson State head coach Deion Sanders, Coastal Carolina head coach Jamey Caldwell, FSU offensive coordinator Alex Atkins and McGee as potential candidates for the Yellow Jackets.

McGee would be a great hire for Georgia Tech. He knows the state of Georgia very well and is one of the best recruiters on Kirby Smart’s staff. Georgia certainly does not want McGee to leave. He plays a critical role for Smart and the program.
Additionally, McGee has experience as Georgia Southern’s interim coach back in 2015. McGee .
Top names of interest in the Georgia Tech Head Coaching Search are Jackson State Head Coach Deion Sanders, Georgia Running Back Coach Dell McGee, Coast Carolina Head Coach Jamey Caldwell, and Florida State OL/OC Alex Adkins.

If Georgia can beat Georgia Tech, then the Bulldogs will be a lock for the College Football Playoff. Kirby Smart and Georgia did not play Georgia Tech in 2020, when both teams played conference-only regular season schedules.
Georgia Tech is 3-7 so far this season. The Yellow Jackets have a pair of Power Five wins in 2021 against UNC and Duke, but fell to Northern Illinois to begin the season.

Georgia Tech’s last four games have all been decided by less than 12 points, but the Yellow Jackets have lost each game. Georgia Tech head coach Geoff Collins isn’t necessarily on the hot seat, but it is looking like it will be a disappointing 3-9 campaign for the Yellow Jackets.
Contrarily, Georgia is 10-0 and finished undefeated in SEC regular season play. Georgia will likely play in the College Football Playoff regardless of what happens in the SEC Championship Game.
Georgia Tech plays Notre Dame on Nov. 20 before hosting UGA. Georgia faces Charleston Southern the week before traveling to Atlanta.

The SEC has an exciting schedule filled with rivalries for the final week of the regular season:
Former UGA football HC Mark Richt posed in a Georgia Tech sweatshirt while touring the campus with the ACC Network.
Mark Richt, 60, coached at Georgia for 15 seasons before finishing his career with three years at Miami.
Now a college football analyst with the ACC Network, Richt tweeted that he plans on visiting each campus in the conference in an attempt to “get to know each program better.”
I have a master plan to visit the majority of the ACC FB teams this spring and the others in August. My goal is to get to know each program better and have a good time! Stay tuned. I will be posting parts of the trip on Instagram. I’ll let you know when something new shows up!
Richt kicked things off with a visit to Clemson, and then traveled to Atlanta for an inside look at the Georgia Tech program, one of his biggest rivals during his long coaching career.
But what Richt was wearing caused Georgia fans to do a double take just to make sure that it’s the same man who coached between the hedges for 15 seasons.
Richt was donning a Georgia Tech quarter-zip and tweeted a photo of himself with the caption: “Don’t tell anyone!”
While at Georgia, Richt compiled a 13-2 record vs Georgia Tech, with the two losses coming by a combined total of nine points.
Despite the fact that Richt is expected to drop any bias in order to do his job correctly, it’s likely that CMR still felt a hint of guilt while wearing those hideous colors.
