The Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry is here, No. 4 Georgia versus No. 7 Auburn Between the Hedges. Here are the captains for today’s game.

The Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry is here, No. 4 Georgia versus No. 7 Auburn Between the Hedges at 7:30 p.m.

Georgia’s team captains for today’s game are sophomore running back Zamir White, senior linebacker Monte Rice and junior cornerback Tyson Campbell.

The Bulldogs won their season opener last week at Arkansas 37-10. The heralded defense played lights-out, racking up three interceptions, including a pick six and safety, but the offense struggled mightily.

Georgia once again hasn’t named a starting quarterback ahead of kickoff, so we will have to wait to see if junior Stetson Bennett ‘the mailman’ gets another chance after a solid performance last week, or if USC transfer J.T. Daniels gets the nod after being cleared on Monday from a knee injury suffered in 2019. We could even see redshirt freshman D’Wan Mathis get some snaps as well.

Regardless of who starts at signal caller, the Bulldogs will be facing a tough Auburn team lead by sophomore quarterback Bo Nix, who against Kentucky last week, threw for 233 yards on 16/27 passing with 3 touchdowns and led team in rushing with five carries for 34 yards.
