Inscription. In the signature victory of Kirby Smart's first season at his alma mater's helm, the Bulldogs "lit up" Sanford Stadium with 13-7 upset victory over 9th-ranked Auburn. Maurice Smith's 34-yard "Pick Six" and two Rodrigo Blankenship field goals put the Bulldogs over the top, as Georgia's dominant defense held Auburn without a second half first down.
