Kirby Smart remembers his last game at Sanford Stadium on Nov. 28, 1998, against Georgia Tech.
Now, 20 years later, the Georgia head coach gets to lead a group of seniors Saturday (noon, SEC Network) that he led for three seasons. Same stadium, same team and Smart hopes for a different result than his own when Georgia Tech pulled off a 21-19 victory.
“We want to honor them by playing our best game at home,” Smart said.
Before kickoff, Georgia will honor 15 scholarship seniors who had completed their first season as a Bulldog only days before Smart took the job.
