In a game that Georgia could have fallen into the trap, the Bulldogs prevailed in emphatic fashion.
The Georgia Bulldogs were long overdue for a game like this against an SEC foe. Despite giving up a touchdown on the first drive of the game, Georgia thoroughly dominated the Mississippi State Bulldogs from start to finish. While Jeff Lebby's team found the end zone three times on the day, Kirby Smart's offense could do no wrong. Georgia prevailed over Mississippi State by winning, 41-21.
