After Georgia trounced TCU in the national championship game, a speech supposedly delivered by Bulldogs coach Kirby Smart began to make the rounds on social media. The expletive-heavy lecture was quite the apparent precursor to Georgia’s 65–7 rout of the Horned Frogs, but as it turns out the speech didn’t take place, at least not before the title game.
Smart revealed this week that he had heard about the leaked audio, but that he was certain that his pregame talk had come from a game earlier in the year.
“That was leaked from a previous game,” Smart said on The Steam Room podcast with NBA on TNT’s Ernie Johnson and Charles Barkley.
