Alabama hasn't played at Sanford Stadium since 2015. And the Crimson Tide will try and do something no team has been able to do in nearly seven years: beat Georgia in Athens. Georgia has won 33 straight at home since losing to South Carolina in overtime in 2019. And the Tide may have a UGA Blackout to contend with. Good luck.

Chase Goodbread of the Tuscaloosa News wonders if No. 16 Alabama (2-1) can protect Ty Simpson? The Crimson Tide's offensive line struggled against the best pass rush it's seen to date (FSU) and will get an even tougher challenge against the Bulldogs. However, Georgia (3-0, 1-0) was torched by Tennessee on Sept. 13, surrendering four touchdown passes and 371 passing yards before winning in overtime 44-41.

"I'm looking forward to seeing those guys go out and compete," Bulldogs coach Kirby Smart said of his secondary. "And they've got a hell of an opportunity because they've got a really good quarterback and skill group to play against."

∎ Prediction: Georgia 35, Alabama 28

Alabama has momentum. It has the "hottest quarterback in college football," per Georgia coach Kirby Smart. It has a defense that seems to be finding its groove by getting to the quarterback and forcing turnovers. But Georgia's home game win streak is extensive. And the Crimson Tide has not played an SEC game in 2025. Expect a wake-up call for Alabama in its trip to Athens. — Colin Gay, Tuscaloosa News
