One of the most anticipated matchups of the College Football week was undoubtedly the clash between the Georgia Bulldogs and Texas Longhorns, a game that ultimately went in Kirby Smart’s favor.
The home team lived up to its status as a title contender, leaving no doubt with its performance and sealing the night with a commanding 35–10 victory. Dominating Steve Sarkisian’s squad from the very first snap, the Bulldogs secured their ninth win of the season.
Once the game wrapped up, Coach Smart offered an interesting comparison about his team, noting certain similarities with the Navy SEALs in the way his players approach each matchup.
“Our kids believe in down and dirty,” he said, per ESPN. “They believe in the SEAL mantra of, ‘Let’s take them to the water.’ Let’s see who can survive in the water, see who’s going to tap out first, ring the bell and run from the contact contest.”
Gunner Stockton #14 of the Georgia Bulldogs celebrates a touchdown.
He also added: “We talked about what’s not for some people is for others. And the hardest part of SEAL training is when they go after the hype phase. Everybody’s hyped up, and everybody’s hyped up to kick off. But when they go to that water phase, and they go down and do the surf torture, not everybody wants it. It’s not for everybody.”
