The No. 1 team in the AFCA Coaches Poll looked like it on Saturday as Georgia rolled over then-No. 10 Mississippi, 52-17. With the score tied 14-all in the second quarter, the Bulldogs scored 31-unanswered points to take control of the game. Georgia will travel to No. 19 Tennessee on November 18 for their final conference game of 2023.

The loss only dropped Ole Miss to No. 14 as they look to rebound against ULM this coming weekend.
