Georgia Bulldogs head coach Kirby Smart will have an opportunity to end a pair of lengthy losing streaks during the 2026 college football season. Smart has yet to defeat the Alabama Crimson Tide or Ole Miss Rebels on the road, with Georgia's last wins in those venues coming in 2007 and 2011 respectively. The Bulldogs will travel to Tuscaloosa and Oxford in 2026 as they look to finally break through against these two SEC rivals.
Why it matters
Ending these road losing streaks would be a significant milestone for Kirby Smart and the Georgia program. Smart has built the Bulldogs into a national powerhouse, but these two road venues have remained elusive. Defeating Alabama and Ole Miss on the road would further cement Smart's legacy and show Georgia can win anywhere in the SEC.
The details
Georgia faced both Alabama and Ole Miss twice during the 2025 season, splitting the series 1-1 with each. The Bulldogs decimated the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship, but then lost to Ole Miss in the Sugar Bowl. Both opponents have undergone changes this offseason, which could play to Georgia's advantage as they look to end their decade-long road losing streaks.
- Georgia will travel to Tuscaloosa to face Alabama on Saturday, October 10, 2026.
- Georgia will travel to Oxford to face Ole Miss on Saturday, November 7, 2026.
