About this episode

The episode discusses the significance of the Georgia game as a benchmark for Auburn football's progress.

The Georgia game has become much more than another SEC matchup. It has become the measuring stick for where Auburn football stands as a program, and in 2026 it could tell everyone exactly how close Alex Golesh has the Tigers to competing with the SEC's elite. In this episode of Auburn Express powered by War Rapport, the conversation focuses on why Georgia represents the biggest benchmark on Auburn's schedule. Auburn could realistically enter Athens with momentum after a manageable September schedule, but the Bulldogs remain one of the nation's most complete teams. Kirby Smart has built one of college football's premier programs through elite recruiting, player development, and coaching continuity. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
