Georgia Football: Head Coach Kirby Smart Pre-SEC Championship Game vs Alabama Press Conference

University of Georgia head football coach Kirby Smart previewed the upcoming SEC Championship game against Alabama with media on Monday.

[@jakejones9561]

Man as a Bama fan I miss having Kirby on the sidelines with Nick. He’s such a great coach

[@SaberOW]

Bama fan here, hoping for a close game with no injuries and well officiated. Good luck to all you Dawg fans. Big fan of Kirby and what he's done there after leaving the Tide.

[@1solidkoy919]

Kirby last name is Smart for a reason he knows Alabama he’s definitely gonna have us ready to play Go Dawgs ‼️‼️

This will be a great game GO DAMN DAWGS Respect to Alabama because they deserve it

[@SportsLiveInTheAtl]

As Good As Alabama is And trust me This game should be tight. Georgia is better and should win if they dont make mental mistakes. I'm nervous But confident also. Lets Go Dawgs

[@marvinking460]

Very nervous but confident enough. GODAWGS

[@clintjohnson4947]

You could also say the same thing about bama.

[@stepheninglett3447]

Ga dawgs, coach, thank you. If we are unable to win the rest... we have nothing to be ashamed of. Yall have been so Awesome. Thx again coach.

Brooks Austin always asks great questions.

[@codystone685]

lol. I knew that voice immediately

[@airassault11]

@@codystone685 Besides for Kirby, Brooks the only smart one in there. 😆

[@shinjiro212]

Kirby makes the same hand gestures that Saban does in his press conferences. Pretty neat, beating Saban is by far the biggest challenge for any team. Winning the SEC will be tougher than winning the actual national championship simply because of Nick Saban. Even if this year's Alabama team isn't regarded as highly as some of the ones they've had from 2015-2020, they are still Alabama and are one of the top 2 or 3 most talented in the country.

Can’t wait to see this game go down. Good luck to Alabama and Go Dawgs!

[@calebfromcolumbus3831]

He’s week to week… thanks guys

[@RR-1977]

Whoever that guy is is the same one that tried to put Delp on the spot for dropping a pass. Just some AJC (probably) keyboard warrior.

​@@RR-1977I believe that reporter was Ryan from DawgPost. Who's a younger guy but has alot of potential , probably my personal favorite out of the dawgpost trio... as I'm typing this I finished the last question about Pops injury and I see now what yall are referencing. Likely a AJC reporter asking the same questions over and over.

Sounded like Mike Griffith to me. He’s had issues in the past with upsetting Kirby in press conferences.

Yooo first question is by the film guy. I know that voice anywhere.

[@LudingtonBass]

Love ya Kirbs. Go Dawgs !!!!!

[@fletchdiggitydawg]

If I were Brooks Austin I would be hearing other media ask questions and be pulling my hair out. I mean most of these questions are just ridiculous and have obvious answers… like “how hard is it to win an SEC championship”….. wtf do you think?!?!?! It’s hard AF. This is the only conference where the championship game is always against 2 teams who are capable of winning a title. No other conference is like that. Brooks is the very very few that asks good football questions

[@jsong8282]

I am once again asking for your support in how I can get on Kirby’s sweater game

[@collinmonohan3556]

If Georgia can contain Milroe as a runner, they’ll be fine. If it gets to a shootout between him and Beck, Georgia wins easily

[@nonya7231]

They said the same thing when we played lsu lmao and we won that shootout so yeah go head.

[@gregbloodworth6000]

​@@nonya7231LSU doesn't have a defense.

[@scottturner1504]

😂😂😂 what milroe is an excellent passer ,you must know nothing of him

Has anyone ever heard Kirby say..no that teams sucks and we are going to kick their asses?

[@GarrisonSowles]

No coach does that

I have dissociated from Cox because of Judd and Towers. Sorry AJC Dawgnation, no impressions from me or cable or news subscription.

Why did he say "We" talking about Bama getting in without playing for the SEC? He was at UGA already in his second year. And i don't think they've done it any other time? 🤔😬

If Alabama and Georgia both play to the best of their abilities, Georgia will win by 10. If Georgia gives up an opening drive touchdown and turns the ball over several times, Bama will walk away with it.

Finally after all the trash talk UGA fans have been spewing about Alabamas win over Auburn we have found someone from UGA that understands. Much respect for Kirby this is why Alabama fans still love him. A great coach with class at a great program. His daddy taught him well. May the best team win and roll tide

[@TheMCJ2011]

“His daddy taught him well”… And you delusional gumps have the nerve to talk about UGA fans talking trash? The jokes write themselves 💀

You of course mean Mr. Smart. I know you aren't referring to a West Virginian midget who is shorter than Jenny Dell.

[@LivelyChap]

Rivalry games are a different thing usually. That game doesn’t diminish Alabama in the least. The entire weekend was full of near upsets and upsets. It was crazy. Good luck to Alabama and Go Dawgs!

Man this is one of those where I won’t be really shocked by any result. Either team could catch a break at the right time and blow the other out. It could be 2 mules fighting over a turnip for 58 minutes. Two powerhouse teams going to battle with each other.

A real fan wouldn’t bet against his team so basically you’re a fake Bama fan

Mannn turn yo damn gear in and go get you a dawgs cheerleading uniform smdh 👎🏾 let’s just be honest this is the national championship game I feel whoever wins this game has the best shot to win it all and that’s if Alabama is not screwed with the CFP if fsu get at 4 and UGA wins this will be TCU 2.0🤣

Ready for him 2 years ago. He made a couple of tackles. Didn't mean much then nor will it Saturday.

Bama got the best defense in the country and the best defense Georgia seen all year if If bama get a pass rush we known for knocking QBs out the game early bama by 14 Roll Tide roll … 🐘🐘‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

[@wesleygary6651]

That's just dumb. Unless you consider the 17th ranked overall defense the best in the country. Let me guess--black guy, democrat, can't add, speak, read, write, reason or take the blame for anything he says or does. How am i doing so far? By the way--what does If if mean? Can't punctuate either?

[@taylordawg0388]

“It’s ok to NOT play well?” Huh?

He said "if you just get whipped." As in, not a mistake, not a bust. Tech did that alot, had us completely covered up with 3 blockers on 2 defenders.

Such a moronic statement. Do you know how mentoring works? Someone also mentored Saban. Alabama did nothing for Georgia football. Saban helped Kirby become a head coach. Just like someone else helped Saban. That’s life. Go live it.

​@Iceify_, and where did Kirby play defense in college?
