Georgia targets marquee nonconference showdowns over venue, says Kirby Smart
TL;DR Summary
Georgia coach Kirby Smart says the Bulldogs care more about the matchup than the location for big nonconference games, signaling openness to neutral-site games with future opponents like Clemson and Ohio State and noting that Florida State’s home-and-home was canceled with talks of a neutral game in 2028; Clemson’s 2029–2030 series could also shift to neutral sites. The shift toward nine SEC games impacts home-game counts, with Georgia’s Florida game moved to Atlanta this year due to Jacksonville renovations, and broader neutral-site options (Orlando, Nashville, etc.) under consideration as CFP schedule-strength concerns persist.
