Georgia’s next step after its 42-7 demolition of Ole Miss is a home date with Missouri, and the Bulldogs still have plenty to sort through over these final three regular-season games.
The matchup is set for Saturday, Nov. 14 at 3:30 pm EST in Sanford Stadium. It will air on ABC and also be available on the ESPN app and Fubo TV.
The SEC held off on locking in the kickoff time until after Saturday’s games, with Georgia-Missouri and Texas at LSU both sitting in the 3:30 or 7:30 pm window last week. That left the league to decide which game would get the night slot, and Georgia ended up with another afternoon kickoff instead of its first home night game of the season.
That part stands out even more because Georgia still hasn’t played a home night game this year. LSU, meanwhile, is set to host Texas in its fifth home night game of the season next week.
Since 2024, LSU has had more home night games than anyone in the SEC, while Georgia has had only four home night games total and zero so far this season. With Georgia’s only other home game this year coming against a 2-7 Georgia Tech team, it looks like the Bulldogs may go the whole season without one.
Missouri comes in after losing to Texas this weekend, though the Tigers will more than likely still be ranked next week. They’ve spent the season hanging around the rankings, only to slip back down whenever they start climbing higher. Georgia also has another data point to lean on: Ole Miss beat Missouri 31-3 earlier this season.
Vegas sees Georgia as a 13.5-point favorite, according to DraftKings Sportsbook, with the over-under sitting at 47.5 points.
That number feels modest after what Georgia just did in Oxford, where the Bulldogs won by 35. Still, the only thing that matters is getting the win, and this is another chance for Georgia to keep building its case as one of the best teams in the country.

Georgia Defense Turned Ole Miss One-Dimensional From The Opening Series
From the opening series, Georgias defense made Ole Miss look like a team trying to solve a problem with one hand tied behind its back. The Bulldogs were disruptive from the start, piling up pressure on Trinidad Chambliss, forcing him off his spot and repeatedly knocking the Rebels behind the chains with sacks and tackles for loss on the way to a 42-7 win.
Kewan Lacys absence only sharpened the imbalance, leaving Ole Miss without its injured tailback and putting even more on Chambliss to carry the offense. Georgia never gave him much room to settle in, and the Rebels spent most of the afternoon chasing the game rather than threatening to change it. [Read more 🡒]

For Georgia, the timing also fits into a season that has featured a limited number of home night games, something Kirby Smart has already addressed. The atmosphere at Sanford Stadium should still be plenty lively in the late afternoon, but now the focus shifts from wondering when the Tigers would come to town to what this meeting could mean in the SEC race.
