Georgia football commanded the national stage a week ago with some 12 million viewers tuning in on ABC to a dramatic 41-34 loss to Alabama.

The Bulldogs are favored by more than three touchdowns against another SEC foe from the state, rival Auburn.

For the second time as a head coach, Hugh Freeze will be on the sidelines at Sanford Stadium. His first Ole Miss team lost 37-10 to Georgia in 2012.

“We’re playing about 50 percent of our guys are young guys,” Freeze said. “They haven’t experienced what we’re getting ready to experience.”

After five straight home games, Auburn begins a three-game road stretch that follows with No. 9 Missouri and Kentucky.

The Tigers have lost three of the last four, benched quarterback Payton Thorne for a game before re-installing him last week as the starter.

“He's a really good quarterback that's a good athlete, which when you have that combination along with the skill players they have, it becomes hard to defend,” coach Kirby Smart said.

Auburn has lost 11 turnovers in its three losses.

“The results are going to come,” Freeze said. “We’re not that far off.”
