The No. 6 Georgia Bulldogs (9-2) play the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (7-4) at 7:30 p.m. ET on Friday, Nov. 29 in Athens, Georgia. The Georgia-Georgia Tech game will be televised on ABC.

Georgia is coming off a 59-21 victory over UMass on Saturday. Last week, Georgia Tech beat NC State 30-29 in a narrow home win on Thursday. Georgia Tech has a rest advantage, but it is unclear if that will materialize.

Georgia Tech is looking to play the spoiler role in Clean-Old Fashioned Hate. The Yellow Jackets already have a top 10 upset this season and are very motivated to beat Georgia.

The television commentators for the Georgia-Georgia Tech game are Joe Tessitore (play-by-play), Jessee Palmer (analyst) and Katie George (sideline).

“This is a huge matchup,” said Georgia coach Kirby Smart. “This is an inner-state rivalry game that’s been part of history for a long, long time. And it is a physical game. It was a very physical game last year. It’ll be a physical game this year. I’m excited to be at home on a Friday night and looking forward to our crowd impacting this game.”

Georgia holds a 71-39-5 series edge over Georgia Tech. The Bulldogs have won six straight games against Georgia Tech. Kirby Smart is 6-1 in his coaching career against the Yellow Jackets.
