Game-by-Game Predictions for Georgia Football’s 2025 Season

The wait is almost over, Dawgs! Pads will be popping soon on the practice fields behind Butts-Mehre. After months spent dissecting every offseason practice rep, analyzing roster battles, and nervously wondering how Georgia’s new stars will emerge, it’s finally time to talk actual football. Pads will be popping soon on the practice fields behind Butts-Mehre. The Bulldogs enter 2025 with familiar expectations: another SEC title, another playoff berth, and yes, dreams of another national championship. With a loaded roster featuring seasoned playmakers and promising fresh faces alike, and with the complication of free transfers and NIL-madness, Kirby Smart’s squad looks ready to roll through one of the most demanding schedules in recent memory. Here’s how each game shapes up from a Georgia fan’s perspective, as the Dawgs set their sights firmly on returning to college football’s mountaintop.

UGA 2025 Football Schedule Predictions

Marshall (Aug. 30)
Marshall comes to Athens with ambition, but the talent disparity is stark. Gunnar Stockton and Georgia’s offensive line should dominate from the start. Expect younger players to get plenty of snaps by the second half, making for a smooth season opener.
Prediction: Georgia 48, Marshall 10

Austin Peay (Sept. 6)
No disrespect to the Governors, but this matchup has “glorified scrimmage” written all over it. Nate Frazier and Rodrick Robinson could each eclipse 100 yards rushing without breaking a sweat. UGA’s depth is too overwhelming for this one to stay close.
Prediction: Georgia 56, Austin Peay 7

at Tennessee (Sept. 13)
Early road tests are tricky, especially at Neyland. Vol fans will be loud, but Georgia’s stout defensive front, anchored by Jordan Hall and Jalon Walker, will shut down Tennessee’s run game. The Dawgs’ balanced offensive attack silences Rocky Top by the fourth quarter.
Prediction: Georgia 34, Tennessee 17

Alabama (Sept. 27)
Mark this as the circled showdown. With Alabama reloading at key positions, Georgia’s experienced leaders, such as Damon Wilson and AJ Harris, must deliver big performances. Stockton faces his toughest test yet, but home-field advantage and timely defensive stops will narrowly carry the day.
Prediction: Georgia 27, Alabama 24

Kentucky (Oct. 4)
Georgia historically struggles briefly with Kentucky’s physical style, but sheer talent usually prevails. Oscar Delp could become a matchup nightmare here, exploiting Kentucky’s linebackers and safeties. Dawgs pull away after halftime adjustments.
Prediction: Georgia 38, Kentucky 13

at Auburn (Oct. 11)
The Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry in Jordan-Hare always brings drama. Auburn’s renewed vigor under their coaching regime will keep it close early. But Georgia’s defensive depth, featuring talents like Raylen Wilson and Troy Bowles, proves decisive late in the game.
Prediction: Georgia 27, Auburn 17

Ole Miss (Oct. 18)
Lane Kiffin’s offense usually impresses, but Sanford Stadium at night is no joke. Ole Miss might strike early, but Georgia’s secondary—highlighted by the athleticism of Joenel Aguero and AJ Harris—eventually stymies the Rebels’ passing attack.
Prediction: Georgia 42, Ole Miss 24

Florida (Nov. 1, Jacksonville)
A rivalry that always demands respect. Florida’s renewed roster will challenge the Dawgs early. Look for Georgia’s ground attack, led by Rodrick Robinson’s power running, to wear down the Gator defense as the game progresses.
Prediction: Georgia 35, Florida 20

at Mississippi State (Nov. 8)
Starkville’s cowbells make road trips obnoxious, but noise alone can’t slow Georgia’s march. Strong performances from Georgia’s linebacker corps, particularly CJ Allen, should stifle the Bulldogs’ attempts to find offensive rhythm.
Prediction: Georgia 38, Mississippi State 14

Texas (Nov. 15)
A potential late-season classic awaits in Austin. Texas has talent, but hasn’t yet proven it can hang with SEC heavyweights. Stockton must demonstrate growth under pressure here, with a crucial late touchdown sealing a huge road victory.
Prediction: Georgia 31, Texas 27

Georgia Tech – Mercedes-Benz Stadium – (Nov. 29)
Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate remains lopsided in Georgia’s favor. The Yellow Jackets’ roster won’t measure up no matter where the game is played, particularly against a Georgia front seven eager to cap off a playoff-caliber season with dominance. Expect fireworks early, and younger Dawgs seeing action late.
Prediction: Georgia 27, Georgia Tech 10

Of course, I’m often wrong.
