Georgia football-Mississippi State live updates, practice notes for Week 11

11:45 a.m. update: Kirby Smart, Ladd McConkey and Kelee Ringo will all meet with reporters on Monday.

  • “Different defensively, their defensive coordinator does an incredible job. People would think they’re similar to Tennessee but they’re not. Very few of our calls and schemes carry over. Their environment will be electric at night.” -- Smart on Mississippi State
  • “A lot more experienced quarterback. He got a lot of confidence in that game. He doesn’t make a lot of mistakes. He uses coach Leach’s offense to his advantage. They’re usually one step ahead of your answers one step at a time.”
  • “It’s wasted energy. You just focus on Mississippi State. What do we have to do to play well against them. They see it but they don’t get discussed around here.”
  • “You’d be mistaken if you think they’re just throwing. They really gashed some people in the run game this year. People have the wrong demeanor when they face this team. They got good backs.” -- Smart
  • Smart mentions that Saturday was the first time all season Jalen Carter was over 90 percent healthy. “It’s a luxury to have him back and playing well. He played really well the other day and we need him to continue to do that.”
  • Smart adds he’s hoping running back Kendall Milton gets back closer to 100 percent this week. Milton returned to action after missing the last two games.
  • “Did we take the air out of it? Yes. Do I question that? No. You got to be smart when you see two exchanges where they fumble. You see two things happen back-to-back it changes the way you think about it.” -- Smart on the way the second half played out.
  • “Ball security. It’s important.” -- Smart when asked about the fumbles. Georgia lost two fumbles on Saturday.
  • They were better prepared because they were one notch up. Jalon Walker played some, he played in between some. Marvin got to play. The key is keeping those guys healthy.” -- Smart on the young edge rushers.
  • Smart mentioned Warren Brinson is battling the flu. “Had two or three guys we were worried about.”
  • “I feel like we prepare so well it makes practice easier than the games.” -- Kelee Ringo on tougher practice
  • Ringo mentions he’s played in high school against teams that have used cowbells before. Said he didn’t notice it make much of a difference.

Georgia is riding high after its impressive win over the previously unbeaten Tennessee Volunteers. But the Bulldogs can’t afford to take their eye off the ball, especially with so much to play for and a tough Mississippi State team on the schedule this week.

Should Georgia win this weekend, it would clinch the SEC East and punch its ticket to Atlanta. But the Bulldogs will have to go into hostile grounds and take on a Mississippi State team that is 6-3 this season.

Even after the big win over the Volunteers, Smart knew his team was going to have its hands full with Mike Leach’s Air Raid offense.

“They understand that humility is a week away,” Smart said. “They’ve got to go to Starkville the next week, which is a tough game.”

Mississippi State does have the SEC’s leading passer in Will Rogers, who has thrown for 2,912 yards and 26 touchdowns. Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett is actually second in the SEC in passing.

The cowbells of Mississippi State will create a unique environment, adding extra noise to what should be a fired-up Mississippi State crowd. Georgia struggled early in the season in a road night game, needing two fourth-quarter touchdowns to beat Missouri 26-22.

Mississippi State has lost games to LSU, Kentucky and Alabama this season. Smart is 1-0 against Leach as a head coach, with the win coming back in 2020 when Georgia beat Mississippi State 31-24 in Sanford Stadium.
