Georgia DB Dan Jackson shares expectations for rivalry clash at Auburn
Georgia and Auburn will face off this Saturday for the 128th time in history. The game, known as the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry, is always a hotly-contested battle.
In the all-time series, the Bulldogs have 63 wins compared to the Tigers’ 56, with 8 ties. While the all-time series is neck-and-neck, it has been all Georgia of late. The Bulldogs have won 6 straight matchups against the Tigers.
Georgia DB Dan Jackson was recently asked about the Auburn rivalry.
It’s always a battle every time we go to Auburn no matter what,” explained Jackson. “Their fan base is a lot like ours. They’re going to bring it every Saturday.”

Jackson, a redshirt senior, has 10 tackles, 1 INT, and 1 forced fumble on the season. Jackson has not lost to Auburn in his college career.
The Bulldogs are on a 6-game winning streak in the rivalry, with the last 3 games in being blowouts in UGA’s favor. It will be interesting to see if the Tigers can keep this one close, especially after losing to Texas A&M last week.
