Georgia DB seen appearing to celebrate with Ole Miss fans after Week 11 loss
You don’t see this one every day.
Georgia football fell to Ole Miss on Saturday in a game that was mostly one-sided. The Rebels controlled the line of scrimmage and made life hell for Carson Beck from the jump, culminating in a 28-10 win for Lane Kiffin and Co.
But that’s not the story here. Following that loss – Georgia’s first to a non-Alabama team since 2020 – defensive back Jake Pope was caught on film appearing to celebrate with Ole Miss fans.
Now, we don’t know Pope’s relation to these fans and have yet to hear his side of things, but this is still fairly concerning behavior for a D1 college football player after such a massive loss. Check it out below:

It should be noted that Pope has not seen any action for Georgia since transferring from Alabama at the end of last season.
If this makes any Georgia fan mad, we wouldn’t blame you. The Bulldogs have now lost twice on the season and are in real danger of missing out on the College Football Playoff. Their upcoming battle against Tennessee could very well be an elimination game with how the rest of the SEC is shaking out.
The Bulldogs host the Volunteers next Saturday at 7:30 p.m. on ABC.
I don’t care if you just reunited with your long lost Grand Pappy, your team just got their ass handed to them in a critical game. IF that is friends or family, you give hugs and take a somber attitude. What you don’t do is jump up and down like you’re listening to a Kris Kross song with smiles on your face, high fiving Ole Miss fans. Buddy, if I’m your teammate, you have a lot of explaining to do in the locker room.
Could he be a planted spy that has been sending intel to other teams? I mean this is the only plausible thing to make sense of Georgia losing twice in a year, and getting absolutely manhandled Saturday, right Georgia fans?
Well at least he didn’t run over anyone leaving the field. He didn’t punch anyone.
