Georgia launches intense hype video on eve of SEC title rematch with Texas
Georgia put out a chilling 2-minute hype video on Friday night to get its already passionate fans even more fired up for Saturday night’s SEC showdown against Texas.
No. 5 Georgia and No. 10 Texas aren’t just both right in the middle of the College Football Playoff discussion in 2025, they share football history from just last year, when the Bulldogs and Longhorns met in the SEC Championship Game. Georgia won that showdown in overtime, and both teams went on to the Playoff.
On Saturday night, both teams want to get further down a path to a return trip to Atlanta, but somebody is going to have to lose a very important mid-November matchup that kicks off at 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC. Texas has no wiggle room when it comes to making the Playoff, with 2 losses already, but Georgia might since it’s 8-1.
But don’t tell that to any Georgia player, Georgia fan or former Georgia player, like former Bulldog defensive back Kamari Lassiter, who narrated Friday night’s hype video that contained the headline “Elite Heat”. Lassiter knows what it takes to get to the finish line of college football, playing on those back-to-back national championship teams in 2021 and 2022.
This Georgia team is going to try to do what Lassiter’s teams did, and on Saturday night the Dawgs will have to deal with a desperate, surging Texas team that’s won 4 in a row and is coming off a bye. Georgia knows it’s got its hands full on Saturday night, and Lassiter got Bulldog fans pumped for the challenge with this hype video that just might keep them up all Friday night:
