Head Coach Kirby Smart
Opening statement …
“Getting ready to go on the road for first time this season. Road SEC tests are always difficult. There is no way around it. I think any conference when you go on the road in it, it’s always a test, a test of focus, patience, endurance, composure, all the qualities you need to be a good team. So we get our first one, going to Auburn. I have a lot of respect for Hugh and the job he’s done. Everywhere he’s been, he’s really been successful. He’s very bright. He does a great job with his team, and they’re playing really, really hard right now. And got a lot of guys in, transfers in that have added to their depth, and they’re doing a really good job, playing extremely hard, and I know the environment we’ll be going into will be extremely tough.”
