HEADLINE: Kirby Smart After Bulldogs’ Win Over Tennessee – “We Must Stay Hungry, Stay Humble, and Keep Pushing Forward”
The Georgia Bulldogs extended their impressive run with a hard-fought victory over SEC rival Tennessee on Saturday, and head coach Kirby Smart didn’t waste time reminding his team about the importance of staying grounded.
Speaking at the post-game press conference, Smart praised the grit and determination his players showed, especially in a matchup that tested both sides. “We executed well in key moments, but what stood out to me is how this team refused to back down,” Smart said. “We showed toughness and resilience, but this is just one step. We must stay hungry, stay humble, and keep pushing forward.”
Georgia’s defense stifled Tennessee’s offense for much of the game, while the Bulldogs’ balanced attack kept their rivals on the back foot. Despite the victory, Smart cautioned against complacency, stressing that consistency is what separates good teams from championship teams.
“Winning against a rival like Tennessee is always special,” Smart added, “but greatness doesn’t come from one win. It comes from stacking performances, staying disciplined, and improving every week. That’s our standard.”
For Bulldog Nation, the triumph over Tennessee is another reminder of Georgia’s dominance under Smart’s leadership. But for the coach, the message remains clear: the journey toward another championship is far from over, and the Bulldogs must keep their focus sharp.
