The Auburn Tigers are set for their first road game of the season, facing the No. 5 Georgia Bulldogs in Athens, Georgia, after both teams suffered losses last week. Running back Damari Alston, averaging 6.6 yards per carry, is eager to make an impact after missing last year’s game due to injury.
Alston emphasizes the need for heightened focus, especially for the young players experiencing their first road game. He understands the challenges of playing in a hostile environment and believes the team can upset Georgia.
This matchup is personal for Alston, a Georgia native, as he faces friends like Georgia players Jalon Walker and K.J. Bolden. He feels that Auburn’s recent performance against Oklahoma, one of the best defenses, has prepared them well for this challenge.
Kickoff is at 2:30 p.m. CT at Sanford Stadium, airing on ABC and ESPN+.
