ESPN commentators set for Georgia versus Auburn

The Georgia Bulldogs will have their home-opener against the highly ranked Auburn Tigers this Saturday at 7:30 p.m. Kirby Smart and the University of Georgia are hosting a 1-0 Auburn team, who just defeated Kentucky 29-13 last week.

The Bulldogs come into their first game in Athens as a team looking for an offensive identity. Georgia was quite impressive on the defensive side of the football in their 37-10 victory over the Arkansas Razorbacks in week one.

The ESPN commentators for the prime time game are set. Chris Fowler will do the play by play and former Ohio State quarterback Kirk Herbstreit will be an analyst alongside Fowler. Alison Williams will handle of the sideline reporting in a reduced capacity Stanford Stadium environment.

Prior to the contest, ESPN’s College Football GameDay will be hosted live from Athens, Georgia. The Georgia versus Auburn game is the only top ten match-up this week and is the first of the season. The game is crucial for both teams. The loser will face an uphill battle in the SEC.

The SEC has another quality match-up this week in the Alabama versus Texas A&M game.
