Georgia Bulldogs Set to Kick Off 2025 Season Against Marshall
The Georgia Bulldogs are ready to begin their 2025 NCAAF regular season campaign, with the season opener scheduled against the Marshall Thundering Herd on Saturday, August 30, at 3:30 p.m. ET at Sanford Stadium, Athens, Georgia.
Junior quarterback Gunner Stockton will lead the Bulldogs on the field, having won the starting position following a competitive summer competition with Ryan Puglisi. Stockton, who has only one career start, will look to build on his potential as he steps up to the challenge.
In the preseason, Brett Thorson was the only Bulldog to earn a spot on the first-team for the Bulldogs, while Christen Miller, KJ Bolden, and Peyton Woodring made the AP All-America second team. Unfortunately, no players were included in the preseason AP All-America first-team offense or defense for the Bulldogs.
Key defensive leaders for the Bulldogs this season include inside linebacker C.J. Allen, cornerback Daylen Everette, and freshman Elijah Griffin, who is expected to make an immediate impact on the defensive front. The Bulldogs' defense has been strong so far, allowing an average of only 7 points per game as of early September 2025.
Offensively, the Bulldogs will focus on getting the "dirty yards" instead of chasing the home run, as offensive coordinator Mike Bobo emphasised. Sophomore Nate Frazier, who ran for 671 yards with eight touchdowns as a true freshman, will play a crucial role in the team's ground game.
The game will air on ESPN, and fans who don't have cable can stream it via fuboTV, Hulu + Live TV, Sling, or DirecTV, which offers a free trial for the game.
As Georgia prepares to face Marshall, the team's spirit is high. Following Stockton's impressive performance in the 2024 SEC championship game, where he took over for the injured Carson Beck in the second half, the players cheered him onto the field, demonstrating his popularity on the team.
With a strong defense and a determined offense, the Bulldogs are ready to make their mark in the 2025 season. Fans are eager to see how Stockton and the team will perform in their first game against Marshall.
