How Missouri football trolled Georgia without winning a game against UGA in a decade
How Missouri football trolled Georgia without winning a game against UGA in a decade
The Missouri Tigers and Georgia Bulldogs won't be playing each other during the 2025 college football season unless the two teams meet in the SEC championship or College Football Playoff. That did not stop Missouri from trolling Georgia in a recent social media post.
In a series of pictures, Missouri tabbed "the photo we recently hesitate to post" versus "the photo we posted in 2013 with absolutely zero hesitation." The Tigers included one picture of Missouri's 41-26 defeat of Georgia.
Missouri's 2013 win over Georgia helped the Tigers climb the SEC East standings and advance to the SEC championship where Missouri lost to Auburn. Missouri's upset of No. 7 Georgia and star quarterback Aaron Murray derailed Georgia's season. The Missouri game was Georgia's second loss of the year and essentially crushed UGA's national championship hopes.
Of course, the next week Georgia lost at Vanderbilt, which cemented the Dawgs' disappointing season after losing in the 2012 SEC championship and coming five yards short of a national championship appearance the year before.
Georgia fans can cheer up though. The Bulldogs have won 10 straight games against Missouri. In 2016, Georgia hired coach Kirby Smart and began to dominate the SEC East. The Bulldogs won national titles in 2021 and 2022 to erase a lot of the heartbreak for Georgia's fan base.
Missouri's post trolling Georgia
Note: the image is all the way to the right on the post.
Missouri has not beaten Georgia since 2013. Georgia has dominated the series, but Missouri has made strides in recent seasons. Georgia is 11-1 since Missouri joined the SEC, but the teams no longer face each other annually as SEC East rivals in the expanded 16-team SEC.

Pedro Pagés hits a 2-run HR, Sonny Gray pitches into 7th inning as Cardinals beat Dodgers 5-0
ST. LOUIS — Pedro Pagés hit a two-run homer, Sonny Gray pitched into the seventh inning and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-0 Friday night in a game that started after a 1 hour, 17 minute rain delay. Willson Contreras hit his sixth homer of the season in the eighth inning off Chris Stratton, who was re-signed by Los Angeles before the game, and Nolan Arenado had three hits to help St. Louis improve to a National League-best 21-9 since May 4. Gray (7-1) allowed eight hits and struck out five without walking a batter in 6 1/3 innings to earn his second win against the Dodgers in eight career starts against them. JoJo Romero, Phil Maton and Steven Matz combined to pitch 2 2/3 innings in relief to secure the Cardinals' eighth shutout of the season. Pagés lined the first pitch he saw from Justin Wrobleski (1-2) over the left-center field bullpen in the second inning for his fifth home run of the season to put St. Louis ahead 2-0. Brendan Donovan blooped a two-out, two-run single to center field in the fifth inning to push the Cardinals' lead to 4-0. Wrobleski allowed four runs on six hits and three walks in a career-best six innings after being recalled from triple-A Oklahoma City prior to the game. Shohei Ohtani and Mookie Betts each singled to lead off the third inning. However, Gray struck out Freddie Freeman and Teoscar Hernández, and Max Muncy flew out to right field to end the Dodgers' threat. Gray has tossed 14 consecutive scoreless innings dating back to the sixth inning of his start on May 25 against Arizona. Gray has not allowed a run in four of his last six starts. Dodgers RHP Yoshinobu Yamamoto (6-4, 2.39 ERA) is scheduled to face Cardinals RHP Erick Fedde (3-5, 3.82) on Saturday. ___ AP MLB:

Kentucky Basketball Beats Cap Proposal With NIL Power Play
Kentucky Basketball Beats Cap Proposal With NIL Power Play originally appeared on Athlon Sports. When it comes to men's college basketball, few schools wield influence like Kentucky, and this week, they proved it again. As the NCAA's House settlement edges closer to implementation, Kentucky stepped into the spotlight, fiercely opposing a proposed NIL cap that could've limited its competitive edge. Advertisement The crux of the debate centered around the $20.5 million NIL spending cap schools would soon face across all athletic programs. But behind closed SEC doors, a separate proposal was on the table, one that would restrict how much of that total could be allocated to each sport. That's where Kentucky drew the line. According to Yahoo Sports' Ross Dellenger, Kentucky 'was a pretty big voice in the room' advocating to kill that per-sport cap. The message was clear: the Wildcats didn't want limitations hampering their marquee basketball program, long a cornerstone of both the school's identity and national recruiting dominance. The result? The SEC dropped the proposed per-sport NIL limit, for now. At least for the 2025-26 calendar year, powerhouse programs like Kentucky will have free rein to allocate their NIL funds however they see fit within the $20.5 million cap. This means Coach Mark Pope and his staff can remain aggressive in pursuing top-tier talent without worrying about hitting a sport-specific ceiling.

As of early June, UK has yet to release a breakdown of how it plans to distribute NIL dollars across all sports. That silence has sparked speculation about how much support non-revenue programs will receive in this new era. Advertisement Still, for fans of Kentucky basketball, this is a major victory. In a landscape where elite talent now chooses programs based as much on NIL potential as championship pedigree, Kentucky just kept itself near the top of the food chain. Kentucky's bold NIL stance didn't just influence policy, it preserved its basketball identity in the most financially competitive era college sports has ever seen.
