Updated 2025 Georgia football schedule after five kickoff, TV time announcements
Updated 2025 Georgia football schedule after five kickoff, TV time announcements The Georgia Bulldogs' 2025 college football season schedule is shaping up. The Bulldogs recently learned the kickoff times and television channel for five different games. All five of Georgia's scheduled games, which includes the first three weeks of the season, kickoff at 3:30 p.m. ET. Georgia also officially learned that it will be playing Georgia Tech on Black Friday again. However, this time the game will be at 3:30 p.m. ET and will be in the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Georgia does not have to play a Power Four opponent until Week 3 at Tennessee. The Bulldogs have an easier schedule in 2025 than they did in 2024, but Georgia still plays all of the same SEC opponents as they did last season (just in the opposite home versus road venue).

Butler adds exhibition with former Dawgs player, coach Matthew Graves and Indiana State
The Butler basketball team is adding its second exhibition game for the 2025-26 season, welcoming current Indiana State coach and former Butler player and coach Matthew Graves back to Hinkle Fieldhouse. Butler will play the Sycamores Oct. 29; it's the second of two exhibition games scheduled for the upcoming season. Butler's first exhibition game is Oct. 17 against Notre Dame, the first of a two-year agreement. Butler coach Thad Matta and Graves are two of the four Bulldog alums currently leading NCAA Division I programs (joining Baylor's Scott Drew and Miami Ohio's Travis Steele). Graves led the Bulldogs to NCAA Tournament appearances in each of his last two seasons (1997 and 1998). His coaching career at Butler began in 2001 under Todd Lickliter, and he later served on the staff of Brad Stevens. He finished his Butler playing career with 994 points. The Dawgs open the first week of the regular season against Southern Indiana on Nov. 5 and IU Indy on Nov. 8 at Hinkle Fieldhouse. Butler will play in the Greenbrier Tip-Off in November and will return to Gainbridge Fieldhouse for the 2025 Indy Classic on Dec. 20 against Northwestern. The Bulldogs will host Chicago State on Nov. 11 at Hinkle Fieldhouse and will conclude their home-and-home series at SMU on Nov. 15. Eastern Michigan will make the trip to Hinkle on Dec. 2.

Blues reveal 'secret weapon' after Origin 1 success
Battered NSW centre Stephen Crichton has been in the wars but credits his teammates and the medical staff for his star defensive performance in Origin I. The Bulldogs captain twisted his elbow in a tackle on Wednesday night after overcoming a quad complaint in the build-up. The star centre made 16 tackles and had one try assist in an 80-minute performance that looked unlikely when he hobbled from the training field on Monday. Crichton says it wouldn't have been possible for him to play his starring role without the work done by Blues trainers and the confidence shown by his teammates that his body was ready for the demands of Origin. "On game day it was just a box tick, I was ready to go," Crichton said on Thursday. "The boys just getting around me as well and giving me that confidence too. "We've got elite physios that got me ready 48 hours before the game and they gave confidence to me to go out and do my job." Another Blues star under a pre-game injury cloud was player of the match Payne Haas, who dominated the middle of the Queensland defence despite carrying a quad strain. Crichton was full of praise for the Brisbane forward and said his power running contributions were vital to the continued success of the Blues. "He's been the best front rower throughout the year and I'm so happy he's representing NSW and he's a part of our team," Crichton said. "It's always nice running off the back of his carries, he's always scattering in as well so it's good to have him in the team." Crichton was quick to laugh off speculation he had done significant damage to his elbow and said a lighter club load would have him fit and firing for game two. "I think I just twisted it (his elbow) in one of the tackles but it's good now," Crichton said. "Obviously going into a bye now so got a long turnaround to look after it." Crichton's former Panthers teammate Brian To'o said the Blues were pleased with the game one win, but not resting on their laurels before a trip to Perth, where NSW have dominated their two previous games. "It's obviously pretty exciting, a wonderful opportunity as well," To'o told AAP. "It was obviously a really scrappy game yesterday but really happy with the win and still things to improve."

Georgia football fans react after adding 4-star WR commit Ryan Mosley
Georgia football fans react after adding 4-star WR commit Ryan Mosley Go Dawgs !! — Coach Kirby Smart (@KirbySmartUGA) May 28, 2025 Georgia Bulldogs fans are excited after the Dawgs added their 10th commitment in the class of 2026. Georgia's latest commitment, four-star wide receiver Ryan Mosley, is another outstanding addition for the Bulldogs. Mosley brings an excellent combination of size and explosiveness to Georgia's 2026 recruiting class. The 6-foot-4, 205-pound receiver plays high school football for Carrollton High School in Carrollton, Georgia. Mosley is the No. 182 recruit in the nation, per the 247Sports Composite. Mosley plays at the highest level (7A) of Georgia high school football and is a versatile athlete. He also plays free safety for Carrollton and some recruiting sites consider him to be an athlete and not necessarily a wide receiver. The Carrollton standout has a large catch radius, but is still shifty enough to produce yardage after the catch. Mosley has good speed and has valuable experience playing with an elite high school quarterback in Julian Lewis (a four-star recruit that signed with Colorado). Mosley is someone who can still threaten the defense vertically, but is not going to blow past most Power Four defensive backs. Mosley's commitment is a big win for Georgia wide receivers coach James Coley. How did Georgia football social media react after Mosley's decision? Kirby Smart's classic reaction never gets old UGA recruiting staff member David Cooper Another one of my Young Kings 👑 joined the crew‼️ Told y'all it's about to be a 'Elite wanna play with Elite' type of summer 🤷🏾♂️ #GoDawgs 🐶 — David Cooper (@1CoachCoop) May 28, 2025 Mosley's commitment BREAKING: Four-Star ATH Ryan Mosley has Committed to Georgia, he tells me for @on3recruits The 6'3 200 ATH from Carrollton, GA chose the Bulldogs over Alabama & South Carolina 'Hometown hero always gotta stay home Go Dawgs🐶' — Hayes Fawcett (@Hayesfawcett3) May 28, 2025 Big addition for UGA!

An ancestry test would show Maynard is 100 per cent Magpie. Who embodies the spirit of your club?
Having your DNA tested to give you accurate data about where you come from is pretty common these days and I joined the trend by exploring my ancestry recently. Eighty-three per cent Irish felt like unders, to be honest. On my first trip to Ireland in 2002, a group of schoolboys from the local area started launching rocks at our team bus, and I was struck. Not by the rocks, but by the resemblance. Each one of these mousey brown-haired, freckly, red-nosed kids could have been me. We were connected. Curiously, when I received my DNA data in the post a few weeks back, there was no mention of Footscray or the Bulldogs, but they're in my blood, too. A few years ago, whilst chatting footy with a mate of mine, he commented that Brayden Maynard was a 'proper, old school Magpie'. I pushed him to elaborate and got the sense he had thought about it quite a bit. 'Maynard is a direct link to the old tribe from Victoria Park, I reckon. He's tough, industrious, likes a good time off the field, plays for the jumper on a Saturday and probably skips the cryptic crossword on a Sunday,' he said. It was all in jest, but it stayed with me. Now, when I watch Collingwood, I do find myself watching No.4 more closely. Maynard, one could argue, is the offspring of a spliced gene pool of Tony Shaw and Darren Millane, both heroes of the 1990 flag. Versatile, robust ... and loyal? We'll see. It begs the question, does your club have that one player who epitomises the spirit, lineage and physicality of your club's history? I kicked it around for a few days and found that some clubs were easy to allocate that symbolic individual, while others were more difficult. It raised a couple of questions for me. What does it say about a club that doesn't have a player who captures the ancestral links of their history? Does it matter? The Bulldogs have 'Libba', the Giants have Toby Greene. Carlton were tougher, but Jacob Weitering's quiet demeanour and classy output reminds me somewhat of Bruce Doull's presence amidst all the egos and drama. He's ike a giant boulder in the middle of the Howqua River, still and smooth, waters surging past and all around him. But at other clubs, such as Essendon, St Kilda and the Swans, I couldn't find one. Again, is that a problem? Is it the problem?
