Georgia’s Richt, Mississippi’s Nutt Both Need Win

OXFORD, MS – Georgia’s Mark Richt doesn’t have the best job security these days. Mississippi’s Houston Nutt knows exactly how he feels.

Ole Miss hosts Georgia on Saturday at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in a game that both teams desperately need to win in order to climb back into the SEC race. Adding more intrigue, both coaches may need a victory to stay employed much longer.

Georgia has won seven in a row in the series dating back to 1997. The Rebels have lost nine of their past 10 SEC games.

The Rebels are reeling after last week’s loss to lowly Vanderbilt that featured poor execution and an alarming lack of firepower. Georgia beat Coastal Carolina 59-0 last weekend. The Bulldogs lost both their games to nationally ranked programs – Boise State and South Carolina.
