The Georgia Bulldogs are entering a new era under freshly appointed head coach Marcus Delaney, and he’s wasting no time setting the tone. Ahead of his highly anticipated first game at the helm, Delaney delivered a bold message aimed directly at Mississippi State, Georgia’s opening opponent in the 2025 SEC football season.
In a fiery press conference on Saturday afternoon, Delaney didn’t mince words. “We’re not here to rebuild. We’re here to dominate,” he said. “Mississippi State should expect a different Georgia team—more aggressive, more disciplined, and ready to make a statement from the first snap.”
Delaney, who was hired earlier this year after serving as the defensive coordinator at Michigan, inherits a team with high expectations following a transitional season. Known for his no-nonsense leadership and tactical sharpness, Delaney is focused on restoring Georgia’s reputation as a national powerhouse.
“I respect Mississippi State and what they bring to the table,” Delaney acknowledged, “but come game day, we’re going to show them what it means to play the new Georgia Bulldogs. We’re not looking for a close game—we’re aiming to control every quarter.”
The message has already sparked buzz among fans and analysts alike, with some praising Delaney’s confidence and others questioning whether he’s adding unnecessary pressure ahead of a high-stakes opener.
Kickoff between the Bulldogs of Georgia and Mississippi State is slated for September 7 at Sanford Stadium. With tensions rising and expectations sky-high, all eyes will be on Coach Delaney as he leads his team onto the field for the first time.
