No. 2: Georgia Bulldogs, 2030 and 2031 seasons

This series between these two elite programs is still a long way off from happening. And a lot can change in 10 years. But as things stand today, this home and home series between Ohio State and Georgia should be an exciting one.

Kirby Smart left his post as Alabama’s defensive coordinator to become the Bulldogs head coach in 2016 and all he has done since then is win. He put a fence around the rich recruiting base of Georgia and that has helped lead him to three straight SEC eastern division championships.

These two schools have a bit of recent history as former Bulldog quarterback Justin Fields chose to leave Georgia in favor of Ohio State. Picking Jake Fromm over Justin Fields may go down as Kirby Smart’s biggest regret during his tenure as Georgia’s head coach.

These two programs may look totally different by the time they play these games in a decade but it sure looks like a series that will be a fun one. A lot can change before these two programs face off for the first time, but both are premier programs.

The final series on this list highlights two big-name programs that have two big-name coaches right now. If both are still the head coach by the time this series happens, it will be the biggest series in college football in the last 15 years.
