**Kirby Smart Criticizes Georgia Fans After Auburn Victory**

Following the Georgia Bulldogs' latest win over Auburn, head coach Kirby Smart did not hold back his disappointment with the team's fan base. Smart voiced his concerns during a post-game press conference, highlighting a lack of energy and enthusiasm from the crowd throughout the 31-13 victory at Sanford Stadium.

Since clinching the national title in the 2021 season, Smart and his coaching staff have been relentless in their fight against complacency. Smart's message has consistently underscored the importance of continuous improvement, stressing that "humility is only a week away."

Despite the team's strong performance on the field, Smart noted a different kind of complacency creeping into the fan base. "To be honest, I'm a little disappointed," Smart admitted. "I thought there was really a lack of affecting the game, crowd noise-wise, with passion and energy."

The head coach acknowledged that the sweltering heat could have contributed to the subdued atmosphere but was quick to point out that the players were enduring the same conditions in full pads.

Georgia fans will have another opportunity to rally behind their team next Saturday when the Bulldogs face Mississippi State in Athens. This upcoming game marks the first meeting between the two teams since the 2022 college football season.

The Bulldogs' 2024 broadcast schedule includes several key matchups: their season opener against Clemson in Atlanta on August 31 at noon broadcast on ABC, and subsequent games including Tennessee Tech, Kentucky, Alabama, Florida, UMass, and Georgia Tech, with varying coverage across major networks.

Smart's remarks serve as both a call to action and a reminder that the energy from the stands can play a crucial role in the team’s ongoing success.
