Georgia's win over Oklahoma in the fourth game of the 2026 season gave head coach Kirby Smart his 121st victory in 142 games. His record as Georgia coach is 121-21, a .8521 winning percentage.
At game 142, Vince Dooley's Georgia record was 95-42-5 (.6866), while Mark Richt stood at 106-36 (.7465). Smart has 26 more wins than Dooley and 15 more than Richt at the same point in his head-coaching career.
The writer also recounts attending the game with her son, their first together since he was a UGA student. Near their seats, they stopped at a marker; the writer says their late friend Podunkdawg had chosen those seats without knowing the marker was there, making the moment emotional.
