Georgia assistant coach Will Muschamp and ESPN commentator Kirk Herbstreit exchanged what’s sure to be the funniest “controversy” of the week. During the media buildup to Georgia’s upcoming College Football Playoff tilt with Ohio State, Muschamp recalled his playing days with the Bulldogs and one particular game against the Buckeyes.
In the only meeting ever between the schools, Muschamp was a safety for Georgia, and Herbstreit was Ohio State’s quarterback. They squared off in the Florida Citrus Bowl.
The Bulldogs won that game on Jan. 1, 1993, with Saturday’s matchup coming just about 30 years to the day.
Muschamp threw a little harmless shade Herbstreit’s way looking back on how he knew that game would go the Bulldogs’ way.
Georgia won its only meeting vs. Ohio State back in the 1993 Citrus Bowl.
Former UGA defender Will Muschamp shares what he remembers leading up to the win:
“We had a pregame luncheon & (Kirk) Herbstreit got up and threw a pass across the room — I knew we had a shot to win.”
Rather than just laugh off Muschamp’s Bulldog-friendly snark, Herbstreit channeled his inner Don Draper and claimed to not remember much about Muschamp at all.

To be fair to Herbstreit, he seems to be taking Muschamp’s trash talk in stride. After all, both of their alma mater’s are about to go head-to-head for the first time in three decades with a lot on the line.
We’ll see whether Muschamp or Herbstreit is the last man laughing after the Bulldogs face the Buckeyes for a spot in the national title game on Saturday. If it’s Ohio State, maybe Herby will offer to take Muschamp out to lunch.
