10 best celebrity Halloween costumes of 2026
These 10 celebrities' Halloween costumes of 2026 brought some of the year's most memorable looks to life
One glaring matchup problem Georgia can’t hide against Florida
Georgia, ranked No. 3, heads into its Week 9 rivalry against No. 17 Florida with a top‑10 run defense that has recently faltered, allowing 161 yards to Alabama and 192 to Auburn. Florida’s standout rusher Jadan Baugh, who’s posted 763 yards and 13 TDs this season and helps the Gators average 194.3 rushing yards per game (fourth in the SEC), could exploit that vulnerability. If Baugh can flash early‑down success—mirroring the 125‑yard rushes that have powered Jon Sumrall’s teams to a 37‑3 record—the Gators gain a credible upset path. Otherwise, Georgia’s stronger overall defense should keep Florida’s offense in check.

One single matchup gives Auburn chance against Ole Miss
In Week 9 of the SEC, Auburn travels to Oxford to face Ole Miss, a game that could hinge on quarterback Byrum Brown’s rushing ability. After a massive upset over top‑ranked Georgia, Auburn’s ground game faltered against LSU, but the Rebels have surrendered the most rushing yards in the conference—over 161 per game, including 222 to Texas. Brown’s 480 career rushing yards and six rushing TDs give Auburn a potential edge, though the Tigers’ offensive line has allowed 30 sacks this season, making pass protection a liability. If Auburn can exploit Ole Miss’s weak run defense, the matchup may tilt in their favor despite being the underdog.
