Georgia's Kirby Smart blasts ESPN and referees after Bulldogs' win over No. 1 Texas

Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs went on the road Saturday night and defeated No. 1 Texas 30-15 in a showdown between two of the best teams in the country so far in the college football season. Georgia was in control for most of the game, but had to overcome a controversial decision by the referees that allowed the Longhorns to get back into the game in the third quarter.

In case you missed it, the referees initially called pass interference against Texas after Jahdae Barron intercepted a pass thrown by Georgia's Carson Beck.

Longhorns fans then threw debris onto the field, causing the game to be stopped for several minutes. After that stoppage, the referees overturned the decision and gave the ball to Texas at the Georgia 10-yard line. The Longhorns scored two plays later to make the score 23-15.

Smart wasn't happy after the game when he called out ESPN and the referees during his on-field interview, saying, “Nobody gave us a chance. Your entire network doubted us. Nobody believed us. And then they tried to rob us.” Calls, in this place and these guys are so resilient.

Georgia, which improved to 6-1 with the win, now has a bye week. The Bulldogs will return to action on November 2nd against Florida.
