The rivalry between the Georgia Bulldogs and the Tennessee Vols once again took center stage in 2022 as the two top-5 teams squared off at Sanford Stadium in November.
While the Vols had a bounce-back season in Josh Heupel’s second year in Knoxville, Georgia defeated No. 1 Tennessee 27-13 en route to its second straight national championship.

Ratledge, a junior, was part of the 2021 Georgia team that went into Neyland Stadium and defeated the Vols, 41-17.
On the "Real Talk Georgia" podcast, Ratledge discussed the two stadiums, giving Neyland the nod as the "best stadium in the SEC" due to its design.
"No offense to Sanford or Georgia fans, but Neyland Stadium is the best stadium in the SEC," Ratledge said. "112,000 and it’s a bowl? Right on the river?"
"Imagine if our fans were in that stadium how loud it would have gotten."

Ratledge was focused on the design of Neyland compared to Sanford, saying noise "leaks out" of Sanford due to the stadium not being a closed bowl.
