Since Auburn and Georgia first played in 1892, the annual battle between these teams -- known as the The Deep South's Oldest Rivalry -- has been one of the more evenly matched series in all of college football. Auburn leads the series by two games; Georgia has scored 38 more points.

With just a day until the two top 25 teams square off for the 115th time, DawgNation takes a look at five prospects the Bulldogs beat the Tigers for during the Mark Richt era.
