ATLANTA — The Georgia Bulldogs regular season is officially over.
The football team will not get to play this weekend because of cases of COVID-19 on the Vanderbilt football team, and a game that was postponed earlier this season is now officially canceled.
Georgia vs Vandy game on Saturday has been cancelled due to "the Vanderbilt football squad size and position availability falling below roster minimum requirements?

The Vanderbilt game was first scheduled for Saturday Dec. 5 at 4 p.m in Athens. The SEC moved the game to Dec. 19.
However, lingering cases of COVID-19 has forced the league to cancel the game for good. Georgia will not play again until their bowl game.

Georgia had a game with Missouri postponed earlier this year due to COVID-19. They had another run-in with COVID-19 when Alabama Crimson Tide head coach Nick Saban and the school athletics director tested positive just days before a game.
