After former Alabama defensive coordinator took over as head coach for the University of Georgia, fellow coach Mark Fox fired a shot that should see plenty of bulletin boards in Auburn, via Macon Telegram:

"He's used to beating Auburn," Fox said, drawing a loud applause.

Fox isn't wrong — Smart and Alabama beat Auburn six of the nine years he was with the Crimson Tide. With Georgia, Smart will be tasked with doing the same with his own group of guys.
