Georgia Bulldogs safety, Jake Pope, has issued an apology following a controversial video that surfaced after the team's loss to Ole Miss. The video showed Pope seemingly celebrating the Rebels' victory, sparking criticism from fans and even his own head coach, Kirby Smart.

In a statement posted on social media, Pope clarified the situation, explaining that he was surprised to see some friends and family members after the game. "I was also surprised to see them as well and that’s why you saw the reaction that I gave via the video," he wrote.

Pope emphasized his unwavering commitment to the Georgia Bulldogs and expressed remorse for any negative attention his actions may have caused. He stated, "I am Georgia through thick and thin and have never loved a group of guys more than the guys I go to battle with day in and day out."

While the incident has generated significant buzz, Pope's apology seems to have been well-received by fans and teammates alike. The Bulldogs will now focus on their upcoming games and strive to bounce back from this disappointing loss.
