The colleges famously clashed in the 2021 national playoff championship game with no. 3 Georgia smashing no.1 Alabama out of the park 33-18.
Lassiter was part of the match and won his first national title, one the Bulldogs would win the next year as well.
Ryans will look to harness that competitive edge as the Texans have their best team in ages.
