— -- Former Georgia safety Tray Matthews, who was dismissed from the team earlier this month, confirmed to ESPN.com that he will indeed transfer to SEC rival  Auburn and receive a full scholarship. He will sit out the upcoming season before becoming eligible to play for Gus Malzahn's Tigers in 2015.

Matthews first tweeted the news Saturday afternoon:
