Georgia In The AP Top 25
* The Bulldogs have now held a spot in the AP Top 25 for 66 consecutive weeks, which ranks fourth nationally, dating back to the start of the 2017 season. Following Georgia’s second loss of the season, the Bulldogs fell out of the Top 10 on Nov. 8 for the first time since Sept. 25, 2017. This was a streak of 54 straight weeks in the Top 10 and that trailed only Alabama and Clemson, who each have been in the Top 10 for 92 consecutive weeks.
Bulldogs Extend The Nation’s Longest Active Bowl Streak to 24 Games
* The Bulldogs enter the 2021 season with the nation’s longest active bowl game streak at 24. Overall, the Bulldogs rank among the nation’s top post-season teams with 57 all-time appearances. Georgia owns a 33-21-3 record in post-season games. Last season, Georgia defeated No. 8 Cincinnati 24-21 in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. The Bearcats entered the bowl game undefeated at 9-0. * The win gave the Bulldog seniors a 44-9 record, which tied for the most wins by a senior class in school history. The 2005 and 2019 seniors also had 44 wins. The 2021 seniors enter this year 31-7.
Jack-Pod
* Junior Jack Podlesny was 13-for-16 on field goals and 38-for-38 on PATs in 2020. He made his debut in the 2020 season opening win at Arkansas and capped his first year by earning Offensive MVP honors at the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. In the 24-21 win over #8 Cincinnati, Podlesny accounted for 10 points, including the game-winning 53-yard field goal with three seconds remaining. * Georgia enters the 2021 season with the NCAA record for Consecutive PATs Made. The streak stands at 330 and involves six kickers (Marshall Morgan, Patrick Beless, William Ham, David Marvin, Rodrigo Blankenship and Podlesny). * Georgia’s snappers this year include returning starters junior Payne Walker and redshirt sophomore William Mote. Walker snaps on field goals and PATs while Mote handles the snaps for punts.
One Of The Country’s Top Punting Units
* Senior punter and 2020 Ray Guy Award finalist Jake Camarda was the 2020 SEC Special Teams Player of the Year. He posted an SEC best 46.6 average that ranked fourth in the country. *Camarda punted 36 times and placed 18 inside the 20 and had 17 that have traveled 50+ in 2021. Opponents had four punt returns for 29 yards with 17 coming on a blocked punt versus No. 25 Missouri. Camarda also kicked off (36 of 41 touchbacks) and Georgia led the SEC and was eighth nationally in coverage (16.8 yds/ret). * Now beginning his fourth season, Camarda is averaging 45.5 yards/punt, which is on pace for a school record. Drew Butler, the 2009 Ray Guy Award winner, owns the Bulldog record with a 45.4 mark.
Back Deep For The Dogs
* In the KOR game, junior Kearis Jackson averaged 27.1 yards on 11 returns (298 yards), which ranked fourth in the SEC. The team is fifth nationally at 29.7. * Because WR/PR Dominick Blaylock missed the year with a knee injury, Jackson also handled the punt returns. Jackson had an SEC-high 15 returns and had a career-long 52 yarder against South Carolina * During the first part of the 2020 season, junior Kenny McIntosh played a key part in the return game before sustaining an injury during the fourth game of the year at #2 Alabama. He finished with six returns for 218 yards (SEC-best 36.3 average). McIntosh’s longest of the year was a 48 yarder at Arkansas.
