And I’m not looking for the Stanford Band here.
For Georgia players like freshman AJ Kruah from Philadelphia — the Eagles current compliment of former Bulldogs on the the roster — helping them to shape a Super Bowl assortment of players —is the possibility of the opportunity of getting a chance to play for one of the best organizations in the NFL is the chance of a lifetime. And one thing is clear — the Eagles recruit talent from everywhere.
Last week in the Sugar Bowl — Georgia’s had one last chance. Actually — they had several. Georgia was trailing Ol’ Miss 37–34 with six seconds left. On the ensuing kickoff — Georgia attempted a lateral after running the ball out of the end zone — a play that concluded with the ball being thrown out of bounds in that same end zone for a safety to make the score 39–34. As both teams stormed the field — the officials regained order as time had not expired — forcing the trophy and the stage back off of the field.
Georgia then kicked the ball onside — and recovered it seemingly as the game ended. But the clock had not started-forcing the stage and trophy off of the field again. Finally after one last gasp for the Georgia offense from their own twenty-nine yard line and a series of laterals — Gunner Stockton was tackled to end the game — allowing the stage and the trophy to finally get onto the field.
The game was finally over.
