Best: Chubb, Michel and Herrien versus South Carolina

Georgia’s offense, especially the running game was pretty bad all year. But for one game in Columbia, the running game was amazing.

Against South Carolina, Nick Chubb, Sony Michel and Brian Herrien combined for 326 yards. Michel led the game with 133 yards on 21 carries, Chubb was right behind with 121 yards on 16 carries with two touchdowns and Herrien finished with 82 yards on nine carries.

Despite Jacob Eason’s worst game of 2016, the running back trio led Georgia to a 28-14 win. For one game in the middle of 2016, the run game looked like what fans expected.
