Receivers/Running Backs: A-

The skill players played very well for the Dawgs this past Saturday. Nick Chubb and Sony Michel combined for 136 yards on the ground while getting 42 yards in relief duty from electric freshman D’Andre Swift. Terry Godwin arguably made the catch of the year in the 2nd quarter when he made a one-handed touchdown grab on a fade pass thrown by Jake Fromm.

The catch drew similarities to a similar catch A.J. Green made against Colorado many years ago during his time in Athens. Javon Wims and Mecole Hardman also both had a few receptions and both players have established themselves as legitimate threats in the receiving game for the Dawgs. The tight ends did not do much in this game but I expect that to change in the weeks ahead.

As Alistair went into earlier, this team is loaded in terms of weapons. I fully expect to see some of them used more effectively as the season goes on. It will also be interesting to see if Jacob Eason gets them the ball more when he returns.
