Another player Georgia football must be aware of is Mr. do-it-all Jahmyr Gibbs.

The freshman is officially a running back and ranks No.27 nationally with 745 rushing yards, but he can provide more than just carrying the ball.

He is more of an all-purpose back who can run out of the backfield, but he can also be a threat in the passing game, as he leads the team in catches with 35 and has 474 receiving yards with two touchdowns.

He also can be a threat when he is back in the endzone to return a kick as he has 519 yards total and has one 98-yard return for a touchdown.

This guy can do it all.

Gibbs is one of the most dangerous players when he is out there, if not the most dangerous player for Georgia Tech.

He was also a highly touted recruit coming out of high school, as he was rated the fourth-best running back in the nation.

This guy will have to be everywhere on the field on Saturday to try to dismantle the dawgs and keep it a close game. If the Dawgs contain Gibbs, the Yellow Jackets will have to fight twice as hard for yardage.
