For the last few weeks, various media sites have hosted some Georgia football players in the 2022 NFL Draft. This year it feels like more than ever, the Dawgs are finally getting the recognition and spotlight they deserve.
These interviews allow the media and the world to see them without their helmet and pads. They are great ways to see the player’s personality and potential fanbases to see who they may get in the draft.
Georgia fans know how incredible these players are, but now the world can see it. Seeing so many guys get brought on shows that the narrative is slowly shifting its focus onto the Dawgs.
Is Georgia football the new fascination of sports media?
With so much buzz surrounding the Dawgs, it seems like they are the hot topic. Since that national championship, Georgia has been a topic of discussion, and rightfully so.
Is this the beginning of seeing the tide shift? No pun intended right there, but Georgia is taking more spotlight away from other teams, and while it’s because of that 2021 defense, it’s nice to see.

This love will likely be temporary because it’s Georgia, but for now, the Dawgs and its fanbase should enjoy being the center of attention. Much like it did with Alabama after Nick Saban won and kept winning. If that national championship is the beginning of a new dynasty, the fascination will only grow.
The Dawgs have to keep winning to keep this fascination going, but for now, this draft class has kept the attention on Georgia longer than usual. This weekend will be a big one for the Dawgs, and we’ve said that a few times, but it honestly feels weird being a fan right now.
Georgia fans aren’t used to the team getting all this love. While we know it should happen, it hasn’t. Sometimes we have to pinch ourselves to make sure all of this isn’t a dream, and we’re not waking up to play in the national title again.
The Dawgs have gotten the attention of ESPN and many others — now it’s time to keep it and show that the success Georgia has in this draft isn’t a one-time thing.
