While Beck is someone that needs to play extremely well if Georgia is gong to win, the UGA running backs need to play extremely well as well to help him out.

But instead of picking just one running back, it's best to mention them all.

Freshman Nate Frazier has done very well while his teammates have been struggling with injuries. But now that the pressure is off of him he may be able to focus more on making the big play rather than just trying to stay healthy. Cash Jones is also a very important player for Georgia in this game because he has turned into UGA's third down back recently. Third downs are arguably the most important plays in football, so if he can help Georgia extend some drives then he will definitely be pulling his weight.

Lastly there is Roderick Robinson and Branson Robinson. Roderick made his return against Georgia Tech this past Friday, so he should be in an even better spot to be more effective in the SEC Championship game. Branson on the other hand has not made his return yet, but according to Smart it sounds like that could happen this weekend.

All four of these players will see a fair amount of snaps against Texas, so it's hard to predict who will have the best game. But it is important that they all pull their weight, that way there will be less pressure on Beck and the passing game.
