2. Nate Frazier's career game came at the perfect time

Nate Frazier had the game of his career against Mississippi State. He may have only run the ball 12 times, but he exploded for 181 yards and one touchdown. For those doing the math at home, that's an impressive 15.1 yards per carry.

Frazier was not having the best season so far this year, so this big performance came at the perfect time. He began the season as Georgia's starting running back, but Chauncey Bowen's emergence this year took that job from him. But this game not only showed that Frazier might deserve to be the starter again, but it proves that he is someone Georgia's offense can't live without.

So while Kirby Smart and his staff decide how to divvy up the carries between Frazier and Bowens, Georgia can rest easy because they have two running backs are are more than capable of starting in the SEC. Everyone will have an opinion on who should get the most carries, but at the end of the day this is a good problem to have as both running backs deserve as many carries as they can get.
