You are a walk-on kicker at
#UGA
. No one really knew who you were before the season started.
You are replacing a legend.
You just made the longest kick of your career.
A game winner.
Against a top-10 team in a NY6 bowl game.
How do you celebrate?
Jack Podlesny gives thanks
This one is for you, Tyler.
And Larry.
And Lewis.
And you, Conley. And you, Aaron.

"Florida State had a ton of opt outs though..."
Georgia had 21 players in the transfer portal and 5 starters sidelined due to injury.
But the narrative was that Georgia was at full strength and FSU was starting its equipment guys.
Was very loyal of Dan Lanning to stay and coach the
#UGA
defense through two games after already taking the Oregon job.
Easily could have understood him leaving the defense with Schumann and Muschamp. But despite the time crunch, he finished what he started.
Anonymous coach to ESPN: “I won’t be surprised if Tennessee scores 50. Georgia’s front is average. Their back end is below average. They really miss William Poole [who left the team early in September]. I don’t think their corners are special.”
I wouldn't use my name, either.
Four former
#Georgia
coaches were in attendance to see
#UGA
's National Championship ceremony today.
All four still live in Athens. That says a lot about how special this community is and how much they love the
#Dawgs
.
Ray Goff, Mark Richt, Vince Dooley, Jim Donnan
Jake Fromm battled and beat out not one, but two, five-star quarterbacks, who are going to be very good. Great even.
The guy is a winner. He is 12-0 against the SEC East and has almost beaten Alabama. Twice.
Say what you will about Fromm, but respect the hustle.
BREAKING: Stetson Bennett has been awarded the Burlsworth Trophy, the award given to the nation's most outstanding player who started his career as a walk-on.
What a night for Stetson who was named a Heisman finalist a few hours ago.
You cannot tell me Georgia is not one of the four best teams in the nation.
Dawgs are rolling over an FSU squad with a ton of opt-outs. Yet Georgia is without five starters as well.
Nick and Sony,
It has been a pleasure and an honor to cover your careers at the University of Georgia.
Two of the best I have seen in 25 years.
Good luck in the NFL. You both deserve it.
They stopped the buses on campus.
They police escort blocked off the intersections on Lumpkin Street.
After a private ceremony, they took Coach Dooley from the Catholic Center down Lumpkin, past Sanford Stadium and Dooley Field, one last time.
Fitting.
Georgia and Texas — thank y’all for everything.
For Icylinn, I’m most excited about what’s next — for both of us.
Today, I am declaring for the NFL Draft.
@PlayersTribune
Clemson is just so much bigger and faster. If you thought Notre Dame had a chance ... well you probably live in South Bend.
The Playoff Committee screwed up.
Ladd McConkey is smoother than old church steps. Catches everything and doesn't drift off that line like many receivers do. Take him in the first round of you want a winner.

The Stetson Bennett timeline will now see him among the nation's top four players:
BREAKING: After flipping wide receiver George Pickens away from Auburn,
#UGA
will land the No. 1 and No. 2 players (Clay Webb) from the state of Alabama.
Both five-stars.
Prayers up for UGA football this morning and the family of Devin Willock. The Bulldogs lost an amazing talent and great person in this double tragedy. Say a prayer for Willock and his family and the family of Chandler LeCroy. Another person is still in ICU. Details coming.
#UGA
needs to invite Vince Dooley, Ray Goff, Jim Donnan and Mark Richt to the national title ceremony on Saturday. All four former coaches live in the area, which is a testament to the school and community.
Honor them.
Give me a picture with 5 of UGA's coaches w/the new trophy.
He has his own house while the humans stand in the rain. He's the single most popular being in the entire stadium. There's an entire vet school ready to wait on him hand and paw. He's treated with the reverence which your organization claims to want for animals.
Idiots.
HE LOOKS MISERABLE!
No dog deserves to be packed up, carted from state to state, and paraded in front of a stadium full of screaming fans.
Animals are NOT mascots 👎
@UGAAthletics
must retire Uga immediately! He should be at home with a loving family.
Folks have taken many shots at Mark Richt. Some deserved, most were not. He never fires back.
Richt is a good man, a good coach, and a good Christian. Not in that order. He made boys into men and knocked the lid off the
#UGA
program. He deserves our respect and congratulations.
Sony Michel was in tears after the game was over. Such an emotional finish for him after the three previous TDs but then the fumble...
I'm not crying, you're crying
BREAKING: The No. 2 player in the nation, 5-star offensive tackle Amarius Mims, has committed to
#UGA
over Tennessee and childhood favorite Alabama.

BREAKING - The nation’s No.1 running back, five-star Branson Robinson, has committed to UGA.
Robinson is a record-holding powerlifter as well.
Deadlifts 720 pounds. Can squat over 630 and bench over 375.
Full coverage:
#UGA
has faced two teams in the top 10.
Oregon and Tennessee each only have one loss. Both losses are to
#Georgia
.
The
#Dawgs
defense only gave up a combined 16 points in those games.
"Just wait until Georgia has to play a real road game..."
Before tonight, Tennessee had won 14 games in a row at home.
Georgia has now won 14 games in a row on the road...
Braves and Dawgs winning a title in the same year.
Not sure Georgia folks could handle that. Their disappointment clogged veins might gives them a stroke.
Watching on TV or even being in the stands makes it hard to understand the size of these players. Here is an interesting perspective. Ladd and Kendall are normal-sized humans.
#Georgia
just finished the regular season 12-0.
Undefeated.
First time since 1980 they are 12-0.
No matter what happens going forward,
#Dawg
fans have to be proud of that.
"During its run as back-to-back national champions,
#Georgia
has beaten every program that either won or played for a national championship during the CFP era."
So happy for Matt Stafford.
He's finally getting a shot at the Super Bowl after of trying to drag Detroit there by the scuff of the neck.
Good luck to Sony and Leonard too.
🚨 BREAKING🚨
#Georgia
has flipped FIVE-STAR safety KJ Bolden away from FSU!
The Bulldogs beat out Auburn as well for the nation's No. 1 safety and No. 12 player overall.
Biggest flip of singing day.

🚨🚨 BREAKING 🚨🚨
The nation's No. 1 all-purpose running back has committed to
#Georgia
. He picked the
#Bulldogs
over Alabama, Oregon, and Texas A&M.
Complete coverage:
On the Kirby leaked audio.
No coach wants the confidentiality of his locker room breeched like this.
Yet, I think it makes him look great overall.
The language is bad. Some won't like it.
But I'd play it for every recruit who comes to visit.
Twice.
#Georgia
fans travel.
They filled the stands in Miami
They drank Arizona dry.
They paraded through the streets of New Orleans.
They took over South Bend.
They are going to descend on Indianapolis in droves
Want to know when you don't belong in the playoffs?
When you have to go for it on fourth down
....from your side of the field
....while still in the first quarter
....because you already trail by 21
Special thank u to
@DevinWillock
for taking time for my grandson when he didn’t have to. U went out of ur way to make him feel special and U made his day!! Good luck next year! Go Dawgs!
Nolan Smith apparently addressed the team just a few minutes ago. Let's just say his message was well received. Can't think of a better leader on this squad to get his teammates fired up.
BREAKING: 5-star offensive lineman Clay Webb has committed to
#UGA
over Alabama and Clemson. Tough to remember when Georgia last pulled a five-star recruit out of the state of Alabama.
Story:
James Cook has over 1,000 rushing yards this season.
George Pickens has 1,000 receiving yards this season.
Both were drafted in the second round of 2022.
(Neither by the Falcons)
