Some Things You Might Not Know

What can I say... If you predicted that Georgia would lose to Vanderbilt and Kentucky, but defeat Auburn than you are a better fan than I. Then again it has happened before. Back in 1973, Georgia lost to both in back-to-back weeks and later on defeated Auburn. They also defeated the Yellow Jackets that year. Will it happen again? I don't know, but here are some more things you might not know.

Here are the 3 running backs and there total touches...

Kregg Lumpkin -- 132 rushes, 708 yards, 5 TD... 15 receptions, 103 yards, 1 TD... 1 kickoff return, 11 yards... 148 total touches, 822 yards, 6 TD

Danny Ware -- 64 rushes, 261 yards, 3 TD... 12 receptions, 165 yards... 2 kickoff returns, 30 yards... 78 total touches, 456 yards, 3 TD

A lot of you are comparing Eric Zeier's freshman season to Matthew Stafford... OK Stafford has a lot fewer TD passes and a lot more interceptions than Zeier did back in 1991...

But as starters both defeated Auburn and both Georgia teams scored 37 points...

The bad news is that both lost to Vanderbilt their freshmen year.

Will Matthew Stafford put up numbers like Eric Zeier when his collegiate career?

That is even something that I don't know...
