Big man 1st down: Ross Tucker gushes over Sedrick Van Pran’s key 3rd down fumble recovery

Sedrick Van Pran lived an offensive lineman’s dream on Saturday during Georgia’s scoring drive in the first quarter.
CBS Sports analyst Ross Tucker, a former offensive lineman himself at Princeton and in the NFL, gushed over it. Rucker whooped immediately as Van Pran took off after a fumbled snap, and converted a 3rd down and 1 for a first down after he rumbled for several yards.
“Are you kidding me,” Tucker said. “… Van Pran, the big man, jumps over the D-tackle, breaks a tackle, busts out a spin move, and that’s Georgia’s longest run of the day!”
Van Pran proved to be a bright spot for Georgia, as it was a key play on an eventual 8-play scoring drive as Carson Beck scored on a 1-yard run with 5:42 remaining.
Georgia’s offense later saw key runs from Kendall Milton and Daijun Edwards, who each went for at least 20 yards.
