What Kirby Smart said about Deandre Baker dropping the ball short of goal line on pick-6
Georgia DB Deandre Baker got the blowout party started Saturday against South Carolina with his pick-six.
Baker nabbed the deflected ball and returned it for the Dawgs’ first TD. However, following the replay, it was apparent that Baker dropped the ball short of the goal line. A heads-up play by a teammate certainly saved some embarrassment for Baker and a potential TD.
On Monday during his press conference, Kirby Smart was asked about the play, and he made sure to indicate that Baker would get some extra work on that in practice Monday.
WSB (ABC-TV)’s Zach Klein shared Smart’s reaction:
