WATCH: Who? Deandre Baker snags pick-six for first Georgia TD against South Carolina
After star South Carolina WR Deebo Samuel responded “who?” when asked about Georgia DB Deandre Baker, you just know Baker wanted to respond with a big game.
He’s off to a good start. After an early pass interference penalty, Baker snagged an interception and returned it for a touchdown.
As you can see in the video below, Baker made a nice play on a tipped ball along the sideline and sprints untouched to the end zone:

Even though Baker dropped the ball before crossing the goal line, it wasn’t caught by the refs (and another Georgia defender recovered it anyway).
Despite that blooper, it was a huge play from Baker. Perhaps now Samuel will learn his name.
