Brock Bowers lighting up social media after terrific 1st-half performance at South Carolina
By Sydney Hunte
Published:
Brock Bowers had 5 catches for 95 yards and 0 touchdowns over the 1st 2 games of the season.
Against South Carolina, though, the Georgia tight end and SEC Freshman of the Year has showed why he’s received preseason 1st-team All-American nods.
First, the sophomore took an end-around 5 yards into the end zone as Georgia opened up a 7-0 lead on its 1st possession. Later, he made a pretty catch in the end zone as the Bulldogs made it 21-0 in the 2nd quarter. He later benefitted from a little bit of improvisation on the part of Bennett, barely keeping the ball above ground on a catch that helped Georgia get closer to field-goal range.
Bowers, at the half, has 4 catches for 43 yards and a touchdown. And he’s drawing plenty of attention on social media at halftime as Georgia leads South Carolina 24-0:
Brock Bowers is going to have a 19-year NFL career isn't he.
