George Pickens flashes his elite ability with 2 touchdown grabs vs. Mizzou

Georgia WR George Pickens has had an up and down 2020 season, but when he’s at his best, he’s one of the most talented receivers in the SEC.

He’s showing that against Mizzou on Saturday afternoon. He bookended the halftime break with a pair of impressive touchdown catches and has 4 catches for 103 yards and 2 scores.

Here’s a look at his touchdown catch-and-run on Georgia’s first possession of the third quarter:

Here’s the impressive TD catch he had before halftime, which was probably the more impressive of the 2. The Tigers were flagged for pass interference on the play, too:

It hasn’t been the marquee season for sophomore #Georgia WR George Pickens but he’s still supremely talented, and can make catches like these with his length and athleticism.

Will he make any more big plays before the day is done? We’ll see as Georgia tries to hold on to a 28-14 lead in Columbia.
