Georgia released a list of its players of the week following Saturday’s 24-10 home win over South Carolina.
The top-ranked Bulldogs had several outstanding performers in their sixth comfortable SEC win, so it was probably tough picking out just six guys to recognize.
Running backs Sony Michel and Nick Chubb received the player of the week honors on offense. Christian Payne and Cameron Nizialek were special teams players of the week, while Roquan Smith and Reggie got the honors on defense.
The ‘Dawgs are getting set to travel to No. 14 Auburn this week for a colossal showdown that could have College Football Playoff implications.
Georgia head coach Kirby Smart tweeted out the players of the week on his official Twitter account Monday evening.
