If college football fans across the country didn’t know Mecole Hardman’s name before today, he’s well on his way to making sure that changes.

Georgia’s exciting junior receiver scored his second touchdown of the day against Middle Tennessee State on a punt return midway through the second quarter, zigzagging through the coverage team for a 70-yard score.

Hardman scored the No. 3 Bulldogs’ first touchdown with a 5-yard catch early in the first quarter, and his pair of touchdowns today matches his total through the first two games of the year.

Georgia currently leads 35-7 late in the first half, so Hardman still has plenty of time to bolster his already-awesome outing with another touchdown or two.
