UGA Football: Davis, Seniors Have Their Day

By John Frierson
Staff Writer

Saturday began and ended with Jordan Davis, the larger-than-life Georgia football star whose size and talent are only exceeded by his heart, humanity and personality.

During the pregame Senior Day festivities on Dooley Field, when all 30 of Georgia’s seniors were recognized before the top-ranked Bulldogs’ 56-7 trouncing of Charleston Southern, the loudest roar came at the end, when big No. 99 was introduced.

For those of us who know just how much his time as a Bulldog has meant to Davis, it was a goosebump moment.

Later, when the 6-foot-6 and 340-pound nose tackle lined up in the backfield and scored on a 1-yard run for the game’s first touchdown, the goosebumps returned. Davis and fellow nose tackle Jalen Carter have been blockers in Georgia’s goal line “jumbo” package several times this season, but this time it was Davis’ chance to get in the end zone.

ATHENS, Ga. — In its final home game of the season Saturday, the top-ranked Georgia football team improved to 11-0 by posting an easy 56-7 victory over Charleston Southern at Sanford Stadium.

The Bulldogs’ home finale featured a pregame sendoff of the team’s large group of seniors, including nose tackle Jordan Davis. A finalist for both the Outland and Bronko Nagurski trophies as one of the top linemen in the country, the 6-foot-6 and 340-pound Davis plunged into the end zone from the 1-yard line for Georgia’s first score of the game.
