When you turn to the rushing section in Georgia's record books, you'll notice a lot of names from recent years. Kirby Smart and Dell McGee have amassed a lot of talent over the last six seasons. In career yards rushing alone, three of the top ten and four of the top 15 have played under Smart. Statistically, which of these backs did the best while playing for the Dawgs?
Don't forget, this only counts the seasons under Smart. Players like Nick Chubb and Sony Michel accumulated additional stats under Mark Richt and Bryan McClendon.
In terms of career yards rushing, current Bulldog Kenny McIntosh has 753, Kendall Milton has 457, and Daijun Edwards has 433.
Both Jake Fromm and Justin Fields made that list, but Stetson Bennett did not. Bennett ran the ball very well in 2021, but only had one touchdown rush and has four in his career.
Speaking of quarterbacks, here's a deeper look at them.
Of course, most of the touchdown rushes are done by the running backs, as you can see in the most games list.
This next category makes me think of Herschel Walker's 28 games in his career when he had 100 or more yards rushing. That's in an 11-game schedule, too. Also, it did not count the two additional games with 100 in the 1981 and 1983 Sugar Bowls (bowl stats did not count until the 2002 season).
Nick Chubb ended up in second place all-time at Georgia, with 24 games with 100 or more rush yards, but only 11 came under Smart. Sony Michel had 11 total in his career.
