ROQUAN SMITH – Linebacker (2015-2017)

Smith has dominated each of his first three matchups so far, twice capturing a whopping 98 percent of the vote and 97 percent for the third. In a battle between the two remaining defenders, Smith's matchup with Jones should be much closer.

—2017 First Team All-American

—2017 Butkus Award Winner (10th in Heisman Trophy voting)

—2017 SEC Defensive Player of the Year

—Led team in Tackles in 2016 and 2017

—8th pick overall in 2018 NFL Draft

JARVIS JONES – Linebacker (2011-2012)

Although not as much as Smith, Jones has dominated his matchups as well. Despite playing for just two seasons at Georgia, he was a terror in each of them (just ask Florida). Will Jones' sensational two-season tenure as a Bulldog be enough to upset the bracket's No. 1 seed?

—2011 and 2012 First Team All-American

—28 Career sacks (T-3rd most in school history)

—14½ sacks in 2012 (most in single season in school history)

—24½ tackles for loss in 2012 (most in single season in school history)

—17th Overall Pick in 2013 NFL Draft
