Nick Chubb’s in-huddle rant ignites Bulldogs’ run game...

quote:

“Chubb came into the huddle, and that’s the first time that he screamed at everybody,” senior receiver Malcolm Mitchell said during a postgame interview on the Georgia Bulldogs Radion Network. “At one time at least.”

Asked what it was Chubb said, Mitchell chuckled: “Get it together!”

That in itself motivated me to go out there and block in the run game. I’m going, ‘all right, he doesn’t get like that often. He’s fixin’ to break a long one!’ He doesn’t same much. Game day he just plays football. But when he spoke up I was like, ‘all right, it’s about to get serious out here.’”

It did get serious indeed. Here’s what happened after the Bulldogs clapped in unison and broke that huddle:

Chubb over right tackle – 11 yards;
Chubb over left tackle – 13 yards;
Chubb around left end – 11 yards;
Greyson Lambert play-action pass to Mitchell – 11 yards (plus facemask penalty);
Chubb up middle – 9 yards and touchdown!
Five plays, 65 yards, one minute and 34 seconds later, the rout was on.
