"Najee Harris has been extremely under-rated by the Alabama fan base. I think that's going to change next season though."

Agree with this 100%. If Najee runs more in the two losses this year it makes a big difference. Guy is scary good.

Underrated for UGA is Aaron Murray. He owns a lot of SEC passing records and would probably be a national champion if Richt hadn't so badly mismanaged the roster in 2012 to the point where we had fewer scholarship players than USC, who was on probation.

Underrated from another school is definitely Knile Davis. He was a force for Arkansas who gets forgotten because he came after McFadden/Jones/Hillis and then got hurt going into the 2011 season. Petrino's passing games always got the publicity but they were at their best when they established Davis on the ground.

I agree. I think they're going to run the ball more this season and Harris is going to have a monster year.

Jake Fromm. He will be in the Florida-Georgia Hall of Fame
In 3 games vs the Gators...

41-61 for 620 yards
6 TD's 1 INT

For UF I am going to go with David Reese. He was a quiet guy at MLB who was a 4 year starter. He wasn't the greatest but very solid. When he was out in 2018 vs UK they ran for 303 yards against us.

Not sure what it was about that game that brought out the best in him. I think coming off of a bye week helped.

UF's most underrated player recently was Mike Gillislee. He was a no nonsense, hard power runner and the linchpin for the 2012 team.

its crazy about Drew Lock considering led all FBS in passing TDs in a single season and broke the SEC record in 2017. Which obviously was broken by Burrow this year.
