Butkus Award Winner

Best LB I've ever seen play at Georgia. Kid is amazing.

He's the best one I have seen. Just think if Mora could have landed him. Thank goodness it leaked that his coach was leaving on signing day.

Was going to start a thread something along the lines of Frick UGA but Roquan

I'll just put it here instead. Great, great player. Glad he'll be gone after this year.

I'm going to guess that his performance yesterday will get him the win in those other two awards as well.

You might want to check Jarvis Jones stats.

Jarvis was a one trick pony and a liability vs the run.

Roquan Smith is unbelievable at everything. He's always around the ball. If he gets his hands on you your going down. He sniffs out screens better than any backer we've ever had at Georgia and he's lightning fast. He is by far the best defensive player we have had since Pollack.

I love Jarvis, but Roquan is on a different level.

They also play different positions

Jarvis Jones was no slouch.

He is up against Bradley Chubb and Minkah Fitzpatrick for the Bednarik, those two plus Josey jewell and Ed Oliver for the Nagurski

Roquan looks statistically better than Oliver and Minkah but Jewell and Chubb have put up impressive numbers. Of course, they're on teams going to middling bowls and you could argue that UGA isn't in the playoff without Roquan at ILB.
