Rushing Touchdowns

UGA games seemed much harder to watch this year, even with a regular season record with only one loss. I know we have analyzed to death Fromm's performance and the receivers performance. But I think I finally found the one thing that I missed most this year. Here is a count of rushing Touchdowns of 20 yards or longer for the past three years:
EDIT I excluded cupcake teams.
2017:
Nick Chubb 4 (Miss St, V, UK, OK)
Sony Michel 9 (UT, V, UM, UF, UF, UK, OK, OK, OK)
Holyfield 1 (UF)
Hardman 1 (UM)
Swift 1 (AU)
Total of 16
2018:
Swift 4 (UF, UK, UK, AU)
Holyfield 1 (V)
Nauta 1 (UT) fumble recovery and run
Total of 6
2019:
Swift 1 (UK)
Total of 1
What has happened to our breakaway runs?

WRs who can’t catch or get separation
Fromm lack of passing this year
Defenses stack the box

To be fair, defenses have been stacking the box on us for all three years IMO.

poor run blocking and not enough perimeter runs imo

I thought Kindley and Hill played a little bit too heavy. Couldn't pull interior linemen to set up perimeter runs.

I may not know what I'm talking about here, but I wish we would run those counter power plays with the pulling guards.
Tor whatever that shite UF ran against us when they beat are arse and only threw it like 8 times.

Since our OL is supposedly better this season, the obvious main difference is the RB's.

Literally no one has said this since about game 4.

Run blocking sucked all year. There were very few holes to run through. The great Georgia wall was like trying to run through a wall.

Kirby said it was a 10% increase this year at some point during the season.

FWIW, I did a very similar thread with some more rushing stat breakdowns before the A&M game

I understand the boxes were more stacked, but we also threw the ball more often as the season wore on. I think part (but DEFINITELY not all) of Fromm’s problems was the amount of passes he was being asked to throw this year.

Kmac had a long one vs. Arky State as well.
I steadfastly believe and said it often that perimeter blocking was as much of a loss as the downfield and catching production. We took for granted how much pride Godwin, Mecole, Nauta, Ridley, and Holloman took in blocking. There were a few opportunities where if the next level was blocked or attempted to be blocked a long run was to be had.
It’s all on the rear view now. The boys have to and will improve in all facets of the game. Otherwise, stars and potential don’t matter.

Chubb and Michele struck fear in our opponents. The current guys do not even with a badass line blocking for them.
No real reason to not crowd the box due to no down field threat also does not help.
