imageEric Stokes details what it's like practicing against George Pickens, young Georgia receivers

George Pickens did it again this weekend. The SEC Network released some practice footage of Pickens making another acrobatic catch during a Georgia practice. It's something he did last preseason and then made a number of similar catches during the season for the Bulldogs. But while many saw the Pickens catch as a

    Eric Stokes is one tough dude. A real motivator. He will take his pummeling game to the Razorbacks...big time. Both he and Pickens will make 1st All-SEC team by season's end.

    Eric....let's see an interception on Saturday!!!

    GO DAWGS!!!

    1. I like Eric Stokes. He handles himself well on and (apparently) off the field.
    2. I agree with him 100 percent that SEC officials rarely, if ever, call offensive pass interference. In fact, I would argue about half the time they call DEFENSIVE pass interference, it's not interference at all. Officials need to understand that merely making contact with a receiver is NOT automatically pass interference. Also, they need to do a better job of waiving off PI calls when the ball is truly uncatchable, like 15 yards out of bounds.
    3. I wish players today didn't equate TALKING a good game with PLAYING one. In today's world, a kid who fumbles, drops a pass, commits a crucial penalty, etc., is yapping just as much -- if not more -- than a kid who makes a great play. I know I'm old-school (and proud of it), but I long for the days when actually winning the game was satisfaction enough.

    I love our Dbs and the progress they've made under Coach Warren and Kirby. It is amazing that none of our top 3 Cbs have a single INT. You would think they would've at least caught an errant pass in their careers.
