Quarterbacks adjusting to Mike Bobo, Brock Bowers a machine, ‘everybody practices at Georgia’
ATHENS — Kirby Smart and his Georgia Bulldogs held their fifth practice of the spring behind locked gates on Saturday, many anticipating the team’s first scrimmage taking place.

Bowers is one of the most unique football players, I have ever seen.
Right up there, with, Herschell Walker, Bo Jackson, Deion Sanders, Lawrence Taylor, Larry Czonka, Jim Brown, Cam Newton, ..and, what I've always imagined Jim Thorpe to be, from what my Dad told me.
Pure Athletes, playing football at the position of their choice...in the sport of their choice. Could play anything with a stick or a ball and requires hand-eye coordination and/or brute force. A rare breed.
Bowers for Heisman...2023!
Bowers really is an amazing kid! This Georgia team sounds pretty dialed in
Lol...they (whole team) are "The Machine". Bowers is the "Drive Shaft"...Kirby is "The Driver".
@BigDawg61 good analogy!
I won’t forget Bowers as a freshman making the out route catch down the same sideline Herschel torched sc, but I was thinking he would get tackled, but he out ran the defense just like Herschel did. Go Dawgs!!
Great write up.
'turnover ratio was one of the few areas where Georgia football did excel in 2022.'
Probably meant 'did not'
Mike Bobo starting to look like Jim Chaney! 😂
@Rabid_Canine Yes! Thank you.... caught it too --- and it's early, but some trends ARE emerging
"Bowers for Heisman"....makes me smile, but alas, there is so much competition out there....mainly from his TEAM mates!!!
Bowers is deceptively fast. He would make a good RB. Strapping kid. Love his cut and run routine..blows by defenders. If he delivers the stats this year...good chance he will be in the Heisman chase. I know he impresses the NFL scouts. There is nothing rank and file about Bowers....he is elite!
@GtheGreek Why not Bowers for Heisman, I agree!
Bowers, taking nothing away from him because he's a great player, was helped by Washington.
Washington was great too of course, but even I could probably help Bowers as he doesn't need much help.
He could have a Heisman season. Which college player is better than Bowers?
Go, Dawgs!
"He could have a Heisman season. Which college player is better than Bowers?"___JW
Lol...I like the way you think. "Which college player is better than Bowers?"...indeed.
Not trying to take anything away from Washington...but, he wasn't even on the field, when Bowers made his eye-opening debut in 2021. In fact, he saw the field very sparingly, due to various injuries over the last 2 years.
Lol...sorry, Washington gets NO CREDIT for Bowers success. None. In fact, it's more..."the other way around", if you ask me. A lot of Washington's success can be attributed to Bowers.
Defenses spent "part" of the 2021 season and "the whole" of the 2022 season scheming against UGA 's elite TE, Brock Bowers, only to get burned, time and again by Washington or Seither or Fitzpatrick. The "threat of Bowers" opened the door for some of the other guys to walk through.
IF...UGA didn't have a "Brock Bowers"...it's highly likely, that Washington would have had to play hurt, like Bowers did, in 2021 (shoulder injury req. Surgery), risking serious injury. He may have wound up missing more playing time, than he actually did.
You gotta love what all of the TE's are putting on the field in Athens. That's my kind of football. Kirby Smart has taken a position group (TE) and exploited all of the untapped potential, that position has ALWAYS harbored. A TE is a hybrid of the fullback and slot receiver, in today's offenses. Back in the day...the TE was considered a 3rd O-Tackle, that you could occasionally throw the ball to. Lol
