Georgia football vs Deebo Samuel

So what’s the big deal with South Carolina? The big deal is Deebo Samuel, and he can single-handedly carry South Carolina past Georgia and snatch away the East spot in the SEC Championship game.

“He’s probably the most underrated player in all of college football. I don’t know that everyone in the country knows what the SEC knows about Deebo Samuel. The guy is phenomenal,” said Kirby Smart to the press.

Samuel is a receiver, kick returner, punt returner, and sometimes quarterback. Samuel had 10 touches in last weeks win over Coastal Carolina to the tune of 112 yards and a touchdown. If Gamecock offensive coordinator Bryan McClendon doesn’t get Samuel 15 touches this week on offense alone, he should be fired. Expect to see Samuel at every possible position and attack every part of the defense.
