Pete Fiutak of College Football News recently released a list of the top-30 players in the SEC for the 2020 college football season.
Georgia placed five players on the list:
#30 – RB Zamir White
#29 – QB Jamie Newman
#19 – LB Monty Rice
#17 – WR George Pickens
#4 – S Richard LeCounte
No. 17 – George Pickens
Pickens is looking like he may go down as one of the best receivers in the history of Georgia football after an incredible freshman season. In 2019, as a true freshman, Pickens was named to the Coaches’ Freshman All-SEC Team and was the co-winner of UGA’s Offensive Newcomer of the Year award. He played in all 14 games, earning his first start vs. Kentucky. Pickens ended the year with a great performance in the Sugar Bowl win over Baylor, where he had 12 catches for 175 yards and a touchdown. He finished the season with 49 catches for 727 yards, which were both team highs. He also led the Bulldogs in touchdown catches with eight.
