Georgia football announces captains for Auburn game

Georgia football announced its captains for the UGA vs Auburn game on Saturday.

Georgia football takes on Auburn this Saturday in the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry, a game that the Bulldogs must win to keep their College Football Playoff hopes alive.

On Friday ahead of the big game, Georgia announced its captains for the matchup.

Wearing the patch on Saturday will be running back D’Andre Swift, quarterback Jake Fromm and safety J.R. Reed.

This season, these three have been three of the biggest keys to the success of the 8-1 Bulldogs.

Fromm has guided No. 4 ranked Georgia all season, throwing for 1,858 yards, completing  67% of his passes, tossing 13 touchdowns and giving up just three interceptions.

Swift is closing in on the 1,000 yard marker through nine games and is currently at 921, averaging 6.3 yards per carry.

And on the other side of the ball it’s been Reed who has come up with numerous big plays to help turn Georgia’s defense into arguably the best in college football.

They will all have their hands full playing on the road in a hostile environment this Saturday, though.
