Projecting UGA’s depth chart at running back

We project who will be Georgia’s top running back among a stacked backfield including Zamir White, Kendall Milton, James Cook, and more.

The Georgia Bulldogs return a stacked backfield for the 2021 college football season. In fact, Georgia will return its seven leading rushers from last season.

Zamir White led the team with 779 rushing yards in 2021. Additionally, James Cook was a matchup problem in the passing game. Cook finished with 225 receiving yards including a long touchdown reception against Alabama.

Overall, Georgia has a deep backfield once again. The Dawgs have depth and versatility at the position with each back bringing something different to the table. All five of Georgia’s top running backs are capable of handling a significant number of carries. Fortunately, offensive coordinator Todd Monken will rotate a lot of backs and will not have to rely on any one runner in particular.
