Former Georgia Bulldog wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr. is no stranger to big games. Hardman scored both of UGA’s touchdowns against Alabama in the 2018 National Championship Game.
Hardman’s next big game will be for the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game against the Tennessee Titans. Hardman’s rookie season has been a good one for the Chiefs, who came-back from down 24-0 to the Houston Texans last week. Hardman had an explosive kick return to spark the Kansas City comeback.
Georgia Tech’s Barstool couldn’t resist a chance to poke for at Georgia in big games. At least Georgia plays in big games unlike the Yellow Jackets. In fact, Georgia Tech was outscored 104-21 in their “big games” this season against Clemson and Georgia. The Barstool Georgia Tech Tweet prompted this response from Mecole Hardman:
Lol I know GT don’t know what a big game feel like 😂 y’all just now know what a normal offense feel like 🤷🏾♂️ https://t.co/6FCkNkvv8s

The AFC is guaranteed one representative from the University of Georgia in the Super Bowl: either Mecole Hardman or Titans center Ben Jones, who has been a key part of their historic running attack.
