Only 83 more days until Georgia football kicks-off versus Virginia in Atlanta
There are 74 days before return of college football and 83 days until Georgia kicks-off versus Virginia in Atlanta on Sept. 7.
Former Georgia tight end Jeb Blazevich played for the Bulldogs from 2014-2017, contributing heavily as a run-blocker and short yardage security blanket. In 54 games played, the Charlotte, North Carolina native caught 41 passes for 501 yards and three touchdowns. Blazevich was a pivotal leader of Georgia’s 2017 National Championship run.

Former Georgia tight end Jeb Blazevich gave us his edition of the Georgia football pick-up basketball starting five.
We asked Blazevich via Instagram who his five Dawgs would be in a pick-up hoops game and he gave us a slightly tweaked answer.
“I’d for sure have to say Jay Rome and Lorenzo Carter and after that I’d have no clue”
Blazevich didn’t give us a full starting five, but said Jay Rome and Lorenzo Carter are the best hoopers he’s seen during his time in Athens.
Blazevich also had a comment that I’m sure football players love, and basketball players not so much.
“I know talk around the student athletes was that our football players could beat the basketball team (in basketball).”
There have always been talks of Georgia football players being very good basketball players, and that would be a matchup that I think would sellout the Steg in 10 minutes.
