Georgia Bulldogs running back Zamir “Zeus” White returned for another season at UGA for moments like this.
White and Georgia faced a short third down with a little over two minutes left in the game against Clemson on Saturday night.
Kirby Smart, Todd Monken, and the Georgia coaching staff placed their trust in the hands of the veteran ball carrier out of North Carolina. JT Daniels set a receiver in motion and then handed the football to Zeus, who did the rest.
Meeting a pair of Clemson Tigers in the hole did not faze #3, who got the better of both physical meetings:

Following the game, White must have really been feeling himself. The usually quiet and humble White took to Instagram to absolutely roast the Tigers, displaying a picture of him trucking the poor Clemson defensive player.
“If i wanted to play with kids I’ll have my own,” Zeus wrote, before signing his caption with a classic Z3 ⚡️

White’s first down did not end the game for the Bulldogs. Georgia had to run for another first down. When it mattered the most Georgia was able to run on Clemson’s defense and run out the clock.
Zamir White finished the game with 13 carries for 74 yards. His stats are incredible, but it is tough running against an elite Clemson defensive front.
