Georgia's Sony Michel driven to prove he can carry Bulldogs' offense against Gators

GAINESVILLE — Sony Michel marches to his own beat.

Georgia's starting tailback is a part-time rapper under the alias, 2Stackz. Michel also was a big-time recruit out of Fort Lauderdale with scholarship offers from everywhere.

When he chose the Bulldogs, Michel knew for the first time he would have to share the football with the likes of Heisman hopeful Todd Gurley and fellow five-star prospect Nick Chubb.

But Michel believed in himself. The sophomore now stands between the No. 13 Florida Gators and the SEC East title when the rivals square off Saturday at Jacksonville's EverBank Field.
