The first exciting play of the afternoon Saturday in many ways says a lot about spring football.
As Jeremiah Holloman looked in the pass from Jake Fromm, Eric Stokes made a break on the play, stripped the football from Holloman and returned it 39 yards for a touchdown.
That brought a big cheer from the 52,630 Bulldog faithful that braved the nasty weather to witness a glorified practice. (And, no, it was not a cryptic dig at Florida coach Dan Mullen.)
This time last year, no Georgia fans — or even the coaches, for that matter — were talking about Stokes.
