With the Nick Chubb and Sony Michel era ending, it's time for a new lead dog in UGA's backfield | Columbus Ledger-Enquirer

Georgia lost the best running back tandem in program history.

Yet due to the depth the Bulldogs have been able to acquire, it doesn’t appear they are in for a drop off in production in the backfield. Georgia has established itself as “RBU” over the years as many great running backs have come through the program.

In terms of statistics, no Georgia duo has put up what Nick Chubb (4,769 rushing yards) and Sony Michel (3,613) did over a four-year span. Chubb and Michel rank second and third, respectively, in all-time yards in program history. The only one who ranks better is Herschel Walker, who rolled up 5,259 yards in only three seasons.
