KEVIN BUTLER’S PLAYERS OF THE GAME<br />
Each week, Georgia and Chicago Bears Hall<br />
of Fame legend Kevin Butler picks his<br />
Players of the Game. A member of<br />
numerous Halls of Fame and holder<br />
of a slew of records, Butler cohosts<br />
DawgTalk on Georgia Football<br />
Saturdays and the famous<br />
Bulldog Brunch from the Hilltop<br />
Grille on Sundays. In this issue, KB<br />
does something he has never done<br />
before by naming all freshmen. —<br />
COMPILED BY JEFF DANTZLER<br />
FRESHMAN OFFENSIVE PLAYER<br />
Dillon Bell - The freshman receiver from Houston, Texas that<br />
stands 6-1, 210-pound had a great day against Vanderbilt. His<br />
season totals are 13 catches for 131 yards, but against the ’Dores<br />
Dillon had five receptions for 54 yards and a TD. Due to injuries,<br />
receiving might be the weakest position on the Georgia offense at<br />
this point in the season. However with the freshman Bell stepping<br />
up and giving Stetson another target that he can count on, that<br />
will be key going down the homestretch. When you look around<br />
the offense, a lot of freshmen are playing and this go-round Dillon<br />
Bell is my offensive freshman player of the game.<br />
FRESHMAN DEFENSIVE PLAYER<br />
Jalon Walker - My defensive player of the game versus<br />
Vanderbilt is a young freshman who is making a mark in the<br />
middle of a Tenacious D. Walker is a 6-2, 225-pound freshman<br />
out of Salisbury, North Carolina. He had a solid game against the<br />
Commodores with four tackles and two solo tackles. The freshman<br />
linebacker is making a name for himself in the middle of a defense<br />
that has housed two Butkus Award winners in recent years. His<br />
play as a freshman stands out at one of the toughest positions on<br />
any defense. He’s got his feet wet through seven games and now<br />
will step into the meat of the SEC schedule where his physical<br />
presence will be greatly appreciated by the Bulldog Nation. His<br />
performance through seven games and especially against the<br />
Commodores makes him my freshman Bulldog defensive player of<br />
the game.<br />
FRESHMAN SPECIAL TEAM PLAYER<br />
Brett Thorson - Once again I’m going down under and checking<br />
the box. I’m picking the thunder from down under. Brett Thorson,<br />
though he didn’t play a lot, was effective on his one punt for<br />
36 yards down the inside the 20. Brett has done exceptionally<br />
well filling in for one of the best punters in Georgia history, Jake<br />
Camarda, and doing a very effective job for the Bulldogs. He needs<br />
to stay sharp during this off week because his foot will play a key<br />
role in every game from here on out on the Bulldogs march for a<br />
second straight national championship. You cannot put too much<br />
value on putting a team inside their 20 with an aggressive bulldog<br />
defense coming on the field. The better Brett performs the better<br />
start our defense has to do what they do best, dominate opposing<br />
offenses. I know one thing is for sure – there is a big Bulldog Club<br />
down in Australia and it’s growing every day.<br />
