The Southeastern Conference has just released its list for week one players of the week. Two bulldogs were named to the list following a 30 – 6 win against Vanderbilt in Nashville.
Graduate senior kicker Rodrigo Blankenship went 3 for 3 on field goals, including a 50 yarder. Blankenship hit all his extra points, moving him to 3rd all-time in SEC history with 157 consecutive PATs made. He was named the SEC special teams player of the week.
Georgia offensive left tackle Andrew Thomas was also on the list, with the SEC naming him offensive lineman of the week. Thomas and the O-line was just about perfect this Saturday. Thomas received a grade of 92, helping push the Dawgs forward to get 325 rushing yards (149 yards from D’Andre Swift), and 481 total yards. Fromm also completed passes to eight different receivers and was not sacked once with the help from Thomas on his blind side.
Here is a look at the complete list. A great week one for the Bulldogs as they are back in Athens for week two in their home opener against Murray State.
