Twitter reacts to Nick Chubb’s historic Belk Bowl performance
By Drew Laing
Published:
The true freshman running back from Cedartown, Ga., did it again.
Nick Chubb just keeps getting better for the Georgia Bulldogs and he saved his best for last with a 269-yard, two touchdown performance in Tuesday night’s Belk Bowl against the nation’s No. 2 ranked Louisville Cardinals’ run defense.
His 296 rushing yards was the most by a freshman in bowl history and he was deservingly named MVP of the Belk Bowl.
As Chubb racked up the yards, Twitter once again came through with some great reactions to the historic bowl game performance by a likely 2015 Heisman Trophy candidate.

Who are the early #Heisman favorites heading into 2015? I have to believe that Nick Chubb is (at very least) in that discussion. #UGA

Richt: "When Hutson went down, we went to plan B. Plan B was simpler: give it to Nick Chubb." #Dawgs #UGA

Really hope Nick Chubb can stay healthy the next two years. Just like Marcus Lattimore was as a freshman, Chubb is NFL-ready now.
