Herschel Walker, who led Georgia to the 1980 national championship and won the 1982 Heisman Trophy, gushed over Georgia’s Nick Chubb and LSU’s Leonard Fournette during pregame of the SEC Network.
Chubb, whose Bulldogs host Alabama tonight, has rushed for 100 or more yards in 12 consecutive games.
Fournette entered Saturday night’s game against Eastern Michigan with 631 rushing yards. He’s on pace to challenge Walker’s SEC single-season record of 1,891 yards, set in 1981. Only two other SEC backs have surpassed 1,800 yards in a season.
