Nick Chubb rushing the football for the Georgia Bulldogs is always must see television. Since taking over as the starting tailback for UGA in last year’s Missouri game, Chubb has rushed for at least 100 yards in the last 10 games. Look for that trend to continue in perpetuity.

It’s a night game in the Classic City against a huge division rival that has had our number for the last decade or so. I trust Offensive Coordinator Brian Schottenheimer to run the darn ball early and often against the Gamecocks tomorrow night.

I see Nick Chubb having around 20 carries against USC in this one, maybe just in the high teens. He will have a another 100 yard rushing performance and could have his first Heisman moment of 2015.

Nick enters Week 3 as the favorite for the award, but will again have to have another strong performance to stay in the top spot entering Week 4. Chubb should rush for 150 yards and 2 touchdowns in this one, the first being a 20+ yarder that gets us out of our seats in the 1st Quarter. His second touchdown will be of the 5 yard variety in the middle part of the 3rd Quarter to put this game out of reach for USC.
