Jake Fromm shows in win over Florida why hes Georg

No. 7 Georgia entered Saturdays game against No. 9 Florida indesperate need of a win.Thats unusual for the defending SEC champion, especially considering it entered with a 6-1 record. But a demoralizing 20-point lo s to LSU two weeks earlier, Jackie Robinson Jersey coupled with Floridas 6-1 record heading into the matchup, demanded that Georgia play its best game to keep both its SEC East and College Football Playoff hopes alive.Similarly, Georgia needed quarterback Jake Fromm to overcome an underwhelming performance against the Tigers to lead it to victory in Jacksonville. Thankfully for the Bulldogs, he pa sed with flying colors.MORE: Fromm was calm, cool and collected in Georgias 36-17 win, completing 17 of 24 pa ses to seven different receivers for 240 yards and three touchdowns. He led the Bulldogs on seven scoring drives in all, including four in the second half. Those stats tell a compelling story, but they don't tell the full story. Fromm wasn't just efficient and productive against Florida: He made big plays, Chris Taylor Jersey too, and precisely when Georgia needed them.There was the 16-yard touchdown to Jeremiah Holloman on his second pa s of the day, which gave Georgia a 10-0 lead. There was the seven-play, 75-yard drive in which he completed 6 of 7 pa ses that led to a field goal with two seconds to spare at the end of the first half.And after Florida opened the third quarter by taking a 14-13 lead in just three plays the last one a spectacular touchdown throw by Feleipe Franks Fromm completed all three of his pa ses on the ensuing drive for 51 yards and a touchdown to help Georgia retake the lead.The effort was a far cry from Fromm's Andre Ethier Jersey performance against LSU, in which he completed 16 of 34 pa ses for 209 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions. It led some among the Georgia faithful to question why five-star freshman Justin Fields wasnt seeing the field more.To that, Georgia coach Kirby Smart said after Saturday's game: "We got two good quarterbacks, and we didnt get to play Justin Fields today, but (Fromm) played his butt off and everybody in the worlds second-gue sing him the whole time.""Weve MLB Los Angeles Dodgers got kids with character on this team and they played their heart out," he added. "I'm so proud of the way they played.MORE: In a year in which it seems the race to the Playoff will be determined by which team boasts better quarterback play, Smart shouldn't just be proud: He should be ecstatic. Remember, Fromm put together this performance against the Gators'sixth-ranked pa s defense. He took just one sack against the SEC's third-best pa s rush, which was averagingthree per game before Saturday.None of Georgias remaining opponents rank in the top 25 in the nation in pa sing defense, including a potential matchup with Alabama or LSU in the SEC championship game. If you're going to get in a high-scoring game, its best to do it against teams that have shown kinks in their pa s defense.With that said, who better to lead Georgia to a run at the SEC title and a Playoff berth than someone who has done it before?Better question: Who better Chase Utley Jersey to lead Georgia than someone who has shown an ability to overcome adversity?The answer to both questions, of course, is Fromm no matter how much second-gue sing hes subjected to.
