Alabama game establishes Hearst as Bulldog threat
Freshman feeling confident
By GENE WILLIAMS
Sports Writer
As the Crimson Tide rolled away
Saturday after Georgia’s mirac
ulous 17-16 victory, the Bulldogs
found more than just a satisfying
victory' and renewed life in the SEC
title race.
Freshman tailback Garrison
Hearst rushed for 106 yards on 16
carries and solidly established
himself as the Bulldogs’ best tail
back not only with his totals, but
also with his clutch runs in the
fourth quarter.
“We made the plays when we
had to and we came up with the
plays when we had to,” Georgia
coach Ray Goff said. “Especially
Garrison.
On Georgia’s fourth-quarter
touchdown drive, the Bulldogs had
a third and two at the Alabama 24.
Hearst gained four for a First down
at the Tide 20. On the next play,
Hearst took a sweep down to the
four. Quarterback Preston Jones
smelled a Georgia upset at that
point, even with Georgia still tra
iling 16-6.
“When Garrison got the ball
down to the four, I knew we were
going to win," Jones said.
Then on the winning field goal
drive, with the ball resting on the
Alabama 47 yard-line, Hearst got
the ball on third and 12 and gained
16 for a first down which kept the
drive alive. According to Hearst,
the play was originally planned to
be a draw.
“The play was a draw. It was
clogged up the middle, but it was
open to the right,” Hearst said. “I
was just trying to get the First
down and everything just opened
up."
Although Hearst has played in
only three games and isn’t a

This Is my third game
now and I’m starting to
feel a little more
confident about what’s
going on. Earlier in the
Alabama game I was
kind of nervous, but by
the time the fourth
quarter came around I
was really confident.
starter, he has already become the
focal point in the Bulldog offensive
arsenal. In the past two games,
Hearst carried the ball 29 times for
178 yards, while Georgia as a team
rushed for 318 yards on 98 at
tempts, making Hearst account
able for over half the Bulldogs'
rushing yards on less than a third
of the carries.
“This is my third game now and
I’m starting to feel a little more
confident about what’s going on,”
Hearst said. “Earlier in the Ala
bama game I was kind of nervous,
but by the time the fourth quarter
came around I was really confi
dent.”
Nervous would be a good word to
use as Georgia lined up at the Ala
bama three-yard-line for a crucial
two-point conversion in the fourth-
quarter. The Crimson Tide had
blitzed the Bulldogs from the cor
ners all day - keying on shutting
down the Bulldog sweep. However,
offensive coordinator George
Haffner had a trick up his sleeve.
Preston Jones pitched left to
tailback Larry Ware. Typical
Georgia power sweep right?
Wrong! Ware pulled up around the
seven and lofted a duck to the end
zone where tight end Chris
Broom’s outstretched hands
snagged the pass, and snatched the
heart away from Alabama.
‘That play was on the back-
burner,” Haffner said. “It’s some
thing that we thought would work
against Alabama because they bite
so hard on the sweep. The players
went out there and executed it per
fectly.”
Said Ware, “I just had to calm
down (after the touchdown) and ex
ecute. Everybody did their job on
the play and that allowed me to
complete the pass.”
