Putting the spotlight on this season's freshmen Bulldogs i iw Freshmen may play key role for Bulldogs in 2006 BY PETER STEINBAUER psteinbau@randb.com Life has changed for cornerback Asher Allen since coming to Georgia last spring. Waking up at 6 a.m. for morning study hall never happened last fall at Tucker High School. There wasn’t a pre-calculus class. And there wasn’t a detailed bus system to contend with. “I got on the (Athens) Transit bus,” he said. “I went to the mall. I ended up everywhere. I ended up every single place imaginable.” “It probably took a week or two to figure it all out — things like getting on an East-West if I need to go to East Campus.” Allen will find himself in another unfamiliar situation on Saturday afternoon, when Georgia plays Western Kentucky at 12:30 p.m. — an unfa miliar situation staged in front of 96,000 people to Sanford Stadium.
