With only 81 days left until the University of Georgia kicks off the 2016 football season in the Georgia Dome against the University of North Carolina, take a moment to Know Your Bulldogs.
The keeper of the No. 81 jersey in the Bulldogs locker room is senior wide receiver Reggie Davis. Coming off a very strong 2015 season in which Davis saw his roll increase, as both a wide receiver and a punt returner, fall of 2016 could very well be his moment to shine. Malcolm Mitchell is gone - now catching footballs from Tom Brady in New England - and there will be plenty of opportunity on the field for Davis.
Trivia: Reggie Davis accounts for the longest play from scrimmage in UGA football history, a 98-yard touchdown pass from Aaron Murray against North Texas back in 2013. The touchdown was also Murray's 100th career touchdown for the Bulldogs.
