Sunday marked the 35-year anniversary of Herschel Walker’s debut for UGA. The rest, as they say, is history.
Walker scored two touchdowns against Tennessee to lead the Bulldogs to a 16-15 victory. His first collegiate touchdown led legendary broadcaster, Larry Munson to utter the words “My God a freshman!”
Considered one of the greatest college football players of all time, it’s interesting to see how it all began for the 1982 Heisman Trophy winner.
