Each time Mecole Hardman fields a punt, there’s a sudden gasp in the stadium crowd.
There’s always a chance of ending up in the end zone.
Hardman has only taken one punt return back for a touchdown for 70 yards against Middle Tennessee State on Sept. 15. But in regard to average yards per return, there’s none better as Georgia’s junior playmaker sits at 21.8.
Georgia readies for its SEC Championship bout with Alabama, and the last time Hardman got his chance against the Crimson Tide, he had 40 yards on three punt returns. His longest went for 20 yards.
