Kentucky Football: 3 takeaways from tough loss to Georgia
3. Jake Fromm is a natural-born leader
Jake Fromm is a few months older than I am as a sophomore in college. Watching him play and his poise is something I didn’t know people my age could posses, but there’s no question who the leader of this Georgia team is and it is Fromm. He faced some competition early in the season from 5-star recruit Justin Fields, but throughout most of the SEC slate, has proved that he is the guy in Athens.
Fromm has quietly been one of the most efficient quarterbacks in the SEC this season, throwing for 1,649 yards, 16 touchdowns and four interceptions coming into the ball game. He finished the game with 113 yards passing and a touchdown. Fromm doesn’t need to do much with the potent rushing attack the Bulldogs posses, but when his number is called, nine times out of ten, Fromm comes through and makes the big throw.
If the Bulldogs want to make a return trip to the College Football Playoff, they’ll do so on the right arm of their leader and their quarterback.
