Buck Belue was not a perfect quarterback. But he was the perfect quarterback for Georgia.

Belue led the 1980 Bulldogs to a 12-0 record and a national championship.

Yes he handed the ball to star tailback Herschel Walker a lot but Belue was also a great leader, did not make many mistakes, could scramble for yards, and could throw the ball effectively when needed.

Watch the video above to look back at Belue's career at Georgia.
