Florida defender says they’re prepared to ‘truck’ Holyfield, too

5 notable Georgia rushing performances in storied rivalry against Florida

Georgia running back Elijah Holyfield runs hard. He doesn’t try to juke or dance around defenders to get his yards, he’s just going to put his head down and bowl over you, as one LSU defender learned.

Florida linebacker Rayshad Jackson doesn’t plan on getting out of his way.

"Holyfield likes to truck people," Jackson told the media Monday ahead of the Gators' matchup against the Bulldogs Saturday in Jacksonville (3:30 p.m., CBS; News 95.5 and AM-750 WSB). "We're all capable of trucking him back."

After Holyfield’s performance in the loss at LSU, many have called for Holyfield to get more carries. Holyfield is averaging 7.51 yards per carry, the most by any running back in the SEC with at least 50 carries.
