Chris Low gives us his list of faces to chisel on a potential SEC Football Mount Rushmore.

It got me thinking about the faces that I’d put on a Georgia Football Mount Rushmore. So I got along with making my choices with the one caveat being that I reserved the final spot for a player in the modern era (1990-).

Herschel
The legendary phenom from Wrightsville, GA. He led Georgia to the national championship in 1980 and SEC titles in 1980, 1981 and 1982. An indisputable living legend, Herschel would be on the college football Mount Rushmore.

Frank Sinkwich
Sinkwich won the heisman trophy in 1942 and led the Bulldogs to victory in the 1943 Rose Bowl. He won the AP Number 1 athlete for 1942 over runner-up Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox, who just happened hit for the triple crown and win the batting title that year.

Fran Tarkenton
Tarkenton led the old Athens High School (now Clarke Central) Trojans to the state title in 1955 and led the Georgia Bulldogs to the SEC Championship in 1959. Minnesota Vikings head coach called Tarkenton “the greatest quarterback to ever play the game.”

David Pollack
Instrumental in bringing an SEC Title back to Athens in 2002, he won the SEC Player of the Year that same season. Known for his relentless drive, he not only played at a high level himself, he elevated everyone around him. In 2004 Pollack became the only Georgia player to win the Bednarik and Lombardi trophies.

Who would be on your Georgia Football Mout Rushmore? Same rule applies… one player from the modern era (1990-).
