running ability was off the charts. A key game for him was against Georgia. We could have won that game with a break or two, a turnover less, or better preparation for that last play call on defense by Georgia. They blitzed from the right side and caused the fumble that ended it. Ironically two years later the same blitz was called from the left side, which I could not believe we weren't ready for, and Book was forced to scramble and throw up a prayer at the end to Claypool who was held down trying to jump for it, which was clearly interference. We definitely should have beaten Georgia the year Book played.
