Nick Chubb joined some pretty elite company in the SEC on Saturday after rushing for 138 yards and 2 touchdowns on 16 carries in the Bulldogs’ 45-14 win over Vanderbilt

 
The senior running back for the University of Georgia broke the 4,000-yard career rushing barrier with that performance versus the Commodores. He joins eight other SEC tailbacks to have crossed the 4,000-yard threshold, and he comes in at No. 7 with 4,042 yards. Chubb has a chance to build upon that totals as Georgia has six more games on their regular-season schedule.

After the game, Head Coach Kirby Smart talked about Nick Chubb’s accomplishment”
 
 
“It’s pretty special when you talk about the company he (Nick Chubb) is keeping,” said Kirby Smart. “It says a lot about his personality and his determination to bounce back from the injury he had and still be ranked second on those lists. Nick will be the first one to tell you that he gives the credit to his offensive line.”
