And yet the UGA linemen werent drafted in 12 rounds.
So what?
Georgia played well as a team. Herschel Walker was a big part of that, but it's very difficult to say one player was solely responsible for a run like the one Georgia experienced from 1980-1983. They were a Top 5 football team the season after Walker won the Heisman and left for the USFL.

Yes. Like Bama, UGA had great defenses under Erk Russel. Erk should be in the college football hall of fame.
But in 1983, the leading rusher had 513 yards for the dawgs. Even a great team couldnt look anything like they did with Herschel.
It goes to show how much of the UGA success was on both #34 and Erk Russell.
