The Georgia Bulldogs capped off another dominant season in 2025, claiming their third SEC title in the last four years - a testament to the program’s staying power under Kirby Smart. And now, as postseason accolades roll in, Georgia’s top-tier talent is getting its due.
Pro Football Focus named three Bulldogs to its 2025 All-SEC team: wide receiver Zachariah Branch, left guard Micah Morris, and defensive tackle Christen Miller. Georgia tied with Texas for the most players on the list, underscoring just how deep and well-rounded this roster was.
Let’s break down what each of these standouts brought to the table this season - and why their recognition is more than just a nod; it’s a reflection of impact.
Zachariah Branch: A Game-Changer in Every Phase
Zachariah Branch didn’t just transfer into Georgia - he made himself indispensable. The USC transfer quickly became one of the Bulldogs’ most dynamic weapons, both as a receiver and a return specialist.
Through 13 games, Branch hauled in 73 catches for 744 yards and five touchdowns. He was a consistent chain-mover, a reliable target in the intermediate game, and a threat to break loose after the catch.
But what really sets Branch apart is his versatility. He added 205 kickoff return yards and 157 on punts, giving Georgia a legitimate field position weapon. Per PFF, Branch earned an 81.6 overall grade and an 82.2 grade in the passing game - numbers that back up what the eye test already told us: this guy made plays, and a lot of them.
In a season where Georgia’s offense had to navigate injuries and find new identities, Branch was a steadying force. He gave the Bulldogs a spark, whether it was on a third-and-seven slant or a punt return that flipped field position.
That FLEX spot on the All-SEC team? It fits him perfectly.
Micah Morris: The Anchor Up Front
It’s easy to overlook offensive linemen unless something goes wrong. But Micah Morris made sure things rarely did.
The redshirt senior started all 13 games at left guard for a Georgia offensive line that had to shuffle pieces due to injuries throughout the year. Through it all, Morris was the constant - and a high-performing one at that.
He earned a 71.2 overall grade from PFF, with an impressive 83.9 in pass protection. That’s the kind of number that tells you quarterbacks felt comfortable stepping up in the pocket. While his 66.2 run-blocking grade shows there's room for growth, Morris consistently held his own against some of the SEC’s toughest interior defenders.
Morris didn’t just survive in the trenches - he thrived. And in a conference where the battle up front often decides the outcome, his presence was a major reason Georgia’s offense stayed on schedule.
Christen Miller: The Run-Stuffing Enforcer
Georgia’s defensive front has long been a calling card of the program, and this year was no different. Christen Miller emerged as one of the key disruptors in the middle, bringing a physical edge that helped the Bulldogs consistently shut down opposing run games.
The redshirt junior started all 13 games and posted 20 tackles, including three for loss. He also added 1.5 sacks and a pair of quarterback hurries. But beyond the box score, Miller’s impact was felt in the way he clogged lanes and forced offenses to adjust.
PFF gave him an 82.2 overall grade - the highest of any Georgia defender who played more than two games. His 88.3 run defense grade is elite, and it speaks volumes about his ability to control the line of scrimmage. While his pass rush grade (69.9) was solid, and his tackling grade (42.0) leaves room for improvement, Miller’s primary job was to be a roadblock in the run game - and he delivered.
Georgia’s Presence Among the SEC’s Best
Georgia’s trio of All-SEC selections joins a loaded list of talent from across the conference. From Diego Pavia at quarterback (Vanderbilt) to defensive standouts like Colin Simmons (Texas) and Zion Young (Missouri), the 2025 All-SEC team reads like a who’s who of the league’s top playmakers.
But Georgia’s showing - tying for the most selections with Texas - reinforces what we saw all season: this team wasn’t just talented, it was balanced. Offense, defense, special teams - the Bulldogs had high-level contributors across the board.
And with players like Branch, Morris, and Miller earning recognition not just for their stats, but for their consistency and impact, it’s clear why Georgia once again climbed to the top of the SEC mountain. This wasn’t a fluke. It was the product of elite talent, next-man-up mentality, and players who stepped into the spotlight when it mattered most.
