November 06, 2023 | Football
ATHENS, Ga. --- Georgia senior defensive lineman Nazir Stackhouse and true freshman place-kicker Peyton Woodring have earned Southeastern Conference weekly honors following Georgia's 30-21 win over No. 12 Missouri, according to a league announcement Monday.
Â
Stackhouse was named the SEC Co-Defensive Lineman of the Week for the second time in his career (Kentucky, 2022) while Woodring, a three-time Freshman of the Week, garnered SEC Co-Special Teams Player of the Week honors for the first time.
Â
Stackhouse split his honor with Ole Miss' Zxavian Harris and Woodring shared his award with Arkansas' Cam Little.
Â
This marks the eighth and ninth SEC weekly honors for the Bulldogs this season.  Junior center Sedrick Van Pran was named the SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week on Sept. 18 for Georgia's first weekly honor this season.  Junior linebacker Smael Mondon (Defensive Player) and freshman place-kicker Peyton Woodring (Freshman) earned the honors after the road win over Auburn.  Woodring was again named the league's Co-Freshman after the win over No. 20 Kentucky while junior quarterback Carson Beck was the SEC Co-Offensive Player of the Week.  Woodring won his third straight Freshman honor after the win at Vanderbilt.  Last week, junior WR Ladd McConkey garnered SEC Offensive Player of the Week honors for the first time after Georgia downed Florida.
Â
Stackhouse, a native of Stone Mountain, Ga., snagged his first career interception in the fourth quarter of Georgia's victory over the Tigers.  With the Tigers driving at midfield down just six points midway through the final period, Stackhouse grabbed Brady Cook's pass and took it 44 yards deep into Missouri territory before a penalty negated his return yardage.  He added a tackle and helped the Bulldogs collect three sacks.
Â
Woodring, a native of Lafayette, La., drilled all three of his field goals and was 3-for-3 on PATs.  After giving the Bulldogs' an early 3-0 edge with a 33 yarder, he had a pair of fourth quarter field goals to help lock down the victory.  Woodring's final field goal was a career-long 48 yarder to push the lead to nine points with less than four minutes left in the game.
Â
The No. 2 (CFP) Bulldogs (9-0, 6-0 SEC) play host on Dooley Field in Sanford Stadium to No. 10 Ole Miss (8-1, 5-1) on Saturday.  ESPN will televise the matchup at 7 p.m. ET.  ESPN College GameDay will also make its first trip to Athens this season.
