Last year he had some things to say about Georgia -- and it backfired. Walk back with me to last October when Gardner-Johnson said Georgia quarterback Jake Fromm can only throw simple passes. "Anybody can throw a slant," he said prior to the game. One Jake Fromm slant pass later, Gardner-Johnson was carried off the field with a shoulder injury.

Maybe Gardner-Johnson's words will come back to haunt him once again?
