ATLANTA — Sedrick Van Pran had a simple yet appropriate response to the question: What’s it like to block Jalen Carter?Now, imagine trying to block the 6-foot-3, 300-pounder mauler with everything on the line, as it will be Saturday night in the Peach Bowl?It isn’t just Carter’s size, quickness or strength that makes him such a challenging matchup.
That’s bad news for Ohio State. Carter is a freak athlete. He played basketball in high school and not only can he still dunk, but also he can windmill jam. Georgia has used him as a blocking fullback on occasion in goal-line situations, taking advantage of his natural gifts. In the SEC Championship game, Carter picked up LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels with one arm and held up the No. 1 with the other until the whistle blew. The play went viral.
