Georgia redshirt freshman receiver Ladd McConkey has been named SEC Freshmen of the Week, snaring the top-ranked Bulldogs eighth weekly honor of the season.

McConkey had five catches for 134 yards and a touchdown in Georgia’s 34-10 road win over then No. 18 Auburn on Oct. 9. McConkey’s touchdown grab came on a career-long 60-yard pass that gave the Bulldogs a 24-3 lead late in the third quarter, according to GeorgiaDogs.com.
