Sophomore, running back
Why he's No. 2: As a freshman, Moreno rushed for 1,334 yards and 14 touchdowns on 248 carries. It was the second-highest rushing total for a freshman in Georgia history, behind Heisman Trophy icon back Herschel Walker.
Key number: 5.4. The number of yards per carry Moreno gained as a freshman, second-highest in the SEC for backs that carried the ball at least 200 times in a season. Arkansas' Darren McFadden was first at 5.6 yards per carry.
Fun fact: Nicknamed "Special K", Moreno filmed a commercial with Walker between the hedges at Sanford Stadium that aired before Georgia's Sugar Bowl rout against Hawaii.
