No. 2 Georgia is favored against No. 4 Alabama in Tuscaloosa on Saturday night in our Top 10 Game of the Week
Jon Johnson Dothan native and current Oklahoma tight end Bauer Sharp has been hearing from friends back home this week with the game at Auburn approaching.
Sharp is the second leading receiver on the team by a long shot with 14 catches for 116 yards and one touchdown. The leading receiver is Deion Burks, who has 26 catches for 201 yards and the third leading receiver is Jaquaize Pettaway with three catches for 79 yards. He was also a team captain for the first game despite being one of the newcomers on this year’s squad, which is a telling sign of his leadership qualities.
Sharp has three siblings: Tyler, who is a junior on the football, basketball and baseball teams at Providence Christian, Lucy, 12, who plays basketball and volleyball at Providence Christian, and Anna Ryan, who is a freshman at Auburn.“We’re at Providence on Friday nights and then we get on a plane Saturday morning,” Jason said. “Sometimes we leave the house at 4:30 in the morning and drive to Panama City . Sometimes, if it’s an afternoon game, we can leave the house at 8:30 or 9.
“We kind of hit the jackpot there,” Jason said of being invited guests. “They’re great folks and we’re great friends with them now.” “It’s fun, but it’s still just surreal. Even when we’re there, you see your son out on the field playing with these guys who will be in the NFL next year.” “No, the story doesn’t make sense,” Jason said of his son’s quick rise. “Number one, it’s been a testament to the Lord’s favor on his life. That’s ultimately what it is.
