Will Chubb Play Against UNC? 'It's Pointing in That Direction'

Georgia Bulldogs head coach Kirby Smart made an appearance on 680 The Fan today to talk a little football.

In the interview on "The Front Row," which you can listen to here, Smart said the odds seem to be improving for Nick Chubb to play in the season opener against UNC.

"I hope so," Smart said. "It's pointing in that direction."
