Georgia Football's Secret Weapon Heading into the 2025 College Football Season

Georgia football has a secret weapon heading into the 2025 college football season.

As Georgia Football continues to dominate headlines with their stacked offense and defense, there’s one player who could be an unseen asset and his name is Peyton Woodring. While the spotlight often falls on the flashier positions like Nate Frazier, Zachariah Branch, and Noah Thomas on offense, or CJ Allen, KJ Bolden, and Christian Miller on defense, it’s time to give some much needed attention to the man who will likely play a pivotal role in the upcoming 2025 season: the kicker, Peyton Woodring.

A Perfect Year: Setting the Standard

Woodring, a two-year starter from Lafayette, LA, has been an unassuming yet consistent performer for Georgia, and his numbers speak for themselves. This past season, he finished with a perfect record on extra points, converting all 48 of his attempts. That kind of accuracy, especially in high-pressure situations, is valuable. We all know that in the SEC, games can come down to a single score and that’s when having a reliable kicker becomes crucial. Woodring’s ability to remain steady under pressure, especially in tight contests, will be something Georgia fans can count on as they push toward a national title.

The Long Range Threat

It’s not just the extra points where Woodring shines; he also has an impressive field goal range. In Georgia’s Chick-fil-A Kickoff opener against Clemson, Woodring nailed a career-long 55-yard field goal. That’s a weapon in and of itself. In a conference like the SEC, where games can be tightly contested and field position can be critical, having a kicker who can confidently knock down long range field goals is a major asset. Woodring has proven he has the leg strength and accuracy to make those clutch kicks when the team needs him most.

Consistency You Can Rely On

Woodring’s field goal percentage this season was an outstanding 91.3%. That’s no fluke, especially in a league where high stakes games are the norm. The ability to rely on your kicker for crucial three pointers whether to extend a lead or close the gap can make or break a

season. For Georgia, Woodring has been as consistent as they come, making him an asset part of the team as they head into 2025.

A Potential Game Changer in 2025

Looking ahead to the 2025 season, Peyton Woodring will likely be one of the unsung heroes on this Georgia team. As the Bulldogs continue their quest to reclaim the championship and return to the Promised Land, Woodring’s consistent kicking could be the difference between winning and losing in some of the SEC’s most intense matchups. In a conference as competitive as the SEC, where every point counts, having a dependable kicker is more important than ever.

Whether it’s a last minute field goal to secure a victory, a clutch extra point to maintain a slim lead, or a long distance kick to give Georgia a cushion in a big game, Woodring is ready to rise to the occasion. As Georgia aims for another national championship in 2025, they may have one more weapon in their arsenal that’s not getting as much attention as it should but that’s about to change.

As the Bulldogs take the field, don't forget about the quiet kicker from Lafayette, LA — Peyton Woodring is ready to show the country that in a team full of stars, special teams are just as important.
