A "Throwback Dawg Day" feature published on October 30, 2026, looks back at college football history with a classic image of Georgia running back Herschel Walker diving over the Florida defense during a game in Jacksonville on November 6, 1982.

The photograph, credited to Tony Tomsic via Sports Illustrated/Getty Images, captures Walker in his prime as the Bulldogs faced the Gators. The piece is part of a series examining what did not exist before the 1990s.
