The Red and Black

"You're supposed to have fun, that's why a lot of guys play. It's the only reason why we play - it's fun. That's why we do it. And to have fun on the sidelines is great," said Owens.

So who on the team can "crank dat Robocop" the best?

"I'd have to say Jason Johnson, and also Ricardo Crawford," Owens said.

"I'd probably say Jason Johnson," Brown said.

"I think a lot of guys can do it well, but Jason Johnson does it really well," Moreno said. "He gets my pick."

An overwhelming favorite, Jason Johnson said the reason he can do the "Soulja Boy" the best is because dancing is something he's always loved.

"I've always been the 'dancer,'" Johnson said. "I've always liked to dance, so that's the way I get into the game. I guess you could say it's my first love. I'm not a professional dancer by any means, but I just like to dance - I like to entertain. Whenever some music comes on, everybody looks at me to be the first one dancing."

While the players look to Jason Johnson when "Soulja Boy" plays right now, the focus may shift to someone else as a new "black jersey-esque" rumor has begun.

"I've heard through the grapevine that Coach Richt's wife is teaching him how to do it," Owens said. "So I think he already knows how to do it, but I'm not sure. I think there's a 50 percent chance that he knows how to do it."

Brown disagrees.

"That's a big rumor, but I can promise you he's not going to do that dance - or any dance for that matter," Brown said.

However, Jason Johnson said Richt's wife has come to him for advice.

"I've been talking to Mrs. Richt, and she asked me how to learn how to do it," Johnson said. "I'm sure if I help teach her how to do it, then behind the scenes, he's probably going to learn it. We're going to try to work that one out."
