Most if not all UGA fans love SBIV. Even before Monday night. Many just didn't think he could outplay Bryce Young and beat AL based on his previous 2 attempts. And they might have been right. Something happened that broke the UGA curse. Maybe some of the Braves magic spilled over? IF SBIV does not fall on his own fumble on his 1st run or he loses his bobbled snap under center at the 1 yard line this game could have ended very differently. But the game killing demons were averted, UGA hung in until the 4th Q then UGA/SBIV made plays and the young AL DB/WR's didn't. Game over.
Thank you for sharing this. I'd be lying if I said I was always 100% behind Stetson starting, or if I said I never doubted he'd lead the Dawgs to a national championship, but he won me over with the Arkansas game last year, and I've always believed in his football acumen and leadership. I can't imagine the pressure players go through today, and the tears are understandable to say the least. I was in tears watching those final moments as well for him, and for all of Dawg Nation. I hope Stetson is considering coming back at least. It has been a great joy to watch him play and lead this team.

I really love Stet as a Dawg. He’s from a rural area in Ga. much like where I’m from. I Wanted him to win. But I must confess I had the Go With Stet but IF he can’t get it done give JT a try theme. After Stet became the solid starter I was Always fine with that. But I held on to the insurance policy of Well IF he can’t get it done let’s at least try JT. I was Totally Wrong !! Way to go Stetson !! You ARE The Man as far as I’m concerned !! As long as Kirby is good with you I’M good with you Period from here on !!
Oh, please. So overdramatical. I'm sorry that he wasn't born a superstar. I'm sorry that he wasn't 4 inches taller with a canon of an arm. I'm sorry if it's been a tough year reading comments. Well, you know what? I'm sure that Bryce Young (voted the BEST player in college football) is getting crap from his fans. That's life. We're human.
So, are you now going to do Beck's story? He got 23 pass attempts all year long while Bennett was out there in blowout games and you know he's gone. Shouldn't we feel sorry for him? Or how about JT Daniels? You know, the guy who had earned the starting role and then wasn't give another chance to reclaim it after his injury? He could've been a serious NFL draft pick, but now has to decide whether it's even worth it for him to stay or not. Is that fair? Or how about the story where Vandagriff leaves when Bennett assumes the starting role and Smart doesn't give another player a realistic chance.
Lets cut through the drama here. Bennett stats show that he did quite well. Did he get the respect he had earned? Maybe, maybe not. Up until Michigan we hadn't really beaten a team that finished the year with a lot of respect and a great ranking. Bennett played fantastic in the Michigan game and earned the Offensive MVP. Is that not enough "respect"? He also was awarded the same award for the NC game even though he wasn't the reason for our victory.
The REAL reason fans are upset is that we had blowouts ALL year and Bennett would often play for 60 mins. Vandagriff threw ONE PASS. One freaking pass all year. We couldn't get him to play more than that? We couldn't give JT a chance to show off his arm? Every other position has players rotating in and out. In an average game, we'd have 12 different people catch the ball. Why can only 1 person be allowed to throw.
Look, Bennett will ALWAYS be the only QB that played in the 2022 Championship Game for us. That's his legacy. But that doesn't mean that we get to be happy when the QBs start transferring.
I haven’t talked to a single Dawg fan since Monday night who’s upset about anything. Enjoy the Natty and let Kirby and his staff handle the players and the positions.
Here is a thought for all the Bennett Bashers: If our defense had shown up in the 2 previous games and held Bama to 18 points then a Bennett led UGa would have won all 3 Bama games by a TD or more. Go Dawgs!!!
Take the win, Stet. You have the chance to do what very few athletes have the chance to do; go out on top. This championship is the absolute APEX of a Georgia football experience. Thanks for all you have done. You are now a living legend. Take the win.
We just won the national championship 3 days ago. Maybe take a break from questioning the coaching?
