The absence of starting quarterback JT Daniels on Saturday did not stop Stetson Bennett from stepping up and leading the Georgia offense to an explosive offensive performance.
The criticism of a lack of deep shots in Georgia's 10-3 win over a top-five ranked Clemson Tigers team was quickly quieted by just the second play from scrimmage when Stetson dialed up a 73-yard touchdown pass to Jermaine Burton.
That play to Burton to open the game would be a quick summary of what was to come for the senior quarterback's game. Bennett would finish with over 288 yards and five touchdowns, completing 10 of his 12 passes.
Bennett found a rhythm early, taking shots downfield and taking care of the football when nothing was available. Bennett was helped by the emergence of true freshman Brock Bowers who saw a first-half explosion with 3 receptions, 107 yards, and two touchdowns receiving.
The performance of Bennett helped Georgia cruise to victory as the only touchdown given up by Georgia was an interception thrown by Carson Beck, which UAB returned for a score.
