Why in the world would you be interested in that?
However, since we were talking about Bennett and Hooker, I will say that Bennett is 3 months older than Hooker. Google is your friend.

Are you under the impression that age somehow gives a player an advantage? Maybe Auburn should get older players? See? easy!

An injury cost him the Heisman, and provided Bennett a free trip to watch the Heisman in person.

The difference is Hendon earned his undergraduate degree in 2020, and was finishing his masters this summer. Because you know, college student athletes are expected to make progress towards a degree and stuff. Hooker is finishing up grads school while Bennett is a 7 year dropout.

If he had been able to do more than throw a pick, fumble in his own EZ and only muster one TD in a pretty big game in November, would've never had to worry about the injury keeping him out of NYC. Some times you gotta show up in the biggest of games. One guy did, the other didn't.

What kind of stupid question is this? Yes, age and experience gives players advantage within that timeframe.
But I think we’re all understanding Stetson is lazy as frick and never went to class, and he’s 26 without a degree.

There is absolutely no way he should have been eligible. It makes zero sense.

Because you, the massive vol homer, think heisman voters can’t resist a QB in a running offense who was the 2nd best qb on the field in their 2 losses.

I mean it's pretty obvious Hooker was a better candidate than Bennett.
No slight to Bennett, just the truth of the matter.

If only he was good enough to hang with Bennett and rattler on the field.

Well now you're moving the goalposts.
If we're just talking quarterback play in a vacuum, I'm taking Hooker over both Bennett and Rattler.

Voters were not fooled by uga killing clock in 2nd halves. You 2 were.
Is it a coincidence Bennett only attempted 1 combined 4th q pass in the vol and lsu victories? Imagine his stats if we needed him to play for 60.

Congrats? So what does that have to do with how old a player is? People on this board fixate on the strangest things. I mean, Hooker will be better prepared to do well if he fails in the NFL.
But I think Bennett will be ok if he fails with his contract and signing bonus. Bennett will make more money than you or I will working our lifetime, I would imagine. And, if Bennett does decide to finish his degree what difference does it make if he did it in 4-5 years or 5-6 years?
Again. You fixate on the strangest things. Maybe Stetson can give Hooker directions to New York.

Scheme matters, especially in college.
Hooker may have been the benefit of a system. Bennett could have just as easily done more (and he did a lot) in another system; Or, he could have been forgotten about on a team without talent overmatch in most contests.
Both were successful in CFB. It will be interesting to see how/if they develop in the Pros.

When is the last time an Auburn QB graduated from Auburn and went to the NFL? Or when was the last time an Auburn QB signed played and finished at Auburn?

Oh, look. Somebody didn't like what I said, so instead of saying where I was wrong decided to down vote, run, and hide.

Lol still melting about Bennett and mad about hooker not being good enough to get a Heisman invite.

Hooker only attempted 1 pass in the 4th quarter vs LSU as well.
Hooker had a worse overall team around him so he had to make more plays, he likely wins the Heisman if he doesn't get hurt.

Winning back to back nattys and watching the bodies of auburn fans who can’t type 1980 anymore pile up > caring about some kid who I’ll never meet and if he got a degree
