SI Article

quote:

The Georgia Bulldogs are national title bound for the second year in a row after defeating the Ohio State Buckeyes in the Peach Bowl thanks to a masterful come-from-behind performance in the fourth quarter.

Quarterback Stetson Bennett put on an absolute show during the final quarter of the game as he threw for 190 yards and two touchdowns, including the game's eventual game-winning touchdown with 58 seconds remaining.


quote:

It was one of the more impressive performances to date from Bennett and one that Georgia fans will surely never forget. That performance also put him just 70 yards away from having the most passing yards in a single season in Georgia program history.

Bennett's miraculous game against the Buckeyes proved that he not only belongs in the elite conversation of quarterbacks in college football but that he is more than capable of helping his team scrap their way back into a game during crunch time. It's. a type of performance that garners a lot of respect from people, but not everyone apparently.


quote:

"You know who I can’t stand though? Stetson Bennett. It was cute when he first got to play and played pretty good. And now the whole like I’m a walk-on, I’m a JUCO transfer, he’s like 28-3 as a starter at Georgia, or something like that.

I’m cheering hard against him. I want Georgia not to just lose the game I don’t want them to lose with Stetson Bennett throwing 4 touchdowns. I want Stetson Bennett to throw 4 picks and cost his team a championship. He’s such a punk."


quote:

The name Erik Ainge might sound familiar to Georgia fans, and that's because it should. He was also the same person who said "Playing between the hedges is overrated" and that Sanford Stadium is "not that loud" prior to Georgia's game against Tennessee this season.

What a POS, I can’t imagine Zeier or Murray or a past UGA QB berating a college player’s character like that.

I assume that this is derived from UT’s disappointment over Hooker not being invited to the Heisman ceremony.

In any case, Ainge calling Bennett a punk in the middle of rant that would seem immature if it came from an 8-year-old is pretty hilarious.

It's on par with some former player with a radio show crapping on their rival. I've heard similar from T-Bob Hebert. It's what gets you listeners in your market. Although T-Bob seems like a generally nice guy. I'd have a bit of Alabama PTSD if I were in his shoes.

Ainge should take more oxycontin and shut the frick up. Low rent, gutter trash of a human being.

Ainge is an embarrassment to Sports Talk radio and considering how low that bar is this is quite the accomplishment.

His reasoning is dumb as well. If he said “I hate Stetson because he’s gone in dry on my pathetic team 3 years in a row”, I could kind of understand it.

but instead he says this:

It seems like he’s implying that Stetson is the one always bringing up him being a walk-on. He literally said last week in an interview that he‘s tired of the whole “David vs Goliath” storyline that the media uses

Crapping on the team as a whole and calling out a player as a punk who has had no integrity issues actually seem very different to me.

Bennett is cocky I guess, but he's earned it. There have been several good QBs over the years that have been at least as cocky. He's doesn't seem like a bad sport or anything. Mostly people don't like him because he wins a lot. Comes with the territory.

I don't blame him. It was a nice story, but Bennett is well past being "the walk-on that made it."

Literally, who?

How bad does your life have to suck to emotionally invest in the hope of failure for an amateur athlete?

Dude. It's time to come out of mom's basement.

This reasoning is totally acceptable.

However, Ainge attempting to portray Stetson as a Baker Mayfield/Johnny Manziel punk is not only pathetic but flat out comical. Last time I checked he hadn't planted any flags at the 50 yard line or grabbed his balls while talking shite to an opposing sideline.
