re: Is Stetson Bennett the most underrated sec player ever?

Stetson was throwing absolute piss missiles into extremely tight windows the entire game.

That throw to Bowers down the middle was an absolute lazer where he looked the safety off and threaded the needle. He’s super under appreciated as a QB. He made some great throws in these playoffs and still gets very little respect. It seems like the only teams that respect him are the ones that he’s beaten soundly.

I watched most of the game on the 4K SkyCam broadcast which was right behind the QB. Stetson was throwing absolute piss missiles into extremely tight windows the entire game.

He has done it from time to time before but last night he as doing it an entirely different level. I will openly admit I was worried about Stetson being QB1 at UGA and have worried about it at times this season but he just keeps going out on huge stages and doing what it takes to win. I was convinced UGA could not win a natty with Stetson, then he couldn't win 2, and finally that he had no future in the NFL. I am now of the opinion that he gets drafted, makes a roster and at worst sticks around 4 seasons if he doesn't manage to win a starting spot somewhere in the league...all he does is prove doubters wrong and win. It ain't beautiful, it is at subtle but what it always is is impressive...he just wins and makes doubters second guess themselves.

Do you think Bennet could have gotten LSU to Atlanta this year?

Because there's your answer as to whether he's underrated or overrated.

---

Yes. And to the CFP if he wanted to bad enough. The ceiling is known only to him and is based on what he wants, not what ANYONE thinks of him...he has proven this

You ain't alone. Any UGA fan who claims they were pro Bennett when Daniels went missing is most likely re-writing history. I vividly remember joking during the UAB game, when Bennett was carving up the Blazers, that the "Stetson for Heisman campaign was officially kicked off" and the folks in our section picking that mantra up and having a ball with it, with every pass someone would mention the "Stetson for Heisman campaign" as a joke. Lo and behold he was 3 folks away from making that joke come true on his way to back to back natty's. I was wrong and almost everyone not named Bennett was wrong.

You’re a damn genius dude

It’s beyond obvious the dude has no damn clue about a championship football program.

What some don’t realize is that a QB is much, much more than an arm. Their best asset is between their ears. SFBIV is a very, very smart QB.

Got damn. Only the biggest of all idiots can’t see that as amazing

Georgia does things different from a lot of big offensive teams.

1) we don't have a college football offensive system. This isn't 5-7 plays packaged over and over each week.
Because of that, the offense (and defense) tries to have a new identity each week.
Not every style is going to be a blowout.
However when it comes to December and January, the offense is gassed up with so many ways to beat an opponent, it is literally like flipping a switch and there isn't anything the opponent can do about it.

2 (and other teams do this as well... just not as often because they don't have the depth) UGA death marches a lot of opponents. There are a few exceptions. I don't expect that we will ever death march Vandy again after the shite they pulled in 2020. We aren't going to death March a coach who talks trash to the media (malzahn, mullen).
We don't death March an opponent going for it on 4th down or who burns timeouts when down by 4 scores.

The last 2 seasons, we death marched LSU, GT, Miss St, Tennessee, Kent St, South Carolina, Samford, Oregon, Michigan, GT, Charleston Southern, Tennessee, Missouri, Kentucky until Stoops was burning timeouts in the 4th quarter, Auburn, and UAB.

It isn't running up offensive snaps and consequently not running up offensive scores/stats.

Again, other teams do this (Tennessee is one). Just not at the frequency of UGA.
