Just when doubts were seeping in, Georgia QB Stetson Bennett proved us wrong again with his Peach Bowl performance.
Georgia was down and out on Saturday.
When it mattered most, when Georgia needed him most, when a shot at back-to-back national titles was on the line and the Bulldogs had to turn to a savior to come back from a 14-point deficit, Bennett's heroics led the Bulldogs back to the College Football Playoff finals for the second straight year. "When Stetson does something bad or something coach doesn't want him to do, our job is to lift him up, man," Smith said."Let him know that we're here for him."
"When we counted on him, he showed up," said senior Kearis Jackson, who had a 35-yard reception on the Bulldogs' final drive."He made those plays and made those throws in clutch situations. That's what it's all about. It's not about how you start it's about how you finish." No matter the result of the Jan. 9 championship game against TCU in Los Angeles, Bennett's legacy can't be tarnished. He was named the Peach Bowl MVP on Saturday , adding to his trophy case of legendary performances in last year's Orange Bowl, national title game and this season's SEC Championship game.
