Georgia's Stetson Bennett goes from walk-on to legend with CFP National Championship against Bama

Posted Jan 13, 2022
The past five QBs to hoist the College Football Playoff trophy were Deshaun Watson, Trevor Lawrence, Tua Tagovailoa, Joe Burrow, and Mac Jones. They were all first-round NFL draft picks. Stetson Bennett's projections range from a late third-rounder to free-agent signee. But now he is the first quarterback to lead Georgia to a national title since 1981. (ESPN.com)
