Georgia QB Stetson Bennett capped a storybook college career with another national title and offensive MVP honors in the CFP title game.
Javon Bullard, another Georgia native, won defensive MVP honors.
"Champions of the whole damn world, man. Trying to see everybody for the last time. Hug everybody. Trying not to cry," Bennett said during an interview in which he constantly interrupted himself to receive kudos and pass out praise to others. Bennett said the team knew his legs would be a big part of Georgia's offense. And he scored twice off calls from offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Todd Monken.
"We knew my legs were going to be a part of it. Monk made two great calls … I didn't get touched on both ones, so I don't know."Originally a walk-on at Georgia, Bennett became the Bulldogs' starting quarterback early in the 2021 season when incumbent JT Daniels was sidelined with an oblique injury. Bennett never relinquished the starting role, leading Georgia to back-to-back national championships.
