But he didn't do squat in the Orange Bowl.

Did you watch the clips?  Did you realize the source is a homer site?  In the clip where it shows 19 "chipping" him, he actually gets his hand on the back of Hutch's shoulder pad as he releases to his route without changing Hutch's trajectory or momentum.  McClendon blocks him clean.  A Heisman finalist should be beating McClendon on the regular.  Hutch was the better player, as he was backing him down.  But he couldn't shed the block and beat him.

As far as the excuse of quick passes and releases, if Stetson Bennett can execute that kind of game plan, what do you think NFL qbs will do?  I love me some Stetson Bennett, but I'm under no illusions as to his NFL potential.  What do you think Davis Mills or Zach Wilson or Tanneyhill will do?

I'm not saying he will be a bust.  I am saying that the bad game he had against UGA makes me reconsider my previous evaluation of him as the "no-brainer" pick at #1.  If he's our pick, he will be a Jag and my teal glasses will be firmly in place.
