Stetson Bennett scores one rushing touchdown

Joining in on the rushing attack this week will be Stetson Bennett. Georgia football fans know he can use his legs to get out of sticky situations, and this week, he gets into the endzone with a quarterback keeper.

Georgia needs to get creative like it did last week against Missouri and give Bennett the call because he can get in the endzone and score.

He is twitchy and someone who can really hurt a defense if he needs to. Regardless of what anyone thinks, Bennett is a playmaker, and his legs are one of his weapons of choice.

It would be great to see offensive coordinator Todd Monken call a quarterback keeper, not directly on the goal line, but definitely during one of their red zone trips to really make Tennessee look silly.

Bennett is up for the former walk-on award, and if he continues to play as he has, then it should be a lock for the Mailman.

Georgia doesn’t have to depend on the black and white offensive style — throw some color in there and keep Tennessee on its toes because they think they’ve got the defense to stop the Dawgs.

Tennessee has a tough defense, but this offensive line will need to man up and play grown man football this weekend, giving Bennett a big enough lane to get into the endzone for his first rushing touchdown of the year.

He could be a big contributor to the 200-plus yard prediction because while the Vols have a quarterback that can run the football, so does Georgia.
