Stetson Bennett Returns to College Football—Transfers to Alabama for Final Season
In a move no one saw coming, former Georgia Bulldogs quarterback Stetson Bennett has announced his return to college football and plans to play his final season with the Alabama Crimson Tide. Bennett, who led Georgia to back-to-back national championships, had declared for the NFL Draft but went undrafted. Now, he’s taking advantage of an extra year of eligibility due to the NCAA’s COVID-19 waiver.
Bennett’s decision to join Alabama has sent shockwaves through the SEC, with many fans accusing him of betraying Georgia by suiting up for their biggest rival. However, sources close to Bennett claim his choice was motivated by a desire to prove himself in a new environment and compete at the highest level.
For Alabama, the addition of Bennett is a surprising but potentially game-changing move. With questions lingering about the Crimson Tide’s quarterback situation, Bennett brings championship experience and leadership that could give Alabama the edge they need to reclaim the SEC crown.
Georgia fans, meanwhile, are left feeling stunned and betrayed. Many had hoped Bennett would end his career as a Bulldog legend, and his decision to join Alabama has cast a shadow over his legacy in Athens. The upcoming Georgia-Alabama matchup is now shaping up to be one of the most anticipated games in SEC history, with Bennett at the center of the drama.
