Additionally, the Associated Press and the SEC’s coaches chose Smith as a first-teamer on the 2022 All-SEC squad. His performance did not go unnoticed at the national level as Smith was named a first-team All-American by the AFCA, the Associated Press, the FWAA, USA Today Sports, and Walter Camp. Smith closed out his Georgia career with three tackles and a forced fumble in the Bulldogs’ national title game victory over TCU. With the season now in the books, Smith had 61 tackles, 5 tackles for loss, 5 pass breakups, 3 interceptions, and 1 sack. 1 defensive back by CBSSports. Smith has been a trusted veteran on the backside of the Bulldogs’ defense throughout the 2022 season.
His 2.27 percent interception percentage is third best in program history, behind David Greene (2.22 percent in 1,440 attempts), and Jake Fromm (1.83%). His career of 9.13 yards per attempt is the best in program history.
Bennett's career completion percentage of 64.9 is second-best among Georgia quarterbacks with 300 attempts or more, behind only Hutson Mason (65%). He is also third all-time in touchdowns responsible for, with 80. He is fourth in program history with 8,958 yards accounted for. He is fifth in program history in career touchdown passes (66), finishing one behind Eric Zeier. With 8,428 career passing yards, Bennett ends his collegiate career fourth in program history. Bennett had just over 10 more attempts per game in 2022 than he did in 2021, and his completion percentage stands as the best of his collegiate career. That decision proved worthwhile for the former walk-on, who completed 68.1% of his pass attempts for 3,823 yards with 23 touchdowns and 7 interceptions while also rushing for 8 additional scores in Georgia’s first 14 games.
Bennett decided to use his last year of NCAA eligibility and once again play for the Bulldogs in 2022. Back in the first quarter, Bennett passed Aaron Murray’s program record for passing yards in a season (3,893 set in 2012). Bennett surpassed 177 passing yards in the first half against the Horned Frogs, which made the super senior the first Georgia quarterback to ever surpass 4,000 yards in a season. He would earn offensive game MVP in the game, giving him the honor in all four CFP games he played in. In Georgia's 65-7 dismantling of TCU in the College Football Playoff title game, Bennett would complete 18-of-25 passes for 304 yards, four touchdowns, and no interceptions in the game, rushing three times for 39 yards and two touchdowns. 12 among quarterbacks by CBSSports.īennett just wrapped up the best season and two-season stretch by any signal caller in program history, leading the Dawgs to back-to-back National Championships while becoming the first player to surpass 4,000 passing yards in a single season.
