Georgia QB Stetson Bennett IV is a two-time national champion in college football, which would put him in rare air with some all-time greats in the game.
But all anyone — including his coach Kirby Smart, jokingly of course — can talk about is his age.
Bennett walked on with Georgia all the way back in 2017, transferred to junior college in 2018, then transferred BACK to the Bulldogs to back up Jake Fromm and JT Daniels, before he led the team to the two titles.
And all of that means … he’s 25 years old. SB Nation put together a long list of the NFL QBs he’s older than.
So, of course Twitter was filled with memes and jokes:
So many jokes and memes

Stetson Bennett is a fantastic college football player but when you think about his current age comparisons it’s insane.
He is a year older than Tremaine Edmunds who was drafted in 2018 and just wrapped up his FIFTH NFL regular season. pic.twitter.com/s0TLJGBhtR

There’s a sitcom pilot to be written where 28 year old Stetson Bennett moves into the Smarts’ garage after a brief NFL stint “just until he figures things out.” Then it’ll run for eight seasons. https://t.co/TSAdwJRSFt
