Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett had quite the self-deprecating initial assessment of Saturday’s 14-3 win over Kentucky at Kroger Field in Lexington.
“I thought we played well except for me,” the redshirt junior said on a Zoom call.
Bennett completed 9 of 13 passes for 131 yards but was intercepted twice, which turned what was expected to be a relatively low scoring game to very low scoring. The 5-foot-11, 190-pounder quickly realized he was a bit harsh on himself but knows two interceptions again this week against Florida in Jacksonville would be more troublesome.
“I don’t think I played horrible, but those two passes were just bad,” the former walk-on said. “I’ve got to find the window on one, and then the second one was just unfortunate. I was actually trying to throw it away and didn’t throw it far enough.
“We’ve just got to score more points. We’ll be all right. We just need to have a good week of practice and play more disciplined next Saturday.”
