Stetson Bennett IV gets incredibly emotional on the sideline after Georgia seals national title

Stetson Bennett IV was a former walk-on at Georgia, never given much of a chance to succeed.

By now, you know he has led the Bulldogs to a national championship, leading the Dawgs to a 33-18 victory over Alabama on Monday night in Indianapolis.

As you might expect, Bennett was incredibly emotional after the Georgia defense snagged the game-clinching pick-6. Here’s a look at his reaction on the sidelines:
