How Stetson Bennett IV went from walk-on to Georgia's best chance to take down Alabama

BLACKSHEAR, Ga. -- When Stetson Bennett III moved his family from suburban Atlanta to southeast Georgia in the summer of 2004, he took his eldest son and namesake to see the small town's high school football stadium while they waited for moving trucks to arrive.

"Daddy, it's a little small," Stetson Bennett IV said.

"Yeah, but they'll have to make it bigger when you get here," his father told him.

Stetson Bennett IV was in the first grade.

While the stage might have seemed small in Brantley County back then, Bennett IV couldn't ask for a bigger one on Saturday night.
