  Draft Scout by Conference









  Stetson Bennett grimaced when told the news. The Atlanta Braves were knocked out of the Major League Baseball playoffs Saturday. After No. 1 Georgia romped to a 55-0 victory over Vanderbilt, the Bulldogs' veteran quarterback pointed to his favorite baseball team - the reigning World Series champions - as an example of how fleeting a title can be. "Are we gonna cash our chips in after so-and-so games, or are we gonna keep going, keep going, and know this isn't over until its over?" asked Bennett, whose team is seeking its second straight national championship. Unlike the Braves, the Bulldogs are still on track. Bennett threw for 289 yards and two touchdowns - his first scoring passes in nearly a month - and Georgia stamped its return to the No. 1 ranking with a blowout of the lowly Commodores.

Georgia (7-0, 4-0 Southeastern Conference) led 28-0 at halftime and shook off three straight weeks of rather lackluster performances. Those games provided a valuable lesson in what it takes to repeat as a champion. "It's tough," Bennett said. "We are not King Kong standing atop the Empire State Building. We've gotta work and execute each week, go out there and expect a dog fight until it's not one." Bennett was nearly perfect in the first half, completing 18 of 20 for 211 yards. Darnell Washington, the 6-foot-7 tight end who usually plays a supporting role to Brock Bowers, came up big with four catches for 78 yards, including a one-handed dazzler. "It's like throwing to the Pacific Ocean," Bennett quipped. Bennett hooked up with Kenny McIntosh on an 11-yard scoring play - the quarterback's first TD pass in four weeks - and followed with a 10-yard scoring toss to Dominick Blaylock. "It was good to get in the end zone," Bennett said. "But it was better to score 55." - Georgia/AP College Football
