Georgia quarterback Carson Beck waited his turn after backing former walk-on Stetson Bennett IV as he led the Dawgs to back-to-back National Championships in 2021 and 2022. After Bennett joined the Los Angeles Rams after being taken in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, Beck put together a strong season as a first-year starter in 2023, completing 302-of-417 passes for 3,941 yards, the most in the SEC and third-most in the country, with 24 touchdown passes and six interceptions. His 72.4 completion percentage was fifth-best in the country and smashed the single-season program record set by Stetson Bennett in 2022 (68.28%). Beck had the second-most passing yards in a single season at Georgia, just 186 yards behind Stetson Bennett (2022 - 15 games). His 167.9 passer rating for the 2023 season was fourth-best in program history, behind Bennett (176.69 - 2022), Murray (174.82 - 2012), and Jake Fromm (171.21 - 2018).
