With G-Day game looming, Smart updates QB battle

As is usually the case with a Georgia football spring game, a lot of eyes will be on the quarterback position.

For the 2023 installment of G-Day, there will be a true competition unfolding at the position. Carson Beck, Brock Vandagriff and Gunner Stockton are battling it out to replace Stetson Bennett.

Beck and Vandagriff have gotten most of the reps with the first-team, though Kirby Smart has always cautioned against ruling Stockton out. In a radio interview with The Steakhouse of 92.9 The Game, Smart gave an update on the state of the position entering Saturday’s spring game.

There are times where you can’t really evaluate a quarterback if he doesn’t have the right people around him. We’ve had a good run of luck in terms of not having injuries and having good numbers.
