Bennett helped guide the Jaguars to a school-record 542 yards of total offense last weekend in their victory over Henderson (Ark.) State, completing 20-of-26 passes for 280 yards — that was the most a USA player has posted through the air in 16 all-time contests.  While he did not throw for a touchdown for the first time in three games, the freshman did reach the end zone twice with a pair of one-yard sneaks in the second half  to help hold off the Reddies.  Bennett led the Jags on two second-half touchdown drives covering 80-plus yards as they held the ball for a school record 37 minutes and 43 seconds.
