Jake Bentley missed ‘wide-open’ receiver, still threw longest USC pass of the season

South Carolina quarterback Will Muschamp and Jake Bentley took slightly different approaches when breaking down the longest play of South Carolina’s season.

Muschamp talked about working off Deebo Samuel swinging into the flat, having Bryan Edwards and Kiel Pollard fake blocks and take off down field and Bentley having to hit the open guy. Muschamp, perhaps standing up for his quarterback, said Bentley hit the correct open guy.

Bentley wasn’t as sure.

“Actually, Kiel was wide open,” Bentley said. “I saw Bryan was out-running everyone. Just put it up to him and he made a great play,” Bentley said.
