Benson spent two seasons with the ‘Noles after transferring in from Oregon and immediately became a star in Tallahassee. He nearly broke 1,000 yards in 2022, splitting reps with Treshaun Ward and Lawrance Toafili. Benson became a feature back for the 2023 ACC Championship Team, rushing for 905 yards and 14 scores on the ground, with another 227 through the air and a touchdown in the previous season.
