re: SEC head coaches whose teams have won a New Year's Six bowl game

quote:

---

5 of Kirby's 8 NY6 wins were in the playoffs, where the opponent had 1 or fewer losses and could have been a national champion had UGA lost instead of won.

In 2 of the other 3, UGA had more players sitting out than their opponent.

And in the one you pointed out, UGA didn't just win, they set a new record for the biggest bowl margin of victory ever, winning by 60 points. This surpassed the prior record which UGA set in the national championship game the year before winning by 58 points.

It kind of feels like a copout.

I don't believe BK is as good of a coach or recruiter as Kirby is.

I also don't believe that Notre Dame is as committed to winning in football as Georgia, Notre Dame has been coasting on their reputation for awhile now.
