Auburn could not manage to recruit top ten and fired their coach after winning a national championship.


There’s your first mistake. Last time I checked, #5 was in fact, top-ten.

Also ignoring Auburn played for the NC 3 years later with a "once in a generation" DB playing QB or that Auburn has an undefeated season just 6 years before the NC with a "once in a generation" Jason Campbell at QB.

Second mistake is rating 2 schools Auburn beat last year in your current rankings. You also include a school that has never won our division, despite the talent

When was the last time UGA won every game on their schedule?

I figured UGA finally popping their cherry would get them past Nick Fairley, but I guess that isn’t the case. It's a shame.

They’ve won the division 5 times and have been to 5 New Years 6/BCS bowls. I get that it’s not been anything to brag about but still better than most programs and definitely not a reason to get out kicked out of the big 6 lol. Compare that to the Vols for instance

Not sure what’s been holding Tennessee back. At first you’d think maybe it’s a recruiting issue with other teams emerging from being down, but Tennessee has recruited at a near elite, 10-15 range, for a while.

1950 Kentucky
1951 Tennessee
1952 Georgia Tech
1957 Auburn
1958 LSU
1960 Ole Miss
1961 Alabama

By all rights UK and Bear Bryant kicked off the first golden era of SEC football by taking down the Oklahoma Sooners in the Sugar Bowl. They owned the longest winning streak ever. Why so many people credit UT with the 1950 NC is beyond me.

I’m all for UGA trumpeting on here, they deserve it. But they need to stop with the blueblood talk.

They’re a long way from even the beginning of that conversation.

It’s the Big 2 now. Bama and UGA. The rest of y’all are fricked for the long foreseeable future.

Huh? I mean, we are rivals, but Auburn won a title in 2010 and played for another one in 2013. Pretty sure they are solidly in the Big 6.
Same for Florida.

I mean I get Tennessee since it has been since 1998, but then I would be arguing that Georgia should have been kicked out since it was 1980 for us.

I think the Big 6 is pretty solid. ALL the teams.

We are hardly a Blue Blood. We are a very solid program that has been good for huge stretches of time, but not even close to blue blood status.

Now, if we win another 6-7 titles in the next 10 years we could be adopted into the Blue Blood conversation.....but I think of Blue Bloods as historically great teams and not teams with recent success. And we also aren't going to win 6-7 titles in the next 10 years.

It is a Big 3


If you truly believe that, then it's really just a Big 1....
