Crowknowsbest Richt v McGarity tension This year, Georgia was truly focused against Clemson, Missouri, and Auburn (especially) imo. That's 3 (about what you can expect). We didn't have the talent to get by in the other games.
I disagree with the talent....I' don't think anyone would suggest that South Carolina, Florida or GT is more talented than we were this year.
And I would agree that we were pretty focused in these games but had we when focused in just one more we may have been in the playoff. Florida and Sputh Carolina were both games we could have been less than focused on and simply survived....Tech is probably a better all around team than we were, especially from a coaching standpoint. Florida and USC both were games we could have been less than motivated for and still won with a few mistakes. We just made too dammed many mistaken were not even of the field for most of both games. Had we won either of thee two games we would have been inAtlanta and probably more competitive against GT with something to play for. Who knows what may have happenedthisyear had we merely shown up against the Gators......but we didn't and that is not a matter of facilities or talent.....it is coaching, period.

Again, not what I'm saying.

What you aren't realizing is that even the best coached teams have games where they struggle with less talented opponents. Bama lost to OM, should have lost to LSU, and struggled with Arkansas. Ohio St. lost to Va Tech and struggled with Penn St. Oregon lost to Arizona and struggled with Washington St. FSU struggled with numerous bad teams this year. The more talent you have though, the easier it is to overcome those games where you don't play up to the skill you have. You get more talent by spending more money on better coaches and better facilities. We don't do that to the same extent that teams like Alabama and Auburn do.
Also, saying GT is a much better all around team, especially from a coaching standpoint is laughable.
