I had not realized how historically terrible UGA was in basketball.


Georgia fans are realistic. If we acted like Bama fans we'd point to our Final Four appearance and pretend it means far more than it does to try to inflate our all-time standing in the sport.

As I stated earlier, Georgia ranks around #11 all-time in basketball in the SEC... Bama is #7.

I'm sorry the vast majority of the bama fan base does not understand the concept of rationally measuring up your own team.

Your automatic placement of Alabama behind Tennessee when they are almost exactly identical except for the fact that Alabama leads Tennessee in head to head just shows that you have a clear purpose to your points.

Tennessee has the same amount of Elite 8s, less Sweet 16s and more overall appearances. Using your criteria Alabama has had better postseason success than them (more combined Sweet 16+Elite 8) and yet they are ranked ahead of Alabama. There is only one reason you would do that.

Head to Head lead in all-series minus Kentucky
2nd SEC Tournament Championships
3rd SEC Championships
3rd AP Top 25 Finishes
4th AP Top 10 Finishes
4th NCAAT Sweet 16 Appearances
4th Overall SEC W/L % (61.4%)
6th NCAAT Appearances

=

7th overall



Makes perfect sense
