how old are you?... I can remember some pretty sh*tty Goff and Donnan teams... what's the difference in 5 wins or 3 wins anyway? They both suck.

But the opportunity to watch your team win it all... no sustained level of above average can top that.

I'd have to call BS on UGA fans...they were so close back in December. Yeah...they'd take a 3 win season if that got the a title.

Ok, it's just me, singular. And like I said I go back and forth. I'd probably take the title but it depends on how I'm feeling on a certain day.

5-6...

23. My fanhood started around 1999 or so when I could REALLY understand what was going on. But like I said I go back and forth.

Remember that feeling back in early December...and then that feeling in early January.

It should have been your team...it could have been...so close!

I mean Mark Richt had a losing season in 2010... you wouldn't trade a couple more loses to mediocre teams for a win against bama in this last SECCG?... come on...

No as bad as Tubs got towards the end of his tenure we still had our edge as a program. I never once felt it was impossible to get the ship turned around. Chizik flat drove us square into the ground. I think the players have a little more drive. Malzahn is an actual football coach. He knows the game to the T much like Sumlin. Im not sure if Chizik just rose the coattails of his peers his entire career. I actually think he has a career outside of coaching. He has enough presence and personality to do other things while being active in college football. Overall Im glad for the championship but the writing was on the wall very quickly after we graduated 24 seniors and the two greatest players Auburn has ever seen.

Yep.

And if I knew it would end up the same way, I'd do it again.

Dude, the only reason the 3-alarm dumpster fire of 2008 wasn't as big as the 4-alarm dumpster fire of 2012 is because MSU was one-point worse than us in the worst SEC game ever played all-time and Tennessee had just dove into the well-established basket case deep-end of the pool that they have been swimming in every since.

I don't think Bo Jackson's graduation had anything to do with Chizik's fall.
