Mediocre defense



Funny that "mediocre" defense only gave up 211 total yards to USC (only 34 yards rushing and they still had Latt), 237 to UF, and 331 to bama (only 166 on the ground)

Uga gave up 392 yards to USC (230 on the ground) 266 to UF and 512 to bama with a whopping 350 on the ground.

Looks like theres only one mediocre defense and it aint LSU's.

Well, Florida of this year. But going back the past six years or so, I think Richt has won 3 of 21 games against top 25 opponents or something like that. They showed a graphic like that during the South Carolina massacre this year.

Consistently being in the top ten and consistently getting to the SEC CG is my definition of knocking on the door, or making a run, or whatever cliche` you feel most comfortable with.



Ah the the plight of mediocrity. UGA and Richt's trademark WE WERE CLOSE!

If that's your ctiteria for making a run at a national title then why did you discredit LSU's one by saying 5 yards from a title shot doesn't make them a title contender.

Les Miles just finished his eight regular season at LSU and in that timeframe he had six double digit win seasons. Win the bowl and the tigers will have six 11 win seasons under him. Since he has been at LSU the tigers are the ONLY SEC school to have at LEAST EIGHT wins a season. I would thing that the tigers have been in the BCSNC title hunt six times.

That stat is a little off, it depends on if you calculate it as the team ranked at the time or if the opponent finished ranked.

No excuse for losing to SC 3 years in a row, or losing our last two bowl games. But if you look at the other losses, you've got the most recent to Alabama, who will win the NC. Then you go back to loss to LSU who went to NC. Then you go back to Boise St who was supposed to be a cupcake, who the hell knew they were going to finish Top 5, grossly unprepared for that game. Then you go back to the loss against Auburn, who went on to win the NC, then you go back to the loss against FL, who went on to win the NC, etc etc.

I hate making excuses for losses, but it needs to be pointed out that the statistic that the media is throwing around about UGA's performance against ranked teams is misleading. Again, to reiterate, no excuses for the South Carolina losses.

Misleading stat. You takled about less than half of those 20+ losses. What happened in the other dozen or so?

Boise was nobody's cupcake back then.

What is murray's record as a starting QB VS ranked opponents?

Richt at UGA for 12 years, 8 of them with 10 or more wins, 6 of them winning the East and going to the SECCG four times. He's done so with 3 different DC's and a dozen recruiting classes, with all of our division opponents in all of the various stages of being up and down. Consistent winner. It feels good knowing at the start of every season there is a 50/50 chance of going to the SEC CG, and knowing there is a better than 50/50 chance the winner of that game will go to mNC, especially recently.


But, Les Miles is a good coach too. I don't dislike him, I think he's an amusing character.
Four or 5 years from now, he'll probably have a similar record to what Richt's is right now.

Don't know, don't care. His freshman year, UGA had no running game and no defense.

Sophomore year, better running game but not stellar, new DC and change to 3-4... transition pains.

It's not all about Murray. It's about 22 guys and the coaches. You want to blame UGA losses on Aaron Murray?

The two years prior to Stafford were the dark days of Richt's career at UGA and he really was on the hot seat. Replacing the DC and finally getting some good running backs and a good quarterback (Cox was alright, he got a bad rap, but Tereshinski flat out sucked) has turned the team around these last few seasons. However, all of those losses during those two years are counting in that popular "Last 22" stat that people like throwing around.

I wonder why rivals and the media don't just take his total record vs ranked teams, and why they don't hold it up to the other coach's records against ranked teams during their tenure. I suppose because it would look pretty good, otherwise they'd be talking about it.

Richt at UGA

2001 8-4
2006 9-4
2009 8-5
2010 6-7

Is that some of that new math they teach in georgia, 10 - 10 win seasons in 12 years?

SECCG appearences under Richt

2002
2003
2005
2011

Which two did I miss or is that some of that fuzzy math again?

My god. No excuses for the SC loses, but you have excuses ready for the other 15. The FACT is Richt does not win meaningful games more than 75% of the time.

Fans like you are the reason UGA administration will never demand more out of him.

Richt has given us 6 trips to the SEC CG in 12 years .... any time you are in that game, you are knocking on the door, or "making a run" so to speak. He's only won it twice, and both of those times UGA got screwed out of NC bid, but that's life


So how did UGA get screwed out of 2 NC bids. Both years that they won the SEC (2002 and 2005), the teams in the NC were undefeated. In 2005 UGA had two losses. So y'all never got screwed out of a NC bid. Also, LSU is only losing 1 starter out of 11 on offense.
