Included on that schedule e-v-e-r-y year has been Florida.

I don't think any Georgia fans are happy about this season's schedule. But the last 2 years have been pretty good "regular" season schedules.

Ought not be so hard on the Gayturds...they have been in a transitional phase for the entirety of their history except for a brief period of 12 or so years...UGA can only play the teams on their schedule and unfortunately for our SOS we are stuck playing West Gainesville Junior High (also know as the University of Florida) every year...

Allow me to retort:
UGA
2021: opponents averaged 7.4 wins (104 total wins from 14 opponents)
2022: opponents averaged 8 wins (122 total wins from 15 opponents)
Combined opponent average of 7.7 wins
Bama
2011: opponents averaged 7.45 wins (89 wins from 12 opponents)
2012: opponents averaged 6.9 wins (96 wins from 14 opponents)
Combined opponent average of 7.2 wins
Nebraska
1994: opponents averaged 6 wins (78 wins from 13 opponents)
1995: opponents averaged 6 wins(78 wins from 13 opponents)
Combined opponent average of 6 wins
So, there is some relevance between bowl eligibility as it correlates to opponent win totals

Y’all really really really really care about what other people say about Georgia don’t you?
Your entire fanbase wreaks of insecurity.

About the same schedule we played in 2021 and went 14-1 and won a natty. It'll be a step up from this season but we had Oklahoma this year and the SEC supposedly took the game away (I ain't buying it but that is the story). The only team that looks concerning is Alabama...Clemson is a known quantity to UGA and we own them. Texas is gonna Texas so that will only be interesting because of the school names involved...the difference between the two football programs is night and day....all of the rest of them are normal, every day wins for UGA...

There were but as Fiutak notes, Oklahoma’s repeat holds the dubious honor of only facing 4 teams in 2 years that finished with a winning record (including only 1 team in 1955 that had more than 4 wins)
Most if not all of Oklahoma's and Nebraska's storied history consists of them playing one team a year with a pulse, each other, and the winner going on to have a good season...

Mostly because our "rivals" can't get their shite together.
Although we did play Clemson in 2021- that was the best OOC opponent the SEC played in the regular season. Not bad, not bad.

What do you think fandom is? Literally all of us on this site care what others think about our program. It’s why we’re here.
Also, we want you to know you’re wrong about everything and force you to confront your wrongness. We do it because we care about you, not just our team. We are but teachers awash in a sea of ignoramuses and LSUStephens

We have a weak schedule.
Part of it is Georgia Tech's fault for being so limp wristed in football.
Part of it is being told by the league office to cancel the Oklahoma game.
But the bottom line is we have a weak schedule. No selective data set can make a convincing argument otherwise.
UGAs schedule is generally on par with the rest of the SEC...this season is an outlier because the marquis out of conference game we have been playing most seasons recently was cancelled for some inexplicable reason.
The number of bowl teams played to win a natty is easily UGAs record and may never be broken. UGA has played 4 bowl teams on the road to back to back natty's with a combined record of 49-8....of the 8 losses 4 came against UGA so those teams were 49-4 against teams other than UGA. It don't matter what the regular season record of UGAs opponents was UGA beat 4 of the best teams in the nation each of the last 2 seasons...and has lost one game in 2 years and none during the regular season. Yes, 2023 schedule looks weak right now but there is a pretty good shot that USC, UT, UK and Ole Miss all may turn out to be pretty good and UGAs schedule by end of year may not look as weak as it assuredly does in July...

How many games played by Nebraska or by each opponent?
Nebraska faced 13 teams in each season. Their opponents totaled 78 wins in both seasons, 6 wins per team faced.

No, how many games did each of their opponents play? I suspect less than the amount of games played by Georgia's opponents.

Tell me you have a very small pecker without telling me!!
Posted on 7/10/23 at 11:50 am to Mulkey Man
Probably a game or two less. But Nebraska’s 1995 schedule (for example) featured 7 teams that won 5 or less games so I don’t think it really matters how many they played; their schedule truly did suck

Scottie, why must we play charades? I have a very small pecker. There, wasn’t that easier?

I'm not disagreeing about Nebraska's schedule, just pointing out it is disingenuous to compare the total wins of the opponents when they played significiantly less games back then. For example, LSU played 14 games last season. 1995 Oklahoma played 11.

This year, yes. The past 2 years, no.
No national champion during the CFP era should ever have to apologize for their schedule. You automatically have to beat two different top 4 teams in two weeks at the end of the season to win. frick anybody who tries to talk about Georgia's schedule the last two years!!!
