If you look at Georgia's schedule, then it probably does not look quite as good as Alabama's. Losing by 28 points sticks out. Only beating Tennessee and Kentucky by a score also stands out. The Cats and Vols were destroyed by everyone all year. The Florida win was obviously a big one regardless of how people want to analyze the game.

Alabama blew everyone out except LSU and the Aggies. But losing a game at home and losing the turnover battle 3-0 shows that this team can be beaten.

If Alabama can be beaten at home, then Georgia has the talent to win in the dome. Georgia is 2 wins from a trip to Miami. They've got a good football team even if they don't always win pretty.

I'm trying to figure out how playing an easy schedule and having only one formidable opponent translates to being an unworthy team. Arky logic?

weak schedule, how can you still say that, after beating UF when they were ranked #2 in the BCS. then we still have to play in the SECCG. certainly not an easy schedule, while were talking about schedules, sure we didn't play aTm, AL or LSU from the west, but AL didn't play Fl, SCe or UGA from the east.



You have 7 SEC wins. Here are 6 of them.

Missouri
Vandy
Tenner
Kentucky
Old Miss
Auburn


Now are you really going to sit there and tell me you didn't play a pretty weak schedule?

Rumor is they're breaking out something special to wear. Stay tuned.

Should UGA have played Arky to improve the strength of schedule? Don be so butthurt, just because your whole team left with a neck brace.

Yes ND CAN beat UGA. Vegas has already said that every SEC team in the top ten would be favored in the BCSNCG. DWI

Alabama has a shitty secondary


This is really being overstated. Alabama's secondary is not elite, but it definitely isn't shitty. They probably have one of the top 20 secondaries in the country.

Who do you think alabama has beaten? Damn, you're dumb. Everyone knows UGA has a relatively weak SEC schedule but the team you are comparing them too was equally as bad.

I hear it will be Ga Tech. UGA already found out that Blackouts don't work against Bama.

They played MI, who would probably go 6 for 6, and at the absolute WORST, 5 and 6 with the teams above.

UGA should want this game more. They havne't sniffed a national championship in 30 years. BAMA's won 2 of the last 3 National Championships.

However, Saban's BAMA teams have always played well in SECCG and BCS Championship games. UGA hasn't faired that well under Richt in big games lately.

BAMA's secondary isn't as good as it has been. But it's as good as UGA's. It's not shitty by any means. I'm not sure it will really matter. UGA fans need to point to one big game where Murray has exploited a secondary.

Look gents, ALA does not have a shitty secondary, and even if they did, someone tell me what is so special about Murray? Seems to me he's regressed over his career. NFL? Laughable. He's Danny Wuerfel/guy from Boise State Part Deux. He doesn't have an NFL arm. Fact of the matter is, neither does McCarron. (he'll make an NFL roster but doesn't have the big arm to be a star.) I say that but will also state that I don't measure the worth of a college QB by his NFL potential -- Tebow was a great college QB obviously. LSU had a little guy named Herb Tyler in the late 90s that was an excellent college QB, but no pro potential. McCarron is an outstanding college QB; Murray ... I watched that game ag. Florida and he looked horrible. (as he did last yr against LSU, who would also absolutely skullf*ck the Pups this yr.)

So because they played Michigan UGA's schedule is a joke and bama's is legit? Wow.

I would say UGA is 1-1 against decent teams, Bammer i would put at 4-1.
