Does UGA need the best defense in the country to win a title again?

Seems they couldn’t get it done until this was true. Thoughts?

You need a really good one, maybe not THE best. That goes for any team, not just UGA.

We couldn’t get it done without LSU luck in 2002 and 2007.

We couldn’t get it done without clutch qb play in 2017 and 2018.

We finally got both in 2021.

Could Miami get it done with our being the most corrupt, thug driven program in history?

With the rules favoring offenses like they do today, you better have a freaking ELITE level defense to even have a shot if your offense isn't top 10 or so.

No slight to UGA but it also took teams like Ohio State, Alabama, and Clemson being "down" for it to come together.

The team that won the NC has been #1 in the nation in scoring defense 3 of the last 5 years.

Uga had top 5 offense and defense last year. Hopefully we can sustain that championship level play on both sides.

They are still loaded on D; just a bit green in places. If they can get through the first 5 or 6 games without a loss they will have as good a chance as anybody, Bama included to win it all. I think Bama and maybe Ohio State are in their class. First game vs. Oregon will tell you a lot. They should win, but the new coach there was UGA's d coordinator for the last few years, and he knows them well.

UGA needs more than that. Hell, they couldn’t even win the SEC last season.

It's really strange that Kirby's teams have managed to get blown out at least once every single season he's been at UGA despite that stat.

No slight? Lol passive aggressive bullshite

What has Ohio State done? Maybe JUST MAYBE, UGA won because they were the best last year and the others lost because UGA is ‘UP’

The whole ‘Bama down’ pussy arse excuse is so fricking tired. Bama was in the CFP championship game. Down? weak

They would need to be top 5 on D with a top 10 rushing offense. They are still essentially a Greg McElroy led Bama team. They are playing with one hand tied behind their back with Bennett as QB.

You don't have to like the truth but that doesn't make it any less true.

Good luck with Cristobal and Feld. I hope you don’t suffer a bunch of injuries like Oregon did. We’re finally having a healthy normal camp.

An elite passing game would've scored points on Georgia, hence the SECCG.
