Even when UGA went 41 years between natties, it was still only 20 years between SEC titles.

UT has blown past that with truly no end in sight.

19 more years to go, and we can match the LSU dry spell between 1958 and 2003.

I'm thinking 1998 Smokey has long since gone to that big dog house in the sky. And so has his son, and so has his grandson, and great-grandson and his great, great ............

You guys went from 1951-1998 between your 2 National Championships.

It’s the annual offseason natty. Renews every year. I’m surprised Nico’s face isn’t on it.

Yikes. It's this kind of little brother activity that has immediately resulted in UT taking over their former acronym when they joined the conference a couple of years ago. The real UT would never do something like this.

Actually it’s because most of Georgia has become a liberal quasi 3rd world country. Between the skyrocketing crime, the stagnant economy and the failing schools in most of Georgia I chose to practically give away my house and “retreat” to a safe, thriving, great place to raise a family, with wonderful schools.

I was happy in Georgia. I was in a great spot for fishing and hunting. I had enough piddle work between contracts to be well above the the standard of living in the area. But the natives started cooking meth and if I’m being honest I stayed almost 20 years too long believing that mess was normal and everywhere now. It’s not. You don’t have to life like that.

I guess it was solid stuff. They turned Dearing Ga into a manufacturing hub and distribution hub. They used Augusta to push that stuff all over the south east. I even had a couple folks I knew that ruined generations of families over it.
