Anyone else think UGA is overrated headed into this season?

They are really getting the Nick Saban and Bama treatment now. Everyone just assumes they are really good every year just because. Their recruiting classes certainly suggest so as well.

With that being said, don't shoot the messenger, but i see UGA slipping and having multiple losses this year.

They benefited from a weak SEC last year and lose generational TE Brock Bowers and their most clutch veteran wideout, Mchonkey. No one here is acting like it's a big deal but those are huge huge losses.

Even with those two key weapons, Bama and Saban with one foot out the door, still beat this team last year despite starting a running back at QB.

Meanwhile Kirby is aging 5 years every season and the arrests are stock piling. All of the signs of a huge decline are there.

I think UGA drops three games this year including Tennessee.

They won two national championships with unlikely hero Stetson Bennett, another clutch generational player on offense and Bowers and Mchonkey.

2024 UGA is a completely different team than the ones that recently won it all.

Color me unimpressed. This UGA team will be all talent no heart.

Maybe it’s because, unlike the vols with their flukey 2022, we ARE really good every year.

We are really good every year. Our coach has an 85.5 winning percentage. We haven’t lost to a non Saban team in 3 years.

We will beat you by 3 TDs.

Depleted secondary, 4 new coaches and Bowers and McConkey gone on to the pros, they will take a step back this year. Clem has a good chance to take a W !!!

I think there's a very good chance they don't do well this year. Just looks like there's a lot of tension in the locker room as well brewing with all these arrests and Kirby 's constant constipated looking demeanor.

I really believe Stetson and Bowers were the heart and soul of those two national championship teams and people are giving Kirby too much credit.. He's a great coach, but nothing close to Saban. More like another Urban Meyer.

Agreed 100 percent. No one even talks about their secondary as well. I see a down year from that unit as well.

Not a shot. GA is the most talented team in college football. Ohio State may be the next most talented.

Can GA have trouble....maybe. If they do, I think it will be because of locker room issues. My money is on this not happening.

Returning and very talented QB. GA rotates multiple RBs even though I think Etienne is going to be a stud behind that line. WRs are talented, but again, the ball get spread around so much that no one will stand out. Oline is amongst the best in the country, as is the entire defense.

take off your orange glasses and see them for what they are....really good.

I see them and Ohio State as the two most talented rosters in the country but talent doesn't win championships alone. Of it did, Aggies would have more hardware.

They are really good because of their talent and depth, but do they still have the leadership needed for when the game is on the line to put the team on their back and win? I don't see one guy for UGA fitting that bill.

They will out talent and beat most teams on their schedule but will likely be in trouble when they get punched in the mouth and are in a dog fight.

Big sea change coming for the Dawgs not being able to exploit the East anymore. Texas will beat them for sure. QBs like Ewers are Kirby's nightmare. And he's already 0-1 against a much worse Texas team.

Maybe because we didn’t lose every single starter like your team did

If true, still 3-4 wins better than Tennessee's best.

Georgia looks good until they start losing. 13-1 ain't too shabby.
