The idea of Georgia as a team that comes close but cant quite get over the hump is overstated in my opinion.

Auburn has come closer to winning two more national championships in the last decade than Georgia has to winning one. Auburn went undefeated in 2004 and gave up the winning touchdown with 13 seconds left against Florida State last year. Georgia hasn't had an undefeated season since 1980 and never even made it to the BCS championship game

Those teams' circumstances have very little in common. You guys "made it" both those years. In 2004, three teams had a legitimate claim and you were simply left holding the short stick. In 2013, you just lost a close championship game. You still far exceeded all expectations. Georgia's problems are an entirely different matter. You guys seem to come out of nowhere (Cam in 2010, with Gus last year). Georgia gets hyped, gets close, wins some huge games, and then loses to someone they should have destroyed on paper. Then they often finish 10-2, win a bowl, come back the next year in the top 10, rinse and repeat. We have more in common with Georgia than Auburn does, but we made it over the hump a few times.

other than pointing out your team's two failures your post is full of baloney. I think uga is indeed a team that comes close but can't quite get over the hump. maybe they just haven't gotten the breaks; you know, like auburn got last year.
