It's more of who Georgia loses to and how they lose the games. The thing that's so maddening with this team is how they can beat Missouri 34-0 in Columbia and turn around and get slaughtered by an awful Florida team. They destroy Clemson and lose to a far worse South Carolina team. Destroy Auburn, lose to GT (who did have a great season but talent wise should not be on the same field as UGA).

It's the consistent inconsistency of this team every freaking year that gets us so frustrated.

You seem to think that wins and losses should be perfectly predictable. That's never the case for any team. UGA averages 10 wins per year under Richt, and that has been very consistent. It has also been pretty consistent with how we recruit. We've beaten GT 12 of 14 and that's also consistent. But 100% is not going to happen, and the outliers are not going to always be when you expect.

Last year we had about a 3 loss team from the get go. The fact that the losses happened to USC, UF and GT wasn't some bolt out of the blue that indicates a huge coaching deficit. It could have been Arkansas, or Clemson, or Tennessee. But we were pretty much guaranteed to lose games because had talent issues at some important positions and serious depth/experience issues at some other, including RB where we expected to be rock solid. We started the year with a rag tag secondary and a QB who struggled to do much more than hand off and throw screens.
