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.

No but games against bad teams should be. Georgia has basically become Oklahoma without the national title in 2000.
