If we draw a boundary that includes the state of Georgia and all bordering states (except North Carolina because basketball state yo), here's a list of the teams that have won national championships more recently than UGA:
UF
FSU
Miami
Georgia Tech
Alabama
Auburn
Clemson
Tennessee
The only P5 teams inside that boundary that have not won a championship more recently than UGA are Vandy and South Carolina.

The two on this list I take umbrage with are also the two oldest: Clemson and Tech.
Clemson won theirs the year after ours (1981) and haven't sniffed one since (whereas we at least played for the title in 1982 and have at least come close to making it in the past decade or so). Same goes for Tech whose last title was in 1990 and wasn't even undisputed; they share the title with Colorado after beating #19 Nebraska in the Citrus Bowl.
