So what does UGA have to do to have a "successful" season next year?

We are preseason top-10.
Returning the best RB in the country along with one of the best O-lines in the conference.
Defense should gel, should be much improved (imo).
We've got all of this buzz right now. What do we have to do to build on last season and keep building momentum next year?
Personally I think we almost have to win the East, and perhaps the SEC, to avoid the ole "that's just Georgia, never putting it all together" mantra.
If we do that, especially if we somehow claim a spot in the playoff, I anticipate a 3-4 year run that looks a lot like 80-83. If we don't, I can easily see us staying in the "good but not great" category until Richt retires.
Thoughts?

We should be playing in the conf championship.

Do? Do? Some things in life are actionable. Sports are passive. For Georgia to maintain a momentum, they need to train, train, train. They need to supercede all distractions to focus on the tasks in front of them. They need to be so confident in what they see in front of them, they never have a chance to question themselves. That happens in the film room. Sports is all preparation.

If we make it to tSECCG and lose badly I will be disappointed.
I want a NY6 bowl.

if you mean "successful" means playoff birth
QB has to win one or more games for us..not just "manage" the game like Mason who I think was indirectly responsible for 2 of the losses last year (moreso by the fact he couldn't stretch the field and wasn't really a threat to most SEC defenses)
Richt has got to stop his stupid gameday shite (squib kicks and lack of not spiking the ball, etc)
catch some lucky breaks in a couple of key games

People that are disappointed or mad that we don't win the SEC more often are stupid. We play in the best conference, with 2 OOC teams in P5(outside this year) every year. We've never finished top 2 in recruiting under Richt in the SeC. Balls bounce funny, calls go the wrong way, etc. We aren't gonna win every game by 50 and need some of the lucky things

Winning the East is a must. Georgia is better than any other East team this year. Next year may be the year UTk is back in contention and Florida has a decent offense. But this year is a failure without an East title. Winning the SEC and making the playoffs will be the badge of success and greatness, but without winning the East we have failed.

Play in and win one of the New Years Six games.

I can't really say what I'd think would make it a truly "successful" season, but we HAVE to win the east. Regardless of whatever else happens, it will not be successful at all if we aren't in atlanta.
After that...I guess it depends on what happens.

If we don't win the East, the season is a failure in my opinion.
Unless it's injuries. If we are starting walkons in several key positions for a few games, and only miss the East Title because of losing a tiebreaker, then I won't be pissed.
Disappointed, but not angry.
OK, now I'm going to read what everyone else said. I'm responding directly to OP at this point.

Not lose to inferior teams.

buy a phenom QB for 180K and fudge the grades of a retarded but dominant DT

Quite honestly, I would be happy beating Tech, AU, and UF. The rest will work itself out. 11-2 would be a great accomplishment leading into the Eason era.

as an outsider (I'm an LSU fan) I would think your fanbase should expect the same as us every year. SECG or bust, and not losing to big rivalries.
I know that my expectations are probably too high, but if we don't beat Bama and don't play in Atlanta, the season was not a success. And I have these expectations every year, with no excuses or exceptions.
