I liked watching Georgia growing up and they have been pretty good over the years.
Why doesn't Georgia have more national titles with all of the in-state talent? Was high school football not that great on Georgia in the 50's, 60's, or 70s? Is it due to a bad run of coaching hires?

You left Ole Miss. off that list.

Because Alabama claimed them all except for 1.

They only got that title because of a once in a lifetime athlete fell in their laps

Wait, UGA claims 5, Ole Miss at least 2, TAMU claims 3... Bama claims 15 (including the most bogus one ever claimed, 1941)...
Auburn claims 2, one of the programs with integrity

We claim 1942, didn't get the votes in 1946, won it in 1980, lost in the national title game in 1982, didn't get the luck in 2002 or 2007, fell one pass short of mnc shot in 2012, and had our team strength decimated in 2013.

You obviously forgot all the moral superiority championships Georgia fans award to themselves

Why did it take Auburn, Tennessee and LSU so long to win their 2nd title?
Let's cut Georgia a little slack.
More importantly, since 1980 the SEC has 6 different teams who have won a national title.
Find another conference in your list with that many different champions since 1980.

Well if we wanted to be Bama or Georgia Tech, we'd claim 1927, 1942, 1946, 1968, and 1980
But, we only claim 1942 and 1980
And no talent was not anywhere near the level it is now nor did we have GOAT coaches walking through the door. It's not until the 2000's did we have great in state talent with a great coach.
The 90's were awful and we lost to Dan Marino in 1981 and Joe Paterno in 1982. We very easily could have gone on a three year run
Under Richt we just haven't been lucky enough or were shitting the bed

Because we play in a conference with more than two good teams.
