I realize that and it is fair. The point I was trying to get at is with having 2 OOC games per season over those 8 Seasons, I'm in no way giving UGA credit for the GT game because that's getting scheduled anyway, they didn't exactly overcome the fact that state only had 2 power 5 teams scheduled.
Really, other than the rivalry game, over that time UGA had a home and home with Clemtech and they started the season vs UNC last year. Not exactly lining up juggernauts themselves.

UGA ooc teams sans Tech,
OSU
ASU
CU
BSU(non power 5, but top team)
Clem x 2
UNC
Thats 6 games from p5 conferences and BSU, that doesnt include Tech. So they have played 14 games vs p5 opponents vs 2 for state.
ETA, feel kind of dirty sticking up for UGA here...

Playing Georgia Tech every single season produces an OOC schedule that is infinitely more difficult than Mississippi State's all on its own.
We don't have to schedule any other power programs if we don't want to, but unlike State we aren't looking for the "easy" way out.
2016- We played North Carolina
2014- We played #15 Clemson
2013- We played #8 Clemson
2011- We played #18 Boise State
2010- We played Colorado
2009- We played Oklahoma State AND Arizona State
Add those up along with Georgia Tech each year and it means we've played 14 Power OOC opponents during the regular season during the Mullen era.... that's 7x more than Mississippi State, and that doesn't include an extra game against a Top 20 Boise State team.
If there is one team in the SEC who goes above and beyond when it comes to OOC scheduling, its UGA.
