So... Here we are a day and a half later and finally the wheat is separating from the chaff. We have some less immediate reactions and there are some decent melts. I'm significantly less likely to be able to keep up and/or catch them all, so I'd like to rely on the good people here of the Rant to keep us informed...

If you notice a quality melt, please reply to this post with the following:

Link to post
Noteworthy quote depicting said melt

Nothing too difficult. If you want to put a rating of the melt quality, this might be more fun and spark up some additional debate amongst you all.

I'll start by throwing in:

jodeaux - LINK

quote:

Enjoy it while it lasts Bama, you're not getting the recruits anymore and Saban is old as hell. You won the game because the officials can't do their job properly. I truly feel sorry for you pathetic rednecks because once Saban goes will there be any other reason to be interested in your state or substandard school? UGA's time is here, we should have won. It's all going downhill for you


Whiznot - LINK

quote:

Alabama's championship is a joke... [links to "neutral observers"]




Additional submissions:

FlexDawg - Submitted by TigerTalker16

quote:

Fortunately for Bama a perfect storm arose in their favor in the second half. A combination of terrible officiating, conservative play calling from UGA, and Tua was just what they needed to make a come back. It took all 3 things to create a scenario for Bama to win. Without one of those they lose.

I can imagine some of hurt egos on this board at halftime. It must have felt pretty embarrassing to make your 42-10 type predictions only to get whooped...without help I might add.

Moral of the story is be humble at all times.
You don't have to worry about your pride being hurt from being an arrogant prick.









Update: After joint deliberation on defining melt status and a rating system, the following should probably be included:

quote:

A good melt doesn’t bow to facts. Not because melting can’t be factually based, but because melting is the expression of pure emotion so raw and authentic that the poster doesn’t consider or value judgement of their stability


Therefore, melt ratings should be done on a simple 1-10 scale... 10 being "full scale nuclear holocaust" level and 1 being "burned my tongue a little. need to wait on that... it just came out of the microwave" level.

I have to say. I am super impressed with your team's fans on this board. The melts did not come until today (at lunchtime no less).

I've always thought Georgia fans were pretty damn good but you guys have proven your metal. Good job!



As far as the format of this thread, you have my full support and undying loyalty.

Seriously, let it out. It's not healthy to keep it all bottled up.

I'm curious to see the melts, too.

Gotta say, this one stung but it wasn't as bad as the feeling of having my heart ripped out in the 2012 SECCG. I felt that sucker acutely for weeks.

When we rate the melts, are we rating the accuracy of the information of the melt or the quality of the whining in the melt?

Barners are very disappointed we didn’t melt hard. They melted harder leading up the game than we did after.

Worst Officials of All Time - fibonaccisquared
quote:

This is my favorite thing in the world. Alabama fans saying "it happens. it's part of the game" after spending the entire offseason bitching about pick plays after last year's finish on what was objectively a judgement call... rather than simple procedural penalties that had a dramatic impact on the game in their favor this year.  

I'm not here to bitch about the penalties, but this "on both sides" nonsense has got to stop. Just like UGA fans like OP need to "Harden the frick up" and deal with it... Alabama fans need to own that the officiating was unbalanced in their favor, and not by a small margin. As you said... it happens. Congrats on the win.

Pre Season Vegas O/U for UGA was 8.5 wins. Why Melt?

You ignorant Motherfricker. You don't even know what a melt is. A melt is when, after a loss, you start blaming your teams players, staff and school. I'm only pissed at big 10 refs. UGA performed.
