UGA has been quite consistent every since Mark Richt's 2nd season. There have been some ups/downs... specifically a bit down towards the final years of Richt, but the program really hasn't taken any drastic turns.



So LSU has finished in the teens every year but 1 the last 5 years, UGA is unranked 3 of the past 5, but UGA is the program who isn't making drastic turns.

LSU has actually been a model of consistency for the most part. 18 straight seasons with 8 wins, Finished the season ranked in 14 of the last 18 seasons.

The rationale used to determine which teams are "struggling" and which one's aren't based on "where they are today" is comical.

Georgia frequently has a down year in which we finish low or outside the Top 25:

#22 in 2001... #23 in 2006... NR in 2009... NR in 2010... NR in 2013... NR in 2014... NR in 2016.

So 7 times in the last 17 seasons we've finished #22 or lower or even outside the Top 25. Yet all up in between those down years we finished #3 in 2002... #2 in 2007... #5 in 2012.... #2 in 2017. And those are just the Top 5 finishes.... we also had another six seasons of finishing somewhere between #6 and #20.

So Georgia has been fairly consistent since Richt came to Georgia. Mostly good years with a handful of VERY GOOD years mixed in with a handful of down years.

LSU on the other hand is not seeing ups and downs. It went from up (2001-2012) to not nearly as good (2012-2017).

LSU's current state is far different than where your program was at under Saban and Miles. Far different.
