-Kirby has had 2 shots at saban, in the 2nd and 3rd years of his head coaching career. And looked like the far better team for 95% of both games.


I think the reason UGA lost was coaching. Kirby shite all over himself in both games.

quote:

-Gus has had 6 chances at saban, so of course he has more opportunities for wins


2 vs 0 wins, .333 winning percent vs .00. Paint it anyway you want.

-Gus's first win came on the back of one of the most miraculous plays cfb has ever seen (notice I didn't say lucky).


There was a reason Saban tried a 57 yard FG. He knew that his team was toast at that point. It wasn't miraculous or lucky.

quote:

His other win came when bama's defense (LB in particular) was extremely beat up and they still didn't know jalen hurts wasn't a good throwing QB yet.


Alibis and excuses. Bama had 2 drive the entire game. This is the same Hurts that tore UGA a new arse in the SECCG this year.

quote:

gus's losses are by an average of 17 PPG. Kirby's are an average of 5 PPG. Based on that, I would conclude that people perceive uga/kirby to be closer overall to bama and on a relatively equal playign field, whereas Gus on the other hand will get a hot team and squeak one out here and there while the other meetings they get pummelled.



Kirby is still losing at a rate of three games per year. He is doing that while playing in the East.

Yup. We blew our chances inside the 30 the entire 4th qtr and let Auburn get their offensive mojo going on their last drive after bottling them up pretty well for most of the 2nd half.

We were done, and we didnt have a reliable kicker for OT.
