As much as the IB is talked about as the best rivalry in college football, it seems odd that Auburn fans have openly cheered for Alabama to beat Georgia in the last two years.

really started hard in 2017. AU fans know that when uga breaks through and wins it all it will destroy the only talking point they have left over us. Absolutely pathetic watching AU fans honest to goodness celebrate bama winning a title that year.

After beating UGA twice with a back-up QB, does all the pre-season "we comin" comments even effect you?


Aubies have battered little brother syndrome. Can’t decide whether to dick ride UGA or Bama.

Do 41 point victories count for more than 7 point victories?

Depends on if you’re the loser or the winner. Losers try to minimize the scope of the damage, winners try to maximize the scope of their victory. We can go ahead and agree to disagree to save ourselves the pissing match if you want.

I think we all know they are the most talented team across the board we'll play all year (if we get to Atlanta) and know that it's a game we could absolutely lose (just like the last 2).

So, I wouldn't call it fear, but respect I guess?

If I’m not mistaken, they all count as one (1) win.

I think what really matters right now in this UGA-UT discussion is that UGA has a far better football team at the moment and is highly likely to plunder UT in Neyland once again.

Scared certainly isn't the right word. But I think any Alabama should admit that Georgia is capable of beating Alabama. They have played Alabama nearly even the last two years with Alabama making that one extra play that Georgia didn't. The recruiting/talent has basically become even. Georgia has a really good experienced QB. And of course the game between them would likely be played in Atlanta where Georgia has a bit of a home crowd advantage. If they play again this year, I expect a close game just like the last two years.

Bama shouldn’t really be afraid of anyone in the sec until they are Beaten on a consistent basis.

It’s house money at this time. It’s a machine. They will get beat consistently by someone, one day. But not now.


I remember in the 90s when FSU and Miami were unbeatable....or it appeared to be.

Then Bobbie got old and Miami lost many good coaches.

It happens and it’s cyclical.

Considering what they've done the past decade, doubt they are scared of anyone. That said, this should be the best team UGA has fielded in the Smart era, and they didn't exactly dominate the last two.



Not "scared", well aware that the bama defense has a lot of questions going into this season and it will likely take Tua being on a mission and playing his best against our best opponents this year.

Have never read nor heard of any "we comin'" comments till you. Afraid? No. Are UGA fans afraid of Bama? Hell no. Respect from both towards the other? Yes.

I sense AU fans are afraid of UGA and Bama, though. Otherwise, you wouldn't be a third-wheel trying to stir the pot.

Saban clearly terrified. He's even having the team practice retirement.

Fear? lol

Bama shouldn't fear anyone, and neither should UGA. Complacency is the enemy for both teams, and I expect both to be engaged from start to finish and have amazing seasons.

If the two meet in the SECCG again, I expect the best game yet.

I think this puts it as well as anything else I've seen. Let's be honest, bama goes into over 90%+ of their games KNOWING they are going to win. UGA is one of the few that you at least sweat a little and think that it might come down to the 4th quarter. That's not really fear but it's definitely different than playing most of the other teams you face.

No, this is a terrible thread. It's on the level of something MsGarrison would start.
