what point is it you think you're making here? Because if we're using your same "gotcha" logic, then ole miss was clearly the superior program than bama in 2014/2015 despite the hardware that would indicate otherwise.
In other threads, he was very into the whole “our 2 head to head wins trump your 2 national titles” idea.

Again....Championship teams have championship depth. We had injuries in that game too. We had injuries in the NC game, the SECCG game against LSu, against Ohio st and in the 2nd natty game. It didn't stop us. Championship teams plug in and win anyway. That's the difference.
All teams have injuries, but your own sites said you were healthier than you had been in a long time while Bama was hit with a number of injuries to starters, 7 by the time Georgia started its comeback.

Did you mean to post this towards the Georgia fan who was citing losses over the past 3 years as evidence?
No. A UGA fan posted that in the last 3 seaons of playing fotoball UGA only has 2 losses. You then asked who they were to as if the fact that they're both to alabama is some kind of trump card.
So again I ask...what exact, specific point is it you were making there?

What do the losses matter then? Alabama didn't win the national championship, that's all that matters right? If you want to go that route, then go that route.
But if you want to talk about the losses, then realize who the frick you can't beat. Or keep nut swinging other teams that did what you couldn't.

I'm not exactly sure what your point originally was either. You brought up Georgia's winning streak and cited they only had two losses in three seasons, then got upset when you were reminded that they were both to Alabama.
Sounds like you were lucky to skip playing them one of those seasons.

You are still mistaking that flawed article description as “fully healthy”.

in my personal opinion the teams lost to are irrelevant, within the context of comparing two programs over a given time frame. If the discussion is "which program has been better the last 3 years- UGA or Alabama", then I think you take every single solitary thing you can take as it rleates to what's happened on the field of play and compare. And in this case, Alabama has a 2-1 head to head advantage while UGA has the advantage in overall wins, win percentage, playoff wins, and of cousre the ever so important trump card of national titles by a margin of 2-1.
quote:

Wouldn't say ALL that matters in general, but with such a tiny time frame of jsut 3 yeras, if it's a 2-0 advantage for one school over another yeah, I'd probably say taht that's of paramount importance.

you arne't makin the point you think you are. If our losses were to vandy and SC it'd be "wtf is wrong with yall? You can win a bunch of games but trip up against these scrubs?" The fact that our only 2 losses in the last 40something games have been in a championship game agianst the greatest to ever do it just strengthens our resume, as far as losses are concerned. Compare that to bama's multitude of losses over the same time period which include a 4-loss jimbo fisher team and a 4-loss LSU, among several others.
quote:

not sure who is nut swinging who, but the objective, black and white, undeniable facts are that we have 2 of the last 3 national titles while alabmaa has zero.
In the Richt days when we were winning 10 games a year and got an SEC title or two along the way, the main retort was "richt can't win the big one. UGA still can't win a natty. 40 year drought, blah blah blah". Now that we've won 2 of the last 3 it's "oh yeah sure you won the natty but you didn't beat one team in particular on the way to doing so".

I would have thought that Georgia has had enough success the past few years that their fans would not still feel the need to measure everything in relation to Alabama. But clearly they do.

false, some other UGA poster did that.

not upset at all, Captain Hyperbole. I simply pointed out that it's kinda irrelevant that our 2 losses in 40+ games have both come to alabama, considering all the other accoldates over that time.
quote:

you mean the season that they lost 2 regular season games (both of which were to teams we slaughtered) and didn't even win their division? Oh yeah we're so fortunate we ducked having bama that year lemme tell ya!

It's funny that you are trying to call losing to Alabama a great accomplishment while tearing Alabama down over the same time period for the teams they did lose to.

while tearing them down
can you show me where I've "torn them down"? You bama fans can't seem to keep one consistent line of discussion to save your lives. Here, I"ll remind you. Here is a copy and paste of my first post in the thread:
quote:
It is worth noting that this is the first time since 2006-2008 that bama has gone 3 years without a title. Which honestly is mind blowing when you think about it and a testament to just how otherwordly elite they were under saban.
it also shows that they are quite clearly adn objectdively taking a step back, even if it's only a small step.
Only a true bama fan would possibly take offense to that. Although it isn't heaping effusive praise on you, so I suppose in your view that counts as an insult.
What caused me to jump back into the discussion, that a different UGA fan started, was to simply point out that the big gotcha attempt of "well you've lost to us twice the last 3 years" doesn't somehow erase the 2 national titles we've also accumulated. That's it- that's the takeaway.

I literally quoted the part where you did it.
You cited Alabama as not a big deal to lose to because they were so great, then literally fricking said "Compare that to Alabama who over the same time period".
You LOST to the team you are comparing.

We strive to be the best program in the nation of the 2020’s, so who should we be measured against?

brother that is...LITERALLY...what we are doing. We are comparing two different teams over a given time period, in this case 2021-2023.

Sure did. We lost to them twice while beating them once, en route to winning 2 national titles to their zero and winning six more games with 5 less losses. Kind of a no brainer actually after spelling it out like that.

what's hilarious about this is that is it truly the EXACT opposite.
UGA fan- "hey we've won 2 national titles in 3 years!"
Bama fan- "OK YEAH BUT YOU STILL LOST TO US THOUGH"
in the mind of a bama fan, every other team in NCAAF coast to coast is only measured by their results against alabama. All else is irrelevant.

Do you not even realize that a Georgia fan started this thread?
