I like land with fewer neighbors. I sold a 200 acre small farm a couple years ago to relocate to a 16 acre spot in a significantly better state. I couldn’t imagine living on a 1/8 acre cookie cutter with an HOA wasting money with no return like that. But you do you slick.

LOL, UGA is one the best state schools in the country, and has the same admissions stats as UVA and UNC.


Sigh, go get a tech grad to explain the difference the identifiers UGA and Georgia represent.

Here’s some objective data for you


I guess you overlooked, couldn’t keep up with the full grade point bump UGA gives any class above the minimum. And the difference in grading scales the public schools in each state use. I have to assume you missed all of that or (that Georgia education strikes again) and you don’t understand the difference between objective and subjective data…

This really explains why y’all can’t grasp the Bennett isn’t a good QB.



Now run along and find someone to put this arc of the thread in terms you can understand and don’t come back until…. Actually just don’t come back.

I live on Palm Beach. I wouldn’t even bother taking a shite on your hick farm in the hills. You definitely live in the middle of nowhere - at 50 cents an acre, I’m sure that 200 acre sale was the most money you’ve ever seen.

You keep obsessing over this putative “GPA bump.”

Now explain Tennessee’s almost 80 PERCENT acceptance rate. Seriously, that’s a fricking joke. Arizona State and UCF are more competitive schools.

Can you not distinguish between subjective opinions and objective data? Again, the MOST competitive SAT / ACT scores accepted to Tennessee would be REJECTED by UGA. That is an objective fact. Look at the aforementioned data

Now, away with you, your cousin is calling you from the barn. She wants you to take her on the cow and see sum of dem der acreage. fricking hillbilly.

Because fewer students apply to Tennessee… 3 million fewer people in the state, some really solid schools in the middle and western part of the state.

60 universities Tennessee vs 26 universities in Ga. If you add in tech schools and GMC you still have fewer options and more people.

The answer you are looking for is simple math. Well with a Georgia education maybe it’s not that simple.

My fellow UGA fan took the bait. Everyone knows UGA is a better school academically. No need to feed the trolls.

They are an outstanding Vet school. Beyond that? University of Tennessee has better research schools, better engineering schools, a better medical school, see where this is going?

With a basic undergrad degree you are expected to earn around 51-52K a year, tuition is about the same, enrollment is about the same. The only claim UGA can present as a “better” institution is fewer people are accepted. And that’s because more people apply to UGA. Fewer universities and more applicants has that effect. Simple math.

Georgia has almost half the options and 1/3 more people. Of course more people are going to be turned away.

Bro, without Cam that 2010 Auburn team would’ve been 7-5/8-4. It was a total fluke that you won. Kirby has actually built a program. Auburn hasn’t had a decent and consistent program since the early 2000s and may never have one again. Auburn is behind the times in a major way. Good luck with your new coach. Lol.


Auburn has 3 undefeated seasons and 3 NC since 1993. Auburn played in the natty in 2013 and was the best team in 2017.

Lot more success than GA

Auburn, Florida and Tennessee won National Championships. I hate 2 of these teams, but get for real.

You’re mistaking cause and effect. UVA has less people than GA, and yet it’s one of the most competitive universities in the world. The same applies to UMichigan and UNC. Why is Tennessee unable to attract any out of state applicants? Moreover, why do Tennessee’s most competitive students (as evidenced by your lackluster SAT scores) leave the state to attend better schools, like UGA?

Furthermore, Tennessee has a population of almost seven million. That’s not a “small” state, and certainly doesn’t explain the acceptance rate. Why does WVU, in a state less than half of the size of TN, have the same acceptance rate as Tennessee?

Why do the number of universities in Tennessee matter? Presumably, top students should want to go to the top school. Are schools like Mid Tennessee State really poaching your would-be students? That’s embarrassing - that would never happen at UGA. Schools like Georgia Southern do not compete for the same top students.

Why do states with smaller populations (UNC, UVA, UMich, UGA) have more competitive flagship state schools than many states with larger populations (CUNY in NY, Penn State in PA, Ohio State in OH, etc)? Why do states with SMALLER population than Tennessee have better schools - why is U Wisconsin so much more competitive than U of Tennessee by every admissions metric? Is that due to numbers? WI has less people than TN.

You can’t debate / form a coherent argument for your life. No matter the case, the fact stands that Tennessee accepts almost anyone who applies, and that Tennessee’s top applicants would be rejected at UGA.

I consistently own your arse with objective data and irrefutable arguments (see above), to which your only retorts are highlighting Tennessee’s lesser population (of course, who the frick would want to live there?) and jabs about UGA’s education, which well outpaces Tennessee by EVERY metric.

Also, UGA does not just decimate Tennessee regarding acceptance rate. Our SAT and ACT scores are much higher. We are much higher ranked by EVERY publication (again, Tennessee’s peers are usually Kentucky and Arkansas LOL). Our graduates earn more. We have more Rhodes scholars. We send our students to better grad schools.

Tennessee’s top applicants are objectively UGA rejects. That’s not about acceptance rate. That’s about Tennessee being a shite school, and UGA being one of the premier state schools in the country.

Lastly, even if the difference was predicted solely on relative state populations (which it is NOT, as proven in several points above), who cares? Do U. Oregon graduates argue that their university is just as strong as Cal-Berkley, but Oregon simply has less residents than California? Regardless.m, Berkley is simply a better school. The difference between Berkley and U Oregon (SAT, ACT, acceptance rate, etc.) is the same gap between Tennessee and UGA. Except Tennessee only has a few million less residents than Georgia, whereas Oregon has tens of millions less than CA. Do those three million less residents explain Tennessee being on par with WVU academically?

Check mate.
