If he can't beat UGA and Bama nearly half the time, then his seat will warm up again. And as far as UGA is concerned, he lost with the better team two years ago and lost the game on the bigger stage last year.

2 wins over .500.

I'm going with 9-3 and could go to 10-2.

And your weak schedule will keep you from imploding. UGA would have at least three losses in the West. Hell they had two SECW loses last year in their best season in 37 years.

And Auburn lost to us. Think about that. Auburn fans like to insinuate that Georgia was not very good last season, yet we beat your team by 21 points when it counted. Then we beat the #2 ranked team in the nation and played for a National Championship. Auburn? You lost to UCF on the way to another 4 loss season....which, interestingly enough was better than most of your seasons since 2013.
Dude. He was paying your team a compliment. Can't you stop trolling Georgia even when the thread is about Auburn?

AU also lost to LSU, so AU had their moments. Again, the only reason UGA got to the playoff was because they played in the East. Now their fans want to pretend they ran thru the SEC and only lost in the finals because the refs cheated.

The other team having the ball in the 4th quarter with a chance to take the lead does not denote an arse-kicking, whatever the final score says. It was the equivalent of a basketball team trailing by one or two buckets late in the game, but were forced to send the other team to the foul line, spreading the final score to a larger margin.
Look, we get it. You won the SECCG, and it certainly wasn't Auburn's finest moment that day...but methinks the UGA revisionist historians are going overboard with trying to convince everyone it was an arse-kicking, arguably to distract people (or possibly just themselves) from remembering that Auburn succeeded at something that Georgia fell short of doing that season, and their (UGA) fans were practically tasting it....I'll let you guess what that was
As for the OP....4 losses or more won't surprise me, as long as Gus' gameplan remains the same

Really? Prove it. You can't. You are guessing, which doesn't surprise me. We were good enough to win the SEC, and that's all you need to know.

We still go back to the fact djs was paying your team a compliment, and you took that opportunity to try to troll Georgia. You just can't help yourself, can you?

The Oline will be a concern losing 3 or 4 starters, but if Gus can learn to get the ball out of Stidhams's hands with quick hitters, the offense will be okay. I really like the new RB you guys brought in. I think he's going to step right in and contribute big time. I would even give an outside shot of Auburn winning 11 games, but things will have to fall just right and the new Oline will have to gell very quickly.
Fair assessment
The schedule looks brutal, though.

7-5

That's the biggest concern for me. Amen Corner on the road and throw-in yet another top-15 out-of-conference opponent for your first game and there is no margin for error.
Stidham and the WR returning should help break-in the new OL and RBs.
Good to talk to you old friend

We know they would have had at least two losses in the SECW(AU,UA), so more than likely they do not make it to the SECCG. Does a two loss non-divisional champ make the playoffs?

Three? If we got to play the same Bama as au did, we would have beaten them.

No we don't. Alabama showed no inclination of replacing Jalen hurts mid game during the reglular season. We very well might have beaten Alabama.....but again, only a guess.
Just because you beat us in the regular season the first time does not mean you would have if we had been in the west. Again, the circumstances would have been different and the intensity level of the game would have been different. We had already wrapped up an appearance in the SECCG when we played Auburn the first time, so the game wasn't as important.
All you can do is guess and speculate. You need to deal with facts. The facts say we won the SECCG, won the Rose Bowl against the #2 team in the country and played for the National Championship....very nearly winning that. Those are the facts. That is all anybody can say. Anything else is pure guess and speculation.

If you ignore the refs taking 4 points away from uga and stalling another promising uga drive, sure.
Posted on 4/13/18 at 9:24 am to djsdawg
All I know is, my UGA buddies in the bricks and mortar world didn't breathe a sigh of relief until that final TD. If that's the emotional equivalent of an arse-kicking, then y'all haven't kicked enough teams' asses, lol...
Don't worry, I fully admit I'm still not happy with the outcome

Yea, because of those reasons. Big diff between a 6 point lead and a 10+ point lead.
