Injuries do impact the game. So do bad/missed calls by the refs.
So would renting a billboard to complain about officials qualify as a beta move?

Yes.
Fair enough.
How about if Georgia gets Dan Jackson, Chazz Chamblis, and Nolan Smith back? How about McConkey? Is he fully healthy?
Darnell Washington?
Did losing Harrison hurt OSU? Absolutely. You would have to be a fool to think otherwise. Ddi losing your TE hurt? Absolutely!
How about Georgia's injuries? Did they hurt? We lost a projected 1st round OLB, his backup, our starting safety, a projected 1 round TE, and our most effective WR was playing at about 50-60%.
If y'all want Georgia fans to admit that your injuries hurt you, then yes. I admit it.
Can you admit that all of Georgia's injuries hurt us?
You can play hypotheticals and what ifs all day long. It is what it is. There is no way to know how the game would have gone had both teams been completely healthy and no bad calls had been made, and the coaches made all the correct calls etc....those are all a part of the game.

That's kind of...the point.
Then you can't complain.
The next thing is that OSU should have had their backups ready, because ours came in and performed. Apparently yours did not.

Sure, if we're doing what ifs. I'll take JSN, Marv Jr., Stover, Henderson, and Williams all back please.

How many moral victories have you racked up this week? damn impressive week you have had so far

Do you think Texas wins if they get Quinn Ewers and Colt McCoy back?
Colt? No, they mustered 6 points after being given literal Christmas presents of field position on their first two drives. Plus I'm sure his dad would have pulled him out after halftime.
Ewers? Who knows, Bama would make a good play on D and then some dumbass would jump offsides or hit the QB 3 minute after he threw the ball giving them a first down on 3 & 30.

I can absolutely complain. Changing the gameplan doesn't accout for losing those kinds of players.

We played with backups from the start. Don't forget, Marv Jr. is the second best receiver on our team and we weren’t handing the ball off to receivers the whole game for the hell of it.

I think what you'll notice is that I've been responding to posts made by insecure Georgia fans. It isn't about moral victories. It's about correcting a few loudmouths.

Who knows, but it doesn't give the vapors if someone discusses it like some of the folks here.

No, it does not. And neither does it when you lost the kinds of players we lost.

I get it. I would be upset, too. But the injuries happened.

I don't think it gives anybody the vapors so much as when injuries to Georgia are mentioned they are summarily dismissed as non consequential. I mean...I get it. Everybody likes their players better than the other teams players. And it isn't even a matter of which player is the better player so much as which has the greater impact on their teams ability to play as effectively.
And honestly? After a year of Alabama fans crying about injuries? Georgia fans are tired of hearing it. And now Alabama fans want to come on here and scream about Ohio State injuries as some kind of a "gotcha!"
It just looks rankish and pitiful.

I'm waiting for reports of the OSU faithful renting billboards to complain about the non-targeting call. They've been very upset about that all week.

If ifs and buts were buckeyes and nuts, Ohio State would have a championship!

Very good point and we heard about it for days, weeks, months, and years after the game!

I was waiting on a different Georgia fan to lay that out. He declined when challenged.

Y'all had to play a receiver at RB, too?

Don't even bring up the secondary. You'll lose that one. Hard.
It isn't about what counts or doesn't. I'm just not going to let some BS go uncorrected.

I stopped getting upset about football games when I was 17 and didn't get any offers.

Here is what you want hear, in the 2017 NCG between Alabama and Georgia we got Sony Michel and Javon Wims hurt but you will never hear Alabama fans say we should have won that game.

Oh that's why you've been bitching nonstop for almost a week now.

I've been discussing. A lot of your "fanbase" have been running their mouths.
No, I'm not upset. If anything, I'm entertained.

If you cant comprehend that injuries impact the game then I do not know what to tell you. Its a simple fact that when your best players are not on the field the team is not as good when said players are 100%
If you cannot comprehend that injuries are a major part of a game where giant athletic humans throw their bodies into each other than I don’t know what to tell you.
Super Bowl champions lose their best players every single season and still win Super Bowls. You never hear about this injury excuse in the pros just pussy arse fans.
