No its when people like you just use the head to head record during an arbitrary period as the main accomplishment. That is a "super bowl"


It recent history but you guys can't seem to deal with it.Just like a pointed out the 80's and 90's as an "arbitrary period"for AU having a better record. And complete bullshite to say it's the reason you guys say it's the reason for it being our "super bowl"

quote:

Hmmm, I didnt know AU was limited to 2 rivals


Sorry shoulda said 1 rival.I mean it's pretty hard to count Bama since you guys were pulling for em so hard in the NC game.


quote:

Are Auburn fans using this as their only accomplishment?


What?Are you saying UGA fans are doing this in regards to AU?



How many countless AU posts have we seen shitting on
UGA and '80 and '10 our thrown in our face constantly.It's only natural to point out our recent dominance.

Any way you slice it,you guys are far more obsessed with us than the other way around.

Why not Wisc under your system ?


They were never seriously considered after their conference game.

Hey...you guys need to head over to the "2nd best team in the SEC" thread. Theyy are tossing around LSU, Florida, Georgia and Tennessee. I keep trying to bring Auburn into the discussion and can't get anybody musch to agree they should be in the discussion except for WG Dawg.

So why play a conference Championship Game ? Prior to that they were considered in the top 4, but afterwards they were out. Why didn't Bama's loss to AU eliminate them, it was only a week earlier. Your system is based on perception and the "eye test", and the Playoffs were suppose to eliminate the element.

Because if not for the conference championship game, Wisconsin probably would have gone. Does anybody seriously believe they were one of the top 4 teams in the country?

To a degree it was, you are right. but in this particular case, the eye test was correct.

But, Wisconsin would have been eliminated in your system, too, don't forget.

I've got to go for a bit. I keep getting error message saying my hard drive is almost full, and it isn't. Dell partitioned the hard drive with one small drive and a couple of much larger ones. I have to figure out how to reconfigure the hard drives so it will stop giving me error messages.

And they would have earned it on the field instead of SportsCenter.

Again, one week earlier the four teams would have been UGA, Clemson, AU and Wisc. Bama gets in by not winning their own division a week later. The system now makes Conferences a waste of time.

Good Lord,been hearing the "super bowl" talking point from Aubbies long before this message board.

quote:

Its your only talking point hence



What?We have more overall wins,more SECCs,more bowl wins and as many NC's.If ANY school has only ONE talking point it's the countless '10 cries coming from your fan base.

quote:

Lordy, thats a stretch, especially coming from you


You aren't? Your obsession and hatred for us was proved in the NC game.Your fan base knew if we won that your ONLY claims of having a superior program (2010!)
would be gone.God,how pathetic is that?

Is there a UGA REC? If not, then probably not. Refs won't let it happen.

Auburn was 40-17 "better" than UGA at one point as well.

I get what you are saying, but the argument started because a LSU fan said that based on recent history Auburn and Georgia would split our series 50/50 over the next 10 years. Can't you see the folly of that statement? I mean...it might go 50/50 over the next 10 years, but not based upon recent history.


In recent history your current coach is 1-1 vs Auburn (2-1 counting the SECC). That seems pretty damn 50/50.

No they weren't. Your Bama envy has blinded you to what the CFP Committee if charged to do. There is no need for a Committee is the bids are automatic. But there is a need because choosing teams among a pool who play very unequal schedules requires subjective analysis. Also, there is the need to consider independents and G5 programs. This is not the NFL where teams play within a much smaller pool, making the competition much more even. And Alabama plays in what is the toughest or 2nd toughest division in all of college football.

But ultimately it does not matter what any of us think, the rules are what they are. And to your chagrin and continuous frustration the object of your envy and hatred is once again college football's legitimate and worthy champion. It's especially sweet, being at a time when college football's popularity is at an all time high.

It was a system to replace computers and sportswriters. It left us with 12 people who meet for 6 weeks at a resort every weekend, and most of them were loser coaches or Administrators. The only reason to have a Committee is to select 4 out of 5 Champions to play in a playoff.

Your pool argument supports my thinking. Again, you claim on league is the toughest, but we have no evidence to prove it. We think the SEC is the toughest, but to pick what was the third best team in the regular season is just more "eye testing".

There are no rules, just the judgement of 12 people. A smaller pool of people selecting means a greater chance of bias. Again, the Playoffs have become the NIT.

Bama was not the third best team in the SEC. Your own HC said after the NC, that Alabama was the best team in the country. He even said that AU was hot, got an injured Bama at home and took advantage of it. I gained a lot of respect for him with those comments. For one thing they were completely accurate and it took guts to say that with some in the AU fanbase as looney as they are.

BS, you had zero injuries on Offense and scored two TDs( one was a hail mary). The injuries to LB didn’t effect the DLs inability to get to Stidham or the DBs inability to cover the WRs. Every team has injuries at the end of the year. AU D had their share. I’m sorry but Gus never said AU won because of Bama’s injuries.

Bama’s best win in the regular season was MSU.

Let me get this straight. You think a 4 loss Auburn team was better than a 1 loss National Championship team?

You might have been better that one day, but come on.

Seriously? Okay. Then lets just used recent history being our coach is 1-0. See how that works? But if you extend that recent history just a small amount a much clearer picture forms of who has had the upper hand in this series lately. And it is nowhere near 50/50.
