Not when you constantly win Big 12 titles. After they win the Natty this year then all will be right in the world.

If you swapped UGA and OU, UGA would have a ton of Big12 titles too....this is such a stupid thread.

Georgia's offense didn't let Florida score 38 points in one half.

When the offense can't stay on the field, that helps the other offense. Don't play stupid.


Teams that held Florida to fewer points and yards:

Vanderbilt. (More yards, but I digress.)
Kentucky.
South Carolina.
Tennessee.

Teams renowned for their amazing offenses.

I mean, maybe Mullen just...you guys are gonna hate to hear this, but maybe he just figured you guys out? "We didn't have the players" for a team with most 5-stars in the country doesn't really get to have that excuse.

, it's fair to say he's underachieved.

This board loves to hate on ESPN but will regurgitate their talking points

2016 first season

2017 loss natty in OT to Bama

2018 loss SECCG to Bama also not sure anyone was beating Clemson that year

2019 loss to LSU who had one of the best seasons of all time

2020 started walk on at QB and JT didn't get healthy until after the Florida game

Can't really say Kirby is under underachieving when their biggest loses are to Saban and Burrow

Bro what, Kirby has been punking Mullen for a while now but because we started a 4th string walk on last year it's Mullen who had the upper hand

UGA is too cheap to make a commitment to win at an elite level. The staff is a pure recruiting staff with little to show as a developer and coach. They are a very emotion driven team with a lot of high recruited talent that doesn’t play as a team. Guys skipping bowls, and giving up eligibility coupled with the normal 5-7 off season arrests (good deal avoiding that this year by the way, credit where credit is due) just screams a me over team locker room. When you watch them you see a lot of individual individual instead of team effort.

And no, Kirbys seat isn’t hot or getting hot. Avoid scandal that embraces the school, beat Auburn and GaTech on a regular basis, don’t lose a bunch to Florida and he is safe. The roster alone means they will win a bunch of games every year.

There are a lot of expectations this year to win it all.

So far Smart has choked away big games. He rode Richt's seniors to the NC game in year two and has had diminishing returns since.

If he screws up again this year, it's not the fan base he will have to worry about. The recruits will stop believing that championship talk.

Alabama already started last year to pull away again on the recruiting trail last year. This will only increase if Kirby cements his place as a choker in the eyes of the college football world.

It's do or die time in Athens.

You didn’t lose that game because of Offense. Your Defense got torched.

Riley has 4 straight conference championships. Day has 2 straight. Kirby has 1 in 5 seasons. You aren’t comparing Apples to Apples.

Nope, good or bad they're in it for the long haul with Kirby. He's the best they can do.

Swap OU or tOSU with UGA and Kirby would be just like Riley and Day. You aren't talking apples to apples you fool.

Kirby would definitely lose in the BIG12 as those teams play offense. Kirby is just beginning to figure out defense does not win games it only helps. Offense today wins games
