Not a championship from Ohio State in the last decade.

That still is not as long ago as Florida's last title. And you guys can't even beat UCF.
You don’t even have more championships this century than the program who can’t beat UCF. Sick burn bro

Didn't they beat the absolute shite out of Ohio State for that last title? Weird to talk smack about it.
I think the irony this dipshit brings here is outstanding. Unironically talking down to everyone in this conference like his school is Bama or something.
Less championships than Florida, Georgia, LSU, and Bama in the last 2 decades. That’s 1/3 of this conference. Hasn’t won a ship in a decade, but runs his mouth like they don’t perpetually lose the biggest games year in and year out. I’ve never seen anything like it.

The man coached at Alabama from 2007-2023. It takes a pretty significant level of willful ignorance to think Alabama, in those hundreds of games against multiple ranked opponents, NEVER gave up a substantial lead.
It was a slightly hyperbolic statement, but also name me a game that Saban was up 28-0 and relinquished the lead. I’ll wait.

Why do you keep running your mouth when you know Ohio State is a better program than Florida? You guys have not been relevant since the 2010s.

Mostly bc you’re on here talking shite like you run the NCAA. Incredible you can state objective facts but if I say something back like you have less championships than Florida in the last 2, 3, and 4 decades im “running my mouth”
If you talk this much shite, and you can’t back it up, expect to be rightfully called out you fricking child lol

Do we need a 28+ lead, or just a big lead?
Because these goalposts keep moving.
However, to answer your question, I do not recall him giving up a 28 point lead.
The other side of that equation, however, is that Alabama had a 24 point lead over Auburn in 2010 and we LOST that game; DeBoer gave up a 28 point lead and WON the game against Georgia.

Georgia is going to need to upgrade at the skill positions on offense.
The dropped TD pass by 11 on Georgia's first possession hurt in many manners.
That said, Beck is still like Jared Goff, in that they're both very slow readers of the developing play. They can both sling it, but their synapses don't fire quick enough in comparison to many of their peers.

It was a hyperbolic statement, 98% of the time Saban had a huge lead the Tide didn’t let the other team take the lead. So I said “never” forgetting that Bama fans in general really love nitpicking on here and should have just said “almost never” so I could have just stopped the dozens of Bama fans rrrreeeee’ing back to my post “the 2010 IRON BOWL” or “well what about this 1 game “ instead of actually just listening to the point I was making - which still stands despite the Bama fans whipping out their gump encyclopedia on me.

Kirby’s in game management is pretty similar to Saban’s. Break teams down with depth, play conservative and take calculated shots when they’re there. You never see Kirby deviate from that, for good and bad. Last night was different. And it might open up the Georgia offense more for the entire season.

To be fair, it's not so much you saying it rather that it's been repeated to death on this forum. This whole narrative of "Saban NEVER surrenders big leads!"
We watched plenty of big leads evaporate. I pointed out a similar thing happened in the 2009 title game against Texas. We jumped out to a big lead, got complacent, and watched Texas get back to within 3 points with a freshman QB. It took another big defensive play to flip (a sack and fumble) in which Alabama scored, then another TD, but we all watched a team with a big lead at the half look like they were about to give the game away by going ultra-conservative.
It's not the first time it's happened to us, and it's happened to other teams as well. It can happen when a team gets a big (but not unsurmountable) lead quickly.
Yeah, Alabama let UGA storm back. If the game ends 34-33, then the narrative shifts drastically but instead with it ending 41-34, the nitpick from opposing fans is "but you almost lost".
But we didn't.
Is there something to learn? Absolutely.
Should we also give SOME credit to Georgia's players and staff for working out a game plan instead of just giving up? I should hope so.

Yes, and if you read my whole post it’s more about Bama’s resilience and winning the game and Georgia opening up their offense more than ever before in the last 2 years. It wasn’t really a critique on blowing the lead at all.
Unfortunately most fans read the whole “comeback from big lead” and immediately point to some mundane inaccurate technicality and statistics when in general I was just speaking about the take aways from the game. Which is Bama is very good to put an arse whooping of a half on Georgia and that Georgia may have a blessing in disguise in this early loss in opening up their playbook like they haven’t had to since the Peach Bowl vs Ohio State.

Until Saturday, all you heard about was Beck's quick release...

That's a lot to think about. Smart hates to get away from conservative football. His nature is to play field position and let his 5 stars beat down the opponent. But big games call for bigger risks. The answer will be in Austin.

It was a weird, exciting game. I don’t think either teams have ever played that type of game before.
Bama under Saban never relinquished those kinds of leads (let me finish that’s not an attack on Deboar) but also I’ve never seen a Kirby team play like they did in the 2nd half. Kirby post game said they went into 2nd half with 4 down mentality. I’ve never seen a Kirby type team attack attack attack on offense like they did like that. Usually it’s teams playing against Georgia like that bc they’re down so much. A type of wreckless aggression that was concise and dangerous but also leads to more risks, ie turnovers.
Kirby’s in game management is pretty similar to Saban’s. Break teams down with depth, play conservative and take calculated shots when they’re there. You never see Kirby deviate from that, for good and bad. Last night was different. And it might open up the Georgia offense more for the entire season.
I personally would be worried for everyone else playing Georgia this year (I am not worried for Florida bc this Gator team is hot dog shite lol) and yes, Georgia lost the game, but in their loss it looks like they opened up the offense more than they have in the last 2 years. Bama looks like they will easily be in the playoffs this season
I agree.
I think we see a pissed off and super focused Georgia team. No way they play as bad as they did in the first half again. Even with that uncharacteristically awful first half play, they still almost beat bama.
