Bama's reign is over. The cheating has become legal and every team can throw money at players without repercussion. Teams with a more built in recruiting & money advantage will now be on top.

Georgia's talent advantage over other schools since 2019 has never really been in doubt.
Yet their record against a declining and retiring Saban (who according to many of you was not a good X&O's and gameday coach and I kind of agree with this) was only 1-3 against him.
How will you fair against a DeBoer led team who will undoubtedly hold a major X&O's advantage over you?
UGA has not been #1 in talent other than one season (2020). That season UGA was forced to use their 4th string QB most of the season due to covid sit-outs and injury. They also got hit by covid itself a few times.
2018 OSU had the highest talent composite (UGA was 3rd, behind Bama).
2017, 2019, 2021, 2022 and 2023 Alabama had the highest ranking according to 247's talent composite.

So... basically your entire premise is incorrect.
UGA will likely do well against DeBoer for 2 reasons.
1. He's not the GOAT coach.
2. He's an unproven recruiter and over the next few seasons it's very likely UGA will start to have a talent edge over Bama.
The other thing is it really won't matter due to the 12 team playoff. It doesn't matter if UGA loses regular season games or SEC championships to Bama going forward, because UGA will likely still make the playoffs in a 12 team format. They would have made a 12 team playoff had it existed every season Smart has been there other than the first.
And Smart is .500 against Saban in the playoff, with the loss in OT and the win by 15 points.

None of this seems to be true, based on recruiting rankings.
2018 was the biggest recruiting year for Georgia and where they got their biggest recruiting advantage over the rest of the SEC but I figure nobody is left from that.
The class definitely paid off but they haven't had another head and shoulders better class since then.

That class was full of transfers. Kirby learned a lot from that class.

That was a great class (323 overall ranking), but UGA has had the #1 class based on the composite rankings for 247 in 2020 (313 score), and 2024 (317 score). Their 2022 class had a 318 score (#3 that year). UGA had a score of 315 in 2023.
UGA's recruiting really hasn't fallen off much at all since 2018. Suggesting that is a bit misleading.
They had one class below 309 in terms of score since 2018, that being the 2021 class. That was largely due to the overall size of the class (20 recruits).
Now other SEC schools were a bit off in their recruiting in 2018, so you can say there was a bigger gap that one year. But to be honest most of the top of that class (those who left for the NFL as Juniors) were gone for the 2021 season and nearly all of them were gone for the 2022 campaign. That group was the primary class for UGA in 2020, which unfortunately was the covid year that messed that season up in many ways for many teams.

Bama had the highest blue chip ratio in CFB history last year, so I find it difficult to believe UGA had more talent.

Paul Johnson, too. If Deboer turns out to be another Dan Mullen or Paul Johnson, I think that would be wonderful. They don't steal your recruits and their team sucks half the time.
Who needs to slave away recruiting when they have a superior scheme and superior coaching mind!

Probably.

I agree. Georgia choked in the SECCG. It was embarrassing. Had no business losing to that Alabama team.
Maybe the most disappointing loss of the Kirby Smart era. 2023 Alabama had no business being in the playoff, and it was 100% our fault we let it happen.
