They probably can't get their refs lined up to help them win like in 2019. I'm sure naturdayinathens is sad about it.
Seriously I'm looking forward to the 2024 home schedule more than any other in the past with Notre Dame and UGA coming.

What doesn't make any sense is UF going to A&M in 2020 if we were going in 2022. We should have gone to Auburn. They were our oldest rival, predating even Georgia and we went from playing them every year to almost never playing them. It is an underrated rivalry that was killed by expansion in 1992.
Auburn is also the closest SEC school in proximity to Gainesville.

If you read the whole thing, the conspiracy he believes is that the SEC doesn't want the game to be aired by the networks they are cutting ties with, so it won't happen until ESPN is fully in control of SEC programming.
Still seems far fetched though.
Trust me, we ain't scared of playing anyone, anywhere, right now. We already had booked great games the SEC made us cancel.

Georgia obviously wasn't looking to replace SEC teams that came off their schedule, or in the case of GT, former SEC teams.
You're right in that UGA didn't replace GT. But the minimum SEC games a team could schedule was set to 5 in those days. So UGA could keep playing their 5 other SEC opponents and still qualify.
That didn't impact the Bama game. What did is Bama wanting to play LSU yearly instead of sporadically... and dropping UGA as a yearly opponent because of that. UGA couldn't drop down to 4 games, so ended up having to add Ole Miss to cover the hole.
The lack of Bama/UGA games since 1965 was a bama decision, not a UGA one. We had no history with Ole Miss before that and no desire to trade out Bama for Ole Miss. Bama had the desire to trade out UGA for LSU.

2020 was the covid year. The SEC scrambled to get the two extra SEC games on the schedule and for the large part (not all) took the next 2 teams on each team's schedule. So UGA got Arkansas (who they had regularly scheduled for 2021) and MSU (who is scheduled for 2022). They were able to duck Bama (who was scheduled for 2021 but got replaced by Arkansas for 2020 to do UF a favor). They're lucky for that as if they had gotten Bama, they likely wouldn't have won the east.

Very far fetched. The scheduling rotation that caused the game to be where it is on the schedule started in 2014. I don't think the SEC had that much foresight.

Alabama played Georgia Tech every year until they left the SEC.

you better hope UGA doesn’t come into Kyle field in the next 5 or so year and put Jimbo’s head on a stick outside and claim it for their own.

Yes, and you dropped from 8 to 6 conference games in 1966 once you dropped UGA. You just finished out the home and home end of that series. LSU wasn't a replacement for GT, it was a replacement for UGA. GT was not replaced... and you also removed a rotating SEC game most years. Your locked in schedule after losing/dropping GT and UGA was LSU (who was not on it before), Tennessee, Vandy, MSU, Auburn and most of the time Ole Miss. You'd occasionally drop ole Miss or go up to 7 games to put other SEC teams on the schedule.
UGA on the other hand had was Bama, Vandy, UF, Auburn, UK and GT with an occsional 7th game for other SEC teams. After GT left and Bama dropped them, it turned into Ole Miss, Vandy, UK, UF and Auburn with mostly 6 or occasionally 7 conference games to fit in other SEC teams.
UGA also tried to maintain 3 OOC rivalries through that period (with SC, Clemson and GT outside of the SEC).
Again, UGA didn't want to trade Bama for OM on our permanent schedule. Bama made that switch to get LSU. UGA was forced to partner with Ole Miss to get enough "every season" SEC opponents.

Why would UGA duck playing at A&M? It's not like it's hard to win there.

Did either Bama or Georgia try to actively schedule each other? Or what happened in 1992 that forced them to?

UGA and Bama played 8 times between 1966 and 1992. That's about normal for how often SEC teams that weren't permanent opponents would play each other in those days.
In 1992 the SEC added SC and Arkansas and went to east/west divisions. UGA and Bama played 6 times through A&M and Mizzou joining.
Since the 2012 expansion, UGA and Bama have played 7 times, but only 2 in the regular season. The other 5 games have been in SECCG games (3) or in playoffs (2). UGA and Bama have played twice in the regular season because they met at the front of the 12 season rotation schedule. UGA has only played once because they were at the end of the 12 season rotation, and that rotation doesn't end until 2025. LSU and A&M are the teams in those last 2 years that might not happen due to OU/Texas.

So Georgia had to find another SEC team to add because you already had a history of not playing SEC teams, while teams like Alabama were playing 8+ every year and still managed to add another SEC team despite not needing them to make the minimum?
And this is an argument against Georgia ducking good competition historically?
