This is the post-Saban Bama fan, reduced to trolling undefeated teams that win both the SEC and national championship in dominating fashion. If Georgia hadn't played late double overtime game out west in 2017, while Bama relaxed in Atlanta against a relatively weak Clemson team (that lost to Syracuse), 2022 would've been Kirby's 3rd national championship.

Instead, that's when Kirby decided winning playoff games wasn't for him...... 2 blown ACL's & TCU, quite the shaky foundation for a "dynasty"

Yeah, Georgia lost all of our starting receivers early in the 2021 season, and we played the year relying heavily on freshmen and backups. In a 15 game season, depth and developing your backups is important. As for 2022, TCU was the final victim, but make no mistake it would've been you if you hadn't lost to Tennessee and LSU, two teams Georgia handled with ease. Let me guess, Bama had injuries, right?

Tcu was a damn good team that just ran into one of the best teams of the last 50 years.
They’ll take this to their grave as a copium, in reality they are damn lucky they avoided Saban and Bama in the SECCG or else that arse would’ve been smacked like always. Then they lucked out with TCU getting in even after they lost the Big 12 title game to Oklahoma state
That natty game is the equivalent of beating Tulane last year
It’s a huge asterisk natty that nobody mentions

Copium, that's exactly what I hear coming from fans of the legacy champs that haven't won a non-asterisk national championship in almost 10 years. In 2020, Ohio State played a 6 game regular season that started in late October, where the two best teams they played were Indiana and Northwestern. Notre Dame played a crap 10 game ACC schedule, lost 34-10 to Clemson, who played an equally crap ACC schedule, and still made the playoffs. Now there's some playoff credentials to hang your hat on. That's an entire asterisk season.This post was edited on 8/16/26 at 6:24 pm

There was no doubt a huge talent difference, but TCU had 12 of their 22 starters drafted into the NFL.
Five of those were drafted in rounds 1 to 3. They weren't without talent.
Don't know about the Michigan team TCU played. Certainly some of the same players started in that semi and also the national title game of the next season.
But Michigan had 14 starters drafted and three still playing college football that could be drafted in their CFP NCG game.

I still don't understand how we lost to Bama the previous year. Obviously in our heads.
Our front seven is not only still in the NFL, Most of them are on second contracts and starting.
Only one of their Olinemen on that team was drafted. He was a first round draft pick, but a breatwriter said last week Evan Neal was currently practicing with the two after practicing with the 3s at the start of camp and that it's "now or never for the former first round pick'. Crazy that we couldn't get better pressure on Bryce.

Practiced for and played a normal 12 game schedule against normal sized rosters in normal stadiums on a normal timeline. Every other team practiced for and played 12 games too, like every other year, so there was a normal amount of data to evaluate teams for the conference title games and playoffs. In the playoffs we faced a 12 win Michigan team and a 13 win Alabama team. Won the championship despite plenty of attrition, as happens every season. When fans talk about injuries, what they mean is, "We lost", because at the end of 15 games (or even by the end of fall camp) every team has signficant injuries. The champion is the one that wins despite the injuries.
In other words, in 2021 and 2022, the records and the rankings meant something so the outcomes mean something. As opposed to 2020, which was an extreme aberration and a joke and everybody knew it. There was no off-season of preparation. Players opted out, or sat because of a positive test or a cough, teams opted out of practices and games. Conferences opted out of half a season. There were minimal inter-conference games to evaluate which conferences were best, or even functional. Stadiums were at 20% capacity and the crowd factor was minimal. Can't rewrite that history now and call it normal.

a very bad kick. As many Buckeye stickers as on his helmet, he can kick better.
The pressure of the moment was too much for him and many kickers.
Our kicker could also kick better than he did in that game.

A 50 yarder to send your team to the national championship game. I agree. Should've been a layup.

Michigan gave away the semi-final game like 12 different times. I've never seen a team so determined to throw a game away.

Holy shite, this thread devolved into a bunch of complaining and arguing about nothing.

Word on the street is they found out Michigan was stealing signals.

Here’s the dirty little secret…
Georgia beats that Michigan team by at least 20. The Peach Bowl was the real natty that year.

I don’t think it matters either way, dude was a good kicker but with that much pressure on the moment it’s a tough kick from any distance. I feel like even good kickers are a coin flip in that scenario. I remember the Vikings losing an nfc championship to the falcons on a fg that woulda clinched the game. Gary Anderson, multiple time pro bowler hadn’t missed a kick the entire season that year shanked it. Instead of a ten point lead falcons tie game win in ot
