Don't compare these 2 please. Football shite talk is fun but for those of us who deployed to make a difference there it's a pretty shitty comparison.

In all seriousness, it's still a shitty comparison. This is meant to be funny comparing it to Texas. Maybe find a different forum to talk politics or foreign policy.

Or coaches and players leaving UGA 3 weeks before the season starts? Because the UGA media went full blown Jan “I ain’t not circle back girl” Psaki on both of them.
I mean they went from unsubstantiated rumors running wild to absolute fact that’s been known for days- months on both.

There is supposedly a rule against starting threads that are explicitly or implicitly political on this board, and a containment area on another board for discussing those sorts of things.
In practice, the person (people?) who owns the site has decided that it's more profitable to allow political discussions on the SEC rant board than it would be to moderate them out.

In this case, both UT's apply.

Texas was 110-19 from 2000-2009. That's like 40 years of wins for Kentucky.

You can't convince me that the right course of action on September 12th (or October 7th) wasn't decimating the entire country. You had effectively the entire United States rallied around one single cause, "innocents" (all of them easily considered enemy combatants, FYI) be damned, and instead of wreaking justified havoc you wound up dealing with all of these crybaby sadsacks twenty years later.

Why risk another life in saving a country that just don’t want to be saved. We gave them billions in funding and training. So when the shite hits the fan, they lay down their weapons and run. What are we supposed to do, go retake a country that their own leaders abandoned and risk thousands of military lives? It was a great idea when Trump met with them to start bringing home our soldiers and Biden continuing the exit, but hindsight 20/20...we were played. It hasn’t been our fight for over 20 years, yet for the sake of oil, we have been there. It will interesting to see if Biden’s stance on drilling opportunities at home changes.
But to answer the question...Texas.

Still a couple weeks to go. What else have the UGA staff and media lied to you about?

Are you claiming a second coach has taken a LOA? Someone is lying to you.
