How does this thread get under Texas fans' skin? We don't care about Arkansas. I have respect for the passion of their fans, and boy do they have a lot when it comes to us, but other than that I don't have a lot of feelings towards them. I have a little gratitude for helping to breakup the SWC, because we needed to get out of there. They helped break the seal.

And you're replying to a Georgia fan. Maybe I'm missing something?

8 page thread speaks for itself.

Our Basketball and Baseball program shits on Georgia’s. More than makes up for our dark days in football.

We’ve been to the sweet 16 4 times in 5 years and the elite 8 twice in that span and you want to kick us out of the conference? Not even going to talk about the Omaha trips.

Rich thread talking about Nattys when UGA was the biggest choke artist under achieving program until Kirby.

UGA is an hour from a top 5 metro and can hardly field a competitive baseball and basketball program. You had to hire a guy from Arkansas to finally do that in baseball.

Opie is a hack.

Their next move is to try to use chicken money to buy Kelly and the LSU roster, wear their skin, and be LSU 2.0

That will fix it!

Because it’s not even debatable that Missouri delivers no value whatsoever.



One of their posters said they are depositing Large amounts of cash to this conference, in this thread. All while sitting outside the top 25 with THAT schedule.

But what about that ONE Baseball championship Georgia won 35 years ago? LOL.

I'll give you football, yeah, we suck.

I'm too lazy to go back past 2020 in basketball but 2 elite 8's and 2 sweet 16's.

Baseball, yup, no natties. Won SEC tourney in 21. Won the league in 21 and 22. Plus 2 CWS appearances.

Not trying to be a dick.

Sad that you have nothing to brag on except for your football team because the rest of your athletic department is trash. But you knew that.

Arkansas and S. Carolina are very valuable to the SEC. Without them, the SEC Championship game and the money/interest it generates wouldn't have been possible.

I was around in the SWC days and remember the same fluff.

Did not buy it then, do not buy it now.

You don’t have anything to brag about. Arkansas never wins championships in anything.

Valuable? If you consider programs as an asset, not simply a sum of big three titles alone, then Arkansas hitting above our weight class.

A simple Google search of value of SEC programs yields multiple rankings showing Arkansas more valuable than at least 6 SEC programs, 4 of which are founding members.

Maybe a better question is why those programs are just sitting back cashing checks and not pulling their weight? How does lil ole Arky do it?

Georgias athletes are among the best in the world. Our fans are fans. They don’t claim to be able to bench press a semi or kick 55 yard field goals.
