I have a serious question for Auburn/Georgia fans (no flame)

What has it been like to root for such a roller coaster football program the past few years? One year yall go 3-9, the next, you're in the national championship. Seriously, would you rather the jumpiness instead of straight 10-3/9-4 seasons?

2008: 5-7
2009: 8-5
2010: 14-0
2011: 8-5
2012: 3-9
2013: 12-2 (NC appearance)
2014: 8-5
2015: 2-1

With the way things are going, yall will probably end the year 5-7, and then make the playoffs next year.

Edit/
For Georgia, would you exchange your past 10-15 years of solid (but somewhat unspectacular) teams for losing seasons and national championships?

Speaking as an LSU fan (since our success has been relatively the same) I think I like the consistency more than the jumpiness. However, I do feel empty when I think of all of our success since 2007 but no national championships to show for it.

Jumpiness if we win a trophy. I'd take our last ten years all day over someone like UGA that's been fairly consistent, but hasn't won anything.

You need to get Georgia fans opinions in here for the other side.

Damn, so after this season, Auburn will have missed a bowl in 3 of the last 8 seasons?

Sucks.

I think LSU is the other side.

We've both won 2 SEC titles, 1 national title, with another national championship appearance.

The only difference is that LSU is a way more consistent program. Because we have better players.

Well we'd clearly trade places with LSU who has both hardware and consistency, but I'd take hardware over consistency.

I just want to see Auburn have the type of defense i grew up watching before i die. I'm tired of watching teams anally rape our defense.

As to the roller coaster, it is what it is. The highs are more enjoyable and the lows are more endurable.

If that's what you think, then this is a stupid question. I'd think he's clearly referring to someone like UGA.

Honestly, I would rather be consistently in the conversation each year because frankly, whether your team wins a national championship or not, the season pretty much ends the same, starting over for next season.
