LSU would have easily won the East the last two years.

Aren't the "excuses" he is talking about the issues that you are talking about?
All he is doing is pointing out the issues and reasons we lost. He is calling them issues and you are calling them excuses, but they are essentially the same thing.

There is some sort of code on this board that says if you lose a game you cannot point out contributing factors as to why your team lost. Those are excuses.

However, if the winner or noninvolved party points them out it is okay, because now they are called issues.

Now you are deflecting. It was a legit question.

If saban can’t do it, why expect Kirby to do better than him?

No you wouldn't have. That's dumb to even say. You are basing that on LSU beating Georgia, but that game takes on a whole different meaning if we were in the same division.

Besides, Florida beat LSU. Your cross divisional opponent would probably have been Texas A&M, and now you have two losses and we still have one.

As for 2017...who knows, really? Georgia had a better team in 2017, and I would say LSU's team was worse.

Thing is, you can't just say something would have happened and expect everybody to blankly nod their heads in agreement....especially when nobody knows.

You don’t understand anything on a deeper level. The poor representation of Georgia fans in this thread is funny.

Nobody is saying Georgia’s program is in bad shape. But in New Orleans, you all were were outclassed. If you want to say you all were still licking your wounds, fine, but that is a poor reflection on the coaching staff.

I have no idea why it’s so painful for you all to admit this. Then you hide behind some lame statement about understanding the game on a deeper level.

LSU is much closer to winning a NC than UGA.

Thankfully, You have proven otherwise by trying to discount the importance of mentality, availability of players, and availability of coaches in the game of football.

According to your logic losing to a team like ULM in a coach's first seasons means they are just like Saban as well.
Am I doing it right

Apparently saban didn’t teach Kirby how to coach an average team into being badass in year 1 either.

Why do you expect Kirby to be better than saban in these areas? You are avoiding the question again.

Who said Bama was unmotivated against Utah.
Utah has the best bowl record the last 20 years. At least they did. Don't know what it is at the current.

You are making an assumption.
Utah was undefeated that year and beat some quality teams in 2008.


I wasn't in the locker room before that game neither was I in the locker room before the Sugar Bowl this year.
I have no idea how motivated Georgia really was.


Like I said I saw an issue wifh Xs and Os more than anything.
Georgia isn't the same team when they cannot run the football.

Watch Clemson.
When they had issues running the ball early against Alabama they went to the pass and opened up Alabama in the back.

Football is all about opposing your will.
Georgia wasn't able to. This isn't the first time.


Why do you think LSU brought in Joe Brady?
LSU knows that they have all the weapons at WR but they don't use them.
Same with Georgia. Georgia should have won that game but didn't.
It wasn't about motivation it was about playcalling.



Same with Alabama and Oklahoma.

Don't you think Alabama's offense and defense changed since then.
It wasn't just Oklahoma it was Ole Miss and Texas A&M.

Read this back to yourself and see if it seems contradictory.

Clemson didn't impose their will in the running game. They have Trevor Lawrence and sick playmakers on the outside that more than made up for that.

Playcalling complaints are about 99% just easy targets for armchair QBs. "That play didn't work. What a shitty playcall." Any idiot can do it, which is why it's so popular.

You have Jake Fromm a supposed top 10 pick.

When teams are playing with box safties and shooting tbe gaps you go downfield.

Coaches will always attempt to defend the big play once you show it.

Don't bother on this site. Texas fans in real life respect UGA.

He is not that yet. He played poorly against both LSU and Texas. The LSU game in particular was horrendous. He missed three walk-in TDs iirc.

ETA: UGA actually did run the ball effectively against LSU until it became clear that Fromm didn't have it and was no real threat to push the ball downfield effectively.

Now we are getting somewhere.

Motivation never determines winners.
If that was the case you would see a lot of FCS teams winning.
No FBS team is motivated to play McNesse State.
