Yes, that's exactly what Texas fans are arguing on this thread.

Your take on this game isn’t exactly a smart one


Because Texas beat us and you are too big of a bitch to just accept it? They beat UGA up and down the field, which game did you watch?

Of course because motivation and focus can’t possibly be an issue for a playoff game vs an elite team. There is a reason Roquan didn’t sit out the rose bowl like deandre baker sat out the sugar bowl


This is a silly arse excuse our fan base keeps using because we got beat. Cute the way you jab at Baker in the process. Baker shut his side of the field down for two seasons and ungrateful “fans” like yourself continue to complain about him taking a basically meaningless game off.

Fortunately, in the grand scheme of things, that bowl, like everything else that isn't the CFP anymore, means frick all.


It is part of the product that you're trying to sell kids. "We're a playoff team, Woof!"

I think Georgia has one more year to at least get to the Playoff before everyone sort of realizes that Kirby is just a more wasteful Richt (look at his recruiting budget lol).

You end the year on 4th and 11 and then Texas manhandling all of your 5-stars with much less talent -- then follow it up coming up short again the next year.

I'm glad we have a rebuilding excuse. A real rebuild.

LOL..
2017 - CFP appearance and National Title game appearance.
2018 - Finish 5th in final CFP standings before bowls... ie. one spot outside
2019 - Somehow we are in "Must make playoffs or we are terrible"

Good work Agent Straws... Never stop never stopping...

And you sound like a guy who has little critical thinking skills. I couldn't care less about making excuses for Georgia, I simply know the better team lost. If you don't think that happens in football then I guess you don't remember 2011.

And there's good excuses and bad excuses and there's some damn good excuses for why we lost to AnM.

Why? They've been a massive underachiever for 50 years. College football seemed to do just fine. They had one little stretch with VY and Colt. Other than that, what exactly is it that college football is lacking if the Longhorns are their normal overrated selves?

55...one NC in 40 years with all these supposed advantages we keep hearing about - money, Texas brand name, Texas high school recruiting.

So, yes, massive underachiever.

We just got beat, that’s it. Why do twits like yourself have find a reason for it? Sometimes it just isn’t in the cards. Texas isn’t a push over and here you are acting like UGA lost to a JV squad.

Which is insane. There isn't a college football team in the country that hasn't slipped up to a lesser team at some point.

That said, Texas outplayed us. The game was not as close as the score indicates it was. I always thought we could get back in the game, but didn't really feel like there was a shift in momentum in our favor.
In short, they did what they needed to do to win and we didn't. Unfortunately, it reminded me of the LSU game.

Texas beat us 28-21. No one is disputing that.

Define "Silly".

Why are you so offended at me discussing other important factors you are unwilling to accept?

Unless I missed something we did make the playoffs. Florida certainly can't make that a selling point.

Now you just come off as a jealous whiney person. He made the playoffs and the national Championship game. That's not too bad.

Now tell us about Florida and how you manhandled teams with equal talent.

Kentucky beat Florida.
You barely beat a lackluster Miss. State team that lost 5 games.
You got shellacked by Georgia.
You got shellacked by Missouri.
You barely beat South carolina.

So, maybe Florida fans should take a more critical look at their own shortcomings and failures and quit obsessing over georgia'd shortcomings.

quote:

I'm glad we have a rebuilding excuse. A real rebuild.
And yet the last two years your fans and your team come out of our game insisting they had the better team.
Now it was a rebuilding year?

Jab? Far from an insult to him. It was a simple statement of fact, and the point went way over your head.

Why was it meaningless? Why did Baker and Tucker both skip the game rather than work for UGA one more time?

Agreed. At halftime you knew Georgia was capable of coming back, but it sure didn't feel like it. I was sitting near a bunch of GA fans at the game and that first half was a nightmare for them.

Exactly. Injuries, refs, weather, luck, kickers, a lack of focus are all real factors when it comes to results.

Oddly, this pisses Redfive off for some reason.

More then anything I think it was the lack of focus. The air just seemed out of a pretty good Georgia team. You had one of those dreaded going through the motions games.
