They are better than Charleston Southern, Middle Tennessee, ULM, and the the other cupcake OOC opponents you played this year, and the equivalents you (and the rest of the SEC) play every other year, just like I stated.
Try working on your reading skills.

Then that's a completely inane point. 2 or 3 out of 4 doesn't constitute 99.9% and the same thing could be said for Georgia themselves. Georgia schedules better OOC than Georgia! (If you just look at the best matchup versus the worst)

Other than Penn State (1 game better both years) and Wisconsin this year, Georgia Tech was better than the teams you played in those respective seasons. They actually beat Clemson and Virginia Tech head to head in all of those years.

Georgia tech does have arse national title more recently than UGA. So until UGA gets their shite together, rivalry denied.

That was such a weird time in CFB. Colorado and BYU also won Natties around that time.

UGA has won an Undisputed National Title since Tech won their last undisputed NC.
The Citrus Bowl does not crown National champions ha ha.

I'm sorry that you can't detect sarcasm.
My dad went to Georgia Tech, and they know they're second fiddle in the state. Just look at the series record.

Everyone knows Colorado shouldn't have split the title with tech. They lost a game, and were given give downs that would've been their second. Just because your boss had won a title more recently, doesn't mean you should be insecure

Actually they were in at least MOST of the years you mentioned.
2007:
Florida State 7-6
Ga. Tech 7-6
2008:
Clemson 7-6
Ga. Tech 9-4
2009
Virginia Tech 10-3
Ga. Tech 11-3
2013
Virginia Tech 8-5
Ga. tech 7-6
2010
Penn State 7-6
Ga. tech 6-7
2011
Penn State 9-4
Ga. tech 8-5
2014
West Virginia 8-5
Georgia Teach 11-3
And I quit after that. I would say Georgia tech stacks up pretty well against Alabama's OOC opponents. Mind you, I'm not complaining about Alabama's schedule. Your teams speak for themselves. I just don't care for trolls trying to make light of us playing a legitimate team year in and year out.

Then we agree. Both were fraudulent. So what's your point? As someone else pointed out, and I proved by posting the records, Georgia Tech is every bit as good a OOC opponent as Alabama usually plays. No knock against Alabama, just defending our scheduling that for some reason an Alabama fan wants to mock.

GT is better than VT or West Virginia. The rest I agree are better usually than Tech.

GTs national title isn't fraudulent. Colorados is because of the 5th down. GT beats some great teams that year and within the rules.
I'm glad we can all agree that GT is indeed a rival for UGA and worthy of it. We help UGA more times than not because GT does play competitive football. So does Bama. I've always admired Bama for opening up the season against a quality opponent. It's risky but it has paid dividends for Bama. Unlike for UGA (Boise St. Cough cough). Sorry UGA fans I had to. Unfairly or not :)

I love stats that prove a point. I'll bet every bitch in here arguing against it will just skip over your post.

So much fail. 2010, 2011, and 2012 were all decided by more than 7 points.

Georgia Tech doesn't have T shirt fans and is located in a pro sports city, so we do play second fiddle as far as fan support goes. The series is closer than most people think. Here is how it compares to other rivalries -
Texas - Texas A&M
76-37-5 (67.2%)
Georgia - Georgia Tech
65-40-5 (61.9%)
Clemson - South Carolina
67-42-4 (61.5%)
Florida - Florida State
34-24-2 (58.3%)
I realize that Texas doesn't play Texas A&M now, but Texas fans definitely considered A&M a rival even with the large series advantage. The UGA and GT series is historically as close as the USCe - Clemson and Florida - FSU series.
