Well, had Auburn won our rematch in Atlanta we’d have been there, so that’s not true.


Yeah but that game wasn’t close..

Well it was until the 4th. Regardless, the other teams you mentioned have actually won something in the 21st century.
Again, UGA is closer to Auburn and LSU than Bama.

Why is UF included? They barely beat a bad Miami team and should’ve lost to Kentucky. Bama, UGA, LSU, and auburn.





Why is UGA included? They haven't won shite in almost 40 years. And shite the bed everytime they have a chance to win the big one. Please name me one National Championship caliber game that UGA has wonce since January 1980.

How so? Recently bama and UGA have been to the playoffs. No other sec team has come close. Bama has blown out every team by double digits besides UGA. UGA is the only sec team to give bama an actual game. I think LSU has improved this year. I don’t think auburn has the offense to beat LSU, bama, or UGA. I do think auburn will beat Florida.

I haven’t mentioned any teams. Auburn loses an average of 5 games a year, Auburn is closer to Miss State than it is UGA in both talent and record.

Because we’re talking about who’s good now, not who was good a decade ago. Since smart’s been at UGA, UGA has been the second best team in the sec. Florida hasn’t been good since smart arrived. Squeaking by Miami and Kentucky doesn’t inspire confidence that they’ve changed.

Since Smart arrived at UGA the team has gotten much better no doubt. But, in the really big games Kirby along with UGA has shite the bed. Terrible fake punts, and basic choking is all Smart has accomplished. Print the shirts.

If we are so bad then what does that make AU. We have owned y’all for over a decade.

Basically it boils down to, Smart hasn’t beaten the best coach in the history of CFB for a Championship. It’s a pretty small list of coaches who have.

Kirby is 2-2 in his biggest games. Won a playoff game and an SECC and lost a playoff game and SECC. So that’s a bit of a false narrative unless you don’t consider playoff games or SECC’s big games, though I’m sure you would if Kirby would’ve lost to OU. He’s also accomplished more in 3 years than Mullen has in his entire career and is 2-0 vs Mullen.

That's all that matters, championships. Not "almost championships"

Not arguing that Kirby has accomplished more than Mullen. He definitely has. But, the fact remains Kirby shite the bed when it mattered the most.

You must hate Mullen then. He’s never even made it to an SEC championship, let alone the national championship.

Indeed. But not being better, on the biggest stage, than the best that ever was doesn’t mean Smart isn’t a good coach. Which seems to be the recent narrative.

You seem confused. UF has the longest winning streak in the SEC as of right now.

Mizzou has crapped the bed in the SEC championship game twice since the last time Flawda was there. And we own them

lol are you saying the playoff game vs OU didn’t matter? I’m sure you would say it was a big game if he lost it and it’s certainly bigger than any game UF has played in recently.

He got outcoached. If it’s still happening 5 years from now then he’s probably just another Dan Mullen or Gus Mahlzan and we’ll find someone else.

He's only had 1 full season at UF.
You must be upset evertime you have to ask your grandpa about 1980.
I've seen Florida win 3 National Championships. One in person.
