Bielema during his time at Arkansas (a period of 5 years) blew 14 second-half leads. 12 of those games were SEC games.



Kirby Smart has lost 9 football games at UGA and 4 of them were games where he led in the second half. Granted, Kirby's talent base in the state of Georgia is so much better than Bert's was at Arkansas. This begs the question...Is Kirby really just Bert with recruiting?










Also, they share an affinity for fake punts. Bert may be better than Kirby at "timing" for fake punts, though.

Bert would have done a lot better if he could have recruited like Georgia can.

Hell his system was PERFECT for a SEC powerhouse, it just doesn’t work when your recruits are worse than most of the teams on your schedule.

I don’t recall Burt winning an SEC title or going to playoff. So, no.

His olines drove me crazy... Bragging about raw size when they would get their shite pushed in by smaller/stronger dlinemen who got easy leverage year after year.

Bert looks at Kirby like he looks at ribeyes. Outside of that, I don’t see any direct correlations

Kirby literally = Mark Richt at this point. Only difference is one won a Sugar Bowl the other the Rose Bowl.

It would take 3 mores Kirby's to make a whole Bert.

The difference is that Kirby is at Georgia and Bert was at Arkansas. Kirby had a laughably easy East and had to get two shots at Auburn to win the SEC last year.

Georgia doesn't even have a winning record vs. the West. Even with an elite roster, I don't think Kirby would survive too long in the West.

This. He wasn't the guy who could convince the elite athletes to come to Arkansas, but if he had been in a recruiting hotbed, the guy would probably have been really, really good.

You're such a complete joke.You REPEATEDLY said last year that CMR's players were the ONLY reason KIRBY won last year and he was nothing more than Muschamp 2.0

The EAST was vastly improved this year and we lost 14 starters including the best RB duo in NCAA history and we still won the East and will once again have a top 5 finish.

You also repeatedly daid there was " no way " we could replace Sony and Chubb and yet Holyfield and Swift put almost IDENTICAL regular season numbers.

God almighty,you have been proven to have absolutely NO credability when it comes to UGA and Kirby yet you continue to spew the same idiocy even after this year.Just STFU and admit how FAR off you were this year about what you thought would happen this year.
