I'm sure you have a headline about Alabama's health. But "it makes no sense!" Do you think before you hit the post button, or do you just hit random keys and hope nobody with a critical brain reads them?


I do have headlines about Bama's health, or the lack of it, with how Bama injuries played a key role in the game. It makes sense since there were many injuries to starters. It would make absolutely no sense for a Georgia writer to post an article about Georgia's health and injury luck if they were decimated.


Speaking of decimated, you can post the Georgia starters on the injury list anytime you like. Not doing so pretty much decimates your argument.

They'd have to fire Davis, Herbie, Fowler, SVP, Blackledge, McDonough and even Finebaum. Pollack said nothing different than they did, Saban just wasn't sitting beside them.

And DP was not talking directly to Saban when he said it. Just giving his opinion.

If you had anything you wouldn't need to try to explain why there isn't anything.

You don't need backups when your starters aren't injured. That is the topic.

Here it is, folks. This is the statement that proves this guy has no idea about the importance of depth on a football team.

Alabama lost in part due to lack of depth. When their starters went down, they had no one to replace them.

Georgia had depth and could fill gaps without missing a beat.

Georgia had depth. Alabama had none.

Georgia 33. Alabama 18.

Every team needs backups to step up when something happens to the starters. Sometimes they step up, sometimes they don’t.

Bama lost because the starters went down. The backup's competency is a different topic.

You didn't need depth due to the health of your team.

Why does it bother you so much that Georgia won due to injury luck? It's still a win.

When all you have is some half arse article from some clueless idiot, well, you know your team lost.

Your backups just weren’t as good as UGA’s backups.

We know why it bothers you so much that Georgia won due to overcoming bad injury luck better than bama did.

It’s still a bama loss.

Here's a headline
Georgia Sites Hire Clueless idiots Says Georgia Fan

"We know why it bothers you so much that Georgia won due to overcoming bad injury luck better than bama did."

I guess that's why the headlines the next day were about Bama injuries, not Georgia's.

"Alabama would have won the last 3 National Championships if Metchie and Williams weren't hurt."

Jameson Williams was suspended for gambling kinda makes you go hmm was he really hurt in the championship game or did he just have a lot of money on Georgia.

That is what the loser earns:

Your very own one sided, Excuse making article by some random dude no one knows or respects that panders to the losers + tears

This is what the winner earns:

The championship trophy + bragging rights

I don't accept your premise but for the sake of argument let's say I do. Coach Bryant said that to win a natty you had to have 3 things: injury luck, schedule luck, and at some point in the year winning a game you probably should have lost. Those things pretty much always ring true. My point is having injury luck is a good thing, not a disparaging thing. We had better injury luck than Texas in the 2009 natty, that isn't a knock against either team.

Injuries are part of the game, it's not unreasonable to discuss them. We had the better team for the SEC championship game but you had the better team for the natty game and won it all. If Stetson had been hurt for that game it would have been bad injury luck and would have been a legitimate topic of conversation, but if we won under those circumstances it wouldn't bother me to talk about it. Congrats on back to back, that's a hard thing to do.

I agree. The topic is how they earned it.

Another example of your complete lack of understanding about quality depth in college football.
Do you think starters play every snap? Breaking news-- they don't. Quality depth on a roster allows your starters a chance to rotate in and out. When you have quality backups, there's not a significant drop off when your starter takes a break. Equally important, what happens when your starters rest??? It reduces the risk of injury. More snaps, more risk of injury. When your starter is playing fatigued, more risk of injury.

Alabama lacked quality depth in 2021 resulting in injury to starters and a drop off when those starters went down.

Georgia was built for the long run. They had quality depth and took advantage when the wheels came off of Alabama in the 4th quarter of the national championship game.

I hope that all makes sense to you. It probably does and you'll probably still continue to argue your same dull idiotic points.
