.are now Bama's "Daddy" for lacking of a better term. Can we get real for a moment? If you want to puff your chest out and crow about -3 rush yards this, 28-7 that or how bad OU is going to kick arse, I have a number for you. Your teams are collectively 4-23 in the last 27 games played vs Alabama if my count is correct. I'd be embarrassed to be talking shite given that abysmal record.
Well I am going to look at Alabama's 11-3 record Objectively, I think that is a damn good record given the schedule Bama played. 10 P4 games in regular season (8 SEC + BIG(Wisconsin) + ACC (FSU) then UGA again in rematch game (always tough when 2 evenly matched teams) then on road in rematch vs OU (Bama won rematch). That's 12 P4 games out of 14, not sure what other school in the CFP has played that type of schedule.
So putting all the emotion aside, that is quite impressive by Kalen Deboer his staff, Simpson and the Bama team. Its kind of like the NFL now, you get in the playoff and your QB gets hot, you can make a run. Who knows, it could be a UGA vs Bama round 3 this year.

For me, Bama is only really meaningful when we play them. And the reality is we rarely do that.
The only reason Bama fans seem to have some animosity toward UGA is that some people view UGA as having passed Bama in the current SEC heirarchy. But there's no real history between the two teams.
We've had 8 regular season matchups in the last 25 years (5-3, in favor of Bama).
8 in the 25 years before that. (also 5-3 in favor of Bama).
It's just not a rivalry. We don't play often enough and we tend to both dislike many of the same opponents.
UGA just happened to be the team that moved up to challenge Bama as they were at the top with Saban as their coach. Bama fans don't like that a team is challenging them or may have passed them, but I think if they are honest with themselves they'll realize their feelings are more similar to what they felt with Florida when Spurrier was there then an actual hated rival.
For me a big game against Bama is important... butt no more important than a big game against Ohio State or LSU (when they're good).
It's just a big game.
If UGA makes it to the final this year and plays Bama, I'll want UGA to win. But not any more than if it were Oregon or Indiana we're playing.
Fair post and i appreciate your taking the time to actually break things down and not flame. I don't have the time at the moment to dissect everything for a point by point debate BUT I would say that I disagree with your take that UGA has surpassed Alabama on the current SEC Hierarchy unless you are strictly referring to this year. And even in this year, Bama, upon defeating UGA initially was ahead of them. Alabama was also ahead in 2023 when we were razor thin close to winning the Natty that year. I would say it's about even at the moment on the pecking order.

neither Alabama or OU were championship teams. If you think Alabama is a championship team, good luck.

2025 + 2021-2024 = UGA > BAMA

If that’s the direction you want to take this discussion, fine. Any idiot knows that’s true.
You seem unwilling to try to comprehend the point.

UGA fans have much animosity towards Bama as displayed by the posters’ reaction to the SECCG and the 2021 NC. Not to mention all the UGA talking heads over the past 5-8 years.
Sorry friend, Bama fans (not alters) have respected UGA for many, many years and you hear it in the Bama talking heads. You guys played AU and UT every year, so we were some of your biggest fans in 2 games every year. The animosity is very 1 sided.

It may not bother you, but Many bama fans do not like Bama being displaced by UGA as they have been.

Young must be below 25 yrs old or lack basic football understanding that things go in waves in CFB. Your 10yr head coach has a losing record to Bama’s 2yr coach, and an abysmal record to Bama’s previous coach. We are all laughing at UGA fans right now. You can tell a lot about someone after they finally win a game after many losses.

Bama has had UGA’s number consistently over the past decade or so, but Saban has a lot to do with that.
The last 2 seasons have had a couple of extremely close games and a beat down in terms of head to head. All that means is that they seem to be evenly matched teams overall in terms of play style and personnel.
What that doesn’t show is how the two teams have played against other teams. UGA seems to have the edge right now due to their consistency.

Not at all, you posted that UGA was irrelevant for 40 years. I just responded that LSU was irrelevant for 45. For some reason you don't seem to like that fact.

Many bama fans are not happy that uga has overtaken Bama overall over these past 5 seasons.
Based on this very post, you seem far more bothered by it than you would ever acknowledge

Debatable they are 1-1 and both in the top 8 teams left, basically a draw at this point.

Hmm, sure UGA won the 2 Natties but Alabama was 3-1 vs UGA in those years...kind of hard to really claim that as a resounding replacement of Bama at the top.

As of now, there is no debate as Uga is your 2025 SECC.
Bama needs to advance further than uga to even begin thinking about a debate.

2 national titles to ZERO is resounding evidence proving the point.

Ok, were you saying the same thing when Bama beat UGA in the SECCG before UGA returned the favor in the Natty? Doubt it.

Why? That's a bit absurd when Bama beat UGA earlier in the season in their own crib and moving forward from here, they are in an even position for advancement. It certainly doesn't merit your claiming that Bama has been supplanted this year in SEC Hierarchy.

Ok, but that's just one metric point you're using to make your claims...I went by head to head where it's 3-1 in the same span of time. If you want to look at that like there has been a replacement of who is at the top, fine but that's still very shaky when you take the whole picture. I'd say it's still pretty even, even cherry picking the most recent seasons.

I am certainly not bothered by the last 5 seasons. What a nonsensical assertion to make .

When bama was the secc in December, I didn’t have an argument against that. Kind of like how you have no argument against it now.

We have a better record, a higher rank, and the championship. It’s absurd for you to ignore that. As of now, there is nothing else to debate about for 2025.

By far the biggest and most important metric point. No other point comes close.
Any comparison of the “whole picture” goes in the favor of uga:
Overall wins, championships, draft picks, final ranks, advanced metrics.
It’s not as close as you want it to be.

Head to head is a VERY small cherry (that’s already included in the overall whole picture of 2021-2025).
