So says the person posting in an online forum built on interest in college football.

Do you actually believe the drivel you post on a regular basis or is it just trolling?
Also, do always act so bitchy or is it just in reaponse to the title game - because these excessive random posts trying to convince yourself you dont care about or are over the title game really give off the opposite impression
Those are honest questions btw.

Are you sure that Alabama isn't the Villanova of College Football?
Think about it

I wanted to go to a school that was good academically, good athletically, had a good Greek life, and was located in a great town. Georgia has all of that. Alabama doesn't.
A Wharton Degree means a lot more than your UGA degree even with Georgia being better than them in 3 outta the 4 you mentioned

hat's why I would rather go to a school that is well-rounded, with academics being an important factor.
If I could do it all over again I'd try harder and go to an an Ivy or a school like JHU or UChicago.
None of them are Great Athletically.
And I don't think a good portion have Great or Greek life at all.
And some are in some not so great areas.
But those Degrees are far better and open many more doors. Especially if trying to work on the Buy Side.

You'd actually be surprised.
But yea, not on the level of Bama.

Villanova's last 5 recruiting classes. Wonder how many football teams would win a natty with these numbers.
#Villanova (avg. 37.2)
2017: 28
2016: 45
2015: 29
2014: 48
2013: 36
Ehh, basketball is different though.
3 outta the 5 starters were top recruits (one will be a lottery pick)

This is a misrepresentation. Most if not all of those classes only had 1-3 players in it. Divincenzo was Nova's 6th man and he was a top 150 4*. They had at least 2 guys in Brunson and Spillman that were top 5 prospects.

Well, technically the most important thing is being a good school academically. And Alabama, well.....
Umm UA is a much better academic university than Georgia. Alabama's schools in the whole state do much better than the schools in Georgia. Not sure what you're point is here.

Add Mikal Bridges in there, he's a lottery pick.
Josh Hart (NBA) and Kris Jenkins (guy that hit the game winner) top 50 players.
Ryan Arcidiacono top 50.
Jay Wright is a great coach, to say they didn't have talent is not true.

yeah they have talent all over the place. The thing that makes them different is they sign top talent and keep it from transferring so they never have to go out and recruit more than 3 guys.

Alabama fans are way more threatened by Georgia than vice versa. It's an interesting phenomena. Ever since we stole the top recruiting class distinction away from Bama y'all have been acting threatened as frick. Tons of hate directed towards UGA by your entire fanbase.
The irony of this post coming in this thread by this poster is incredible. This thread was originally about some asinine Alabama/Villanova comparison until you made it about your insecurity with Georgia football.

No one wants to transfer from there.
Rabid Fans, great school academically in a great conference and they're always competing for a conference title.

If we're talking total number of NCs, then LSU has the most at 48 followed by Arkansas at 45.
But not having toive in Louisiana is easily worth at least four championships. So I'm going to use Alabama logic and say that we have the most.

That isn't really true ranking wise. UGA is a good school, not a top flight school but is certainly viewed as better than UA from an outside perspective. Overall they are pretty comparable.
The reality is that it doesn't really matter to much of a degree. The quality of an education falls 90% on the shoulders of the student and quality teachers / programs are found in most large universities. Alabama offers a whole lot education wise to those students who want to pursue it.
Personally I really don't think its advisable to go out of state from a financial perspective unless you are getting essentially a full ride or are going to a top flight university, which certainly does carry with it name recognition and benefits. If you are in a state with no good universities i guess it would make sense as well.

They're both the same.
As are all of us in the SEC.
