Well, let's see.
2017-Auburn (Was a big game at the time)
2016-Clemson
2014-Ohio State
2013-Auburn SECCG got left out of the BCS
2010-Auburn
2008-Florida
I just scratched the surface. Would you like me to go into each season? I could say 2011 LSU. It was a big game at the time.

Football was a big deal to Mark but it is life or death to Kirby.

One of the top 3 teams in modern football history. And Auburn had just came off a 3-9 season the year before, with a different HC.
But we did drag our nuts across the team that ripped your hearts out Monday.

Kirby Smart is a winner and has a winner mentality. Kirby will be right back in the playoffs next year and for many years to come. He is the best young coach in college football in my opinion and he has Georgia clicking. They look just like Alabama on defense and a little better on offense this year for sure. Overlooking Kirby at Georgia will be a huge mistake, he is a great football coach and he will build a dynasty at Georgia much like what we have seen at Alabama in my opinion. Georgia has a very bright future with him at the helm.

Tua plays all 4 Quarters the score is likely 45-20 or so. I have no doubt eventually Alabama will be blown out in a game. It happens to everyone eventually.
I love hypotheticals. We have so much to base our guesses on.
If Tua had been you QB to start the game, we would have had a different game plan going into the game.
If you can guess at a score, then we will say we would have shut Tua out in that game with a different game plan. You make way too many wild unsubstantiated claims.

You can say that as many times as you want but it still isn't true.
On the football field which is what actually matters it absolutely is True. If you want to manufacture silly things like:
"Richt never ate as many hot dogs as Kirby"
"Richt never made 5.1 million in a season"
"Richt never beat Oklahoma"
or other such nonsense then I guess you are right. Bottom line is Richt in his tenure at Georgia was able to win the SEC and was able to finish #2 just like Kirby. You fired Richt because he didn't bring you a NC. Kirby is going to have to do that because that is what he was hired to do. Until he does he won't accomplish anything that Richt wasn't able to do.

Same could be said about us to you. of course you had injuries....kind of like Alabama did when you beat them.

Dude. You made the statement. You set the parameters. We showed you where you were wrong. Even if you want to disallow the Rose bowl Richt still never had a #1 recruiting class. There is no arguing that point.

Does it matter by how much?
Certainly. A blowout looks much worse than an OT loss because it is worse. Same applies to wins.
Kirby won 13 vs a tougher schedule in better fashion and has a better recruiting class.

Well, let's see.
Lord have mercy King Nick has more hardware in 11 years at Alabama than Dooley did in 25 at Georgia. Heck Saban had more hardware in 5 seasons at Alabama than Dooley did in 25 at Georgia. Vince "8-3" Dooley was the very definition of an underachiever.

It will be a little while, but we are heading in the right direction.
I've said it once and I'll say it again. I honestly do not believe another college team will be able to duplicate the run Alabama had made the last 10 or so years. What you have done has been special. If Kirby can get us a Championship or two in the semi-near future, then I think we will be happy.

The Rose Bowl statement alone is reaching and absurd.

Maybe he meant programs? In which case he'd be completely correct regardless of the definition of modern

Exactly my point, dude! You say very general statements and then you want to crawfish!
You said Nick Saban had not lost as many big games as Dooley. I'm not even a Dooley fan, but I can pick that argument apart. The reason Saban has lost more big games than Dooley is because he has been in more big games. We all know that. But be a bit more careful with you claims!
Nick Saban might be the greatest college football coach ever. People might argue with me, and they might be right. But I could say this with a clear conscience.
You seem to be arguing about things you THINK people are thinking and not what they really are thinking.
Now, you said nick Saban did not lose as many big games as Dooley. You are wrong. (I actually don't know if you are wrong, because I haven't gone through Dooley's entire career, but I would think Saban has lost more simply because he has coached in more)

#1 recruiting class. Done. You are wrong.
National Championship game. Another one.

I'm not sure. here is his statement:
One of the top 3 teams in modern football history.
I just want him to define the years, so I can go back and make an informed opinion. I don't want to go back and do a lot of research only to have him say the year I looked at doesn't count as "modern football history".
People mean so may different things when they say that. I'm not sure I would say 2013 FSU was great by any standard much less say they were a "top 3 team". Basically, what are the years he is referring to.

I don't think he was talking about programs because he was talking about how Auburn lost to them in 2013. I am pretty sure he was specifically talking about the 2013 FSU team.
