re: Who is more likely to win their division in 2018, UGA or Bama?

Never asked for validation. Asked anyone willing to put forth an argument of who would be more likely to win their division. If you'll notice, I actually said Bama was likely the better team, but that UGA was in a weaker division. That's what makes it not an easy question to answer.

You seem to have a problem with the fact UGA will be a heavy favorite this year. Do you have a reason to think that shouldn't be? Express it. You may make some valid points.

I think you’re missing the point, I have no qualms with Georgia being the favorite in the east. You guys are the favorite and should be, my problem is Georgia fans thinking there program is equivalent to Bama. You guys walk around with Bama’s arrogance and you have a Tennessee like trophy case. It’s annoying and I want too bitch about it. Feel free to ignore me.

It would not be implausible to see Bama play LSU in one of those slobber knocker defensive games, where one mistake sets up a hard to come by TD.

We always win those though.

Let’s touch on the positives. Tua is back and it’s more likely he improves rather than declines. If he declines, well, Hurts is still here. He’s won a lot of games. The 3 five star freshmen receivers will be sophomores. The five star freshman running back will be a sophomore. 4/5 of the offensive line returns. The starting running back returns. Alabama is going to be frightening for the next two years. Last years group of freshmen is absurd

Again, my post says at the start that Alabama is the better team or at least it makes sense to think that way.

Again, the reason I thought it was an interesting question is that both will be heavily favored to win their division. While one is considered the better team by most, the other is considered to be in the weaker division by most. So again, I never said we were equal to Bama in this post. The points I've made about UGA having a better chance have to do with UGA's gap with the rest of the division being wider than Bama's gap with their division. That's completely different than saying UGA is greater than or equal to Bama.

I will say this though, historically and even in recent history, UGA is nowhere near Alabama.

That being said, the talent gap is closing comparing the rosters. For the last 7 to 8 years, there has been only one team in the conference that when their ones go against their two in practice, their ones may well be facing better talent than they face on most Saturdays. We are about to see two teams operating that way.

For those who want to doubt Kirby, it was one season and you can look at it that way. However, there are plenty of reasons to have little doubt as well. My guess if UF or UT were coming off the recruiting season we just had coupled with the football season, they wouldn't be doubting very much.

Since Billy left we’ve been to the elite 8 and the 2nd round. When’s the last time that happened for Georgia? Yes if you take out our best two coaches our trophy case looks pretty dim. Couldn’t you say that for most programs? How does Georgia’s history look without Dooley and Richt? I was just trolling you with the Georgia sports man stop taking everything so seriously.

We'd still have Butts, a few SEC championships and one disputed Nchampionship when there was no poll really looked at as any more important than another. The AP and UPI gained clout and sorta argued since they were the end all in the sixties on, it was the same in the forties too.

In the past decade UGA has been a better football program than UF. Historically, you have the edge in NCs by one or two depending how you want to look at it. We'd have the edge in everything else. I'm assuming you would probably want to take a random set of years though, like 1990- present right? ;-)

You belittle the Braves there, but Cox and the Braves were no different than UF and Spurrier. SEC titles and NL titles virtually the same, one national/world championship. And I'm assuming you don't think SOS was a loser.

What can I do to make you stop telling me about the history of your program? I seriously could not care less. I was just making the point that you Mutt fans should be a little more humble, because in all reality your program isn’t all that awesome. If you don’t want to take my advice that’s your prerogative. It is what it is.

Dudes a lost cause I hope he’s on his meds when Georgia inevitably falls on their face.

That is a hilarious way to frame your argument and even then it's 4 - 4.

Head to head; UF 6- UGA 4

6 - 4, 1 Championship to 0. Look, if you want to sit at the big boy table you have to stop getting runner up prizes because no one gives a frick.
