Then why in the world would you even bring up rankings and power rankings in this discussion? What point were you trying to mek? Whatever it was, it obviously failed.

You went from a 3-4 base defense....to a 3-4 base defense. And very similar offenses as well in terms of the type of players you want and would recruit. IIRC, didn't the defensive transition at Georgia happen under Richt as he changed at one point?

Our offense and defense was drastically different. The philosophy was drastically different. Culture, mind set...everything. If you think Kirby Smart and Mark Richt are similar then I don't know what to say.

Yes, you beat the team that had a major injury in the rematch. I'm sure that's just a coincidence
Not at all...just like it wasn't a coincidence that we had major injuries in both games. Alabama fans seem to think only their injuries count, though.

You lost in the playoffs that year....

Arre you saying Alabama won't lose this year? Good luck with that.

Very big difference between contact behind the LOS and contact 5 yards past it with a head of steam. Thats where the LOS comes into play. If only you understood the importance of LOS.

I am glad you brought this garbage time play up, as it helps prove my point about you exaggerating his impact on the game. This is all starting to ring a bell. You made these same dumb arguments in the not so distant past.

I don’t hate Alabama; just their a-hole fan base.

Because they think that winning an insignificant game means anything. Alabama is still in the playoffs.


And I rest my case re. their a-hole fanbase. Only Alabama fans can make the SEC and National Championship games insignificant because they say so.

Seems like I remember them saying the complete opposite when they didn’t lose those games, though.

Oh, and the playoffs are insignificant when you’re only going to be one and done.

I was pointing out people aren't able to understand concepts and used that as an example.

I never said Kirby and Mark were the same or anything of the sort.

What I said was the type of players they recruited and the systems they ran were the same and/or pretty similiar. Thus the transition time is minimal.

If we had hired Kirby after Saban for example, there isn't much transition because they both like the same kind of players.

I recognize not all players are equally important to their teams and some injuries are bigger deals than others. Furthermore, as far as the games themselves goes injuries are part of the game and don't matter. It's only when you start trying to take extra meaning beyond the game that it matters.

Which is again, like understanding the difference between power rankings and season rankings.

Again, I just don't know how you are coming up with these things.

I understand it, I do. Y'all were denied the schadenfreude. You got the ice cream sundae, and it was delicious, but it would have been a little better with the cherry on top


Bama is a mentally defeated fan base. Your cockiness and "give a damn" has gone way down as UGA has surpassed your program, but it doesn't make it any less enjoyable for us.

Guy had over 200 yards of offense. I'm quite sure it wasn't like Auburn was airing it out that he scored.

Getting hit behind the LOS makes it very hard to gain yards.

Once again, exaggerating his impact on the outcome as 52% came in 4th Q garbage time.

You are all over the place.

quote:

You certainly insinuated that their offenses and defenses were similar. Which is totally false. Just because two teams use the same base 3-4 system (or 4-3) does not make them similar in any way except that they line up similarly. How they stunt, blitz and cover in the secondary can be totally different. If they were all the same, there would be no need to change coordinators. Any time you change coaches things are going to be drastically different.

quote:

No. There would not be much change because Kirby ran the system Saban told him to run.

quote:

You got me there, because i have no earthly idea what you are trying to say. However, yes, I recognize that Williams and Metchie were central to Alabama's offense and was sorely missed. I also acknowledge that it had an affect on the game.
What Alabama fans can't seem to grasp is Williams had 65 receiving yards in the 2nd quarter against us, and 40 of those came on the play he was injured. And...the score was 3-3 when he was injured. It's not like he was lighting it up.

quote:

Again, I just don't know how you are coming up with these things.
Then go back and read what you have been saying. You wanted to compare this year DeBoer with second year Kirby Smart. Secod year Kirby Smart took us to the National Championship game and you tried to belittle that by saying we got beat. Well....Chances are DeBoer will get beat, too.

And we are talking about Kirby Smart's second year as a head coach period. DeBoer is in his 11th year as a head coach and 4th at a P4 school. He has a bit more experience, so he should, theoretically do better.

Dont forget Williams played more in the game than ACL recovery George Pickens

Probably for the same reason why 'Bama dislikes OU

We are 5-1 vrs 'Bama, 2-0 in the last thirteen months... getting ready to be 3-0 next Friday,.

Heck even 'Bamas Goat.. Saban could only muster a .500 record..1-1. vrs OU.

Heh 'Bama... just when you think you are the big fish.. a bigger one shows up. Ain't that a bitch.

A RB's effectiveness largely depends on blocking more than anything else:

AU won the LOS in game 1, UGA won the LOS in game 2.

This is an irrelevant distinction either way, totally besides the point about "impact on outcome".

The point is that most of his production came AFTER the outcome was already decided, which proves my point about his exaggerated impact on the outcome by the most insecure Bama fan.

So you are claiming he had a bunch of rushes for negative yards?

You mean a running back beat your defense down all game long and got a bulk of yards at the end?

Seems pretty normal to me. That's kind of the secret to running backs. They get their yards per carry mostly on a few plays, often after putting in the work on previous plays.
