They're back to back national champions and on the cusp of a three-peat yet when the talking heads speak about SEC football they never seem to get the respect they deserve. Georgia has become a great program I don't get it.



Also why can't LSU ever go back to back?

Honestly, it appears to me Georgia gets a lot of respect nationally.

They aren't disrespected, just despised. If they ever go back to mediocrity, everyone will be okay with them again.

Because it’s fricking boring to constantly hear how great programs are. They did the same to USC when they were going for their three peat, just waiting for the loss.

But that’s not why you made this thread.

Are you watching the same talking heads that I am? Georgia gets a ton of respect.

I dont think they are disrespected. What makes you say that? There sure as shite isn’t as much college football coverage on ESPN anymore during the week, so maybe that’s the perception? I think they’ve gotten plenty of respect. I don’t think Ohio State is a better team, but I understand why they are ahead of us at the moment. Hope Dawgs are up to the challenge tomorrow against Ole Miss.

Their fans literally walk around at ballgames barking at each other.

As an outside fan I don’t despise them at all. I respect the hell out of them.

That's simple. They haven't played anyone.

LSU has won 2 nattys this year so that’s back to back in the same year. Why can’t Bama be relevant in more than one sport and do what LSU has done? You flippin moron

I’ve been to church in Alabama and some grown men would literally would wear Alabama gear to it

Why are you asking stupid questions like you don’t know how it works?

I often don't agree with the OP, but he's correct here; in part, the LSU part was just a troll.

It's not a bad sign. It's just a realization that UGA isn't a blue blood. Also, the anti-SEC bias is natural for a $$$-oriented approach. Football is dying outside of SEC, TX, and OU country. It needs a broad national resurgence.

The B1G has its usual horse in the OSU. The media is propping up the perpetually propped-up UM. The absolute travesty is out west. This, "let's give the PAC a great, albeit undeserved, send-off," is ridiculous. Oregon is good, but has beat no one. The traction they got out of a blowout of Utah with a backup QB is ridiculous, let alone a close loss vs a team with a schedule full of close wins. For fricks sake, Arizona made a huge jump into the polls as a 3 loss team. It's just dumb.

Never thought I'd see a 1 loss SEC in need of help to get into the top 4. Or, a two time and undefeated defending champ slip to #2. That happened to Bama in the 60s, but that was tied to the systemic racism across the South (to which I'm not denying) that Bama was held as the culprit for all in the medias eyes.

But now, it's genuinely almost disrespectful. It's the conference that built modern football TV contracts, facility standards, salary and TV $$$.

As a Northerner (New York), I have always thought Georgia was disrespected in every sport because they were considered one of the worst of the slave states so the MSM didn't want to give them credit for anything good they did.

He got the Northerner part right but not the Jewish part. Northerners hate the SEC because it is made up of southern slave states.
