And that would tell us that Alabama is the best team in the SEC. Period. It doesn't make the rest of the west better.
The problem is it just hasn't been Alabama that won those SEC Championships. LSU and Auburn won some also. Georgia is the lone East team to win one in that time frame. What does that tell us about the East and the West?

I as a loyal UGA fan never overlook any SEC opponent and neither should the team. If you lose focus, Vandy can beat you and hurt your season.

Arkansas was 9-3 coming into that game not 6-6. Including a win over LSU.
Did they end up 7-5 for the season or not? Doesn't it say more about the kind of team they were after the games were played than before?

Kinda like how the last two seasons the East was dog shite outside of Georgia?
In 2002 the top ranked West team was Alabama at #13 with Auburn next at #19. And, by the way, Arkansas was ranked #22 when they played for the SECC.
You shooting for some revisionist history here?

Georgia would lose 2-4 in the West.

Arkansas was 9-5 in 2002 not 6-6. At the time of the SEC Championship against Georgia they were 9-3 not 6-6. Do you understand this? At no point in the season was Arkansas 6-6.

Yeah. LSU won 1 and Auburn won 2 in 10 years. the other 7 were Alabama.
In the east heyday Georgia, Florida and Tennessee won SEC Championships. Granted, Florida won the most.

I went back and revised my post. I was going by someone elses post.
Yes, they were 9-3 and ranked #22. Do you not understand this?
quote:True. But they were 3-3.
At no point in the season was Arkansas 6-6.

Hell Missouri won the east their first year in the league, can't be that hard.

You think your Georgia team is better than 08 Florida? Holy frick you are a delusional fricktard.
08 UF had 4 NFL WRs, a Heisman Qb, five Oline players who all went to the NFL, including pro bowlers. A wunderkind murderer at TE. Two insanely fast backs one with track records.
That's just the offense
We also had a better special teams unit in every phase.
Our defense had 9 NFL players as well.
Not to mention our coaching staff was far, far better.
In no way is 2018 Georgia better or more talented that 08 UF. Jesus.

You mean 2013? (Their first year was 2012) yeah. That would have been the year there were 2 east teams in the top 5.
Are you sure that's the argument you want to make?

There were 2 other 10 win east teams in 2018.

The same year our crappy 8-5 team beat LSU and lost to the SECW champion with one of the flukiest plays in the history of flukes.

Three 10 win teams total, which is more than the west had. Good catch.

Everything is prefaced with an IF but Georgia plays to their ability and the answer is no. Injuries always come into play but this may be the deepest Georgia team in my 45+ plus years of following them.
As far as west being so much better than the east and they certainly have been for a while now but last year the east went something like 9-5 in crossover games.
A hard job for Kirby next week is trying to pick the 70 man traveling squad.

Oh pipe down StinkyWaffles. I didn't say that last year at all. And your little diatribe is cute and all but the fact that you immediately tried to make my statement about you is quite telling.

Carolina was the trendy pick to challenge uga for the east last year. Cock fans like you became cocky, but it was uk and ufL that improved the most, though we still comfortably beat them.

I mean you said both of those things last year. I'm not going through all your posts since you spend more time here than in real life...but I'm sure there's plenty more.

The biggest question is...will the OC change help or hurt Georgia? Hasn't been talked about a lot on here, but this could be what Georgia needed to get a title, OR it could worsen their offense. That cant be ignored.
Especially when the cord wasn't elite at Miami when a play caller. At FSU Jimbo ran the offense and called the plays(like Mullen at UF). Coley is an elite recruiter..but OC I would think it's fair to say he has to prove himself. It's why he didn't get an OC job after Miami I would assume.
Two reasons I'm not overly concerned about Coley:
1) Continuity. Coley has been a part of this staff since the beginning. He knows the players, the players know him, and there isn't much reason to wholesale change the terminology. Typically, when a new coordinator comes in there's a learning curve between the coach and the players in order to make sure everyone is on the same page, and that learning curve can be steep. In this case, the learning curve is minimized, and all parties should be comfortable from day one.
2) Talent. Coley did not make a great impression in his time as the Miami OC. Production was average to even below average there, no question. With that being said, what was he really working with at that point? With UGA, he's inheriting a top level QB, multiple explosive RBs, and what is considered the best and deepest OL in the nation. I firmly believe in the old adage, "it's the Jimmy's and the Joe's, not the X's and the O's". We'll certainly find out soon enough if that case is supported here.

Math. Try it. I've been on here for 7 yrs. Look at my post count. Hardly more time here than real life.
More time than any life you have or have ever had so far as quality but it ain't my fault you're a fricking loser.
