re: With Saban retired will anyone finally beat UGA?

FYI, he was talking about the impact of Michigan’s rest/prep time on that outcome.

Yeah, bullshite excuses because everyone in both cases gets the same amount of prep and rest time.

Good to see you correct your mistake about insisting bama was already in the top 4 before getting rewarded with a bye week. You were wrong about that one.

---

Alabama was ranked high enough they didn't need to play their way in. Georgia was not. Even if Auburn had won that game, Alabama was still in. The outcome of the game only benefited Georgia.

It would have been #2 Auburn and #4 Alabama with Georgia at home instead of #3 Georgia and #4 Alabama with Auburn at home. And if Auburn had won, Alabama's top4 claim is even stronger than the Auburn loss.

The only people who cry about that are people who don't like Alabama and/or people who think "Conference Champion" is for some reason a qualification for the playoffs when it wasn't.

You are showing almost zero understanding of the first and second auburn games. Interesting that the AU injury was killer, while you ignore the uga injuries that helped bama.

---

It doesn't matter, Georgia still won. It doesn't matter how many injuries Georgia had, Alabama still won.

But don't pretend like you weren't the beneficiary of it all while trying to point the fingers at others.

Kirby spied Milroe with not 1, but 2 defenders. A dude that couldn't throw a slant to save his life.

Maybe pump the brakes on Kirby being anywhere near Saban as far as coaching. Lol.

Ohio State is in absolute prime position to take over the sport.

What it gets down to is this - is Ohio St tough enough to do it against elite competition?

Right now the jury is voting no!

Next man up. Kirby should probably just develop players better.

---

We may have been better off playing the backups rather than the hurt starters, but it’s hard to tell a hurt warrior to sit.

quote:

Bama got lucky AF Brock and Ladd weren’t healthy in December.

---

Better luck next year. Maybe Alabama will get super lucky and Georgia fixes those positions and not their O and D line before next year.

quote:

---

Wrong again. Unless you are 4th or higher going into championship weekend, this is not true. Bama needed others like UGA and OSU to help you.

---

Wisconsin wasn't good and everyone knew it, but whatever. They didn't beat a single good team that year until their bowl game. It was just a matter of waiting for them to lose once they played a good team.

quote:

---

It does matter because it’s another example of you being wrong and also an injury hypocrite.

---

No, you are using it as an excuse for a loss, I'm talking about team strength.

quote:

---

I heard Saban played for the natty without even winning his division. Twice

---

Because conference labels don't mean shite in the national championship picture. Conferences are in no way designed to award the championship to the best team nationally. If they were, then Georgia would have many less appearances in the SECCG(and losses, since you hardly ever win the game). Because you have made it to the game multiple times while not being among the top 2 teams in the SEC.

quote:

---

I also have yet to see the equivalent of 4th & Bond that went against Bama

---

You mean like the Kick 6 which ended Alabama's chances at a 3 peat?

quote:

---

When did they last lose to someone besides Bama? A few years?

---

What? Georgia was a non factor until 2021. Then they dropped the ball against a Bama team that was lucky to beat a team that got blown out by New Mexico State.

Was Clemson getting this much arse kissing when they won 2 championships in 3 years? Why are people acting like UGA is some unstoppable juggernaut blue blood? They didn’t win shite from 1984-2020. Technically 2019 because 2020 wasn’t an official season, but still. 35 years. Gimme a friggin break with the arse kissing.

Bama got lucky AF Brock and Ladd weren’t healthy in December.

Those two's percentage of uga's offense was nothing compared to Williams and Metchie's (2,500 yards between them) in 2021 and Georgia folks on here insisted that it didn't matter, we should have had good backups to replace them and it was weak to blame a loss on injuries. And Bowers and Ladd played, they weren't out like our guys. Hypocrites.

Bama's record against Georgia is 41-25, we've been beating you long before
Saban and will continue to do so in the future.

the best team nationally.

It's hard to argue this when you don't win your conference. It's even harder when you're not in the conference championship at all. We're not playing football simulator, the games themselves have to count.

---

Because you have made it to the game multiple times while not being among the top 2 teams in the SEC.

---

Which years are you referring to? I'll give you 2011, we were way outmatched. 2019 is a tough sell, that LSU team reached another level in the postseason Are you also offsetting that with the 2007 UGA team that missed out??

The kick 6 must hurt...10 years later

Are you being disingenuous on purpose?

Because you failed to finish that thought with…..

“as uga also had plenty of players out too, which evened things out, but our backups were better than yours”.

quote:

---

And Bowers and Ladd played, they weren't out like our guys. Hypocrites.

But was that helpful? My point just before this one was
