Hypothetical SECCG scenario for this season

Since this is hypothetical, don't tangent off into "well what if so and so" type stuff. Just pick an option below that you would most want to see involving UGA.
1)Bama comes in undefeated or with 1 loss, ranked in the top 5. It is a back and forth struggle just like last year, and yet again, we get the ball with a minute left and no timeouts needing a TD to win. Murray engineers an Elway like drive and throws the GW touchdown as time expires
2)Bama comes in undefeated or with 1 loss, ranked in the top 5. The game is similar to the 05 SECCG with LSU. We jump out early, the rest is kind of uninteresting to watch, not a lot of drama, we cruise to a nice and comfy 17-20 point win that is pretty much in the bag at halftime
3)Bama loses 3 regular season games. We play either LSU or aTm and win in a fairly close 7-10 point game
If you could pick right now, which of those 3 would you rather have happen? Put aside bowl game implications or anything that happens AFTER the game, just the SECCG itself at face value.

number 2. I want there to be no doubt who the best team was

Give me #1. It would be nice to see a blowout, but it's always something to have games being replayed 10-20 years down the road so you can relive those memories and enjoy what a great game it was.

Number 2, any day. I'd love for us to leave bodies strewn across the entire landscape of college football in our wake leading up to the crushing statement that is the SECCG. Then beat the Tide like they were Hawaii, only without the merciful letting off the gas toward the end.

I'd go with #1. I thought this past SECCG was amazing except for the loss.

BLOW OUT THE GUMPS! Oh, yea, I digress, #2.

As awesome as blowing out the Gumps or any other west team would be, ripping their heart out in the final seconds would feel so much better

Lets just hope our DL and LBs can slow down the 17 RB rotation without someone dieing of exhaustion

I despise alabama, absolutely loathe them, which is why I included #3. It'd be nice to see them fail and finish 3rd in the west. But if their season is going to end up being substandard, I'd like for us to deliver the blow. So that removes #3. So it basically all comes down to which you prefer; redemption vs satisfaction
(1)Redemption- talk about storybook. Getting to basically a do over of last year would be awesome and show people that yes, we CAN do it. The spike call, murray, richt, conley, etc all eases up considerably and we have probably a top 3 drive in UGA football history. The ultimate redemption story, for Murray and Richt in particular
(2)Satisfaction- no drama, not a lot of excitement (from non bama/UGA fans), but would feel..."better", I guess you could say. To really impose our will on them and not let them ever even get excited about the possible chance of winning. And as mentioned above, it would remove any doubt at all about the better team. Everyone would say "yep, UGA was undoubtedly better than bama. Really whooped em".
As for me personally, I guess I'd have to go with 1. I think for ME personally, myself, I would enjoy #2 more. It's always fun to cruise to an easy victory, especially in a huge game. Everyone is in high spirits and relaxed and having a great time. But I just think #1 would be too good of a situation to pass up. To make them feel like we did last year, and for Murray/Richt to make good on the situation would just be indescribably awesome.

give me number one. Not only would we win, but it would go down as one of the greatest CFB moments ever.

2. If Bama is highly ranked and we dominate, we have a chance to move up to #1 assuming we are also in the top 5.

#1. I have a lot of Gump fans for friends. I've had to hear it since December. Would love to see us tear their hearts out. Dammit I hate Alabama.
