UGA has not distanced themselves from the rest of the SEC yet. They have won an unimpressive eastern division and not gotten over the Bama hump, like Florida did under McElwain. I think Kirby has them trending up and this may be the season that changes, but at this point they are not in the same conversation as Bama, same as LSU isn't.
UGA is far ahead of us. Yes, we soundly beat them last year. Hell of a win - but it was one game. You can do other comparisons: UGA whipped UF convincingly the last 2 years, while we split with them, with both games being very close. Got to look at the overall body of work, not a single game.
By the way, UGA and LSU were in similar spots a few years ago. Elite recruiting, nice-guy coach who won a lot of games but lost some they shouldn't. UGA and LSU both fired their coach. Good move by both.
But UGA has elevated their program substantially, and quickly. I'd argue we haven't done that.

UGA hasn't beaten Bama since 2007, with 5 meetings since. You can have fun arguing about style points or "being competitive". They have not gotten over the hump, and don't belong in the same conversation with Bama and Clemson as Chizik is asserting. I never set out to argue anything else.
