Why is it dumb? We have a comparable recruiting class, we both have three losses and we beat them head to head by 20 points . Furthermore, we over- performed this year while they under- performed and we will be deep and experienced next year. Sounds to me like we are on pace to flip the script.

Was that not part of the equation of the season?

Everyone is. Acting like this season was unequivocally better than UGA's is a bit of stretch. UGA has an East title while LSU has a bowl win. LSU has the #4 ranked class (following #15 ranked class). UGA has the #2 ranked class (#1 ranked class).

Again, nothing in there clearly screams "better" to me.

I'm literally the only person in the thread giving context to each season.

Maybe, but we beat them handily if you want a tie breaker.

Does that come before or after the overall conference finish?

Why? because I said one season doesn't determine whether or not a team can be a dynasty?

I'm sorry if I would rather see how UGA does over a couple more years than just say LSU finished better than UGA in one season that means they will never be a dynasty. You think that's a reasonable conclusion to jump to based on a single season?

True; however, we also beat UGA, won our bowl and will likely finish ahead of them if they don't turn it around.




Agreed, but this idea that we're ahead of their pace with Smart is goofy at best.

What puts them ahead of LSU?

Pretty equal programs. LSU has made up ground

You guys keep talking about a season. My comment was about saying one season can predict whether or not a team will eventually be considered a dynasty. I don't understand how people don't get this. I'm not arguing if LSU did better or worse than UGA in 2018. I'm saying that doesn't equal

But Georgia is the new Dynasty!




One season (still finishing in the top 10 btw) doesn't dictate if a team will or won't be the next dynasty.

Are we just going to ignore their season/class in 2017?

ETA - you said yourself you read like 60/85 scholarships are freshmen/sophomores.

Or the class they're putting together this cycle?

Yes they are because apparently the majority of them don't understand or didn't read the word dynasty. One season apparently dictates all future success or failures.

Wait. I thought Kirby was a genuius. O an idiot. This board and fan base like Baton Rouge are laughable.

I don’t see how last year is relevant as far as their season.

I’m not hating on them. But Smart has shown warts. LSU has young talent too

Let me know when O coaches the team people felt like was left out of the playoffs the year after losing the title in heartbreaking fashion.


Georgia never deserved to be in the playoffs this year, no matter what the espn “gurus” thought.
