A man that watches his team with orange tinted glasses on. If one objectively watched the game you would see that Tennessee wouldn’t be Georgia at home or away this year because you can’t beat Georgia with 130th ranked pass defense. Georgia was too well balanced offense and defense for Tennessee. Georgia has a good enough defense to slow down and actually stop Tennessee which they did and when that happens Tennessee is not going to win. and plenty of games or lost by teams making too many mistakes that are a much better team than an inferior opponent. The year Tennessee lost to Georgia State was Georgia State really the better team even that day even though they won? They may have one but they weren’t the better team in if they played 10 times Tennessee would probably win nine out of 10 times. The SEC is down this year, and Tennessee was better than they have been in the past but you think they’re better than they are. When they play an actually really good team, they’re not going to win as once again, you can’t do that without a defense.
You're the one who seemed all butt hurt that I'm arguing with Georgia fans, instead of patting their head telling them how good they are. I understand context, maybe before you butt into a conversation, find out what's going on. Your immediate response was to defend Georgia fans pounding their chest. If that's what you want to do fine, but don't do it to me, then get upset if I respond.
UGA has a "we'll play when we want to" switch that they flip on and off this year. It'll be on for the SECCG and CFP. I don't think it is a coincidence that the 2 best teams they've played this year (Oregon and Tennessee) they have decisively beaten. You can tell it by the intensity of their play as well.
As some Tennessee fans have pointed out on this very forum that Tennessee was playing with house money for most of the year. Very close wins you had against down teams this year made you think you were actually better than you were. Getting to play most of your important games in Neyland was helpful as well. Pit and LSU have proven themselves to be not very good this year and you played those games away but Pittsburgh is not a hostile environment and LSU at 11 AM is nowhere near LSU at night. The only real test you had this year was Georgia and you failed miserably. You were dominated on both sides of the ball as well as on special teams the entire game. It was never even close. South Carolina further exposed the major weakness which is a lack of pass defense which is ranked 130th. Georgia is actually as good if not better than they were last year and when you ran up against them you found out what it was like to play a really good SEC opponent. Georgia was ranked in the top three in both offense and defense. Georgia has had a way over the last two years of making very good teams look bad and then those teams refuse to acknowledge that's what happened. It happened last year in Neyland and then this year in Athens. Yeah they can win against any team except one with a very good pulse on defense. Tennessee beats really bad or mediocre teams by a lot.
I don't disagree that the win over Pitt wasn't all that impressive. However to say that the "only real test" we had was UGA doesn't even really merit a response. Even if you want to be ridiculous as he is and say that the 11 AM kickoff made LSU kind of a nothing game, what about the Alabama game?
Several are claiming dynasty in several threads. Yeah, I'm being petty fussing with them, but you took one exchange, without understanding the "context" of our conversations, and wanted to slam me. I don't care if he was talking about the future in that post, or I was talking about the past in that post. They are not a dynasty is my argument with several of them, despite what anyone thinks. One win is not a dynasty. Now I will apologize for going harag towards you, but like I said, this is spread over several threads, so you sincerely don't understand the context of the whole thing. You snapped at me, I snapped back because it sure seemed as though you didn't understand the whole picture, so you took one post and automatically went to his defense. That's the context.
Laugh out loud times 1000. You think Georgia prepared for Tennessee all summer now that is the most delusional comment I have ever read on this forum. Yes that’s the Kirby Smart way to plan over the entire summer for an opponent 10 weeks into the regular season. Tennessee appeared to be no tougher for Georgia to play than Missouri or Kentucky and that’s just giving you the facts. In fact, they gave them less of a contest.
