Recruiting forum off topic thread (no politics, covid, or hot button issues)

Because the transitive property doesn’t work. That’s why it’s conjecture. You can say Bama would have won if they were healthy. But there is no proof.

They won a month prior. Conjecture is "an opinion or conclusion based on incomplete information." We have some information, and the prior victory is pretty darn good proof to form that opinion.

A&M beat bama in their meeting, does that mean they’d beat bama every time they played? A one game sample size doesn’t mean much. While the injuries certainly hurt, Bama has recruited at a level where it’s next man up. Not sure what this has to do with the thread though.

Well, if you watched Bama all year, you would see how important those two receivers were to their offense. But take that away, and all I said was that it is not conjecture. It was a one score game in the 4th quarter without their 2 leading WR's. You can say whatever you want, but a reasonable opinion (based on data) is that Bama was greatly affected and could have won that game with their 2 injured players.

2001 UT/LSU
1996 FL/FSU
2004 UGA /LSU
2011 Bama / LSU
2017 Aub/ UGA

I could name more instances in the last 25 years where the loser of the first game won the rematch. Your hypothesis is lacking.

Not to mention their 2 starting CB's that were out...

This thought process is lacking. I didn't say they would automatically win. I merely said that suggesting that Bama would win with its 2 injured players was a reasonable opinion based on prior data. Did any of those teams above have injured players the second time? I don't know, and frankly, I don't care.

This isn't difficult.

We’ll never know what would’ve happened with a fully healthy bama/UGA. I agree that the injuries hurt bama, but injuries are part of the game. If the freshman WR’s stepped up they would’ve still had a chance even with the poor OL play. Also have to give credit to Stetson Bennet for not imploding like he did the 2 previous meetings.

Either way, will be interesting to see what Burley does. Clemson was the leader at one point, but BV leaving seems to have opened the door for UT and UGA. Clemson falling would likely benefit Tennessee the most.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Handily? It was a one score game in the 4th quarter?

UGA won by 2 TDs. I consider that handily.

Wrong. Previous meetings between two teams are irrelevant. Let’s take a recent NFL game between the Rams and Cardinals. Arizona beat LA by 17 earlier in the season. But what happened yesterday? The Cardinals got obliterated.

So no there is no proof that exists that previous games between opponents have any relevance to future games.

Could Bama have won if they were healthy? Yes. Could they have also lost? Yes. It’s 50/50. There is no way to know for sure. The only sure thing is UGA beat Bama by 2 TDs.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

That's conjecture.

They won 33-18. So no it’s fact.

Keep doing your thing. No one said it was a sure thing- just that missing their 2 best WR's made it reasonable to suggest that they would have won. Nice example since the Rams beat the Cardinals most recently in week 14.

Prior to 2017, 5 of the 6 SECCG rematches were won by the regular season champion. UGA beat Auburn in 2017.

Dumb....dumb

Calling it winning "handily" not the score itself. Yikes.

So just to be clear winning by 2 TDs isn’t winning handily?

 

[VolGee4]

The definition of "handily" is winning "easily." So, you figure it out.

I don’t know. this you?

Guys like this don’t usually go to programs who have struggled with teams like Vandy and South Carolina.

How many TDs did we beat SC and Vandy by? And yet we struggled according to you. hmm..

I guess I should have clarified for the more challenged crowd. But let’s take a look shall we?

Vs SC:
45-20
31-27
41-21
24-27
9-15
21-24
27-24

We have had 2 dominate wins vs SC in the past 7 years. Yes last year was very good. I think if Heupel didn’t take his foot off the gas we probably score 60+. But still a dominate win. But we have struggled with SC for awhile now. If you disagree, by all means refute.

Vandy has beaten us 3 times in the past 7 years. 2016, 2017 and 2018. When was the last time that happened? 1923, 1925 and 1926. Yes we dominated them this past year and that felt great. The days about us having to even worry about Vandy are over. But I consider 3 losses to Vandy in 7 years as struggling.

And I was more mocking you about your comment when you said Burley wasn’t even considering UGA a month ago. Like you know who he was really considering. You take what you read on websites and what you hear on Vol calls and think it’s the gospel.

You hooked the Bassmaster BUT you know what BOT, that's how most of the info we receive is shared. Folks that wish to spend the time at TOS's, listening to certain podcasts, from certain individuals that have access to the program like AP, Hubbs, Callahan....etc bring back nuggets from what most view as a reliable sources. So rant on about folks like Bass, he cares, he's dramatic at times and more times than not he's spot on.....he just posts the wrong pic sometimes
