favorite quote: "So the argument goes: Georgia is a few breaks from being on that Alabama/Clemson level. That’s true if we’re talking about the ’17 and ’18 season. But this is 2019 and we don’t view this team as talented as the previous two, especially on defense, and we also think the rest of the SEC has done some catching up to the upper echelon."

They've made my list of most overrated websites.
Guarantee the guy who wrote this never played a game of football in his life.
I put more value in where people are placing their money. Like BA always says, the sportsbooks tend to be a better tell. With that said...interesting tid bit I read today (sorry, dont have a link...found it while browsing): UGA has had more bets placed on it to win the Natty this year than any other team. #takeittothebank
Bookmark it. That article will not age well.
Here’s a bet for you - Can you find another writer with that opinion regarding our defense compared to a year ago?
look, from an outsider's perspective, from the perspective of someone who isn't giddy over what UGA can do, I get it
If you want to be a negative Nancy (or realist, matter of perspective I guess) you can say:
UGA under Smart has choked leads in two games vs Alabama
UGA keeps getting blown out in road trips vs SEC West teams
UGA has had multiple big time 5* players transfer. Everyone has transfers but not everyone has 5 *players do it
UGA lost their top 5 WRs from last year. The top returning WR had 9 catches last year, or is a RB. Depending how you look at it
UGA has spent most of the 21st century being *this* close and coming up short. Why would this season be any different?
UGA under Kirby has made a few decisions that were very risky and failed. Questioning that is valid (but also ignores high risk plays like 1st offensive play vs Miss St in 2018)
I am probably missing things too
we all look at those and rationalize. Some justly, some with fan-colored glasses. We have optimism and hope. We should. And WHEN UGA wins the title it all disappears. the 14,000 day count, the questioning of Smart as a coach and not just a recruiter, the state of GA choking, etc. Win a title, it all goes away
Never heard of her.....
Injecting realism into this discussion isn't very fanboy of you.
I'll add that site includes tOSU. The same team with the highest blue-chip ratio in the country. It also has Oklahoma, home of the last 2 Heisman winners.
So they are basically saying anyone on the top 5 that has not won a national title in the last couple of years is overrated
I'm a fan of you, boy
:-)
Less talented on defense? Our defense is the most talented that it's ever been in the history of our program. Like I said, UGA is being disrespected left and right by national media. I love it.
F' it just prove them wrong. Start with beating Vandy rinse and repeat weekly. Just that simple . Go Dogs
Dawgs* no worries brother I gotchyu
