Lombardi Award slight shows the perception of Georgia football yet to catch up to reality
ATHENS — Georgia football holds the No. 1 spot in the nation, but it’s fair to say there are plenty who are either not aware or not convinced.

I'm speechless!
I don't believe these awards improve a players draft stock. Most NFL teams are to good at evaluating talent to get caught up by award status. Is it a slap in the players face, yes, maybe it will motivate them to play at an even higher level. Go Dawgs!

This!
Great article, Mike! Appreciate your fever and passion in this story! This omission is outrageous !
Go Dawgs!
Hmmm....Houston....A&M.....Defensive Lineman Hype....Bear Alexander?
What stigma is upon the Dawgs? Take time to earn respect on a national level? Kidding, right? Well, let's see how this all turns around after UGA takes the natty. Unbelievable.
Well…. I think it’s time to get their attention and make their omission an embarrassment for them.
sic ‘em Dawgs!
Davis, Jalen Carter and Salyer should all be on the list.
Jalen Carter, Davis and Salyer won't escape notice of NFL teams. I think all 3 will be 1st rd picks when they come out.
Just shows how ignorant some people can be. I’m sure this info has been made aware of around the Georgia team.
A lot of the voters are probably looking at stats and as Brandon Adams pointed out the other day our defense is not on the field enough to accumulate stats. To heck with them...time to let the Big Dawgs Eat!!!
Looks like the Media doesn't like being wrong?
2021 Preseason All SEC 1st Team Defense: Georgia - 1. Alabama - 6.
DL: Jordan Davis, Georgia
DL:Phidarian Mathis, Alabama
DL:Kingsley Enagbare, South Carolina
*DL:Zachary Carter, Florida
*DL: DeMarvin Leal, Texas A&M
LB: Henry To'o To'o, Alabama
LB: Christian Harris, Alabama
LB: Will Anderson Jr., Alabama
DB: Derek Stingley Jr., LSU
DB: Josh Jobe, Alabama
DB:Malachi Moore, Alabama
DB: Kaiir Elam, Florida
It's more like Georgia - 6. Alabama - 1.
The people who masquerade as “experts” in the world of college football are a joke. These are the same folks that vote Iowa, Oklahoma, and Cincinnati as the second, third, and four best teams in the nation, while grudgingly voting the Dawgs, the best team and it’s not even close, number one!
I'm 51 and I've been aware of the negativity around UGA football as long as I can remember.
I don't know what it is about Georgia sports teams, but the disdain is there.
I remember Jack Buck and Tim McCarver in the '91 WS and their dislike of the Braves was palpable.
So a player leaves our team because he isn't good enough to get steady reps and he transfers and becomes a Lombardi trophy finalist???
You can't make this up!!!
All I can say is that I've always considered UGA the good guys, and that's for a reason!
Go Dawgs!!
That is truly unbelievable! An absolute disgrace to the players who lead our team, and a slap in the face to the Georgia program. Not a lot gets under my skin, but this? I’m really pissed.
It will never stop with the uga animosity. Until we are hoisting a trophy at the end of the year, we'll never be "good enough". Alabama could have the #1 offense with the #90 defense and still have award winners and 1st round draft picks from the defense. As long as they're gonna hoist a trophy, that's all the media cares about.
