Kirk Herbstreit, Rece Davis poke fun at UGA fans on Twitter: ‘Poor old Georgia’
Neither Kirk Herbstreit nor Rece Davis has Georgia as the No. 1 team entering the 2023 college football season. It seems those decisions have upset some Georgia fans.
Comments
proof please
Is the only way these 2 (esp Herbstreat) have to get some notice is to talk down the Dawgs, well, once again, we'll let the players and coaches outcomes decide! Go Dawgs!
Being #1 on July 11 means absolutely nothing. Being #1 on January 11 is what you really want. Actually it is an advantage to CKS to not be #1 on July 11. CKS can now tell his entire squad that last season means absolutely nothing and that the '23 team has a lot of work to do to develop and be in the playoffs in December. If you want to be in the playoffs in December you better start working hard now.
All that you can ask of a program/coach is to be competitive with any team that you line up against. Very few teams can say that. UGA can say that. Let the development begin.
DAWGS have won 2 titles in 2 years. Last time ohio state won a title (2014) herbstreit was still a young man too..wonder how old kirk would like that sarcasm?
DAWGS have made both davis, and herbstreit eat their "expert" words the past 2 seasons. They guess enough and they're bound to get it right sooner or later.
I don't blame them at all - their rational is very sound.
I will say, however, both of them have made a career of putting UGA under the bus, while touting Ohio State, Michigan, and Bama. I'm still amazed how they gave free press to Bryce Young, helping him win the Heisman, when Bennett was taller, stronger, faster, and won more big time games. They make the news, and people believe them. Herbstreit is the Oprah of Espn - in so many ways.
It's just click-bait.
I love it. More sarcasm please.
Fuel Baby! More Fuel for the run. The best thing that happened last year was that Dolt picked Tennessee on Game Day and they moved us to #3. I love being #3 in October. Bring it.
…Georgia fans would simply like to be acknowledged as the No. 1 team in the country….
ok I’ll acknowledge that the Georgia fans are better than all the other fans!!!
and while I’m at it, I will say that until proven otherwise, the football team at UGA is also the best.
😳
I guess the alabama quarterback's numbers in his impressive string of game starts warrant that number one ranking from herbstreit. I can see their argument.
I don't have a problem with what they said. Should be good motivation for our Dawgs! Besides, I've always liked Rece Herbstreit and Kirk Davis. 😁
GO DAWGS!
It is amusing that part of the reason Ga. is dissed is because of the uncertainty at quarterback. Hmmm. How many starts will the coming quarterback at Alabama have when the season starts? But, no, wait, it's Alabama.
Haters gonna hate!
Before last season, Herbstreit picked Bama to win the SEC and Will Anderson to win the Heisman. He thought Clemson would have a great year and that Baylor would win the B12. As usual, he picked his Buckeyes to win the B-10. He was only wrong on every prediction--100%! Davis, I'm sure, was probably right there with him. LOL-who should be poking fun at whom?!
It's ESPN, owned by Disney, what else do you need to know....
All good points. Very few teams run the table as #1 from the beginning of the season until the very end. I think it has been done only a couple times.
I personally love it. Kirby needs something, anything to motivate these guys and not get complacent. This team is fully loaded and ready for bear. Bama, LSU and OSU are the only teams that could actually beat us. Michigan has a super easy schedule as does OSU so in all liklihood The Big Game will be played against 2 undefeated teams either 1 & 2 or 2 &3 or something.
Needless to say I am a big Texas and Penn State fan this year. Hook 'Em!
I personally don't see that UGA should automatically be #1 just because they were the last two years. It's a new year and things change. I completely get that UGA is unproven at QB and lost a load to the NFL. Can they reload? Absolutely. What is a head scratcher to me is that Herbstreit puts so much stock in Bama considering they lost essentially the same - including the Heisman and #1 pick at QB. As unproven as UGA is at QB, Bama is equally - if not more so. Did anyone see that Bama Spring game? Nick did and wen to the portal to bring in another QB. And Reese with Michigan..... maybe so if they can get past TCU 🙄. Seeing UGA ranked in the top five is fine with me. No one wins a Championship in July or Sept or Oct. And this just gives Kirby a calling card. It will all work itself out. Go Dawgs.
I can see the logic behind Michigan being #1 or LSU since they have returning qbs.
I guess those 2 think they can say anything positive or negative about Georgia now that David Pollack won’t be around to try to keep them in check.
