This is what I'm talking about as well. Also when you say UGA may "have more talent" in 2018. Physical talent and actually putting up better results on the field than the 2017 team are two vastly different things. It pains me to refer back to our 2010 team. This team should have won the national title. Hands down. They were more talented than the previous year's team, which won the national title. But ended up losing three games that year.
They do have a great recruiting class, but Alabama is fairly unique in immediate results from a class. They had a lot of returning starters and seniors which lead to be a big turnaround, it will be interesting to how Smart does (and I sure as heck won't be pulling for him).
It's the starting QB at FSU and the TPD - the chances of him getting charged were roughly the same as SpaceX naming me CEO.
That Alabama team play 8 ranked teams. All 3 losses were to ranked teams. I get that GA is going to have to figure out how to replace all of that talent and leadership, but they won't face a schedule like that. And, because they lost, they won't face complacency issues. I have no idea how this season will work out for GA, but their schedule is pretty easy. USCe, LSU and Auburn will be ranked - that may be it.
Wasn't that the year they all had bye weeks before Alabama as well?
Yup, seven consecutive weeks of games where the opponent had the previous week off.
Was that with or without a bottle of tequila in his hand???
