IMhO UGa Dawg’s Team & Fans “Should” have won the 2017 Natty, since


Apr 21, 2018, 1:24 PM

they were a super team all year, freshman qb Fromm was unreal good, they took 40K fans to ND & won, then won sec East & then won SEC Championship, then out-scored OK & Heisman Man in the best, most exciting, longest & highest scoring Rose Bowl game in 100+ years..in 2 freaking OT’s!

and took it to the Tide until the last play..in OT!

Thanks for the kind words, but we just didn't get it done. We finished the year against our traditional rival, a complete #4 Auburn team (with Kerryon), Oklahoma, then Bama - all away from home. And came up 1 play short. Not sure how many teams could run those 4 straight.

We had a group over my house watching the Rose and Sugar Bowls, and believe it or not, everyone was pulling for your guys to beat Bama.

Vs Bama, we played good D all game except for one bust on the final play. Oh well, we got it reloaded and we'll make a run this year.

You beat ND in 2016? Or UNC? Actually we beat UNC in 2016 - it was Kirby's 1st game as coach. They were not a top 10 team.
Auburn wasn't ranked in 2016 either, they finished 8-5, and we beat them by the same margin that you did.
But I was talking about games all in a row. You beat SoCar at home, a 4-loss VT team in the ACC-C, then OSU & Bama.

Sorry Reddawg, I disagree

about a ‘complete’ Auburn or you’re ‘reloaded’ w/o Chubb and Michel. Still, yours truly sees life through orange colored glasses when assessing my Tigers, so I can ‘see’ from where your optimism stems!

However, with all that being said, I do see your dawgs and the tide (both probably 12-0) in Atl next Dec - and barring a dark horse making the CFP - the three of us and one team ‘tbd’ comprising next year’s final four.

My bet now would be O-31-0 State for the fourth cfp slot; as the talking heads continually place them on a pedestal. And face it, the BiG probably contains no team able to beat them (and don’t forget: “....a win over an sec or BiG team ‘just means more’....”), plus their OOC opponents are Ore St and TCU.

Personally, I hope we get you in the semis; then beat bama in the championship.... ?? Hah! Just poking at’cha, my friend! Looking forward to another great cfb season and watching all the potential contenders. Whoever... however... it’s gonna be interesting!

Good luck to your dawgs!

GO TIGERS!!!

Whatever choice(s) you make makes you. Choose wisely.

I was referring to the fact that Kerryon did not play vs you guys. Auburn was a different team with him in there. But no question we'll miss Chubb and Sony - those guys are the #2 & 3 career rushers at Running Back U. But guys move on, that's College Football. If you lose guys like that, it helps to have a stable with Swift, Herrien & Holyfield, plus White & Cook coming in. And we look to have the best OL we've had in an awfully long time. We'll see.

You're right about Ohio St, they always get hyped to the hilt. I think you guys will have a good shot to make the CFP again - your WRs are the real deal. But you won't get by us. That's just the way it is :) Good luck until then!!

I agree with all of that except the part about Kerryon.

While Johnson did get on the field, he didn't practice all week because of his injury during the Alabama game. He was far from 100%, and had a critical fumble in the game. He ran for almost 170 yards against UGa 3 weeks earlier, he only had 40 yards in the SEC title game. His injury in the Alabama game was very noticeable in the SEC title game. It made Auburn very one dimensional, and Stidham didn't have a good game, much like the game he had with Clemson, where we held Auburn to only 107 yards of total offense.
