UGA beat OSU because OSU missed a FG to win.
15-0 > then 11-2… not sure your point. I think that’s obvious. I don’t think I said I thought we were better than UGA this year. I only said to think they don’t have comparable or better talent than we do is just silly. It’s been proven by NFL drafts. This isn’t rocket science to understand. If you think UGA hasn’t recruited as well as us, here are the last 5 years ranking for UGA on Rivals site. *Note, I don’t really think recruiting site rankings mean a whole lot.

Not sure how you can take recruiting site rankings as solid facts… that just makes me laugh. Facts are UGA set a record last year for 1st round defensive players taken at 5. They had more talent… that is a proven fact. To say they don’t have equal or better talent is a joke. But let’s humor you.

So… there ya go. And I’m not sure how you think recruiting classes from 5+ years ago help our depth… those players are no longer on the team.
Not sure what your point is in the rest of your post. I would agree our defense didn’t play well this year. I only pointed out that it’s ridiculous to say UGA doesn’t have as good of talent as we have… in fact I’d argue over the last 2 or 3 years they’ve had better.
Georgia also missed two field goals from one of the best kickers in the county as well, so how are you simply hanging it on the one Ohio State missed? It goes both ways.
The entire point was that in the last ten years we have recruited 7 better classes than Georgia. If you don't want to go off that, then simply go to the Draft and see how many players have been drafted from each school to show you what the NFL thinks about our talent. Who cares how many players Georgia had drafted in one year from a stout defense. How many did LSU have from their Natty team, but I'm still taking our 2020 offense over their 2019 offense. It's not even close for who has produced more talent and has the better roster. Also, Stetson was on Georgia's team five years ago, and last year they had Julian Rochester on the team for a sixth year that was a high four star that boasts their "depth", so yes, with covid there are plenty of guys still on these teams from years back. I will admit though I was not speaking in absolutes about recruiting rankings, just more generalities, but knew we had recruited at a higher level with our #1 classes rating higher than theirs, so I get your list as I looked that up even after my intial post about it.

Now, I've never ever said Georgia hasn't recruited well. I'm simply saying our roster is deeper than theirs, and there is plenty of information to support that. You're pointing to one year, last year, what Alabama has done almost every year. So not sure what your point is there.
In the end, Golding had the talent here to compete with Georgia statistically and he could not. Our schedule wasn't much different from Georgia's as we all played cupcakes and some good conference games, and we lost to two teams they beat up on. We aren't far, but we ahould have walked our way to a Natty this season with how down as a whole college football was.
