This time of year, Georgia Football news is sluggish. Other than the fact that they are losing games they shouldn’t, there isn’t much to say about the men’s basketball team. It is completely dry there, aside from James Cook expressing what many consider to be an accurate fact regarding Georgia’s exclusion from the playoffs.
Thus, like any sane blogger, I look for a story that will grab your attention and not take up too much of your time. I detest perusing blogs that look promising but end with the most obvious solution imaginable. It just seems like the blogger was trying too hard, in my opinion. Thus, during my search, I came across this nugget. Oh my goodness, did I hit gold!

Georgia is the third-most successful program in the nation over the past 25 years, trailing only Oklahoma and Bosie State. Boise State is unique in that despite having a stellar record, the majority of their victories came against weaker opponents. Conversely, though, they defeated nearly every person on that list at once. However, Georgia is one of the most successful programs in recent memory despite having just finished their worst football decade in over a century.
And how unexpected is it that Alabama is nowhere near the top of the list? However, it makes some sense given the decades that passed after Bear Bryant’s retirement. On social media, a number of SEC supporters have a fresh response for Georgia supporters. The slogan is now “Georgia is just now experiencing winning; y’all ain’t a blue blood!” instead of #1980.

Would you, however, examine that? Georgia has had one of the most successful college football programs for the last 50 years. fourth all-time! What do you think these statistics and numbers mean, then? What I remember from it is this: Georgia is among the top collegiate football programs. In addition, the Georgia Football program would be regarded as a blue blood given its past.
The programs at Ohio State, USC, Michigan, Alabama, and Oklahoma are comparable to that of Georgia Football. Goog it if you don’t think it’s true! The opponents’ fan bases, or detractors, will constantly change the objective for the Dawgs. Since Kirby Smart assumed control of Georgia in 2016, they have. That genuinely conveys their collective fear of Georgia’s potential and the run the Dawgs could have.
Unfortunately, history and the current era indicate that they are living their worst nightmare. The Dawgs will only carry on their winning streak and capture national championships. We could all agree one day that the Dawgs are the most successful team in the previous 25 to 50 years. Time will tell.
