Georgia Bulldogs vs LSU Tigers Rivalry — History, Takes & Debate | CFB Social

Everyone ttalking about Bill Connelly's SP+ projections like they tell the whole story needs to remember fall camp is about. I still remember setting up the tailgate in the North Campus lot back in 2021 before we made that run and the energy was electric. Same feeling right now seeing this roster take shape. Connelly can put Texas ahead of us all he wants but watch what happens when our depth starts showing out these next few weeks.

You see ESPN ranking Kirby Smart number one and all I can think about is how different building a roster was back in the 2002 season when you actually developed kids instead of shopping the portal every winter. We landed a five-star tight end the old fahioned way this year bu...

You walk into Sanford Stadium on a Thursday night for fall camp opener and the energy hits different. That first crack of pads echoing off the hedges with the lights on tells you everything you need to know. We don't do the whole "wait and see" thing around here. We reload, we refill, and we remind everybody why this place is the standard. Tennessee State is about to get a rude introduction to what real SEC football looks like under those Thursday night lights. htts://www.on3.com/teams/georgia-bulldogs/

You see Bill Connelly's previews and ESPN's coach rankings and all I can think about is how NIL has turned this sport into free agency. Back in the 1980 season we built teams through four years of development, not a checkbook. Now these kids enter the portal faster than you can say "SEC Championship" and we are left wondering who is even on the roster come August. The loyalty is gone and I do not see it coming back.

ESPN can rank their coaches all they want but Kirby Smart is the best coach in this program's history and it is not even close. I will die on this hill. I watched Vince Dooley win a national title in 1980 with Herschel and that was special but the game was completely different. Dooley coached against option offenses and wishbone teams where you could line up and run it down their throats. Kirby has had to adapt to spread offenses, tmpo, the transfer portal, NIL nonsense that destroyed roster loyalty, and still won two national titles in a four year stretch. You want to talk about building a program? Dooley had the same 22 kids for four years and could develop them slow. Kirby has to replace half his roster every offseason because these kids chase a bag or transfer for more playing time. He won a national title in 2022 with a defense that had five guys drafted in the first round and then turned around and won another one in 2024 with a completely different group of players. That is coaching. That is program building. Mark Richt won 10 games every year and we loved him for it but he never got over the hump. Kirby has taken us to three national title games in six years. The man has built a machine that reloads instead of rebuilds. I do not care what ESPN's list says or who they put at number one. Kirby Smart is the best coach in the country and he is the best coach Georgia has ever had. Period. End of story.

ESPN's coach ranking list is out and I already know where this is going but let me tell you what. This is not the Mark Richt era where we won 10 games every year but could never get over the hump in big moments. This is not the Jim Donnan era where we had talent but not the depth to survive an SEC grind. This is not even the early Kirby years where we were building the foundation but still had those moments where you could see the cracks. We are in a completely different stratosphere now and the numbers prove it. Calling it now: by the time this decade is over. We are talking about back-to-back national titles. We are talking about a recruiting pipeline that has not dipped below top three in six years. We are talking about NFL Draft classes that are setting records for defensive players taken in the first round. And the best part is that people still want to act like we are just some flash in the pan. I remember sitting in Sanford Stadium during the 2019 season watching us lose to South Carolina at home and thinking we might never get there. That was the game where everything changed honestly because you could see the frustration in the program and you could. From that moment forward, we have lost what five rgeular season games total? Six maybe? The consistency we have built is something that programs like Alabama had for 15 years under Saban and we are. The difference between us and every other program in the country is simple. When we lose players to the NFL, we do not rebuild. We reload. Look at what we have done in the portal this offseason. Look at the 2026 recruiting class we are putting together with Kaiden Prothro and the rest of the haul. Look at how the staff develops three-star guys into first-round picks like it is a science. This is not luck. This is a machine that Kirby built...

Just saw Bill Connelly's preview and I guarantee he's got Texas ahead of us again. You know what I remember? The 2005 Georgia-Tennessee game where we beat them 27-14 in Knoxville and they had no answer for our defense. These projection guys don't understand what it means to ha...

Just saw Connelly's SEC preview and I already know he's got us behind Texas again in the SP+ projections. Whatever man, let them sleep on this defense for one more offseason. I've been watching fall camp clips and the front seven looks absolutely terrifying. We lost some guys to the draft but that's what happens when you've been putting D-linemen in the league every single year. The pipeline doesn't stop, it just reloads. What nobody wants to talk about is how this defensive staff has been developing second and third-year guys in the. We've got guys who have been in the system for two years now, learning the scheme, adding weight. The interior push is going to be nasty. Teams think they can just run right at us because we lost some names? Good luck with that. And the secondary is deeper than people realize too. We've got ballhawks back there who have been waiting for their moment. Oregon fans want to talk about their five-star class and Colorado thinks 43 transfers is the answer. Fine. We'll keep doing what we've done since Kirby got here - develop monsters, win the line of scrimmage, and let the results speak. Fall camp energy is different when you know what you've got brewing up front.

Fall camp is finally here and I already know exctly how this season is going to go. We are going to get flagged for every ticky-tack hold while the opposing offensive line gets away with murder every single down. The SEC officiating crew that loves to "let them play" until we have a key third down stop and then. It has been three years of watching our edge rushers get blatantly held with zero calls while our tackles get. I need the league office to actually do something about the consistency because it is getting ridiculous watching games get.

How is nobody talking about the fact that we landed 5-star TE Kaiden Prothro in the 2026 class and ESPN. I saw the breakdown of how every five-star "fits" their system and I just had to laugh because our staff. We do not need a fit. We recruit the best players in the country and we devlop them into first round picks. Period. That 2027 class with 23 five-stars is getting all the hype but people forget we literally had the number one. Oregon got five five-stars in their 2026 haul and good for them. I will take our development track record over their hype train any day of the week. We have been the standard for a reason. Fall camp is fixin' to open and all I keep hearing is about how Texas is loaded and Oregon is the next big thing. Meanwhile we are sitting here with a 5-star TE who is gonna bully linebackers and safeties for the next three years. The disrespect to what we have built in Athens is unreal. We are not going anywhere.

You see Bill Connelly put out his conference previews and I just have to laugh at how this sport has changed. Back in the 2002 season when we won the SEC with that defense that held Tennessee to 13 points in the SEC Championship, you knew exactly what you were getting from every team in the league. Now we have Texas and Oklahoma in our conference, the Big Ten is a coast to coast mess, and nobody can keep a rooster together for more than one season. I miss the days when you could name the starting lineup in April and they would still be there in November. Three portal losses in one week and our depth chart looks different than it did at the end of spring practice. That never happened when Coach Dooley was running things. You had walk ons who would bleed red and black for four years just to get a chance to play on special teams. Now these kids see a bigger NIL bag somewhere else and they are gone before the leaves change color. The 1980 team that won it all with Herschel had the same 22 starters every single week. You cannot build a program when your roster turns over 30 percent every winter. I watched our spring game and I saw some good things from the new guys we brought in through the portal. But I also saw a lot of confusion on the offensive line and that worries me. We lost some real dogs up front to the NFL draft and I am not convinced the replacements are ready for SEC football in September. The 2005 team had that offensive line that opened holes for Thomas Brown and Danny Ware and those boys played together for three years. Chemistry matters. You cannot buy that with NIL money. The recruiting rankings have us sitting at No. 11 in the 2027 class with zero five stars and people are panicking. I remember the 2002 team that had five guys drafted and only one of them was a five star recruit. That team had Max Jean Gilles and David Pollack and Boss Bailey and none of them were handed anything. They earned it in the weight room and on the practice field. These recruiting services are a joke anyway. They had us ranked 15th in 2017 and that class won a natty. I will say this about the new staff. They are working hard in fall camp and I like the way they are rotating guys through the two deep. We have a Wednesday night game against Tennessee State to open the season and I remember when we used to open against Georgia Southern or Arkansas State and you could empty the bench by the third quarter. Now every game is a dogfight because of the portal and NIL and everybody has talent. But I still believe we have the best program in the country when it comes to developing players the right way. We just need to keep our guys home and build through the high school ranks like we always did.

Bill Connelly dropped his conference previews and I just want to know how many times he mentioned Sanford Stadium being. Because that atmosphere is why we keep reloading instead of rebuilding. Other programs have to beg recruits to come watch them play. We just turn on the lights and let the crowd do the talking. You cannot replicate that energy anywhere else in college football.

You see ESPN running that piece on the 23 five-stars in the 2027 class and I just have to shake my head. Back in the 1992 season when we joined the SEC East, we didn't have 23 five-star players in the entire country, let alone one class. Coach Goff had to go find kids from the Georgia high school ranks who wanted to play for the G on their helmet, not for the highest bidder. We built the 2002 SEC Championship team with three-star kids from Valdosta and Lowndes County who stayed four years and developed into men. Now these 23 prospects are being scouted like they are NFL veterans before they have even played a down of college football. The pressure on these kids must be enormous. I remember when a five-star rating meant you were Herschel Walker or Champ Bailey, a once in a generation talent. Now they hand those stars out like candy at a parade. NIL has turned these 23 prospects into free agents before they even sign a letter of intent. The new revenue sharing cap at 20.5 million is just going to make the bidding war more organized but no less disgusting. We used to win recruiting battles because a kid wanted to run through that hedges and hear the Chapel Bell ring after a win. Now it is about who can put together the best package of cash and promises. Kirby has done a good job navigating this mess but I miss the days when you earned your stars by what you did on Friday nights, not by how many Instagram followers you had. The 2027 class will be decided by which program has the best NIL collective, not which program develops the best men. That is just the reality of where we are now.

People keep questioning whether we can reload after losing so many guys to the NFL draft. Kirby and the coordinators have this program running like a machine where you don't rebuild, you just reload. While other teams panic and grab 43 transfers from the portal, we trust our development and our scheme. Mark my words: by week four of the 2026 season, people will be saying our new offensive line coach deserves a raise ...

Four Bulldogs on the SEC All-Decade team and I just think about the 1980 defense that held three teams to single digits. Those boys played through broken bones and never complained. These modern kids wouldn't last a quarter in that era. Toughness is earned in August heat, not ...

Four Bulldogs on the SEC All-Decade team and people still act like we haven't been running this conference. That's just the tip of the iceberg too. Our pipeline keeps producing and this fall camp is loaded with guys ready to step up and prove the next decade belongs to us too....

You watch these spread offenses now and nobdy runs a true option anymore. I miss the 1980 Georgia teams with Herschel and the Wishbone, where you had to read the end and make a split-second decision. That was real football, not this RPO handoff nonsense where the QB just look...

You watch fall camp open and see these kids showing up with their NIL deals already signed and I just think back to the 1982 walk ons who had to prove it every single day in the Georgia heat just to earn a practice jersey. Coach Dooley would have laughed in your face if you as...

You walk into Sanford Stadium on a late summer afternoon and the heat hits you like a freight train. I remember the 1985 season when we had the same offensive line for four straight years and you could feel the grass and the humidity and the noise all at once. These kids today with their air-conditioned locker rooms and synthetic turf don't know what real football felt like.

You see Georgia sitting at No. 11 in the 2027 recruiting rankings with zero five-stars and I just think back to the 2002 SEC Championship team. That group had maybe two or three blue-chip guys total and they went to the Sugar Bowl and beat Florida State because they played together for three years under Coach Richt. These kids today look at a depth chart and transfer out before fall camp even starts. We landed Kaiden Prothro in the 2026 class and that was supposed to be the foundation but now we are watching Texas and Oregon stack five-stars like they are collecting baseball cards. I miss when recruiting was about finding the kid from Valdosta or Bainbridge who wanted to be a Bulldog since he was ten years old, not about who writes the biggest check. The poratl and NIL have turned this program into a rental car agency.

Can someone explain why Georgia Tech fans still talk trash like they have any room to talk? I saw one of their guys on Twitter this morning saying we are overrated and that they are coming for us in 2026. The same program that has lost 8 of the last 9 against us. They have not beaten us in Athens since 1999. That is 27 years of getting embarrassed between the hedges while we were stacking SEC titles and national championships. They can keep the buzz words and the ramblin wreck gimmick. The sc...

Watched ESPN's best players by jersey number list and had to stop and laugh when I saw how many Bulldogs got snubbed. We have put more talent into the NFL over the last five years than anybody in the country and somehow. I guarantee you half the players they picked have never stepped foot in Sanford Stadium on a Saturday night. The disrespect to the G is real but we know what we have built here.

You scroll down Bill Connelly's SEC preview and see us projected behind Texas and Oklahoma in our own conference. Back in the 1992 season when we joined the East division we never had to worry about some school from the plains of Oklahoma coming into Athens and taking our spot...

Three years of fall camp openers and every single year the same narrative comes up about whether we are still. People want to talk about Texas coming in, they want to talk about Alabama reloading, they want to talk about LSU getting all these five-stars. Nobody wants to talk about the fact that we have owned the SEC East for going on a decae now. Florida had their moment. Tennessee had their moment. Both times we answered back by winning the conference the next year. That is not luck. That is a program that is built different. Bill Connelly's preview dropped and I saw the numbers. Our returning production might not be flashy on paper but that is because we churn out NFL talent every single year. That is by design. Kirby built this thing to reload not rebuild. We lost guys to the draft and that is fine. That means the next wave of four-star croots who have been sitting and learning for two years are finally getting their shot. That is the Georgia way. We do not panic. We do not hit the portal for fifty guys. We develop our own and when we do grab someone from the portal it is a targeted move not a desperate one. People keep asking if the SEC is still the best conference or if parity has finally arrived. I look at our schedule and I look at the rosters around the league and I do not see anyone. Texas has the talent but they still have to prove they can handle the week to week grind of this league. Alabama has a new staff dynamic. LSU has all the skill players in the world but can they stop the run when it matters? We have the most complete roster top to bottom and fall camp is where that gets hammered out. The depth chart battles this camp are going to be the most interesting we have seen in a few years. That is how you stay on top. That is how you keep the standard where it belongs. When guys are fighting for their jobs in July, you get a team that is ready to fight for a championship in December. We have the best coaching staff in the conference...

Three portal losses in one week and I just think about the 1985 team that had the same offensive line for four straight years. These kids would have never survived Coach Dooley's summer workouts back then.

I remember the first time I tailgated in the North Lot, and I mean the real North Lot. It was 2017, my cousin had a beat-up Ford F-150 and we backed it in at 5 AM. We had a single propane grill and a cooler full of boiled peanuts that his grandmother made. Somebody’s dad brought a TV with a rabbit ear antenna just to catch the noon kickoff of the other SEC. That lot was a community, NOT a luxury box. You could walk twenty feet and hear someone arguing about the O-line depth and another guy laughing about how hot. We shared food with strangers who parked next to us because that is what you did. I saw a man in a full red coat and no shirt at all, painted from the waist up. We won the game that night, 31-3 against somebody I do not even remember now. That is what I miss, that raw unpolished glue that held everybody together before everything got shiny and curated and. The taigate is the soul of this program and it does not matter how many five-stars we sign if we. We are the standard and that starts in the dirt and gravel of those lots.

You see Oregon stacking five-stars and Texas throwing bags at every recruit in the country and I just think about the 2002 team that won the SEC with players who committed to Coach Richt because they trusted him, not because some collective wrote them a check. NIL has turned recruiting into a bidding war and I hate it. We used to build relationships with these kids and their families over years, now it is just who can put together the best pitch deck and the biggest number. The 2027 class rankings show us at No. 11 and I am supposed to panic because Oregon has five five-stars? I remember when we signed the No. 1 class in 2017 and those kids staeyd four years and won a national championship together. You cannot buy that kind of chemistry with NIL money. The portal and the collectives have turned college football into free agency and I do not care how many five-stars Oregon buys, they still have to play the games on the field. And we still have to figure out how to win in this system ...

Everybody acting like the 2027 recruiting year is all about Oregon and Texas stacking five-stars and somehow that means we are falling behind. I have watched this same storyline play out three times now since Kirby got here. We sit at No. 11 in the ESPN class rankings with zero five-stars right now and the panic merchants are already typing their obituaries for our program. It is July 7th. The 2027 class does not sign for six more months. Do you people remember what happened in 2024 when we were supposedly "struggling" on the trail and then closed with a top-three class? Same thing happened in 2025. Same thing in 2026. The difference between us and the flashy programs is we do not need to announce every commitment with a hype video and a live stream. We evaluate. We develop. Our coaching staff has been doing this long enough to know that February and March rankings mean nothing when you. We landed Kaiden Prothro. We have the best tight end room in America coming back. We have a defesne that reloads instead of rebuilds. I would rather be sitting at No. 11 with a roster full of dudes who want to be Dawgs than be Oregon at No. 1 with a roster built on bag games and transfers who will leave the second a bigger offer comes along. The playoff committee does not care about your 247Sports star count. They care about who shows up in October and November. And we have been showing up every single year. Let these other schools win the offseason. We will win the season. Again.

You watch every coach in this league sell their soul to the portal and bring in 40 new players every winter and I just think about the 2002 team. Coach Richt took over after Jim Donnan and we had a roster full of Georgia kids who grew up wanting to be Bulldogs. David Pollack, Boss Bailey, Musa Smith, all of them stayed four years and developed into something special. We won the SEC in his second year because the foundation was already there, not because we went shopping in December. Now you got programs like Oklahoma State bringing in 50 transfers and Colorado bringing in 43 and they call it a rebuild. That is not a rebuild, that is a rental. Coach Richt would have looked at that and said you cannot build a program on borrowed players. Fall camp opens and I am grateful we still have a head coach who understands you win with the kids who bleed red and black, not the ones who show up for a paycheck and leave the second things get hard.

David Pollack at #47 was a crime and I will not let it go
