Tom,
I'm sure take TCU and the +13.5 points. All of our great players (13 of them) went to the NFL last year. We had few players left on the team.

We have an old walk-on QB trying to make a pass to a 3-star WR. We were lucky to get by The Ohio State University in one game.

The best team in the SEC is the Alabama Crimson Tide. They get the best 5-star players (five this year) with a coach that has won Seven National Championships. How can we keep up with them as well?

It's just a "Hope and a Prayer" is all we got going here.

All this poor mouthing sounds just like Bear Bryant, when we would play Podunk U. he would always build them up and make our players sound like a bunch of pick-up boys who'd never seen a football before. I expect GA to mop up the floor with TCU.

My wife and I graduated from UGA. I got a MBA and she got a MD.

It works well to marry the smarted and hottest girl in your senior year of college. She also supports my car passion. We have always worked as a team to accomplish most every goal that we had.

And this twice National Championship happened. We need more shirts:

I am certainly running well above my best dreams. I think it all works out for Porsche guys.

Congrats to GA for holding up the rep of the SEC until Bama takes it back over. BTW, I've got several of those Natty shirts going back several decades. Enjoy your championship, we'll contend this fall. RTR!

Our UGA Bulldog team came out mad, and the college game is always hard to predict. It's just a great story that our QB came in as a walk-on QB. He kept working and working to prove himself. He had a solid goal to prove that he believed in himself, and that he was good. It's a great lesson to younger guys: Work hard and good things will happen.

I am driving my 2023 Porsche 911 Turbo to the big parade tomorrow to celebrate the team victory. My little success is due to my GA college experience pushing me forward.

Very cool. Is the parade on the SEC network or anything? Would be awesome to spot your car on TV. :clap:

Everybody loves a walk-on success story. Kind of like Purdy for the 49ers right now...

Tom,
I am not a booster, so my car is just here showing my support to the students. I will wear my Carpokes decal.

Did you notice the student athletics from Texas and CA (Brock Bowers from Napa)? Coach Smart has a private jet to visit with new recruits. The jet and financial support comes from private donors. The SEC went 14-3 over other bowl opponents for a reason.

Some people complained about the score. Kirby also requires full attack mode from the 2nd string and 3rd string guys. That is not much different from getting in Med School. We want the best doctors working on us if we need them.

I think the football team will be a force next year. But I am just a fan and will never gamble.
