[QUOTE="EastTNHunter, post: 5783494, member: 8364"] Listen, I’m as a big of a Dawgs fan as there is, but there is an element of “luck” if you will to any championship season. The 4th down voodoo that Bama has performed over the past couple of games defies logic, but it keeps happening. Just part of it. Reminds me of Les Miles and LSU. Oh well… I wish that : -Bowers didn’t false start -The field goal hadn’t doinked out -The fumble inside the 15 hadn’t occurred, or that Bama had not recovered -The fourth down conversion catch had been reviewed (spoiler: there wasn't enough to overturn the on-field call) Were there some bad calls/no-calls against my Dawgs? Sure (blatant face mask on the RB right in front of the ref, Terion Arnold draping all over receivers all night, the “horse collar” tackle that wasn’t), but that happens every game, and Bama fans could probably point out a few that went the other way. But they all DID happen. And UGA should have executed better on all of those, and you have to deal with bad calls every game just as much as errors by your own team. That’s football. Remember all of the luck that UT needed in 98? -The narrow Syracuse game -The Arkansas fumble at the end of the game -FSU being on their backup quarterback in the Championship game… now doesn’t that sound familiar? Are many Bama fans classless, arrogant, and rude? Yes they are. But I’ve also been contacted by numerous classy ones that were actually quite sympathetic after the game and selection, so it’s really just the vocal minority like a few on this site that weren’t raised any better. I’ve given kudos to [USER=12919]@Bamamonts[/USER] on more than one occasion, and his class has been the kind of reaction that I have received from most of the Bama fans that I call friends (many of which actually went to UA), so I won’t let my red glasses get in the way of my judgment about how the outcomes didn’t go my way. My team (no, not THAT kind of “my team”) lost. It sucks, but life goes on. [/QUOTE]
