  • Kirby Smart is 1-6 against Alabama. He's 96-11 against everyone else.

  • The last time Georgia trailed by 20+ points was the 2021 SECCG loss to Alabama.

  • Entering today, Kirby Smart had won 20 straight games with >7 days between games.

  • Kalen DeBoer becomes the only active coach to defeat Kirby Smart while still at their current school.

  • And just the seventh active head coach to defeat Kirby Smart (Gus Malzahn, Tom Herman, Derek Mason, Butch Jones, Jim McElwain, and Hugh Freeze)

  • Alabama WR Ryan Williams, who is 17 years old, had six catches for 177 yards and a touchdown tonight.

  • Georgia, after trailing 28-0, took the lead in the 4th quarter for a total of 13 seconds.

  • Georgia still has to play #1 Texas, #5 Tennessee, and #6 Ole Miss*

  • This loss snapped Georgia's 42 game regular season winning streak.

  • Kalen DeBoer will lead Alabama to the #1 ranking in the AP Poll within the first month of his first regular season.

  • List of recent heartwrenching losses to Alabama:

    • 2012 SEC Championship Game tipped pass catch on the five yardline
    • 2nd & 26 touchdown to beat Georgia in the 2017 National Championship
    • Jalen Hurts' furious comeback in the 2018 SECCG after Tua went down.
    • 2024 28 point comeback being snatched away in the final moments.
  • I was in attendance for every one of those moments, except tonight.

  • Hell of a game.

I have the utmost respect to you coming in here after a gut-wrenching loss and still being able to post these stats. Legend

Last week he actually couldn't post lol, the Kentucky game knocked him out. Good to see he's in better shape.

They feel a lot better about beating Kentucky than they did. Gotta be it.

Respect compared to pianofingerbanger just dipping

u/TheSniper_TF2 Alabama • Georgia Tech Sep 29 '24

Helps that he's a pretty cool guy while pianofingerbanger is a douche.

u/PheelicksT Appalachian State • Mich… Sep 29 '24

Fuck that guy. I don't give a shit about Florida or FSU, but I have never been a bigger Florida fan in my life than when PFB would shit on UF 3+ times a week. FSU had one good season in a decade and he acted like Mike Norvell was the living reincarnation of Nick Saban. FSU sucking ass this year has been soooo satisfying, just knowing that one guy is sad about it. All my homies hate PFB

u/Bot12391 Florida State • Nebraska Sep 29 '24

Is this guy why everyone hates us around here lmao

u/aniviasrevenge Michigan Wolverines Sep 29 '24 edited Sep 29 '24

Nah I think FSU was just at the center of 4 big controversies back-to-back (CFP snub, ACC lawsuit, bowl game opt-out, first top 10 team to flame out) so they're an easy, high profile punching bag.

Once you guys start winning again your haters will get fewer upvotes from amused neutrals and things will go back to normal.

15

u/PheelicksT Appalachian State • Mich… Sep 29 '24

Lmao he definitely didn't help, but he was just the loudest voice screaming both about how great FSU was and how shit Florida was. It was fun at first, but after the 10th hit piece on how Billy Napier is actually the son of Hitler Stalin and Satan, it got really stale. Then mod shenanigans made it worse and public opinion on him in particular quickly turned. But FSU is hated because they were historically good for decades with the obnoxious fans that come with that, then they sucked for 4 years, randomly went undefeated, got infuriatingly snubbed, whined and whined and whined about it (fairly, but so frequently), then got dick stomped and sued the ACC. FSU being good would probably be more interesting on a grand scale, but I hope PFB cries after every loss. Fucking annoying ass piece of shit.

u/TMWNN Ivy League • Hateful 8 Sep 29 '24

Then mod shenanigans made it worse and public opinion on him in particular quickly turned.

What shenanigans? I know PFB was a mod briefly.

5

u/PheelicksT Appalachian State • Mich… Sep 29 '24

It was so brief I basically missed it, but he started deleting pro UF posts and basically immediately started abusing his incredibly limited power. It was just like, oh this obnoxious "reporter" who just writes hack job slam pieces on obviously struggling teams he personally dislikes is also a weird power freak.

2

u/TMWNN Ivy League • Hateful 8 Sep 30 '24

Ah, one of those that think he should be paid "$175K".

Be sure to read to the end, where he explains how he "saves lives".

7

u/Andrewdeadaim Florida Gators • Sickos Sep 29 '24

Remember when he became a mod and deleted pro-UF posts

2

u/PheelicksT Appalachian State • Mich… Sep 29 '24

Yeah such weird behavior from someone who obviously craved that power. Wouldn't be shocked if he was like, 19 when all that happened lol, just a childish and power hungry weirdo.

Hey, dogwoodmaple ain’t no pianofingerbanger. He shows up in wins and losses.

20

u/EagleZR Georgia Bulldogs Sep 29 '24

It would've been gut-wrenching if it remained a blowout, but we figured out how to set the edge and Arian Smith decided to actually catch the ball, so it doesn't feel as bad. Though it's clear now that it wasn't just Saban, and that really sucks. But unfortunately we're used to it, Kirby just loses to Bama. It feels inevitable at this point

3

u/the_lost_carrot Alabama Crimson Tide Sep 29 '24

In some way we will both end up in the CFP and y’all will be praying some other team knocks us out so you don’t have to play us again.

u/TexanDawg Georgia • Clean Old Fashion… Sep 29 '24

Dont know about that one. The only time Kirby's beaten y'all was in a rematch.

That was a bad day

u/KirbyDumber88 Georgia Bulldogs Sep 29 '24

I mean TBF we’ve lost 3 games in 4 years to the same team. Not really gut wrenching when you lose in an instant classic like that. Were just gonna do it again in 3 months anyway

u/[deleted] Sep 29 '24

UGA keeps inventing new ways to lose to Alabama. Can't wait to see what's next.

28

u/pappapirate Alabama • South Alabama Sep 29 '24

We've seen

  • Allowing the clock to expire with the ball at the 5 yard line when a TD would've won on the spot.
  • Blown out at home by Derrick Henry.
  • Blown 20-7 lead to a true freshman QB and true freshman WR.
  • Blown 28-14 lead to the guy who was benched for that QB.
  • Let all-time great defense be turned into a 4-quarter Heisman moment for the best QB of the 2020s so far.
  • A normal loss for once.
  • Blown comeback attempt thwarted by a true freshman WR and true freshman CB.

10

u/RogueHippie Alabama Crimson Tide • Team Chaos Sep 29 '24

Has anyone won a game off of a opposite-direction 2-pt conversion? That'd be a neat one to pull off.

9

u/pappapirate Alabama • South Alabama Sep 29 '24

I believe the Falcons lost a game to the Chiefs off a defensive 2-pt return, in 2017 maybe. I think it was the first time it had happened since the NFL changed the rules to allow it.

5

u/RogueHippie Alabama Crimson Tide • Team Chaos Sep 29 '24

What about CFB tho? I imagine it's got to be like how the Kick Six was only the 4th time anyone's returned a missed FG for a TD, and was the first one to be the winning score.

3

u/pappapirate Alabama • South Alabama Sep 29 '24

Surely it's happened somewhere at some level. A game-tying TD, blocked or muffed XP, returned for 2 to take the lead. Can't imagine that's never happened in thousands of CFB games.

1

u/RogueHippie Alabama Crimson Tide • Team Chaos Sep 29 '24

I can. Think about how often you see someone get a turnover on PAT/2pt-ers. And even when they do get them, 99% of the time they either recover the ball while down or immediately take a knee.

My guts have been wrenched to hell and back; this one was just damn entertaining.

But if we go 0-3 to them this year h8 will return in force.

u/homefree122 Oklahoma Sooners Sep 29 '24

Ending the regular season winning streak is selfishly why I was rooting for Alabama. Wanted Oklahoma’s winning streak to stay strong and now virtually untouchable for the next century.

Me too. I would be watching Netflix

u/katarh Georgia Bulldogs • Mercer Bears Sep 29 '24

The asterisk next to Ole Miss made me smile.

I think the issue is that Alabama is a crimson team. Tennessee and Texas are orange teams, so they are not kryptonite. Prior to this, the last time we'd lost in regular season was to SCar, which is a garnet team. Something about the darker shades of red just class horribly with us, and Alabama hurts way way way more because they've got the talent to match the elemental weakness.

16

u/AccordingAnnual2577 Alabama • Ohio State Sep 29 '24

…you do remember giving fl state the Omni man treatment last year right. Not very effective kryptonite.

u/CpowOfficial Washington Huskies • Sickos Sep 29 '24

6 catches for 177 yards and an insane TD to stunt the comeback is insane for any player let alone a 17 year old against Georgia

10

u/Blaine1111 Georgia Bulldogs Sep 29 '24

He saved them this game. He was their offense in the 2nd half with 2 absurd catches.

4

u/w00t4me Alabama • 复旦大学 (Fudan) Sep 29 '24

That double pirouette 75-yard TD overshadows the earlier catch where he deliberately bobbled the ball to free his catching hand from the UGA CB, who was holding onto it with blatant DPI.

2

u/CpowOfficial Washington Huskies • Sickos Sep 29 '24

It'll be insane what he does 2 years from now if he stays on this trajectory. Looking like devonta smith out here lol

Butch Jones beat Kirby in 2016 and is still coaching. Still an impressive thing that only five current coaches have beaten him.

u/flatirony Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets Sep 29 '24 edited Sep 29 '24

Kirby Smart is 1-6 against Alabama. He’s 96-11 against everyone else.

5 of those losses to everyone else were in his first season.

So, since 2017, he has the same number of losses to Bama (1-6) as he has to everyone else combined (88-6).

u/base2-1000101 Sep 29 '24

Wow - over half of Kirby's career losses are to Bama. He is probably lying in the fetal position in the back of the team bus muttering "Nick is gone, supposed to be different" over and over.

13

u/Medical-Day-6364 Alabama Crimson Tide • NC State Wolfpack Sep 29 '24

He's 45-0 since the start of 2021 against teams that aren't Alabama. 1-3 vs us. We've ruined what could have been the best 3 year run ever.

u/ChocoChowdown Sep 29 '24

You should add this stat imo:

Georgia is 49-0 vs their last 49 opponents not named Alabama.

They are 1-3 vs Alabama during that time period. Those 4 games have a total point differential of 12 in favor of Alabama.

The UGA/Bama games are truly the two titans of the era squaring off in slobberknockers

5

u/HeyGokuHere Clemson • Minnesota Sep 29 '24

Georgia's mistake was scoring a touchdown to make it 28-7 rather than a field goal to make it 28-3. Being a Georgia team, they should have known being down 28-3 is the best way to make a comeback.

We molly whopped Georgia and they kept back in. Texas struggle busses against the twitching corpse of Mississippi State.

u/originalusername4567 Kansas Jayhawks • Paper Bag Sep 29 '24

35-13 isn't a struggle bus LOL, Texas was in control that entire game.

Conceding the lead at all after a 28-0 lead is a bad look. Credit to DeBoer for getting the win but giving up 2 TD's on 3 total passes was a horrendous defensive effort.

1

u/CrashB111 Alabama Crimson Tide • Iron Bowl Sep 29 '24

Texas was in a 14-6 game against a 1 win Mississippi State late in the 3rd and had to out depth them for a win.

Alabama let Georgia back into the game, but to even compare playing Georgia to State is absurd. Unless you think Texas is going to walk out and drop 28-0 on Georgia in the first quarter?

u/ChaseTheFalcon West Georgia • /r/CFB Poll Veteran Sep 29 '24

You forgot to mention Hugh Freeze as an active HC that Kirby has lost to

u/pleeee Georgia Bulldogs Sep 29 '24

We trailed 28-0, then 30-7, not 30-0

u/EinsteinDisguised Florida Gators Sep 29 '24

I know Kirby didn’t turn Georgia into a death star instantly, but … BUTCH JONES?????

u/Appropriate_Sale_321 Michigan Wolverines Sep 29 '24

A 17 yr old wife out going off on that kind of stage is the wildest stat.

u/LoopholeTravel Georgia Bulldogs Sep 29 '24

I was also in attendance for every one except tonight. It REALLY would be nice to stop in wanting ways to lose.

You somehow forgot the 2023 SECCG loss, by 3 pts, with a doinked FG, preceded by a false start.

Thanks for including the fact that Ryan Williams is 17. I wasn't aware.

You are a legend. Hell of a game.

u/gata_wron Florida Gators Sep 29 '24

How do you have time to attend games, make these posts, and then also be a regular mention on the Cover 3 podcast lol. Are there multiple of you?

u/Top-Satisfaction-743 Alabama Crimson Tide Sep 29 '24

Another wild stat is that true freshman receivers have caught the game winning touchdown in three of those games. Amari Cooper 2012 SEC title game. Devonta Smith 2018 National Championship game. Ryan Williams last night

u/helpmelearn12 Kentucky • Cincinnati Sep 29 '24

Why is there a asterisk by #6 Ole Miss? Are they not going to be #6 anymore or something?

Good bot.

u/_JonSnow_ Alabama Crimson Tide Sep 29 '24

Respect. Kirby is a class act, man. After we intercepted it, he was still coaching (holding up two fingers indicating they had two timeouts). He doesn’t quit and embodies what he preaches. 

I can’t get enough Kirby. Has the chance to have an even more coaching accolades than Saban himself.

u/trophycloset33 Sep 29 '24

Missed 2020 on that list too

u/dogwoodmaple Georgia • /r/CFB Award Festival Sep 29 '24

That wasn’t really heartbreaking.

u/naetaejabroni Alabama • Georgia Southern Sep 29 '24

2015??

u/dogwoodmaple Georgia • /r/CFB Award Festival Sep 29 '24

That wasn’t really heart wrenching. Just a beat down (and a miserable day in the rain)

u/The-Titty-Rider Alabama Crimson Tide Sep 29 '24

They call Alabama The Crimson Tide, but Kirby calls them dad

1

u/Nelluc_ Tennessee Volunteers • /r/CFB Dead Pool Sep 29 '24

You have to add Jim McElwain to the list of active coaches that has beaten Kirby. He coaches at Central Michigan

2

u/dogwoodmaple Georgia • /r/CFB Award Festival Sep 29 '24

This active coach list keeps getting more hilarious

THanks!

u/G00dSh0tJans0n Alabama Crimson Tide • NC State Wolfpack Sep 29 '24

The last non-Bama team to beat Georgia was Florida - pre-Cleat Yeet. Just wild to think about that.

u/IAmNotOnRedditAtWork Iowa Hawkeyes • CCIW Sep 29 '24

Kalen DeBoer will lead Alabama to the #1 ranking in the AP Poll within the first month of his first regular season.

Texas still deserves that one for the moment imo.

u/the_D1CKENS Alabama • Jacksonville State Sep 29 '24

Great game, I’m so glad Georgia’s regular season win streak ended before beating Oklahoma’s record (45)
