[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 679546, member: 4572"] You’re absolutely right. Beating UGA doesn’t make a season great by itself. But is it okay to have “panties in a twist” when Tech goes 6-12 in conference [I]and [/I]loses to UGA. It’s not about “little brother syndrome.” If Tech was winning 8+ conference games consistently, winning 20+ overall and going to the tourney at least once every couple of years the UGA game [I]would [/I]be pretty irrelevant. Of course there would be some rumblings about how we should be beating Georgia, but if the program was otherwise successful it wouldn’t raise more than a few eyebrows. As it stands though, Georgia’s program is more successful than Tech. Over the decade Georgia had more 20 win seasons, more NCAAT appearances, more NIT appearances, more winning seasons, more winning conference records, and dominated the in state rivalry. If Tech had dominated the rivalry but still couldn’t field tourney teams, it wouldn’t matter. [I]Or [/I]if Tech was more successful outside of the rivalry it wouldn’t matter. So not only is Tech being dominated in the rivalry, it’s being dominated in nearly every statistic (including recruiting). To act like it’s no big deal in terms of perception is way off base in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
