Thanks. I thought when they left. GT had several more than that. I could be wrong

Funny, that's prolly still more than 1/2 the current members of the SEC and we got out in 1964.

Yeah, we're right behind Auburn who has 8.

Edit: Ole miss has 6, I was mistaken.

irrelevant

I wonder, with their record vs us since 1964, if ugag might have more sec championships if they had not been so stupid to fight us getting back in the sec?

UGA and GT played four decades of serious football before the SEC existed. There were the SIAA (1896-1920) and Southern (1921-1932) Conferences before the SEC was formed in 1933.

Per Wiki, UGA has 2 SIAA championships and 13 SEC championships. GT has 5 SIAA championships, 3 Southern championships, 5 SEC championships and 3 ACC championships. That gives them 15 and us 16.

(I'm sure this puts me in the minority, but I don't feel like '98 was much of a championship since we lost head-to-head to FSU.)

I count 98 because those are the rules just as they were for many of the other championships we and others have won. I have a real hard time calling the 2012 Coastal champs when we weren’t. Miami was going to the game and then decided not to. Calling us Coastal champs seems wrong to me when we simply weren’t.

Definitely. These numbers include 2009.

I don’t know, not all co-championships are created alike. In the old days not all conference teams played one another, so undefeated co-champs were fairly common. Unlike that, in 1998 we not only lost a conf game but we lost it to the other Co-champ, which is why they went to the bigger bowl. I mean, were we Division co-champs in 2008? I wouldn’t say so.

I think the ACC changed the rules when they went to a championship game.

So you think they are smart?

If they had not been so stupid and allowed their game vs us to count as a conference game by voting to get us back in. (Although I think they were allowed to count it as an sec game 64 & 65 but not sure)

People are objecting because if we were still in the SEC this series looks totally different. We wandered in the wilderness of Independence and the years when the ACC was FSU and the seven dwarfs. Put us back in the SEC for the past 50 years and our recruiting, media coverage, public perception, etc., is quite different.
