I would also point out that UGA, specifically, and the SEC in general, are about to get the toughest schedules you could get. Here is an example of our OOC and IC schedules for the years to come:
Out of Conference - OOC
2023 - @OU (canceled by SEC)
2024 - Clemson (Atl)
2025 - @UCLA
2026 - @Louisville, UCLA
2027 - @FSU, Louisville
2028 - FSU, @Texas (canceled by SEC)
2029 - @Clemson, Texas (canceled by SEC)
2030 - Clemson, tOSU
2031 - @tOSU, OU (canceled by SEC)
2032 - Clemson
2033 - @Clemson, NCState
2024 - @NCState
Starting in 2024, In Conference schedule - sample every other year 3-6-6 schedule (with the Nerds thrown in):
@Auburn, Florida, @Kentucky, GaTech | Alabama, @Oklahoma, Texas A&M, @Ole Miss, Mizzou, @South Carolina
Auburn, @Florida, Kentucky, @GaTech | @LSU, Texas, @Tennessee, Miss State, @Vandy, Arkansas
@Auburn, Florida, @Kentucky, GaTech | @Alabama, Oklahoma, @Texas A&M, Ole Miss, @Mizzou, South Carolina
Auburn, @Florida, Kentucky, @GaTech | LSU, @Texas, Tennessee, @Miss State, Vandy, @Arkansas
We would then have to win the SEC Championship game against the other top 2 in the SEC, and then 3-4 games against top 12 opponents.
Not concerned a bit about our OOC schedule this year.
