I was with Bianchi right up until he said Mullen was challenging Kirby on the recruiting trail. Sorry Mike, but no.

This is from an Athletic article about college football during the war, which really highlights the quality of that 1942 "championship:
By the fall of 1942, the realities of the war had sunk in: More than 50 colleges dropped football that year alone, and due to gas rationing and other transportation issues, attendance dropped 19 percent. When the world went to war, college football adapted to play...
More on the schools that took advantage of the situation (and showing how poor the team were in 1942 that they dropped the next year) and still deserve derision:
In 1943, generally considered the nadir for wartime football, more than 200 colleges dropped their football teams. Penn State lost 24 varsity players over the course of a single season. Entire conferences, like the SEC, were essentially wiped out. In the Big Ten, the teams with military training programs — Michigan, Purdue and Northwestern among them — largely overwhelmed the remainder of the conference (though Ohio State, devoid of military trainees, somehow managed to rebound and finish 9-0 in 1944 behind Heisman winner Les Horvath).
The balance of power in the sport reached peak weirdness in these years. In 1943, four military teams in addition to Army and Navy finished in the AP top 10, including Iowa Pre-Flight, which went 9-1 and lost to No. 1 Notre Dame (which had its own Naval training center on campus) on the road by a single point. The following week, Notre Dame suffered its only loss, to a team from the Great Lakes Naval Training Station (whose team would be coached by a former Ohio State coach and newly commissioned lieutenant, Paul Brown, in 1944).
Regarding the 1942 "championship" here's this blurb:
The first SEC winner of the Heisman Trophy, Sinkwich led Georgia to an 11-1 season in 1942, when the Bulldogs narrowly missed the AP national title behind Ohio State
They also didn't win the AP championship in 1946, though perhaps with a better claim. Either way, they are a lot like Bama in claiming either of these titles

So, your saying there's yet one more UGA male athlete taking a long rod from behind.

Wow. It’s moments like this you step back and realize there’s a lot more to life than just a football game.
We really need to be making fun of their Track & Field team at every chance as well.

Pole vault poles lay horizontally for storage. Who thinks sharp javelins need be stored like a viet cong death trap? And who's overseeing these field set-ups? UGa should be punished a few track schollies.

That's a pretty good comeback, and very true. That 2015 10 win team may have been one of the worst 10 win teams in the history of football college or pro. And until Smart can win the big games in December and January he will never be considered elite.

Honestly, despite the head to head, our 2015 10-win team probably deserves that honor. We were a safety away from being blanked at home, needed a last second FG to beat VU, went to OT against FAU, and outside of OM, were never more than a play away from a loss, while our imbecile head coach was casually talking about popcorn sales and fish.
Trust me. You guys may have seemed like the worst of the two that year, but that’s just because you generally suck at everything, are routinely the butt of most college football jokes and apparently can’t even do javelin practice without nearly killing someone.
Good to see you, btw.
