Just being objective. The evidence is there. Ole Sleepy Nick is slipping fast.

Nick has lost one game. This sure is a lot of bluster for a state infamous for Sparty'ing but doing so with incredible talent.
Kirby ascending to the King of CFB and Saban deteriorating are not mutual exclusive notions.

For hypothetically winning his first against the worst CFB field since 2007.

Let me know when that actually happens and you can measure against the Bayou Bungler.

When you win every other year for 15 years, then you can ask for a seat at Nick's table.

I'm not mentioning the other clown that Kirby isn't close to catching yet.

1 S-E-C championship, 1 playoff appearance, 1-1 playoff record, no NC, no undefeated seasons, and you're ready to elevate him to king? Just a tad premature, don't you think?
Then again, I forgot to factor in the S-E-C delusion factor.

Put it this way. A few weeks ago, I was grabbing breakfast at a cafe in Mobile, AL. I overheard ALL of the Bama fans there talking about how scared they were to play UGA in the SECCG.

That should answer your question.

You don't understand my question enough to think you've answered it. But you have.

So far. He'll likely lose to Auburn in the regular season as well. Plus he barely beat two pathetic 5-loss programs (fLLLLLorida & LLLLLsu) by a combined total of 8 points. For perspective, many Ohio State fans were upset that the Buckeyes only beat an underachieving, but gritty, Nebraska team by 9 points yesterday (and Nebraska would DESTROY both fLLLLLorida & LLLLLsu right now). You've heard of moral victories? The fact that the score was so close against those two pathetic programs is a moral defeat in my book.

Which clown?

Are you referring to the clown that Kirby Kirbstomped in Charlotte earlier this year?

You are correct that it's not worth mentioning because with a 43-18-4 all time record against them, UGA fans do not consider beating Clemsux to be a worthwhile accomplishment that's worth mentioning.

Only programs the caliber of NC State and Pitt think that beating Clemsux means something.

Again, if your gambit is to establish that Kirby couldn't hang for 5 years, but old age was what hypothetically fixed the imbalance, have at it.

2 losses = Kirby's best season across the last 5 years
2 losses = Nick's result 1 time in the past 6 season
5 = number of times Bama played for a NC.
5(0) = the number Tua was standing near when Georgia inexplicably let him throw a bomb to win the NC.
Yet only Nick's second season like that in 7 years.Which would be his 2nd such season in 7 years.
Meanwhile Kirby has yet to lose less than two.

I didn't call it a 2007 field for nothing.

Yes that one. The one Georgia "stomped" by 1 score with some truly hideous offense against a defensive coordinator whose schtick is up.

A margin nearly identical to NC State and worse than Pitt.

Your logic and statistics are sound. However past performance is not indicative of future results.

In the present, Kirby is undefeated. Nick may have 2 losses by the time he makes it to Atlanta (if he even makes it there), and he'll certainly will have 3 once Kirby does to Nick what Nick did Urban back in 2009.

Three losses would put Alabama at a solid #4 in the playoffs...

The company spinning that narrative isn't going to stop doing it no matter how well the rest of the B1G does in bowl games. They may change tactics a bit but the overall marketing strategy will remain. Promote the SEC brand because it drives dollars and they have a financial interest in the realization of that strategy.

Gonna go out on a limb here with no facts or research to say that the SEC footprint is probably the poorest in the nation. Chasing dollars there isn't a smart, long-term strategy.
