Former Florida TE Ben Troupe brutally trolls Georgia when asked about Tom Brady's longevity
The Florida-Georgia rivalry is one of the most intense rivalries in the SEC. Even players who haven’t been in college for 20 years or more are still heavily invested.
On Monday, former Florida TE Ben Troupe, a member of the Gators’ 2000 SEC title-winning team and a first-team All-SEC player in 2003, brutally trolled the Bulldogs in a question that wasn’t even about Georgia.
Per ESPN’s Christian Goeckel, Troupe trolled the Dawgs’ lack of titles when asked about Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Tom Brady appearing in Super Bowls in 3 separate decades:
Tom Brady will play in a Super Bowl in 3 separate decades.
I asked @BenTroupe84 what’s one thing he’s done in 3 separate decades.
His answer: “Seen Georgia not win a national championship.”

Georgia, of course, hasn’t won a national championship since 1980 — something rival schools won’t let Bulldog fans forget. The Gators most recently won a title in 2008.
Troupe played in the NFL from 2004 to 2008 with the Tennessee Titans, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Oakland Raiders.
Trolls? Yea.. Brutal? No… Good for Ben for keeping the disdain for his rival. We wouldn’t want it any other way!
Go Dawgs!
Lol. Funny.
Hmm, you know who also never won a national title?
Ben Troupe.
Also, georgia mens basketball.
If you care about basketball I guess that means something, but there’s a reason basketball arenas are so much smaller than football stadiums.
Whatever floats your boat. LMAO!
Bristol Motor Speedway and a few other tracks hold more fans by half than the biggest football stadiums. Must be because NASCAR is more popular, right? The largest NFL stadiums hold less than the largest college stadiums. I guess more people watch college football, right?
You do recognize that all 32 teams are playing on the same field at the same time in NASCAR, yes? So to answer your question 200 teams playing 100 games in 100 different locations on any given Thursday-Friday-Saturday, and sometimes Wednesday in the Mountain Conference…most definitely more people watch college football…
Also, georgia mens basketball…
And Bama, and Auburn, and LSShoe, and Vandy, and Tenn, and Mizz, and Ms, and MS St, and aTm, and SC
I recognize it has been a nasty fall since Urban hurt his heart in swampland and your team passed irrelevant on the way to mediocre’ville, but we ARE still a football conference…followed by women’s equestrian
I guess mediocre’ville was a tough town to visit this year at the Cocktail party?
I’m quite content with how we finished out the season, how about you?
Humpy, I’m satisfied with how we took Bama to the last play. Showed a lot of heart after nobody gave us a chance.
I said a few weeks ago, if I had to choose between our 2 seasons, I would take winning the east and thumping our main sec rival every time. If you don’t win the sec, at least you get more bragging rights than a meaningless bowl win.
Troupe only had four years. UGA has had over 40.
Nice of you to pile on. Well, LSU once went 45 years without one. So, I guess there is hope.
So easy to forget that thing called documented history…45 years it was! To the Barns credit, You know why you seldom hear warbuzzard fans throw out that 40 year sling? documents show 57 years and two extra large suitcases of Cam cash for them wasn’t it?
HahhAHHAhahhahhHA good one marine
LMAO at the UT complete train wreck that has turned into a even worse. UT is a complete laughing stock of CFB. At least you finally got the rid of the village idiot Fulmer.
Point is…UF…the school he played for and excelled at a high standard with great results and awards… has three National Titles since1980. UGA…zero. Zilch. Nada. Not one former TE does. Not any of all those UGA 5-star TE recruits do.
Naw, the point is the UF teams he played for lost 16 games in 4 seasons and no national titles…zero zilch nada
Troupe should have left the trolling to Aaron Hernandez…oh wait, he can’t
I think it’s funny the way we (i.e., older traditional CFB fans) place so much emphasis on the past. What matters nowadays in the game is attracting the best players, and there’s not a HS kid alive who has any clear memory of the Gators as national champions.
The question should not be who has the most recent natty from which past decade, but who is more likely to get the next one. Ask for that bet in Vegas and see where the odds fall.
Whatever makes you feel better…I guess…
Mountain you sure are stretching for a narrative. I’m an old dude and have no recollection of a puppy National title
I do, I was there…you being a Gator fan may never have heard of this concept but we did it with this thing called a running game and this other thing called defense…it was epic!
It is ironic that your offense is dying by that same one deminsional running game in 2021…
What you should recognize as a student of the game is, isn’t it scary that maybe, just maybe, Kirby gets it and is bringing UGa out of old man 3 yards and a cloud of dust football and into the 21st century fun n gun spread em and shread em offensive game that forced Saban to change to compete? I’m thinking I’d be quite worried if my humpers are able to take that next step of modernality, don’t you? I mean, with all that available elite talent Kirby has been hoarding, and with that elite OC creativity that Monken showed flashes of in 2020, it would terrify me that the 2021 version of the Humpers ain’t gonna be your daddy’s version of DooleyDawgs no more…
While we are on the subject of one dimensional, congratulations and best wishes to your new RB Emory Jones…
Yea… Georgia has all the recruiting Natty’s and Vegas says most talented teams… NEVER TO WIN A TITLE IN 41 years !!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a headline story here? Pathetic. The Dawgs are in the Gators head so badly its ridiculous. Is it because they know last year was a one off? . The Gator fans who run this board have Kirby Stress Disorder.
Hey, with the backwards slide Kirby is on this may not be a big discussion next offseason. At this rate Kirby may be like 6-6 in two or three seasons.
Went from choking a natty to choking a SEC championship to choking against UF. You’ve only gotten WORSE every year!
If you truly believe that then you just proved my point. You guys are more worried about Dawgs than your own sorry situation. I think Granthams D just let in another TD. Your coach is a head case. Its awesome to see u lizards squirm
1980
Nutz , your post makes zero sense. Puppies in Gators heads? Look at yourself here on a Gator article. Do you see Gators constantly on puppy articles??? NO.
Delusional to the max. What a crock of excrement
brutally trolls Georgia in the title yet…you figure this is a gator article, interesting, not like it makes a f…
1906
That is why you bulldog leg humpers are always posting on Gator articles… this is the first one that had anything to do with loser bulldogs… I saw you critized LSU… They played a hell of an inspirational game and beat us (they get all the credit)… but we kicked you sorry bulldogs all over the cocktail party… 44-28?
When your mother puts you on the merry go round and says go sit in the corner, you know she’s kidding, right?
12-1 1996
13-1 2006
13-1 2008
13-1 2017
What is the only difference between all these records? 3 of them did not require another game…nuff said, Ben. Enjoy your 9-4 2002-2003 championship rings
1980 nuff said. The curse rolls on. The sad part is deep down inside UGA fans know they are cursed. Like the Cubs in baseball. It has now officially become a thing. I hope yall get one though. Maybe it will get yall off our comments section.
At least you didn’t go with the 86 year curse of the Bambino…like the Cubs and Sox, this too will pass…in the meantime, CFP stands for college football playoff…still, nuff said
With 41 years in the books… only 45 more and you will be at 86…
Should be about the same time you get released from AlachuaDC for good behavior, perhaps we can celebrate together
“I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.” Thomas Jefferson.
Wasn’t he one of the biggest slave owners? Talking about the past…..
This attitude is why Thomas Jefferson never won another football game.
NAY NAY – whinny whinny G8rBitz…not true at all.
Thomas Jefferson won its fifth state championship. Jersey Shore won tremendous statewide respect. Conner Murga broke up a fourth-down pass from the 21-yard line on the game’s final play as THOMAS JEFFERSON held off the furious rally and captured ANOTHER state championship, edging Jersey Shore, 21-14…
Next thing you’ll try to BS us with is that UF leads the all time football series with UGa 22-9…
Haha Did he really play football? Man you are old!
Thomas Jefferson must have been a bulldog and not won in 41 years… keep dreaming little fellow…
Taking into account UGA’s history in your lifetime, I imagine your dreams are better…
LMAO..
BamaTampon
pssst, you’re leaking again
Pssst, UGA win another year without winning a NC….

“Seen Georgia not win a National Championship”
putting that UF education to work!!!
Dumba$$, do you really want to go down that road? Shouldn’t you be shining your imaginary pre-season trophy? You’re an idiot.
WOW… 41 YEARS, that is 4 decades… lol… It has been THAT long??
The way Bulldog fans talk crap you would think they have won more National Titles than Alabama!! Bulldogs are LOSERS and leghumper is a LOSER…
loser or not…I certainly own you. For you I recommend risperidone.
Haha, truth hurts, uga sucks in every major sports…oh I forgot, not even in the same league as Florida when it comes to academics and brain…theis fans of leghumper and crotch of Urban Meyer!!! college of losers since 1980!keep on barking poodles!!!
Theis fans? LOL, Nothing more perfect than to belittle another team with how magnificent your team’s great academics are only to drive home your point by misspelling such a simple word as these…woof…another swing and a miss poppy
Sick burn, Mr Troupe. Did you play in the league after Gainesville? I don’t recall ever hearing about you and lost track.
Looks like Troupe played for 5 years and had over a thousand receiving yards in the NFL. Tell us how many yards one of GAs national title winning TEs have had in the NFL in the last 40 years :)
Uhh Sparkyg8r…hate to interrupt but…You have heard of 15 year New England Patriot veteran and Super Bowl winner Benjamin Seth Watson have you not?
Couple of others that come to mind – Orson Charles, Leonard Pope, Randy McMichael, Clarence Kay…hope that helps
More directly to your question…if I just pick one – Kay alone had around 2200 yards in 9 seasons, and he was only 6’2″ tall, not bad…
Looks like you guys shut up Sparky’s ignorant a$$ about UGA tight ends.
You UGly fans want to explain to me which one of those TEs you named won a national title as I asked?
Certainly not Ben Troupe, your point?
But to your point I’ll stick with Door numero tres…Clarence Kay 9 years, Denver Broncos and 1980 UGa National Championship, next question please?
Norris Brown got drafted also but didn’t do much, couple of game with the Vikes, injured and done
Hello…sparky? Did I win the contest? Kay is my final answer, lock it in…
Troupe is posting crap like this because is looking for a job and hope’s a UF alum will hire him just based on him being a UF player. Pathetic.
