you think uga is 1?

 

yep why not?  we have the better resume.. we have 2 top 30 wins (1 top 4) and bama has zero.. in fact they have played a pretty average schedule.  even fsu has shown they have some major issues and were way overranked in the preseason.

no reason to doubt you. I just didn't think we had a shot at being no. 1. I know it doesnt make a hill of beans right now, but it makes for good internet fodder. 

 

Kirby will earn his money over the next 2 months if we are no. 1. Keeping this team focused on the task at hand has got to be tough. 

seeing his reactions and anger on the sidelines while winning by 30+ points, i don't know that will be an issue.

Okay the first rankings come out tomorrow night.. predict where they will rank teams..Here is my prediction:  

1. UGA

2. Alabama

3. Ohio State 

4. Notre Dame

I agree but I think they are going to rank Alabama number one because the committee will get "Bama" the ranking due to name but not what it should be.  We will see.

i was just wondering if you thought of a reason why it shouldn't/wouldn't happen.  if the committee does what it says it does which is rank teams based on their body work instead of the name on their jersey i don't see how they don't put uga #1.. there are 4 undefeated teams in bama, uga, wisconsin, and miami that have a shot at the playoff.  of those teams the team with the best win is UGA against notre dame on the road with a true frosh qb making his first start.  then we also have a win against a top 30 msu team that wasn't even close.  bama doesn't have any top 30 wins as i said earlier.  also on top of that we have also looked the part.  in games when we play lower competition we are killing them.  now if the committee is full of crap and it's about brand more than actually substance then bama will be the #1 team.

as i told joefalco it depends on if they are honest in what they are doing or whether they are lying to everyone.  there isn't anyone that can look at each team's body of work and come away that bama has a better one than UGA.  this is a new playoff committee.. a lot of new members have replaced once that were there from the very beginning so we will see if they are just about brand or whether they are about on the field performance.

How interesting would it be if Bama, Notre Dame and UGA all make the playoff and we have the possibility of seeing two rematches?

Oof... that there would be ugly... particularly if in any of those situations, the loser of the previous round wins the second... potential for lots of heartburn on that one (see: LSU 2011-12 season).

Valid points. 

 

Man, to even be in this conversation right now is so refreshing. i was getting tired of being out of the discussion by now. 

It was a little worrisome seeing Franks drive the ball up the field on us in the 2nd quarter. However, i am loving the second half adjustments we are doing. Kirby and staff seem to be unafraid to change the gameplan based on the situation. Really fun to watch. 21-0 at halftime i wasnt worried all that much. i kept thinking if it had been 3-5 years ago i would be worried like crazy. but this team loves the 3rd quarter.
