#1 vs #1

Two separate polls, so they won't market it like that, but they'll absolutely talk about it in pre-game and game commentary. AP poll is about to get tossed out the window for us and playoff poll is all that'll matter going forward as long as we take care of business Saturday. The rest of the season should become MARKEDLY easier and help solidify our spot, which is why we still need to beat the brakes off our remaining schedules

A 1-2 AP MATCHUP Georgia (8-0, 5-0 SEC) remained in the top spot in the latest Associated Press (AP) poll while Tennessee (8-0, 4-0 SEC) moved into a tie with Ohio State (8-0) for No. 2. This Saturday in Athens will be the 25th regular-season game where the top two teams in the AP poll square off, and the first such meeting between the Bulldogs and Volunteers. The Bulldogs have been No. 1 now for the past four weeks. The last time the Vols were as high as No. 2 came in 2001, and that year they would finish fourth.

The Georgia-Tennessee game will mark the 53rd all-time meeting (including postseason games) between the AP’s No. 1 and No. 2 squads since the poll began in 1936. The last 1-2 regular season games both involved Alabama and LSU. In 2019, the No. 1 Tigers beat No. 2 Alabama in Tuscaloosa and went on to win the SEC and national title. In 2011, top-ranked LSU outlasted No. 2 Alabama in overtime. However, the two would meet again for the BCS national championship, and the Crimson Tide won the rematch.

With Georgia being #1 in the AP, if we are ranked #1 in the Playoff rankings tomorrow, do they start marketing this game as the first ever #1 vs #1?

I think you could say that.

Game of the Millennium.

"It's a Kind of Magic" by Queen (and soundtrack from the "Highlander" film) is running through my head.....
