Georgia vs Alabama

[OrangeVolMan]

Texas would have multiple losses if they played Alabama's schedule

Nope. Look at Alabama schedule and tell me who they would have lost to. LSU would have been the only close game. Not including UGA because not regular season.

Not leaving out a team with Georgia's resume. Looks like FSU and Texas and UW fights it out for one spot.

Bye Bye Gary, won’t miss that blowhard.

I just woke up from a nap and checked scores. Damn it, Georgia! You had one job to do!

 

[DarkVolder]

7 SEC titles in 10 seasons...

Bastards

Saban has won 9 at Bama and 11 total counting his two at LSU

Ohio State got in last year and didnt make the conference game.

over an undefeated power 5 conf champion?

I’m not sure what to say about this game. But I’m a somewhat active member here, and I enjoy Volnation so I kinda feel I should at least attempt to give my opinion on the game, being I’m a GA fan.

Honestly, I’m nervous about playing Bama. I’ve seen so many games that it looks like GA should or would win against Bama only to lose in the final minutes or seconds. Bama is good and Saban is an evil genius (or perhaps Satin himself) not sure! Kidding, but Saban has had our number almost every time.

As for the matchup, I honestly think GA has the advantage. The main point of emphasis will be the LOS. I think GA wins here overall and that will make a difference.

Who knows though? Milroe has improved his passing game and is always a threat to run. GA has had trouble defending running QBs so who knows?

In short, I honestly think GA will run right through Bama this weekend! But it’s a 60/40 feeling. A feeling you might call very hopeful but not extremely confident.

Bama probably gonna win.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

I don't believe that but I guess we'll see. It will be the sham of the century if you punish an undefeated team over an injury.

Get ready for it because it’s going to happen.

The committee is not going to say no to Nick Saban.

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

I think I’m more excited about the end of Gary Danielson than anything else.

Hooray! Our long national nightmare is over.

 

[Delmar]

Yea, he said Bama should be in no matter what essentially. Even over an undefeated FSU. The man can’t help but freaking worship Saban.

Yep, Gary couldn’t resist one last leg hump before bowing out. Did u hear the crowd when Sankey said let’s give CBS a cheer for the job they’ve done with the SEC. Nobody did and heard plenty of boos. Begone CBS. Nobody cares that you’re gone.

No all the undefeated power 5 teams were in. And the committed selected TCU over Bama because TCU was undefeated.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

Bye bye puppies

 

[Boston Vol]

But your original point was about looking like dog**** against bad teams, which they have. Has to go both ways

No the point is, FSU is playing without their star quarterback. Tonight gives the committee a second opportunity to see what FSU looks like without Jordan Travis. If they look bad, then that leaves the door open for the committee to leave them out. Saying that, despite the undefeated record, they aren’t one of the top four teams. It’s completely different with Milroe because the committee can obviously see that Alabama can beat top teams with Milroe at quarterback. It’s a completely different situation.

Michigan and Washington fill the top two if they let both Bama and Georgia in.

 

[Ned Ray McWorkher]

Wait do some of you want Bama to get in because of SEC or something?

"Want"? They earned it by winning this conference. No feelings involved. The SEC winner is in or then nobody should be in.

 

[DarkVolder]

God it’s been 26 years nearly since we last won the SEC

Well they had one loss in their conf championship game to a team they beat earlier in the year.

 

[IndianaVol]

Washington is in. Michigan should win. That leaves only 2. If Bama is in, Texas had better be there.

True. Slipped my mind Washington already winning.

Sucks for Florida St if they beat Louisville convincingly...and I retract my earlier statement. Even with Sankey pulling purse strings, don't see how 2 SEC teams make it this year.

Sounds like you want them in and will be pissed if they aren't. Weird.

 

[volfan102455]

This reminds me of all the talk last year about TCU not getting in when they were undefeated. At the end of it all TCU was in OVER bama.

 

[DarkVolder]

Say what you will about Gary Danielson but CBS always had a top notch production of SEC football games.

 

[Delmar]

No, they don’t. You don’t leave out an undefeated P5 team.

Put it this way. They never have.

 

[Manchester Vol]

They can, and they will do what the power brokers pay them to do. The decision is not theirs money will make the call.

That’s my point. Georgia shouldn’t get in over fsu if fsu wins their game.

 

[Rockytoptalker]

No the point is, FSU is playing without their star quarterback. If they play bad tonight, that would give the committee two games in which to judge what FSU looks like without Jordan Travis. It’s completely different with Milroe because the committee can obviously see that Alabama can beat top teams with Milroe at quarterback. It’s a completely different situation.

But *IF* FSU beats tonight, regardless of how they look, that’s a top 15 win for them with potentially a 3rd string quarterback starting. While QB is the most important position on the field, at the end of the day it is a team game, FSU’s solid in multiple areas.
